Print Pop-up on transmitting PO form

Hi,
I have 2 PO types using the same print program and message type for the PO form. But 1 form have the print-pop up when transmitting the message and the other doesnu2019t. What might be causing the inconsistencies? I need both PO types to have the print-pop up and be able to print them.
I have checked t-code NACE and both PO types are maintained in the same Message condition and they are using the same Print program.

what is the difference in the message between those two POs?

Hi,
Is your both POs with same document types?? if nit then might be for the other PO once maintain condition records in MN04 for that document type.
And if all the settings are proper and still not geting that pop-up showing no of pages to print, then you check in MN04 give Date/Time as 4 i.e. send immediately while saving...this way you will get spool request and get the printout.
Thanks

Print program name for the dunning form F150_FR_DUNN_01 in sapscript

Hi,
I am not getting the exact print program name for the dunning form F150_FR_DUNN_01 in sapscript. After an extensive search I have come across few names of print program like SAPF150D2 and SAPLF150. But still I am not understanding which one to use for the form and also how to use it. I am unable to understand which include I should use to write my code.
Kindly help me.
Thanking you.

Hi,
Yes, you should be able to assign F150_FR_DUNN_01 in Dunning Forms customizing:
and yes, I too would absolutely try to go for either a Smartform or even a PDF Form (if i'd have all the necessary setup for them, like Adobe Document Services, in the system already). I have Basis 702 SP 0011and FINBASIS 600 SP 0021, so all the following technicalities refer to those releases:
The corresponding SAP sample Forms are:
- F150_DUNN_SF for Smartform; and
- F150_DUNN_SF for pdf Form (don't let the name confuse you )
I'm not entirely sure if it's a good idea to try to convert/migrate Sapscript to Smartform and the Smartform to PDF Form - have never done that myself and don't know how good/usable the migration result is. I just take the interface of Smartform from SAP and do the rest from scratch or by copying over the common parts of our existing custom forms.
There are the SAP Standard wrapper FMs for SF and PDF forms already in the System:
- FI_PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE_SMARTF calling PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE_SF and
- FI_PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE_PDF calling PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE_PDF.
So, theoretically, all you had to do to replace SapScripts (or even to enable all three form types) is to assign a custom BTE Event handler FM to event 1720 (for correct Application), which could detect, what type of form is assigned in Customizing and call the corresponding wrapper FM.
As a sample for coding PDF form wrapper call one could take FI_PSO_EVENT_00001720_PDF (if you have IS-PS) in the system. I'd take out the IS-PS specific "business logic" like posting dunning charges (if it does not apply to my solution) and add the logic to decide, which wrapper to call.
The confusing part about the customizing (Table T047E) to me is that there seems to be no form type defined anywhere in there... just the FORNR field for form name, which should apparently take the names of all three form types... I'd try to extend that table with custom Form type field and try to regenerate Table Maintenance dialog for view Cluster VC_T047_F... That would save the whole effort to try to detect the type for form assigned...
Another tip, in case you didn't know it already: you should be able to see all the Customizing paths, where T047E is involved, when you enter table name in SM30 and press "Customizing" and then "Continue w/o Specifying Project":
The selected entry is the one you are looking for to assing your custom forms, I believe.

Printing Turkish Characters in SAP Script Form

Hi I want to print a Form where I need to Print Turkish characters from Database. Its Print Preview is coming absolutely right but there is some problem while printing. I shows # symbol in places of Turkish Characters. I have checked the printer and drivers and they are absolutely fine. Printer is printing other documents in Turkish Language but not the form. System has Turkish fonts installed. Kindly help. Thanks in advance.

