The below post shows how to configure a new output type for the billing process in SD. The Output type is associated with any form that might be a sap script or smart form or adobe form . Then this output type is associated with an output determination procedure. Finally the output determination procedure is assigned to the particular billing document type.
When a billing document is created in the system of a particular billing document type, the output determination procedure calls the out put type associated with it and the particular driver program prepares the data need to be printed and finally calls the form for printing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step1. Go to tcode- SPRO.
Step2. Navigate along the highlighted path and open billing types.
Step3. Double click on the first option.
Step4. Let's take L2 billing type. Double click on it.
Step5. The billing type L2 uses output determination procedure as V10000. Now we will create our new output type & will assign to this output determination procedure. By creating a billing doc of type L2 we see see the effect of our new output type.
Step6. To create a new output type and assign it to a output determination procedure. Use Tcode- NACE.
Step7. Our application of testing is billing. So choose V3 as the application and select OUTPUT Types.
Step8. Here we can see in the right side of the screen, a lot of output sides are already exists in the system. Let's create our own output type one. So click on the Edit button.
Step9. Click on New Entries.
Step10. This screen will appear.
Step11. Provide the output type name and description. There is something is called access sequence. This we will discuss in our next post. Click on Default Values tab.
Step12. Actually when the user gives a print command, then whether the print will trigger immediately or by a background job that has to be configured with a transmission medium. The transmission medium varies like whether a print our or fax or mail. In this case we are interested for a print output. The billing print out has to be send to a particular customer. Lets in a sales case we will send the bill to the responsible party ( customer) called Bill-to-Party. So choose Partner Function A BP(bill to party). Then move to the next tab Time.

Step18. Nothing to do here. So now again double click on the Processing routines.
Step19. This screen would appear. Now click on New Entries.
Step20. This is an important step . Where we have to actually maintain the Driver program name and the form name. So here we are using the below program name and the smart form. The Form routine is given as Entry. which is a subroutine inside the program RLB_INVOICE . This means that when this output is called for a particular billing document this program RLB_INVOICE is called and its subroutine ENTRY is executed which helps to prepare the data & passed to the smart form or sap script or adobe form. In this the user can maintain 5 different programs and 5 forms. See the below screen. Well these programs and smart form are already available in the system and is taken from the standard output type RD00. Here the customer can also create a Z program and their own smart form or sap script or adobe form and maintain here. Se step 21 for the standard program & smart form name. After filling this double click on the partner functions.

Step28. In the very first step, we have seen the billing document type L2 uses output determination procedure V10000. So select the output determination procedure and double click on the Control option form the left side.

Step30. Provide a step name and form Ctype- Provide our above created output type ZDME and hit Eneter key from key board to validate it.
Step31. Now save it and go back. If asks to save in a request, save it and go back.
Step32. So here our out put type is assigned to the output determination procedure.
