Test-Printing a Form (SAP Library - BC Style and Form Maintenance)

Test-Printing a Form

You can test a form without having to call the print program that uses it. Choose Utilities ® Test print. SAPscript presents the print selection screen so that you can pick the printer type for which the test print should be formatted.

The Test print function

Displays or prints all pages and text elements that are defined in the form.

Replaces system, standard, and text symbols with their current values. Program symbols are filled with a test value, the character X.

If you test print from the Form: Request screen, SAPscript uses the active version of a form for the test print. If you are currently editing a form, then SAPscript uses this edit version of the form for the test print.

Under certain conditions, texts may not be printed in Test print: This is the case, for example, when the name of a text in an INCLUDE statement is defined with a program symbol.
