Text formatting in FSCM correspondance using smart-forms

Hi Experts,
We are using FSCM correspondance functionality with smart-forms in our project. As per requirement, we need to have some text in italics and bold. We have used paragraph format/ character format in smart-form to get the same. When we trigger correspondance, print preview looks fine. But, when we receive actual mail with attachment as .PDF of the smart-form, we are not able to get characters in italics. Bold is working for us but, not with font ARIAL. Our requirement is to use ARIAL font only.
If someone has already worked on similar requirement, please share your experience with me. Or please provide some pointers to look for. Any input will be highly appreciable. Thank you in advance.
Gouri.

I'm not sure if SmartForms support the Arial font. You can look for notes on this. Helvetica is almost the same and is supported. So this is what I generally use.

Transfer Order Printing using smart forms

Hi All
Our requirement is to print Transfer Order ( WM ) for Goods Receipt & Delivery using Smart forms.
Can we change the existing standard format (SAP script ) and use our own form(smart form ) to include some other data & print.
If possible how to replace the SAP script to Smart form.
Request someone could guide in detail.
Thanks in advance.
Samson

Hi
When you create Smartform try to replace it in customizing OMLV. Not sure if it will work as it refers to Sap Scirpt in help description.
It is also possible to write Z program for TO printing and hardcode SmartForm there.

Check out with your SD guy if the items in billing doc have correct pricing conditions triggered.

Otherwise revert back with the logic how are you trying to get the net value of item.

Sending emails in PDF & TXT format generated by SAP script/Smart forms

Hi
We have a requirement to configure SMTP node to send emails in PDF & TXT format. Currently, Output format for SAP Documents generated by SAP Script/Smart Forms configured in PDF. (Tx - SCOT - SMTP Node - Intetnet - Output Forms for SAP Documents). But, We also like to send emails in TXT format for other application in the same system. I see that you can send emails generated by SAP Script/Smart Forms either in PDF or TXT format not both.
Is it possible to send the emails in both the formats by configuring in Tx SCOT?
Your inputs will be appreciated.
Regards
Chandu

Hi chandu,
1. emails in both the formats by configuring in Tx SCOT ?
Scot will allow only ONE AT A TIME.
2. The other workaround is,
that using some FM
convert the OTF (sapscript/smartform)
data to TEXT,
and send it as RAW
3. Configure RAW = TEXT in scot.

Text element not gettin refreshed in smart form

Hi
Text element does not get refreshed in the smart form preview.
I have a selection screen on which i have a few selection parameters and three application
toolbar buttons. "Save" , "Preview" and "Print". At the end of selection screen I have a
button "text" which when clicked takes me to the text element editor(FM 'TEXT_EDIT' )
I have to enter a project number on the selection screen, enter all other details and
then click on the "Text" button. I would then change /edit some text etc and come back
to sel screen. Now i click on preview , the smart form shows up and the text gets dispalyed
with the modified text.
I am passing the text name by appending "sometext" + project number to the TEXT_EDIT
and while eiditing and as a parameter to the smart form. In the smart form i have given the variable in the "include text".
Now Herez the problem.
I am still in selection screen and clik on the "text" button and it takes me to the
text editor. Now i add more lines, save and come back. Now i clik on preview
button and it displays the old text data.
When i come out of the transaction and renter , clik on the preview it displays data
correctly. Now if i repeat the steps
1.edit text button , add a few lines
2.preview button, shows data as entered in step 1.
3.edit text button, add few more lines
4.preview button .. the text displays is from step 1 and not 3.
I am not sure if this is lot of info for anybody to write an answer straight away but
if u need more info i can provide. I can do a read_text in the smart form but its toooooo
much of a pain for the data i need to display. million adjustments to be taken care of.
What could be the problem ? I have given all the basic settings like save parameter
in edit_text fm , checked all the print preview options in sdn.
Here are my questions
1. Why is the text element not getting refreshed.
2. After a form is displayed for preview , will it store anywhere in the buffer ? if yes
is there any method to clear it ?

Hi,
The problem is not with text elements, it might be your size of window which you are using to display the text elements. Check your window size and modify that accordingly.
Cheers,
Bujji

E-Recruiting - Job Posting using smart Forms

Hello,
Iam working on adding some customized content to the Job posting which would be visible to the candidates when doing a job search and applying for jobs.
I have browsed through SAP blogs which have information on using SAP Smart forms for Job posting but never knew how to go about the whole thing.
I would also want to add my client logo and some image files for the Job posting.
Can some one provide insights on how exactly to do that?
P.S --> I found some information on u201CBAdI: Specify Proposal Texts for Postingsu201D on SAP Help but could'nt find any such one in R/3 to work on. We are running version 6.0.
Thanks
G Raj
Edited by: G Raj on Aug 29, 2008 2:45 PM

Hello G Raj,
the BAdI you found is only for providing standard texts in the posting maintainence. If implemented it sets text you use again and again depending on requisition attibutes so the recruiter does not have to type in everything each time.
For the publication smartform, as for any other data overview, you do not change the standard you just replace the standard example by your company one. You start by copying the standard smartform to keep the correct interface (all e-recruiting smartforms are named HRRCF*) and changing to the layout you need. Then you set the smartform in IMG under SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> User Interfaces -> Settings for User Interfaces with Business Server Pages (BSP) -> Assign Parameters to Parameter Types.

