The SAP error message: VN016 Output &, medium &, application & are not defined typically occurs in the context of Vendor Master Output Determination or Output Management in SAP, especially when trying to process or print outputs related to vendor documents (like purchase orders, invoices, etc.). Cause This error means that the system cannot find a valid output type, medium, and application combination defined in the output determination procedure for the vendor or document in question.
