Frequent Changes for Device Types

Procedure

Customizing the title page. To do so, do the following:

  1. Copy the device type. Use references so that the device format actions reference the SAP standard device types.

  2. Do your customizing in the Title page action in the X_PAPER device format of the copied device type. If you want, you can override the default X_PAPER title page by defining Title page actions for other formats. For more information, see Maintaining Title Pages for Output Requests.

  3. Use your new device type in place of the SAP standard in Output device definitions in your SAP system. (See for example Connecting Printers Under Microsoft Windows).

Adding a format for a new paper size or for a list output format. To do so, do the following:

  1. Copy the device type. Use references so that the device format actions reference the SAP standard device types.

  2. Define a new page format, a new format, and a new device type format, to implement the new paper size or list output format. Use the copied device type format actions of a similar device type format to reduce the effort required to define the actions.

  3. The new paper size is available in the system when you enter it in the corresponding SAP script forms ( SAPscript Form Painter) and ABAP reports (REPORT specifications or statements of the type NEW PAGE PRINT ON LAYOUT).
