Continuous Cheque Printing

This document discusses configuring page lengths when printing continuous forms from SAPscript in SAP. It provides the following steps: 1. Determine the SAP spool device type used for the faulty printing. 2. Check if a format type already exists matching the page format used in SAPscript, and if not, create a new format type. 3. Configure the correct page length for the continuous forms by adding the proper printer escape sequences to set the line spacing and page length in the format type's initialization action. The page length should be set based on the number of lines or inches required by the specific form. Modifications should be made to a copied device type rather than the original

Continuous Cheque Printing

A) Create Check lot in FCHI


Indicator: Non-Sequential Check Number Management
Select this indicator if you do not want the check numbers to be used sequentially, but in an
order decided externally.
Note
Check lots which are marked as non-sequential cannot be used in Automatic payment
transactions (A! or in online check printin". #t is therefore only worthwhile to use these
checks if the issuer writes the checks without usin" the SA system (each lot in the order of
his choice!, and then defines the rele$ant information in the SA system at a later date.
Checks from non-sequential check lots can only be archi$ed once all the checks from that lot
ha$e been issued and are able to be archi$ed.
