  The SAP error message SLS_LORD115: No output type specified: Print preview not possible typically occurs when you attempt to generate a print preview for a document (like a sales order, delivery, or invoice) but the system cannot find a valid output type associated with that document. This can happen for various reasons, including configuration issues or missing settings.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Output Type: The document you are trying to print does not have an output type defined in the system.
  Output Type Configuration: The output type may not be properly configured in the output determination procedure.
  Document Status: The document may not be in a status that allows for printing or previewing.
  User Authorizations: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the output type.
  Output Condition Records: There may be no condition records for the output type in the relevant configuration.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Output Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the relevant transaction (e.g., for sales orders, use transaction NACE).
  Check the output type settings for the application area (e.g., V1 for sales).
  Ensure that the output type is defined and properly configured.
  
  
  
  Define Output Type:
  
  If the output type is missing, you may need to create it. This can be done in the same transaction (NACE).
  Ensure that the output type is linked to the correct application and has the necessary settings.
  
  
  
  Check Output Determination Procedure:
  
  Verify that the output determination procedure is correctly assigned to the document type you are working with.
  Ensure that the procedure includes the output type you want to use.
  
  
  
  Create Condition Records:
  
  If the output type requires condition records, ensure that they are created. This can be done in the relevant transaction (e.g., VV21 for sales documents).
  Check if the condition records are valid for the specific document you are trying to print.
  
  
  
  Document Status:
  
  Ensure that the document is in a status that allows for printing. For example, some documents may need to be saved or released before they can be printed.
  
  
  
  User Authorizations:
