How to open print dialog from web dynpro abap application

Hi experts,
I have a web dynpro application with several views and onone of the view there is a button that should open print dialog with printers list and all other options (standard print dialog we see in windows). I did reserach on SDN and came to now that this is a limitation of web dynpro abap. I did find some code also but unfortunately our current version of ABAP(7.0) do not support the code I found. I am not able to find any proper solution for this. Could someone please let me know how I can open a print dialog by clicking on a button in web dynpro abap? Any sample code or any information would be greatky appreciated.
Thanks.

How to call t-code from web dynpro ABAP application

Dear Gurus,
I am new to ABAP web dynpros. I have to add a button and have to call a SAP standard t-code if user clicks on this button? How to accomplish this task? Any help or example would be appreciated.
Thanks,
GSM

Hi GSM,
You have to create a SAP transaction iView in your Portal, then obtain its URL in your webdynpro and call WDPortalNavigation.absolute() method.
Below are the same steps in more detail:
1) Create a SAP Transaction iView or an Internet Application Component iView (whichever you find convenient). While creating you can select whether you want to use SAP GUI for windows or SAP GUI for HTML. For the latter(GUI for HTML) ensure that your ITS is working fine and configured while creating the system in EP.
2) Open the properties of the SAP transaction iView created. In the OK code field you can give the ok code value just as you give in SAP R/3 in case you want to navigate to the second screen of SAP R/3 when you pass values from WebDynpro.
Example for the above would be say Transaction "VA03" for displaying Sales order. Suppose from Webdynpro i want to pass a parameter called "Order number" and when i click a button it should pass the order number to R/3 and skip the first screen required for inputting the sales order numbe.
It should directly go to the main display of sales order for that ordernumber.
3) Create your WebDynpro component and deploy it on the server. In your WebDynpro use the WDPortalNavigation.absolute() method and give the url of the SAP Transaction iView created as a parameter and also the required parameters that you would like to pass from WebDynpro.
4) Create a SAP WebDynpro iView in the Portal.
5) Now run the Component. It should open up your SAP Transaction iview.

How can I call a java object from Web dynpro ABAP application?

I made Web dynpro ABAP application and posted it to SAP EP.
For certain business purpose, we need to call external 3rd party java object using 3rd party's java api in Web dynpro application.
Is there anybody who experienced this kind of java interface issue?
I know Web dynpro Java environment can fully support this kind of requirement. but regarding Web dynpro ABAP, I couldn't find any clue for this.
Any comment or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

How to call custom themes for Web Dynpro ABAP Application?

Hi,
I need to change the appearance of Web Dynpro ABAP application. So far I followed below steps,
1.     Created theme folder u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019 ).
2.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to dowmloaod content of u2018sap_tradeshowu2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> sap_tradeshowu2019) to desktop.
3.     Modified the themes using Eclipse Theme Editor.
4.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to upload modified themes to MIME repository u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019) .
My current URL is like http://server.name:XXXX/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/hrrcf_a_startpage_int_cand?sap-client=XXX.
Now I want to know how custom themes called for Web Dynpro ABAP Application.
Is my approach correct?
...Naddy

Hi Naddy,
What you used is one way and even I failed when tried that method,
Instead go to SE38 - WD_THEMES - and you need to upload the zip file and you need to follow a folder structure.
it is case sensitive, atleast the zip file.
Make a zip file by name "Project.zip" -
Create a Folder Project and have the below folder structure,
1 data - all the properties files and also the designinfo file, below is the code
2 themes - (to get all the files download the theme from portal and you will have all the folders)
   2.1 ur
     2.1.1 name of the theme
       2.1.1.1 common
       2.1.1.2 csf
       2.1.1.3 r
       2.1.1.4 ur - all the css files (would be good if you can get the files from the server.)
       2.1.1.5   WSRP
3 war - empty folder
*.designinfo
isVisible=true
version=7.0.14.1.0
isDefault=false
isSapDesign=false
designName=**** name of the theme
Once done create a zip file and click on Start Import and give the path and will ask for transport request, it will take a while to upload once done as mentioned in the use the parameter sap-ep-themeroot="path"
This will resolve the issue.

Adding attachments to workflow from Web Dynpro ABAP Application program.

