• SAP Tcode: OD01 - Document Types

  
  Overview:
  The SAP transaction code OD01 is used to maintain document types in the SAP system. Document types are used to differentiate between different types of documents, such as sales orders, purchase orders, invoices, and more. This transaction code allows users to create, change, and delete document types in the system. 
  
  Functionality:
  The OD01 transaction code allows users to create new document types and assign them to a specific document class. It also allows users to change existing document types and delete them if necessary. Additionally, users can assign a number range to each document type and define the number of digits for the document number. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use:
  1. Enter the transaction code OD01 in the command field. 
  2. Select the “Create” button to create a new document type. 
  3. Enter the name of the document type and select a document class from the drop-down list. 
  4. Assign a number range to the document type and define the number of digits for the document number. 
  5. Select “Save” to save your changes. 
  6. To change an existing document type, select it from the list and make your changes in the corresponding fields. 
  7. To delete a document type, select it from the list and select “Delete” from the menu bar. 
  
  Other Recommendations:
  It is important to note that when creating or changing a document type, you must also assign it to a specific company code in order for it to be used in that company code. Additionally, when deleting a document type, you must first delete all documents associated with that type before you can delete it from the system.
