Final Report – Ready-to-Ship Report (SBE) (SAP Library

Final Report – Ready-to-Ship Report (SBE)

Definition

You generate final reports (also known as "reports to be shipped" or "ready-to-ship reports") from a report (SBR). The system uses the following criteria to select the appropriate report:

The object for whose report application the report was created

If the report was created for the report application Specification master (object Specification), for example, the selection is made according to the specification.

The following report applications and objects exist as standard:

Report Application	Object
Specification master	Specification, agent
Material master	Material
Work area	Work area
Person affected	Accident event (comprises the key for the incident/accident log entry and the address number of the person involved)

The generation variant

The generation variant is assigned to the report template. The SAP System automatically determines all report applications for which symbols were created on the report template and assigns these report applications to the generation variant. Via the symbol group for symbols, function modules are defined in the IMG activity Specify Report Symbol Groups that determine default values for the parameter symbols of the report template when the final report is generated (see Default Parameters for Reports).

The language in which all phrases are already expanded in the report
The key date if you are using engineering change management

The SAP System expands all other data when it generates the final report. This data does not originate from the SAP component Product Safety but from other SAP components and completes the report. Data from other components may, for example, be:

Material data
Customer data
Data for the work area
Data for the person affected
Data for the injury/illness log
