Requesting [company] review Eng Out procedure for SFO Rwy 19 L/R. The original TPS 19 L had Flap Conf 1; but due to conversation with Dispatch due to flight planning; TPS Flap Conf 2 was used. It is a generic EO Proc; but Airbus Note #2 stipulates that if more than 15 deg Angle of Bank needed; then Flap Conf 2/3 will be required.  This Flap setting ensures 30 degree AOB available.  This was my first Takeoff on Rwy 19L in the A321; but we needed 30 degree AOB IMMEDIATELY after takeoff; even with the normal SID.  I was Surprised to see Conf 1 assigned by the Dispatch program!I cannot see how Flap Conf 1 would have worked on a normal takeoff SID; yet alone EO Procedures.  This seems critical only for Rwy 19 since there are 2000 ft hills in front of the rwy.  Dispatcher informed me there was no Safety Filtering in program to cover Airbus Flap restrictions.  Looking at our safety filters; this would get trapped last by crew knowledge of this Note. There is a generic note that EO Procedures exist on TPS for SFO rwys 28/01/19.Please add notes on TPS Conf 1 row - N/A EOP or CHK EOPPlease add a Caution on EO Procedures requiring Airbus Conf 2/3 selection onlyPlease add software filtering in Dispatch/ Loads to restrict EO RWYS requiring Conf 2/3 - TPS Conf 1 Unavailable!
Computer generated TPS had us departing on runway 19L with flaps 1 on a specific departure requiring a 30 degree bank turn to a 100 degree heading immediately after takeoff to avoid a rapidly rising terrain to over 2000' feet. Upon close scrutiny of the TPS during my takeoff briefing checkk airman discovered the discrepancy and thereby trapped the error that could have had serious consequences for the flight.  We contacted dispatch and got a revised TPS for a flaps 2 departure.A review of the computer generated TPS program might be in order to prevent this type of event from occurring again.
A321 flight crew received a TPS for departure from Runway 19L at SFO indicated flaps 1 was required. The normal and engine out procedures for this runway both required a 30 degree banked turn immediately after takeoff which required a flap setting of 2/3.