Hi
See this OSS note for your problem
OSS Note: 776507
Symptom
Documents printed via SAPscript or SmartForms do not print with correct special characters, e.g. ### prints instead of Japanese or Russian characters. What to do?
Other terms
SAPscript, SmartForms, printing, device types, OTF
Reason and Prerequisites
Help required to choose proper fonts in a SAPscript or SmartForm
Solution
When using SAPscript or SmartForms to print (or email or fax) a form from a business application, many factors influence the outcome of the actual text within the form. All these factors must be checked in order to ensure a correct printout:
1) The language version of the form used to produce the printout.
Example: If you want to print a French invoice, you need to have a FR version of your SAPscript or SmartForms invoice form RVINVOICE01. And the application program must specify the corresponding language key (FR) when calling the SAPscript or SmartForms API.
2) The font selections specified in the form (possibly also in a SAPscript style or SmartStyle used in a form).
Example: In a SAPscript form or a SmartStyle you need to specify HELVE if you want to print German text in Helvetica (or similar) font. If you want to print Japanese text, HELVE is not a valid choice but you need to specify a Japanese font like JPMINCHO in your Japanese form.
3) The output character set of the device type
Every printer in transaction SPAD has a "device type" assigned. Device types used by the spooler for printing support only one single specific output character set. All text from the form has to be converted (using SAP's built-in character conversion mechanism) to this output character set.
A character set can typically support either a single language (e.g. Shift-JIS which supports only Japanese) or a set of languages (e.g. ISO 8859-1, which supports Western-European languages). It is possible that a given language (such as German) can be supported by several output character sets, e.g. you may use either ISO 8895-1 (Latin-1) or ISO 8859-2 (Latin-2) to represent German text. This is so because both character sets contain the special characters used in German.
Example: HPLJ4000 is a HP LaserJet device type supporting the ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) character set. ISO 8859-1 can be used to represent e.g. Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Swedish but NOT Russian or Japanese.
As a consequence, it is ok to use HPLJ4000 to print English, German French etc. but not for Japanese or Russian.
4) The set of available printer fonts for a given device type
When formatting a document, SAPscript and SmartForms perform an automatic mapping of the font definitions in the form (e.g. "HELVE 14 point bold") and the available printer fonts of the device type. A replacement printer font is chosen, should the specified font selection not be available in the device type. Now this replacement can be problematic if a language-specific font, such as Chinese CNSONG, is specified in a form and it gets replaced by a font which does not support this language, e.g. COURIER.
To solve this problem, font families in SE73 have language attribute assigned, e.g. some fonts are characterized as being suitable only for certain languages. And when a replacement has to be chosen because the original font from the form is not available in the device type, a replacement font is chosen which has the same language attributes.
If no fonts for the language in question exist in the device type, the resulting font will not be able to print the special characters and you will see "wrong" output characters in the printout.
Note on SAPscript/SmartForms Print Preview:
The OTF Print Preview available in Windows GUI (e.g. from transaction SP01) will sometimes not show the "wrong" characters which appear on the final printout. Here is the reason: since the Print Preview runs in Windows environment, it will use Windows fonts to represent the actual printer fonts. A Windows font typically has more available characters (i.e. covers more character sets) than are actually available in a printer's resident font.
A typical example where the Print Preview will differ from the printout is here: if you have a Chinese PCL5 printer such as CNHPLJ4 and use the Western Latin font COURIER in your document, the print preview will show you Chinese characters if you (by accident) tried to format Chinese characters in COURIER font. This is because Windows will automatically choose a font that can output Chinese characters (which is actually not Courier). But when you print the job on an actual PCL5 printer with resident Western and Chinese fonts, the Courier font will not print any Chinese characters but Western special characters instead, because the printer's resident Courier font does not include Chinese characters.
Rule of thumb: all Asian device types (e.g. CNHPLJ4, JPHPLJ4, JPPOST, KPHPLJ4) support not only Asian fonts but also COURIER, HELVE and TIMES fonts. But these Latin fonts can only be used to print English text, not Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters.
Which fonts are suitable for a given language?

Verify your output by examining the OTF data
When analysing printing problems of this type, be sure to check the OTF data which gets produced by SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF or "Output Text Format" is the intermediate page-description format generated from SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF will contain the final printer font names and character set/language identifiers which help to solve the problem. OTF will even name the form and the language of the form used to create the output.
The easiest way to do this is to create a spool request from your application, run transaction SP01, use menu
Goto->Display Requests->Settings
and choose
Display Mode: Raw
Now display your spool request. If this is a SAPscript or SmartForms spool request, you will see OTF data. Each line represents one OTF command, every command starts with a 2-character cmd identifier and possibly some cmd parameters follow.
Here is an excerpt from a sample OTF file where we highlight the most interesting commands:
//XHPLJ8000    0700 00000000001
IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
IN05%PAGE1
OPDINA4 P 144 240 1683811906000010000100001
IN06%WINDOW2

UL +0000000000000
SW00067
CT00000000
ST0453037Dieses SF hat Stil ALEXTEST_ZEBRA mit
The 1st line with the // (Control) command reveals the device type usedto print: HPLJ8000
//XHPLJ8000    0700 00000000001
The 2nd line (IN = Info command) shows the name and (internal 1-char)language key of the form:
IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
In this case it is the English (E = EN) SmartForm ALEXTEST_ZEBRA
The OP-line (OP = Open Page) gives the page format used in the form, it is DINA4 Portrait orientation:
OPDINA4 P 144 240 1683811906000010000100001
The CP (CodePage) cmd shows the SAP system codepage used to code the text and the active language. In our case it is codepage 1100 and language E = EN = English.
CP11000000E
Finally, the FC-cmd (Font Call) lists a printer font selected within SmartForms. Please note that every SmartForm has a designated default SmartStyle under "Form Attributes->Output Options". In addition, every text node can have a SmartStyle attached (which will override the definitions from the default style for the text). In our case the resulting printer font that was selected is HELVE 12.0 pt bold-off, italic-off.