Hi,
workflow is supposed to start by a Web Dynpro ABAP Application.
The user can attach files to it.
A superior is supposed to review the files and either approve or reject the request.
I tried the following in Web Ddynpro ABAP:
CALL FUNCTION 'EWW_WORKFLOW_START'
EXPORTING
X_TASK = 'WS90000074'
IMPORTING
Y_WORKFLOW_ID = lv_WF_ID
TABLES
X_CONTAINER = lv_IT_CONTAINER
EXCEPTIONS
then followed by:
CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD'
EXPORTING
WORKITEM_ID = lv_wf_id
ATT_HEADER = lv_swr_att_header
ATT_BIN = Item_FILENAMEATTACHED
DOCUMENT_OWNER = SY-UNAME
LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU
IMPORTING
ATT_ID = lv_swr_att_id
The Workflow has only one user decision step and one notification Step.
In the user decision step, there is a binding from ATTACHOBJECTS to the task.
But, in the log, you can see the attachment in the Workflow Container of the workflow instance, but you don't see it in the task (neither Inbox nor UWL)
I have checked the binding it is correct. I am getting the attachment in workflow container in '_attach_objects' element. but this attachment has to go to the user decision step, so I am binding the '_attach_objects' of workflow container to '_attach_objects' of user decision step. But the attachment was not going to user decision step.
Could you please let me know where am i doing wrong?
Thanks,
V.Nagaraju

@Ruslim Chang
Sorry to point out but the FM will return the Workitem ID only so there is no problem with the LV_WF_ID variable.
@vundralla nagaraju
Instead of making binding between attachobjects make binding between
WiGroup_ID <---- attachobjects
and then on the next step you try to make biniding in the user decision step by using WiGroup_ID.I think it should work.

Print Functionality for Web Dynpro ABAP Application

Hi All,
I am using the standard print button provided by FPM in my application.
The application has a date navigator control as well as a dynamic ALV with fixed and on fixed columns.
I would like to know if the application has to do any implementation to provide print functionality. If yes, how do we do it?
Will it consider all the ALV columns as the ALV could have horizontal scroll bar.
How do we test it?
Defining output device in our user as LOCL is enough to test it? Are there any limitations?
Findings until now:
I just happened to see that gc_event_print FPM event is raised and the application uses interactive PDF form to implement printing.
I am not sure if this satisfies my requirement.
Could you help me in providing more information regarding this? You could also provide me some web dynpro examples for reference.
Regards,
Rekha

>I just happened to see that gc_event_print FPM event is raised and the application uses interactive PDF form to implement printing.
I am not sure if this satisfies my requirement.
As you are already suspecting, the FPM doesn't provide the print functionality itself. It only raises the event and the specific application is then responsible for how it wants to produce the output. Therefore it is your job to design the output (generally using PDF forum).

Hi
you can use function module
data   ls_input_container TYPE swr_cont.
data   lt_input_container TYPE TABLE OF swr_cont.
CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW'
    EXPORTING
      task            = ptask
    IMPORTING
      return_code     = lv_return_code
      new_status      = lv_new_status
    TABLES
      input_container = pinput_container
      message_lines   = lt_message_lines
      message_struct = lt_message_struct.
where you pass the data in imnternal table "pinput_container" as
ls_input_container-element = 'KUNNR'.
ls_input_container-value = ls_skna1-kunnr ."wd_this->lv_kunnr.
APPEND ls_input_container TO lt_input_container .
ls_input_container-element = 'CLUSER'.
ls_input_container-value = lv_cluser.
APPEND ls_input_container TO lt_input_container .
ls_input_container-element = 'BUKRS'.
ls_input_container-value = lv_bukrs. " youe value as per requirement.
APPEND ls_input_container TO lt_input_container .
ls_input_container-element = 'VKORG'.
ls_input_container-value = ls_sknvv-vkorg. " youe value as per requirement
APPEND ls_input_container TO lt_input_container .
ls_input_container-element = 'VTWEG'.
ls_input_container-value = ls_sknvv-vtweg. "youe value as per requirement.
APPEND ls_input_container TO lt_input_container .
ls_input_container-element = 'SPART'.
ls_input_container-value = ls_sknvv-spart. "youe value as per requirement.
APPEND ls_input_container TO lt_input_container .

HTTP form post from Web Dynpro Java Application without opening new window

Hi Experts,
We are trying to submit form data to an external URL from Web Dynpro Java application. We are achieving this with the following piece of code.
try
   strPrintContent="<html>"+
     "<head>"+
     "<script type=\"text/javascript\">"+
     "function myfunc () "+
     "{"+
     "var frm = document.getElementById(\"paymentForm\");"+
     "frm.submit();"+
     "}"+
     "</script>"+
     "</head>"+
     "<body onLoad=myfunc()>"+
     "<form id=paymentForm method=post action=\""+merchantURLPart+"\">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=username value="+userName+">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=pass value="+passWord+">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=senderid value="+senderID+">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=dest_mobileno value="+mobile+">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=message value='"+msg+"'>"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=response value="+response+">"+
     "</form>"+
     "</body>"+
     "</html>";
IWDWebResource webResource = WDWebResource.getWebResource(strPrintContent.getBytes(),WDWebResourceType.HTML);
IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow(webResource.getAbsoluteURL(),"WBSEDCL");
window.show();
catch(Exception e)
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("Error : "+e.toString(),false);
But it opens another window. We dont need that. We have to stay on the same window. Please suggest what can be done.

