Hi,

you have to define, via SPAD, a PDF printer:

- Device type: PDF1

- Device class: Standard printer

- Host Spool Access Method: G

- Host printer: PDFCreator

Then, you have to insert it, for your report variant (es. SPF09 for RFKORD30_PDF), into the field 'Output to printer'.

Best regards

Hello

It looks like that you had not installed the ADS(Adobe Document server) for the PDF type reports. Please check with your basis team if you want to configure ADS.

If you need the output as a sapscript then please do the sollowing steps:

(1) Execute transaction SM30

(2) Enter 'Table/View' as V_T5F99OCFT

(3) Select 'Maintain' option.

(4) Select 'New Entries' option from the Application Too

(5) Enter following entries:

Logical Form Name = HR_IN_EPF12A_99M

Form Variant = (Leave this field blank)

End Date = 31.12.9999

Start Date = 01.01.1990

Form Type = SAP Script (SSC)

Def. Type = (This field should be checke

PDF Form Name = HR_IN_EPF12A_99M

SAP Script Form Name = HR_IN_EPF12A_99M

Smart Form Name = (Leave this field blank)

(6) Save the entries

The above example I have given you is only for the form 12A.

You have to make entries for all the reports sapscript in this table.

Please goto SE71 -> F4 -> Payroll -> Payroll India here you will find

all the sapscripts you require.
