Problem with native offline Interactive Forms in webdynpro java.

I have a java webdynpro project build like the one in this tutorial:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/how-to-guides-rig-official/netweaver-2004/web-application-server/how%20to%20create%20online%20and%20offline%20forms%20in%20web%20dynpro%20(NW2004).pdf
The "Online" part of the tutorial is working but in the offline scenario I get no data in WebDynpro from the Interactive form (all of Context Attributes have a value "null") after the use of "Submit to SAP" button. this is the button from the Web Dynpro Native Library in the LC Designer.
the versioning information:
Netweaver 7.0 WAS on SP13
ADS SP13
Lifecycle designer 7.1
We updated the ZCI template according to the SAP notes.
Does anyone know this problem and how to fix it ?

Hi niru,
To work on adobe forms in webdynpro java you need to install ALCD(Adobe Life Cycle Designer) along with NWDS(NetWeaver Developer Studio).
To know about adobe forms in webdynpro check the following link

ZCI for Adobe Interactive Forms in WebDynpro Java

Hi experts,
Can i use Zero Client Installation (ZCI) forms in WebDynpro Java.
I am not using ABAP at all & i want to avoid ACF installation on client side.
I am using :
SAP NWDS 2004s SP12
Adobe lifecycle Designer 7.1

Hello Virag Shinde,
ACF is supported with all the SPs across the Netweaver 7.0 stack and we will continue to support that except the fact that no further development will happen in that area. ZCI is the future of Interactive Forms solution by SAP.
Following two notes would be helpful to get started with ZCI:
1042394: Updating Interactive Form template with ZCI capability
1055911: Creating ZCI based interactive Forms in Web Dynpro for Java

I have write a JavaScript for readOnly format in the click event of Submit button.Its working fine in ALD.But when am trying run my form in NWDS its not working.i.e when i click submit button in the form the entire form must be readonly. How i can archive this. Can anyone suggest me how to do.My JavaScript in click event of Submit button is
for (var nPageCount = 0; nPageCount < xfa.host.numPages; nPageCount++)
 var oFields = xfa.layout.pageContent(nPageCount, "field");
 var nNodesLength = oFields.length;
 for (var nNodeCount = 0; nNodeCount < nNodesLength; nNodeCount++)
 oFields.item(nNodeCount).access = "readOnly";
please help....

Hi Venkat,
 You may need any JavaScript to do this.
In Designer you can setup the signature field in that way, that all fields will be locked after signing.

Blank page when using Interactive Forms(Webdynpro thru Java)

While i was running the application using Interactive Forms iam getting Blank page.
Previously when i try to view the output, i can able to view it without any errors,suddenly what happened is iam knowing.
ADS was perfect,CredentialRights there,AdobeReader-7.0,ACF with SP11 installed and Active-X Controls Enabled.
Can i know where the problem exactly is?Is the problem from client side or server side or do i need any settings for IE6.0?

Hi Sankar,
Did you use NW04 SP11 before (with ACF) and upgraded to NW04S? Your ACF version you mentioned is for NW04S and not for NW04.
Also keep in mind that SAP changed the way Adobe forms are displayed (ACF will be replaced by the ZCI layout) - ZCI stands for Zero Client Installation. If you upgraded to 04S, you might need to change your forms as well (also the WD application).
On your interactive forms application (the webdynpro) are there any links outside the adobe form? What happens if you click on it? At our side we have created a customer message, since the ZCI form is not being displayed. We also get a white Adobe placeholder, and when we click on a link outside the placeholder, we see the Adobe PDF logo being displayed in the placeholder (placeholder = frame).
In your case: do you see a small red cross icon in the frame? That means ACF is not installed properly.

