Any SAP users? Printing multiple invoices

Participant · 17 Mar 2009 at 13:09

Hi all

I am an accountant that uses SAP to support head office but not as a main accounting system (working for a subsidiary). The problem we've got is that when a customer gets a statement with lots of invoices that they need copies of, we have to go into the customer account, get the billing document number, then print / PDF that document number for every single one individually.

Is there no built-in function that allows a more efficient method whereby all the oustanding invoices at any one time can be PDF's instantly? Seems incredible that with the complexity of SAP, such a simple thing is not achievable. I've spoken to HO in Italy and they don't have a clue.

Thanks for any input.

PS I know that SAP is a huge things and can vary wildly, just hoping that someone here has a similar configuration.

I dont think there is unfortunately.....

You can run something called "Customer Line Item report" that will give you something similar but PDF by PDF is the way our accounts receivable do it (In Bangalore) now its been outsourced.....

SAP is arguably the worst software product known to man.

I hate it with an undying passion.

While I wouldn't say its the worst package in the world I will agree with you on the hatred. It's abhorrent. Such a crappy and inconsistent UI.

I, sir, have never worked for a company that bothered to provide access to Support Desk.

I was working on an SAP implementation with a company over the summer last year. The cost of the project was ~£25 million!

We 'use' it as our internal system.

SAP really is the bane of my life. Every other helpdesk call is about people getting stuck in it!

SAP makes me SAD

In the unlikely event that anyone stumbles across this thread needing an answer, I have found the solution via the mighty Google - run program VF31.
