SAP Error Message - Details

• Message class: C2 - Other messages production orders

• Message number: 298

• Message text: No SAPscript form defined for list &1 (ref. order type &2, report &3)

What causes this issue?

You have not specified a SAPscript form in print control for list &V1&
for print variant &V4& with reference order category &V2& and print
program &V3&. You cannot print a list without a form.

System Response

If you are printing in online mode, the application continues by
printing the next list, once you have confirmed the message.
When shop floor papers are being printed in the background, the message
is automatically confirmed by the system and the application then prints
the next list.
However, if printing is carried out during posting in an update work
process the system terminates posting and the order or changes are not
saved. Printing in posting is often carried out during batch conversion
of planned orders. If an error occurs, the system terminates not only
the current conversion but also any mass conversion that may be active.
If you execute <LS>Printing of Shop Floor Papers</> in the background in
mass processing, the system terminates background printing after it has
output the message. You can use transaction <DS:TRAN.SM58>SM58</>
(transactional RFC) to determine the cause of the error.

How to fix this error?

In print control, enter a SAPscript form for the list &V1&.
<DS:SIMG.SIMG_CFMENUOLPFOPK8>Execute Function</>

Procedure for System Administrators
