SAP Note 27831 - Priority of output requests ?

Symptom:

In the spool, you can give spool requests a priority which is then passed on to the generated output requests.
Where does this have its effect?

Cause and prerequisites

Solution
This priority has no effect on the processing sequence within R/3. If the system is set up "well", the spool work processes should be fast enough so that there is no queue that could be sorted anyway.
If the host spool supports a priority scheduler, the priority is passed via '&Y'). For details, please see note 15355.
However, many of the supported host spool types do not recognize these priorities.
