MESSAGE DETERMINATION
"Message determination" means that the system searches for a message
record whose key combination matches up with the values from the relevant
purchasing document.
If the appropriate settings have been made in Customizing, a new message
determination process can be carried out when purchasing documents are
changed.
Output can be send to vendor in the document such as printout order,
confirmation, delivery note we communicate with vendor via postal service
or electronically by email/fax
