  The SAP error message O1507, "No output has been selected for printing," typically occurs when you attempt to print a document (such as a purchase order, invoice, or delivery note) but the system cannot find any output type that has been configured for printing. This can happen for various reasons, and here are some common causes, solutions, and related information:
  Causes:
  
  Output Type Not Defined: The output type for the document may not be defined in the system.
  Output Condition Records Missing: There may be no condition records for the output type, meaning the system does not know when to trigger the output.
  Output Determination Procedure: The output determination procedure may not be set up correctly for the document type.
  Document Status: The document may be in a status that does not allow for printing.
  User Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the output type.
  Output Medium: The output medium may not be set correctly (e.g., print, email, etc.).
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Output Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the relevant transaction (e.g., NACE for output types) and check if the output type is defined for the document type you are trying to print.