WEB.Show_Document(POP Up Window In 11g forms)

Is it possible to open a Http inside the POP Up Window In 11g forms.
This is what i tried to use:
Created a Dummy Window,dummy Canvas and by clicking the push button i gave this message:
web.show_document('http://www.google.com','Html_Window');
WEB.Show_Document will open only in seperated window but i need to open in the Pop Window is it possible please help on this.

As Denis mentioned, you cannot show html content natively in a form. You would need a bean to do that. However, if you are just trying to create something that looks like a standard browser pop-up window, there are several ways to do it. Be aware however, that in some cases, the following example will not work if you are using an older JRE. The latest JRE is 1.6.0_29 and runs the following code correctly assume the browser is not set to block pop-ups.
EXAMPLE 1:
web.show_document('javascript:window.open ("http://www.oracle.com","myPop","location=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,status=no,resizable=yes,height=600,width=600");self.close();');
EXAMPLE 2:
Declare
     inJS      varchar2(32767);
Begin
     -- More info about window.open here:
     -- http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_open.asp
     inJS := 'new_win=window.open("http://www.oracle.com","new_win1","menubar=0,location=0,toolbar=0,status=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=500,height=600");';

End;

Print size does not default to form size when printing PDF form.

So, we have created an interactive new client form for our firm. The form was created in LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 and is set to legal size (8.5 x 14). After the form was completed and exported, it was filled out for testing and printed. During the printing process it was noticed that in the print dialog box, the dimentions for the form were wrong. It showed that the default document size was 8.5 x 11. Where and how is this changed in LC?
A new form was created (starting from scratch) with the document settings set to legal again, and inside of LC in the PDF preview panel, I tried to print and the same thing occured.
Please advise as how to set the document to its default size when printing without have to do it in the print dialog box.

The print dialog doesn't display the forms dimensions but those of the currently selected paper format of your printer.
If you change the page format in the printer driver the diemensions in the preview will change too.

Printing everything entered in an interactive form

I'm new to designer and I created a form in which a user will type in comments. My problem is, I'm getting a + in the lower right corner telling me there is additional information entered than is displaying. When I print this form the overflow information does not print. Is there a way to do this? Your help is appreciated.

Unfortunately, I don't know of any books on subforms in Designer but maybe a sample form will help you understand a little more about how things work.
Catherine was suggesting using a text field with its height set as "expandable" placed in a flowed subform such that if the text entered in the text field is too long to fit in its entirety, the text field would expand in height and push the rest of the form downward, thereby ensuring that all the text entered into the comment text field is visible when printed and the remainder of the form is still visible and unobstructed as well.
I've applied her suggestions to a sample form.
Because I knew I wanted an expandable Comments section in the middle of my form (such that when comments are entered, if they're too long to fit in the space initially provided, the Comments section would expand in height and move the bottom section downward), I started by creating 3 subforms on the page: TopSubform, CommentsSubform (in the middle) and BottomSubform. All these subforms were made to be as wide as the page subform and as tall as required to fit their respective fields.
In the middle subform (CommentsSubform), I placed a text field with these modifications: I removed the caption (using the Position property at the bottom of the Layout palette), made its height expandable (checked the
Expand to fit property on the Layout palette as well) and made it multi-lined (
Allow Multiple Lines property on the Object palette's Field tab).
In order to ensure that the text field in the CommentsSubform can expand in height and push the BottomSubform downwards, I then made the CommentsSubform's content
Flowed by using the Content property on the Object palette's Subform tab.
The last step, which brings this all together, was to give a
Flowed content to the page subform which contains all 3 subforms defined earlier. This way, when the text field in the CommentsSubform expands in height, the form's layout will reflow and cause the BottomSubform to shift downward to accommodate the length of the comment specified by the user. This is also the reason why I placed the top and bottom form fields in subforms as well because I wanted to
position these fields in precise locations. I could've placed all fields in the page subform, made the page subform flowed and have it work as well but I wouldn't have had any control over the position of the fields.
I hope this clarifies things about subforms and helps you fix your form as well.
Note:
The expandable comment text field doesn't expand as your entering text into it. It'll expand only once you tab or click out of it.

Printing formatted text from an Oracle form

I'm trying to print formatted text from an Oracle form without using the standard menu print. The print button on the menu prints out the text and the actual form. I just want to print the text that is displayed on the form. I would like to add a print button to the form. Is there a print function or event in PL/SQL?
Thanks in advance for any help!!

