BBP_TRIGGER_PO_COND - Condition-Dependent Document Output

In this activity, you specify conditions for outputting SRM documents for which action profiles and actions have already been defined.
This means that you can configure multiple output (serial processing) for certain documents, on basis of all the attributes that belong to the relevant business object.
Note that SRM does not support any start conditions (for example, Approval Required).

Note:
Alternatively, you can use BAdI BBP_OUTPUT_CHANGE_SF for flexible document output (applicable only in case of Smart Form output).

You have selected the determination technology with transportable conditions in the IMG activity Define Actions for Document Output.

You have the following options for setting the indicator Default Settings from Action Definition for a selected action profile:

• If you set this indicator,
  you can transfer the settings you made in the activity Define Actions for Document Output to an action template, where they cannot be changed.

• If you do not set this indicator,
  you can transfer the settings you made in the activity Define Actions for Document Output to an action template, where they can be changed.

If you want to edit the action profile for SRM documents (application BBP_PDProcurement Document), always do so by working through the relevant activity in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for SRM Server, and not by calling transaction SPPFCADM (PPF Administration: Start Customizing).

To edit an action profile, proceed as follows:

1. Select an action profilefor the desired document.
   The actions that are assigned to this profile appear in the upper right-hand area of the screen.
   SRM ships several actions with sample schedule conditions for the action definition of individual documents.
2. Choose Create....
   The system adds an action to the list.
   You can change the proposed processing type (for example, print) and processing if necessary.
3. Select the new action by double-clicking it.
4. Depending on what you want, either select or deselect the indicator Default Settings from Action Definitionon the Overview tab page.
   Specify valid processing times (for example, When Document Is Saved); see also Define Actions for Document Output.
5. Edit the action details.
1. Make sure that the indicator Schedule Automatically has been selected.
   This means that the action will be scheduled automatically, provided that the schedule condition is met.
2. Also make sue that at least one Available Processing option has been assigned to the action template.

• If you have selected Processing with Smart Forms, you must ensure that a Smart Form with a valid name, class and method has been assigned under Form.

• If you have selected External Communication, you must make sure that a PDF-based form with a valid name and a valid format corresponding to an implementation of the Business Add-In implementations of method PERSONALIZE_PDF_DOC_PDFIF of Business Add-In DOC_PERSONALIZE_BCS exists and is assigned under the form.

• If you have selected Processing with Method Call, you will be able to use a document-specific method (for example, EBP: Send Purchase Order in XML Formatfor purchase orders).
  Note:
  You can use this method as a template for your own methods in the <DS:GLOS.36F8E991E7CC696AE10000009B38F984>Business Object Builder.

1. Edit the schedule conditions.
   You can edit existing conditions (for example, Standard Output XML), or create new conditions.
1. Ensure that at least one scheduling conditionis assigned.
2. Choose Edit Condition.
   This takes you to the initial screen of the condition editor.
3. If you want to create a new schedule condition, you also go to the condition editor.
   Enter a description. You can store conditions by double-clicking the Condition Definitionarea of the screen.
   
   For more information about working in the condition editor, see the SAP Library (Basis-> Business Management-> SAP Business Workflow-> Reference Documentation-> SAP Business Workflow - Navigation-> Workflow Builder-> Functions in Workflow Builder-> Condition Editor).
   
   Note: You can set up serial processing for schedule conditions. If you do not create a Stopas the end of processing for output actions, the system sequentially processes a further output action (providing that the relevant condition is met).

You could specify the following values for processing a purchase order by mail:

For PDF based forms:

,,Form name = BBP_PO_ADB

,,Form Type = PDF Based Form

,,Format = BBP_PO_ADB_MAI

Schedule Condition,,Description = Standard Output Mail

,,Interface/object type = BUS2201 (Purchase Order EC)

,,Condition definition = Purchase Order EC.SendMedium& = MAI
