  Cause:
  
  Default Document Setting: The message is triggered when a user or system action sets a default document type for output (like print, email, etc.) in a specific transaction or process.

  Check User Settings: 
  
  Navigate to the user profile settings in SAP and check if a default document type has been set. You can do this by going to the user settings menu and reviewing the output options.
  
  
  
  Review Output Configuration:
  
  If you are an administrator, check the output configuration settings in transaction SPAD (Spool Administration) or transaction NACE (Output Types) to ensure that the correct default document types are configured for the relevant application area.
  
  
  
  Change Default Document:
  
  If you want to change the default document type, you can do so in the relevant transaction or user settings. Look for options to modify the default output settings.