Problem with text formatting within a table in Adobe Forms

Hi all,
I have a table on a non-interactive Adobe form (which is a copy of the standard expense form PTRV_EXPENSE_FORM. The table in ABAP has a text field with CHAR50. On the form, the text field has a width which allows approximately 35 characters. Therefore the text wraps onto a second line. My problem is that the text is not formatted and words are just split randomly.
For example:
The fox ran across the fields and into the woods.
would be output as:
The fox ran across the fields and i
nto the woods.
How can the text be formatted to only output complete words?
I have tried defining the textfield as text only and rich text, but nothing changes the output.
Interestingly, even if I change the font size from say 10 to 8, the text is output the same, even though there is enough space for at least one more word on the first line.
Has anyone else come across this problem?
Thanks,
Patricia

Hi Syed
The table is IT_RECEIPTS_ADD_INFO, field VALUE_CHAR. In the form it is called Receipts_addl_info.
I have just found out that the data is being re-formatted in the interface. That caused the problem. Many, many thanks for your help.
Best regards
Patricia

ECC 6.0 wants to use smart forms .

Hi Friends,
I have a requirement to generate a PO, I want to use smartforms, As I am new to it I dont know what is the form name and respective driver program. I am using ECC 6.0. please let me know .
Thanks in advance.
Sagar.

Hi,
As a functional consultant, we are not going to do much with the smart forms. The smart forms will be developed by the technical team and it will be attached to the PO output type.
To view the link please follow the following the steps.
1. Execute NACE transaction code
2. Select EF for purchase order
3. Select Output types below the status bar
4. Select output type as NEU, in our system if you customized a output type, you can select that
5. Select Processing routines at the left control panel.
6. Where you can see the Medium of Print output is linked to either form or the smart form.
If it is blank speak with your technical team for assigning the same.

RitiG

formname = 'ZTEST_SMARTFORM'
IMPORTING
fm_name = fm_name.
it passes the function module name generated....
then call that function module..
CALL FUNCTION FM_NAME

How to save data acquired from NI-DAQ in text format instead of TDMS using the DAQ-mx ANSI C code?

Hi,
I wanted to save data acquired from NI-DAQ (for example, NI 9234) in a file using the DAQ-mx ANSI C Code. The response I got was as follows:-
One way to do it is with TDMS logging. DAQmx comes with functions designed to log to a TDMS file. This is a special file type that is used for collecting data in a logical format. It can be displayed in a TDMS viewer where data is separated into groups and channels. NI-DAQmx provides examples for how to log to TDMS. Look at the TDMS examples in the C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\DAQmx ANSI C\Analog In\Measure Voltage directory.
However, now I want to know is there a way that using that same C code, can we save the data in a .txt file format (Text File) instead of a TDMS file? We actually want to access that file through MATLAB (that's why we want to save it in text format).
Also on an other note, is there a way we can access & open TDMS files by MATLAB?
Thanks,
Sauvik Das Gupta

There's a way you can access TDMS files in MATLAB:

How to use smart form for production orders

Hello Experts,
I have a couple of questions about printing out production orders from SAP, from OPK8.
My ABAPer has developed a smart form and I am trying to use the same for the list LG01, i.e. the object list.
Since, there was no place to assign a smart form directly, so the ABAPer has copied the existing print program , defined for my ref. order type and LG01 and assigned the new smart form inside the program. This new program has now been assigned against my ref. ord type, LG01 and all the plants, as seen in screenshot below.
Now, what is happening is that when I give print for my order, a pop-up screen asks for the printer. I give LOCL , check 'print now' and then click on the print preview.
I can see the new form that has been developed and it is alright.
Then, when I click on the back arrow, once again the print pop-up screen appears. Now, when I enter LOCL, print now and click the print preview, then I see another form open up before me. I am assuming that this is some form which was pre-configured in the system, under the section 'Forms', for the same object list LG01.
Do I have to assign the new smart form under the section "Forms' also, for the ref order type and LG01? or the change in the section 'print programs' is enough for the new form to kick in? Please guide me. I tried to but it gave the error that the form is not created in English. Also , my form is a smart form, not a SAPScript or PDF form, so I wonder if that will help at all.
Requirement :- I need to suppress this second form somehow but do not know how to do it. I want that only one form, i.e. my smart form should be printed out when someone gives print from the order.
Let me know if something is not clear.
Regards
P.R

Hi P,
Go a few steps down and remove flags on the documents you don't want to print:
this are just suggestions, they can be changed in your production order, in CO02, menu Order->Settings->List Control.

Edgar
