Any business has to deal with various different types of print documents. The documents may belong to any business department and may change country wise as per the laws of different countries. Some common examples of print documents are Invoices, Sales Orders, Goods receipt, Payslips, etc. These might have to be printed in large numbers.

SAP Script is a tool to easily create or modify the layout of these forms as per the business requirement. SAP has provided standard Scripts for almost all different types of applications in business.