Hi,
You can create a HTML file with the request post parameters and the external URL something like this:
public java.lang.String GetRedirecturl( )
// External URL
String html = "<html><head></head><body onload=\"load()\"> " +
"<form id=\"form1\" action=\"https://www.abc.com/xyz.jsp\" method=\"POST\">" +
// Post Parameters
"<INPUT TYPE=\"HIDDEN\" NAME=\"Param1\"VALUE=\""+Param1Value+"\">"+
"<input name=\"sap-wd-resumeurl\" type=\"hidden\"/>" +
"</form> " +
"" +
"<script>" +
"function load(){" +
"var loc = window.location.search.substring(1);" +
"var queryString = loc.split(\"sap-wd-resumeurl=\");" +
"if(queryString.length > 0)" +
"{" +
"var resumeURL = queryString[1].split(\"&\");" +
"if(resumeURL.length >= 0)" +
"{" +
" document.forms['form1'].elements['sap-wd-resumeurl'].value= unescape(resumeURL[0])" +
"}" +
"}" +
"document.getElementById('form1').submit();" +
"}" +
"</script>" +
"</body> </html>";
String redirectUrl = "";
byte[] byteArrayHtmlData = null;
try {
byteArrayHtmlData = html.getBytes("UTF-8");
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("Internal error occurred. Please try after some time",true);
IWDResource htmlResource = WDResourceFactory.createCachedResource(new ByteArrayInputStream(byteArrayHtmlData), "Redirect.html", WDWebResourceType.HTML, true);
redirectUrl = htmlResource.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.AUTO.ordinal());
return redirectUrl;
Hope this will be helpful.

How to send Variable from a web dynpro abap application to anthor

HI all:
    I have two web dynpro abap applications .
    I want to send a Variable from a web dynpro abap application to another web dynpro abap application using post method.
    Because, now I have used append_field_url to send Variable,but this method will display the Variable in the URL.
    I do not need this result.
    I need the Variable from a web dynpro abap application to another web dynpro abap application and the Variable will not display in the URL.
    Can you give me an example?
    Thanks.

HI Nawal Kishor Mittal :
I have tried your method,but I can not get the value of variable.
My code is as follows:
The first web dynpro abap application:
DATA:BEGIN OF l_send,
     l_value TYPE string,
     END OF l_send.
l_send-l_value = '400001'.
EXPORT l_send-l_value FROM l_send TO SHARED MEMORY indx(aa) ID 'YTEST_MATNR'.
The second web dynpro abap application:
DATA:BEGIN OF m_send,
     s_value TYPE string,
     END OF m_send.
IMPORT m_send-s_value TO m_send FROM SHARED BUFFER indx(aa) ID 'YTEST_MATNR'.

Issue While printing / Previewing a Adobe form in Web Dynpro ABAP application

Dear All,
We have designed 4 different adobe forms using SFP transaction for 4 different countries in SAP system.
Every country have different terms and conditions and therefore we have placed static texts (Hardcoded text) with text in different styles. Some text is in bold, some in different font (Bold, Italic). Font and Paragraph settings of the text was done as per expected. All the forms have same font and paragraph settings.
When we Launch Web Dynpro ABAP application to open the form in Print preview or to take print, form is not getting displayed / printed as it is designed in SFP. But if you open the form in SFP, everything looks fine.
It is working fine for 3 different forms but problem with only 1 form.
Kindly guide what is the reason for this strange issue when previewed or taken print. It is very urgent.
Thanks,
Bharath.K

Dear All,
Thanks for your responses.
We had identified the reason.
Customer has provided terms and conditions for all 4 countries in PDF document. Along with PDF, for 3 out of 4 countries customer has shared pre-prepared word document with pre aligned and justified terms and conditions as per expected outcome. We copied this text from word to Adobe form layout. It worked fine. For 1 country, customer have not shared terms and conditions in word document. Therefore we had copied text directly from adobe PDF document in to Form layout. Then this issue happened.
Solution for this issue is to, prepared a word document with expected alignment and justification of terms and conditions text . Then copied from word to adobe livecycle designer form layout. It worked fine.
Thanks,
Bharath.

How to put water mark in web dynpro abap Adobe forms

Hi
Can any body tell me how to put water mark in web dynpro Abap adobe forms ,
actually I need to print water mark as back ground in gray color.
Points will be rewarded of Helpful answer..!
Regards,
Sidram

Hi,
for more information about layout options in forms, go to your form in transaction SFP, layout view and choose Help -> Adobe LifeCycle Designer Help. There you find information on page layout, e.g. " Objects can be placed anywhere on a master page, inside or outside the content area. As a general rule, do not place objects inside the content area unless your intention is to have other objects laid down on top of the master page objects when the form is rendered. If you are setting up a watermark, place it inside the content area. "
Besides, there's an Adobe forum where you might get more information for such Adobe questions.
