Description

This program helps the user to make the necessary system settings for message determination. If you want to use the message determination function in purchasing and your system was installed prior to release 2.0, we recommend that you first run this program. When the program has been run successfully, the message determination function operates in the same way as in the standard client.

The following dependencies are defined in the standard system:

• The system first searches for message data (printer, time of output/transmission, number of copies etc.) on the basis of the document type, purchasing organization and supplier.

• If this yields no data, a further search is made on the basis of the document type only. If no data is found here either, no automatic message is generated; that is, the document cannot yet be outputted at all. The document can only be outputted/transmitted when the message data has been maintained manually in the document.

You should thus proceed as follows:

1. First run the program in all clients in which you want to use the message determination function.
2. When this has been done successfully, maintain the message data on the basis of the access sequences described above. You will find this function in the basic purchasing menu under "Master data". Here you choose the function "Messages" and then maintain the necessary data for each purchasing document. When you have done this, the system should be able to find the message data automatically and present it as defaults in the document.

If you do not want to use the automatic message determination function, simply do not run this program. Everything will then run as before.

If you want to make the message data dependent on other criteria (e.g. on the purchasing group), specify new access sequences via the configuration menu and store them in the message determination schema for the relevant document. However, it is advisable to first start this program, in order to have a certain basic settings as a starting point. Only then should you make your desired adjustments.

The program can also be used to restore the standard settings after manual settings have been made which perhaps do not function as intended.

Requirements
