Default Documents

Definition

A document template that is assigned to a document when the document is created. Default documents can be passed from the Business Workplace to the appropriate PC application, for example, when the PC document is being created. Default documents can also be forms, for example.

Use

Default documents are required for technical reasons when a PC application expects a formatted transfer file. You can create several default documents for one PC application. This is recommended, for example, if several versions of the same application are used within the company.

You can also use default documents as company-specific layout templates and, in this way, offer users a selection of forms, for example, when they create SAPscript or Word documents.
