Im installing a built in dishwasher. I want to know if I should put
the waste water outlet before or after the U trap.

Thanks

usually it goes into a port on the garbage disposal. if you don't have one,
it goes on the sink side of the trap.

I dont have a Garbage disposal. So On the sink side that explains it.
Thanks.

Yes, on the sink side. If you put it after the U trap, it will suck down the
water in the trap, and the trap now being dry you will get sewer odours out
of your sink.

They Make a tail piece with a tee for a dishwasher (or hose connection)

Umm, this might sound offensive, but I really don't mean it that
way:
You're installing a dishwasher, and you didn't get any
installation papers with it? Got it cheap somehow? Fell off the
back of a truck?
Is it one of the recalled groups of washers? Do you know
whether the drain hose has to be higher than or lower than a
specific part of the dishwasher? Do you T it or Y it into the
drain? And so on?

From the sound of this question and obvious lack of paperwork
that came with it, I applaud your ambition to install it, but you
need to know a few more things than connecting power and water to
it.

Here's a place to start:

and also:

but there are hundreds more waiting for you at google.com if
that's not enough.

HTH,
