Activities

Under Start of the navigation path Invoicing Next navigation step Invoicing Processes Next navigation step Define Application Form End of the navigation path, define a unique key for each application form required for printing invoicing documents. The application form that you enter there has to belong to form class FICA_INVOICE and it must exist at least as a link in the given client. The hierarchy of the form class FICA_INVOICE contains the data of the invoicing document to which further print-relevant information can be added in event 2687. The system determines the application form during invoicing. Based on the invoicing process, the invoicing type and other parameters, you can control how the system determines the application form. The system stores the application form it determines in the correspondence container and in the header of the invoicing document. Optical archiving of invoices is possible as part of printing correspondence (see Optical Archiving of Documents).

Under Invoicing Processes, define the specifications for determining the application form. Here you define the determination of the application form for printing an invoicing document and the determination of a form ID for attached payment media. For dialog processing (for example, invoice preview), you can also define an alternative application form in this activity. This can be useful if the actual application form for mass printing only produces raw data for an external output management system, but the clerk in the SAP system should be able to display prepared print data in the invoice simulation.
