often there are instances where an o/p from a SAP prg is
required on a physical paper in a pre-designed format.Using
normal ABAP code this is not possible.Instead SAP provides
an object called SAPScripts to generate such kind of
documents which can contain logos, tables and other objects
and which can look like pre-printed document.
