Debugging Adobe forms in ISR framework

Hi,
I have created a Adobe Interactive form (on the SAP side) which is using the Internal Service Request framework (ISR). Before when I used the JSP forms I could create an external break-point in the ABAP code of BaDI QISR1 and debug it when running it on the portal, however when using the Adobe forms it seems not to work. Does anyone know if there is a way to debug the ABAP code called by Adobe Interactive forms?
Thanks in Advance,
Michiel van Rhoon

Hi Michiel,
You can do it by setting an external breakpoint in your code. Then login to the adobe form with the same user specified for the breakpoint.
There could be a problem that you login to the portal with your name, but that the Adobe form logs in with the standard j2ee admin account. Please check your JCO connection then (authentication must be set to Ticket, instead of User/Password). This is a WebDynpro JCO connection by the way

Debug adobe forms used in ISR

Hello,
is there a possibility to debug the scripts in an adobe form?
Thank you
Koen Van Loocke

Hi,
I am really sure of what your requirement is...But I used to try getting the values of BADI using the SENDAPIMAIL* Function module and get the required values in the form of mail, I place this in the appropiate method in QISR1's BADI implementation.

How to debug Adobe form attached to Web Dynpro for ABAP

Hi,
My developer has created an adobe form and rendered inside a Web Dynpro page in the SAP Portal. It communicates with the Web Dynpro framework in the backend SAP system (Web Dynpro for ABAP).
My question is, how would I know what infotype access this form requires, in the form of backend authorization role? Is there any way (not trace, ST01) to debug Abobe form on Portal or in backend SAP system?
Thanks,
Karan.

Yes, that's possible since the trace also records the information on the ABAP source code location where the AUTHORITY-CHECK statement (or other ABAP statements which internally trigger authorization checks) is executed. If I'm not wrong then there is a button (in ST05) which allows a direct source code navigation. Alternatively you might just click on the ABAP source code information displayed in the ST05 trace results (for recorded authorization checks).

Adobe forms in ISR

Hi,
I have a scenario to create an invoice in a backend SAP system using Adobe forms.
I have developed the form using the QISRSCEANRIO trasaction. But when I execute the form, it creates a Notification and displayes the new Notification number created.
My need is that instead of Notification, it should directly create the invoice and show that "Invoice XXXX has been posted/parked".
I can call the Invoice creation function module i the Proces user command method of the BADI definition QISR1. But I couldn't find a way to display the message "Invoice XXXX has been posted/parked". Everytime I submit the Form, invoice gets posted but only message appers is that "Notification created".
Is there a way to get the message "Invoice XXXX has been posted/parked" displayed once I submit the Form.
Thanks,
Prasanna

Hi,
These ISR's have been defined in such a way that A NOTIFICATION gets created whenever an ISR Form is submitted.
So you can cannot change the message that comes out of the standard ISR Application i.e. Notification XXX is created.
Well,can you let us know if the Invoice is getting created properly from the BADI Implementation?
Can you let us how you are taking care of VALIDATIONS?
There are lot of validations which are needed to be done during Invoice creation? Can you let us know, how we can do that?

Attachments in Adobe form for ISR in Employee Interaction center

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to attach a document to Adobe form which uses ISR scenario.
I am using the attachment option of PDF but the attachment is not going through.
I am using standard ISR scenarion SEIC.
Can anyone please let me know if there is any other method for attaching the doc. to Adobe form and send the Adobe form to agents inbox using Workflow.

Hi Jarret,
For first option {1. You may be able to use the custom event in the adobe form, and attach a script routine to this event to link the attachment to the PDF form.}
Can you please let me know how we can add a custom Event for scripting?
Also i dont know Java script so can you please provide me any reference from where we can start the coding/ writing a Script to add the attachments.
For the second option { 2. Trigger a custom process instead of the ISR from the ESS.}
What custom process can we use. Can we go ahead with HCM forms and processes to achieve the functionality?

How To Debug Adobe Form in Production ?

Hi gurus,
Could anybody please help to debug a adobe form in production system. what is the procedure to debug in production.
Thanks & Regards,
Suman Kumar

You need to save the set (XML-DATA) and after it you can redo the form in your developing-system.
There is just on important thing to know, the interface isn't allowed to change during this process.
You have to search for it.
My key-words would be something like "using preview / xml download preview".
If you do not find a solution, I recommend you to invest in this book It saved my life more than one time in the past

Debug Adobe Form Workflow

Hi folks, I am trying to debug a workflow based on Adobe Form through the Portal.
I am setting a breakpoint inside the workflow but when executing the form through the portal, the code is never been passing for the breakpoint.
My portal user and the debugging user is the same.
I have set all the required parameters in SPRO to associate my scenario with the workflow.
Am I forgetting something?
Is it possible to debug the workflow?
Thanks in advance.

Where did you set the break-point? Is it an external breakpoint?
Otherwise you can try to set an endless loop and debug it from SM50.
Regards,
Martin

MessageBox on Adobe Form in SAP MSS PCR for SAP ECC 5.0

Hello,
I have a question regarding the behavior of Adobe form messagebox in SAP HR MSS PCR (Personal Change Request)
I tried to test how the messagebox looks like, and so I created a PCR scenario with an Adobe form. This form contains a datetime field. I added the script "xfd.host.messageBox("this is message", "this is title") to the "exit" event of the datetime field. Then I did all the necessary steps so that this PCR is displayed in the Portal.
Now at the runtime, when I select a date value from the datetime field, the messagebox is displayed, BUT within an empty Adobe Reader page. It is not displayed on the top of my adobe form.
But the strange thing is that when I use tab key to navigate through the datetime field, the messagebox is displayed on the top of my adobe form, without the empty Adobe Reader page.
I also tried my script with several different event types, including "Change", and "Validate", it behaves the same way. But when I tried it with the event type "MouseExit", no empty Adobe reader page is shown up at all (of course, this is not the right event type for me)
The environment is SAP ECC 5.0, SAP MSS business package for ECC 5.0, SAP Portal 7.0 (NW 2004s), Adobe LiveCycle 7.1, and Adobe Reader 8.1.1
Has anyone experienced this? I'd really appreciate any comments and suggestions. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Harrison

Antony,
The Adobe Reader version is 8.1.1
Just wondering if you used messageBox in interactive forms with ISR framework, and it worked well for you?
Thanks.

