• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message L5112 - Release completed (no printing, data sent to external system) ?

  The SAP error message L5112, which states "Release completed (no printing, data sent to external system)," typically occurs in the context of the SAP Logistics module, particularly when dealing with delivery documents or shipping processes. This message indicates that the release of a document (like a delivery or shipment) has been completed, but there was no printing action taken because the data has been sent to an external system instead.
  Cause:
  
  External System Integration: The most common cause of this message is that the SAP system is configured to send data to an external system (like a third-party logistics provider or a different ERP system) instead of printing it directly from SAP.
  Output Configuration: The output type for the document may be set up to trigger an external process rather than a print job. This can happen if the output determination procedure is configured to send data to an external system.
  Missing Printer Configuration: If there is no printer defined for the output type or if the printer is not available, the system may default to sending the data externally.
  User Settings: User-specific settings or preferences may also dictate that documents are sent to an external system rather than printed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Output Configuration:
  
  Go to the output determination settings for the relevant document type (e.g., delivery, shipment).
  Ensure that the output type is correctly configured to either print or send to the external system as required.
  Verify that the output condition records are set up correctly.
  
  
  
  Review Printer Settings:
  
  Check if a valid printer is assigned to the output type in the output configuration.
  Ensure that the printer is available and properly configured in SAP.
  
  
  
  Adjust User Settings:
  
  If applicable, check the user-specific settings in the SAP GUI to see if there are preferences that dictate how outputs are handled.
  
  
  
  Consult with IT or SAP Basis Team:
  
  If the issue persists, it may be necessary to consult with your IT department or SAP Basis team to investigate any integration issues with the external system or to review the configuration settings.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making any changes, perform a test to ensure that the document is processed as expected, either by printing or sending to the external system.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like NACE (Output Determination) to check and configure output types.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for detailed guidance on output determination and printer configuration.
  Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP support team for further assistance.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to address the L5112 error message and ensure that your document processing works as intended.
