Set Label Printout (SAP Library - Inventory Management and Physical Inventory)

Set Label Printout

When entering a goods movement, output will be generated that can be printed on labels provided that the label type and label form have been maintained for the material.

Under the menu option "Print label," you complete the system settings for printing material document information on labels:

Maintain application object

For the application object, you define here the text ID, the text name, and the layout set for the label printout. You need the application object, in order to maintain the label text.

You do not maintain the label text in the layout set itself but use a separate function. Thus, the label text is transferred to all windows of the layout set.

Maintain label text

Here, you define the contents of the label text.

In the text, you can define variables from the following tables:

MKPF

MSEG

(only for goods receipts with reference to purchase order): EKKO, EKPO, EKAN, LFA1
(The vendor name can be defined as field $AM07M-NAME1$)

Example:
(The $ signs must be replaced by the & characters in the SAPscript editor)

Posting date $MKPF-BUDAT$
Material document $MKPF-MBLNR$
Material $MSEG-MATNR$
Plant/SLoc $MSEG-WERKS$ $MSEG-LGORT$

Maintain label types and label forms

Here, you define the valid label types and label forms.

Set determination of number of copies

The number of labels printed can depend on the quantity moved. Here, you define which quantity field is relevant for the calculation of the number of labels.

Requirements

The following SAPscript objects must already exist:

Application object in table TTXOB

Text ID for object in table TTXID

Layout set

Default settings

The following data has already been defined in the standard R/3 System:

Application object MM07ET

Text ID 7001 of the application object

Layout set RM07ETIKETT

SAP Recommendation

If you use the standard R/3 System, you need only maintain the label text.

If you want to use a new form, you must make sure that it uses the same element names as the standard layout set (for example, WIN1 to WIN8 for the window names).

Actions

1. Maintain the text ID, text name, and layout set for the application object.

2. Maintain the label text for the object.
If you have defined a customer-specific form, the standard form RM07ETIKETT is still displayed when you maintain the label text. But you can still use the format of the customer-specific form. This is output when you print the label text.
If you want to display the format of the customer-specific form when you maintain the label text, you have to change the table TTXOB (SAP table).

3. Maintain the valid label types.

4. Maintain the valid label forms.

5. Maintain for each label type and label form the quantity (no. of copies) field relevant for calculation of the number of labels.

Further information

You maintain the printers used for label printout under the menu option General settings.

You maintain the output types for label printout under the menu option Output determination.

Notes on transport

You can only transport the label text using the program RSTXR3TR.

All the other functions are linked to the automatic recording of changes.