If you are interested in the content of the field you can loop over them (next_item built in) and write their content into a file using the TEXT_IO built in.
for nicer outputs check out Oracle Reports on OTN.

My other computer's Firefox hangs with a Print pop-up.

On Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5, I've been getting 5 or more unattached pop-up windows during reboot. They may or may not be from Firefox.
Today, on my other computer, I found a solid clue that they are from Firefox when a Print pop-up covered the unattached pop-ups. Clicks the PDF drop-down takes me to the Save File pop-up, where no icon clicking does anything but the Cancel. (I has used this a couple days ago).
One of the 5 or more unattached pop-up windows will accept a password entry, but neither icon functions. These windows require the master password for the Software Security Device, whatever that is.

When I hover over the window, it does come up front, but as soon as I press the red "X" it goes immediately back to the main window and acts as if I was trying to close that one. Once in a while it will work, but shortly thereafter, it will just go back into this manner. Quite odd. This is the first time I've truly had any problems with Firefox.
In addition to that problem I have noticed a few things, but one that may be linked is sometimes I'll click a link. Although I haven't specified to open it in a new window, it will do so anyhow. This gets annoying quickly. Usually shutting down Firefox and reopening will fix this (and once in a while just leaving it be for a long time). Somehow, I think this issue is somehow linked to the one above.

Problem printing pop-ups

We've been using HTML help (.chm files) for years and not
noticed that it doesn't seem to print right when printing pop-ups
in the compiled help. The topic will print underneath the pop-up,
so words on words, with the pop-up being transparent. I am on
Robohelp X5 and my colleague with the same issue is on Robohelp X6.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can I print a specific part of a form, wrapped in a subform?

Hi,
I'm a rookie in LiveCycle, and could use some help!
I have created a form, with several radiobuttons, to show/hide futher questions.
Now I want to give the end user, the possibility to print out only part of the form. More specific, a part wrapped in a subform.
Is there somehow I can do it with Javascript?
I'm using LiveCycle ES2.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
you can exclude objects (like subforms, fields etc.) from printing by manipulating the relevant property, but this will also hide all objects included in this object.
A script in the prePrint event of an object can control if this object and all its chilc objects will be printed or not.
if (xfa.resolveNode("form1.#subform.checkBox").rawValue eq 1) then
$.relevant = "-print"
else
$.relevant = "print"
endif

Printer Pop-up Dialog box

Hi
I encounter the printer Pop-up Dialog Box appear upon a
PrintJob is sent.
Is there a way to ignore or escape this pop up box?
Regards

We have currently upgraded 3 instances and it is happening in all 3 on all PC's. Appears that Oracle has it's own pop-up printer window it uses when printing from the PC instead of using the standard one. I imagine it is slow because of it being java. I'd open an SR but they will just say to update to today's version of java. We can't test in other browsers since IE8 is our standard company wide. I haven't got any hits searching MOS or Google on this so was just wondering if others are seeing the same thing. BTW - Our 11i instances work fine and load quick even on the first print but then 11i is using the PC's standard print pop-up window and not a java based one from the applications.
FYI - Fuound Bug 9202075 which seems to be the same issue except that we are on java 1.6.07. I have opened an SR.

How to avoid Print pop-up while using a Adobe form.

Hi Experts,
I am calling a adobe form from a BAPI.I am using the following function modules FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME and CALL FUNCTION fun_name. But when I try to execute the BAPI a print preview pop-up appears.Please let me know the steps to avoid the print preview pop-up while execution of the BAPI.
Thanks in Advance.
Warm Regards,
Arun.

Hello
I don´t understand the connection between BAPI and the printing program. I guess - at least that is what I have done - is to generate the form when creating and invoice or something, then I could understand.
When you ask for GETPDF = 'X' then you always get the PDF data back and not the popup.
Or if you would like to display the print preview without a print settings popup. Or variants...
FUNCTION ZPDF_SET_OUTPUT_MODE.
*"*"Lokální rozhraní:

How to print hard copy on client when form submit

I am using JSP 1.2 and JSTL 1.0 .
I have a situation where JSP sends dynamic content
page to the client browser.
On this page is a submit button. When the client
clicks on submit, the content on that page gets printed
to the default printer connected to the client' computer.
Also the printer setup dialog should not appear when submit
is clicked.
Is there anyway to do it using only JSTL on JSP or Java code in servlet
without using any scripting language like Javascript ?
Thanks for your thoughts

JSP cannot give you access to the local O/S commands such as the printing API. The closest you can get is to use <form name="form1" method="POST" action="mythankyoupage.jsp" onSubmit="window.print()">
</form>Unfortunately, you can still not guarantee this behaviour, my IE6 pops up a print dialogue on this command, other user settings will behave differently.