Problems!: calculated fields in Adobe Forms using the ISR/PCR framework.

Hi there,
I have made an Adobe form in the ISR framework. Everybody who is familiar with these forms in the framework knows that the adobe form is embedded in a standard webdynpro which consist of a roadmap with three steps.
Step 1: Fill out the form
Step 2: Check and fill the form
Step 3: Submit the form. After submit the form can be send to a manager or can be directly processed in SAP HR.
Problem 1:
When I test the adobe form and fill in a number in a field and click on next everything goes fine. But when I click on previous step the value which I filled in before is gone and put to 0,00.
Problem 2:
Also another problem is that calculated fields, do not show directly when clicking on next step. When you click on next step and then previous step, then you see the value of the calculated field.
Problem 3:
Also another problem is with the calendar function. When I fill in a date by hand and click on next the BADI behind the form sees 00-00-0000. When I use the calendar function everything goes well.
Who can help me with these 3 problems.
Greetings.

Hi Phil,
Interesting - I have a similar issue. We want to use the Request for Transfer scenario in ERP 2005, but it has not been developed in Adobe forms by SAP yet (it isn't available in 2004 either)! So, we have decided to use the old JSP PCRs instead.
Your issue is probably because you're using the same 2005 iviews to create your PCRs. The 2005 PCR iviews are written in WebDynpro, and appear to assume that each one will be an Adobe form! If you assign the old PCR iviews to your manager (give them the old MSS role under Migrated Content->EP5.0... in the pcd if you have it installed), you will be able to create a PCR with the JSP forms (regardless of the "Entry in Web" setting in QISRSCENARIO).
The next issue is the approval. In 2005, transaction SWFVISU has task TS50000075 configured as Java Webdynpro. You'll need to change that to iView, and specify ID = com.sap.pct.hcm.isrdispatcher.default. I'm following the UWL item type guide for this at:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/b1/cc1357eead454bb144face4a66be7d/content.htm
Having said this, my approval is not working! The item type has clearly changed, because the workitem name is no longer a hyperlink (rather annoying), but when I hit the "Launch Task Page" button (default name I think) I get the error:
"Unable to perform action because the system returned an invalid URL"
I can't see this "invalid url" anywhere in the logs, so I can't see where it is getting it from, or what path, etc I'm meant to put! In your old system, what did you have as the "Server for ISR call" under "Additional Data for Scenario" in QISRSCENARIO? Also, what did you have in the "URL" box that appears under the Additional Data for Scenario button when you change the Entry Type to JSP?
Many thanks,
Russell.

Webdynpro for ABAP - Adobe form ISR based

Hi,
We are building a custom HR application to automate various HR processes
like New Hire, Termination, etc.. Due to certain internal issues we are
unable to use the standard business package for MSS (and hence PCR screens
with adobe forms). We have to create custom webdynpro abap screens for the
whole application. Now i would like to check if there is a possibility to
use the ISR framework with a custom webdynpro abap application.
I checked the transaction QISRSCENARIO but i could not find any option for
webydnpro abap in "Entry type for Web".
Have anyone of you tried such a scenario earlier with ISR's? Is there any other way
that we can use webdynpro ABAP applications with ISRs? Or do we have any
work around for this.
Please send in your valuable comments.
Thanks in advance!
Sudha

Hi Phani,
Thanks for the info.
I am able to see if it is not interactive.
Displaytype is native only.
Let me explain you the issue in detail:
Currently Client is calling ZFORM thro Java. They have some issues with JAVA so they want to use Webdynpro to call that ZFORM and the form is ABAP Dic based.
For Templete source I gave ZFORM name, and it automatically created a 'NODE' wrt the context in the ZFORM.
Now I have to pass data from difft node attributes to that 'NODE'.
Thanks in advance,
GG

Authorization Profile needed for ISR Adobe Forms

Hi,
We have a couple of Custom ISR's and PCR's that are launched in Enterprise Portal.
Well my Development ID had SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW Profiles attached.
Now, when we started testing with the sample Test id's which doesnt have SAP_ALL or SAP_NEW profiles, we are getting error in ENTERPRISE PORTAL saying that...
"You are not authorized to use the Notification Type 99"
Can anyone help me out in knowing the exact Authorization Objects for our Adobe Forms to run in EP.
I cannot attach SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW profiles to all my users.

Hi,
Im new to the ISR framework implementation.
We have a problem when we try testing a scenario using the adobe part, we have not done this before and we getting errors.
We get the following errors:
1. When using Administrator and Adsuser:
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.WDRuntimeException: ComponentUsage(FPMConfigurationUsage): Active component must exist when getting interface controller. (Hint: Have you forgotten to create it with createComponent()? Should the lifecycle control of the component usage be "createOnDemand"?
2. When i use my profile username:
com.sap.engine.services.webservices.jaxrpc.exceptions.InvalidResponseCodeException: Invalid Response Code: (401) Unauthorized. The requested URL was:"https://10.142.252.157:50001/AdobeDocumentServicesSec/Config?style=document:50000/AdobeDocumentServices/Config?style=document"
Can anyone advise me on what i should configure so that this can work properly...
Is it an issue with the authorisation, because the ADS tests are all working.
Thanks
