Printing

Find out how to create a print queue item API.

You can use the method CREATE_QUEUE_ITEM_BY_DATA with the class CL_PRINT_QUEUE_UTILS to create a print queue item of a queue. One print queue item has one main document and can have either no or a variable amount of attachments. The method CREATE_QUEUE_ITEM_BY_DATA has the following importing parameters:

  • IV_QNAME: Name of the print queue

  • IV_PRINT_DATA: Print document contained in xstring format

  • IV_NAME_OF_MAIN_DOC: Name of the main document

  • IV_NUMBER_OF_COPIES: Number of copies

  • IV_PAGES: Number of pages

  • IT_ATTACHMENT_DATA: List of attachments within the structure. This includes the name and the attachment data in xstring

If a print queue item has been created successfully, it returns the ID of the item with the parameter RV_ITEMID. In case of any errors, you can find the error messages in the exporting parameter EV_ERR_MSG.

Example:

CLASS zcl_pq_test DEFINITION
  PUBLIC
  FINAL
  CREATE PUBLIC .

  PUBLIC SECTION.
    INTERFACES if_oo_adt_classrun .
  PROTECTED SECTION.
  PRIVATE SECTION.
ENDCLASS.

CLASS zcl_pq_test IMPLEMENTATION.
  METHOD if_oo_adt_classrun~main.
    DATA: l_print_data TYPE xstring.
    l_print_data = |…|.
    DATA(lv_qitem_id) = cl_print_queue_utils=>create_queue_item_by_data
      EXPORTING
        iv_qname            = '…'
        iv_print_data       = l_print_data
        iv_name_of_main_doc = '…'.
    out->write( lv_qitem_id ).
  ENDMETHOD.
ENDCLASS.
