    The SAP error message V1704, which states "Maintain print parameters: Output &, sales office," typically occurs when there is an issue with the configuration of output parameters for sales documents in the SAP system. This error is often related to the output determination process, which is responsible for defining how and where documents (like sales orders, invoices, etc.) are printed or sent.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Output Type Configuration: The output type for the sales document may not be properly configured in the system.
    2. Sales Office Not Assigned: The sales office associated with the sales document may not have the necessary output parameters defined.
    3. Output Condition Records: There may be no condition records for the output type in the relevant sales area.
    4. User Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or maintain output parameters.

    Solution:

    1. Check Output Type Configuration:

      • Go to transaction code NACE to check the output type configuration for the relevant application area (e.g., Sales).
      • Ensure that the output type is defined and properly configured for the sales document type you are working with.
    2. Maintain Output Parameters:
