Which parameter can you specify in a condition record for a message output type in SAP MM?

In the context of SAP Materials Management (MM), when configuring condition records for message output types, specifying a partner function is important. The partner function defines the role of the partner involved in the transaction, such as vendor, customer, or another relevant entity in the messaging process. It allows the system to determine which partners will receive specific messages based on their assigned functions within the organizational structure or business process.

For example, if a purchase order is created, the system might need to send notifications to both the vendor (as a partner function) and possibly to the purchasing department. By defining partner functions in the condition records, you ensure the correct recipients receive the intended messages, improving communication and operational efficiency.

Other parameters, such as print form, output time, and message texts, while important in different aspects of output configuration, are not parameters that you would typically specify in a condition record. Print forms relate to the format of the output document, output time involves the timing of when the message is sent, and message texts deal with the content that will be communicated. These elements are configured separately, making partner function the key parameter in defining recipient roles in the context of message outputs in SAP MM.