Use of pdfSource in Interactive Forms in webdynpro

hi,
please let me know the use of "pdfSource" property while designing the Interactive form in webdynpro. i tried with and without creating the pdfSource property in my application and still there were no errors while deploying it.
Thanks
Regards
Poojith M V

Hello Poojith M V,
Let me answer your query in a little bit more details. The statement first: An interactive form can be rendered with or without a pdfSource attribute.
But there are significant differences in the way they work and the application is designed. When you have the pdfSource bound to a context attribute of type binary, you do a PDF interchange between the browser and the server. The whole point is that you will always have the latest PDF document (binary) available in that context attribute on the server and you can make use of this binary PDF to do anything your apllication requires (saving it onto the file system, storing it into the database, performing some other operations on the server, email it etc etc etc).
Now, the other side of it, when you do not have the pdfSource bound to a context attribute, only XML exchange happens in between the browser and the server. Well, that means you only have the latest XML data available on the server at any point in time and since you have not bound the pdfSource, you do not have the binary PDF available to you through the context. There are ways you can get it but not through the context and not the latest one. It would still contain the initial data it had in the first request response cycle as you have not updated the PDF after that.
Now, the question is, which one to use ? It completly depends on your application requirements. There are certain functionalities which are not possible without having the latest PDF binary in hand. For example, you want to apply a digital signature on the document, you want to add an attachment on the document etc. But, then in most of the scenarios, the application would just need to exchange data between the client and the server (and vice versa) and do not worry about the binary PDF. That is the ideal case when you need not bind the pdfSource. It will be faster as well.
Hope that clarifies your doubt to certain extent. Go ahead and start with you interactive form application.
Best Regards,
Krish

Unable to test Adobe interactive form from webdynpro

ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: Could not retrieve a password for credential: ReaderRights(200.101).
Actually i was trying my first Adobe interactive form with webdynpro and when i tested it i got this message.
The following error text was processed in the system NED : WebDynpro Exception: The ADS call has failed. You can find information about the cause in the error.pdf on the application server
Does Adobe interactive form requires Java stack to be active??
Or is it only a configuration issue in ADS???
What all should i take care in order to successfully run an adobe interactive form???

Dear Abhishake,
Thanks for your reply.
I had gone through the link you had mentioned detailly.what i understand that is ZCI needs to be installed thats comming with Support pack SAP NetWeaver SPS 10 .
Will this also take care of ADS configuration.Where can i find a guide to ADS configuration and ZCI installation.
When i ran a report check FP_CHK_REPORT below is the output i got.can you please throw more light on this.

Interactive Forms by WebDynpro for ABAP

Hello,
I'd like to create Adobe Interactive Forms by "WebDynpro for ABAP".
Our business requirements are
- to download offline PDF forms.
- to upload PDF forms and display Forms online.
Please let me know how to do this and the document or blogs.
Best regards,
Koji

Hi,
Downloading a form is as simple as when u enduser opens a form online, he just saves a copy of it, fills it up and uploading is just the next step.
If u want to upload an offline PDF form:
Here's the link that'll give a fair idea about this:
/people/shruti.rathour/blog/2008/02/07/uploading-sap-interactive-form-on-the-abap-webdynpro-view
If still not clear ask me..
It's just that u've created a view in webdynpro ABAP and uploading an offline form from that.

Hiding fields and subforms on interactive form for WebDynpro ABAP

Hi All:
I'm new to using interactive forms and I am creating a new form for material request. I need to hide selected fields based on the value of other fields. I also need to hide subforms the same way.
I have added the formcalc script to hide the field which apperas to work. But is I remove the field value, the hidden field is not made visible. This also applies to the hiding of the subform. I have tried the code at different events but no luck. If I enter 'KINC' in the plant field, the KINC_TAX_IND is visible. But if I remove or change the value, the KINC_TAX_IND is not being made visible.
Below is the code I am using:
if ( PDF_DATA.#subform[0].PLANT.value == "KINC" ) then
PDF_DATA.#subform[0].KINC_TAX_IND.presence= "visible"
else
PDF_DATA.#subform[0].KINC_TAX_IND.presence= "hidden"
endif
if ( PDF_DATA.#subform[0].PLANT.value == "" ) then
PDF_DATA.#subform[0].Subform2.presence= "hidden"
else
PDF_DATA.#subform[0].Subform2.presence= "visible"
endif
Thanks for any help.

Adobe Interactive forms - ABAP Webdynpro or JAVA Webdynpro?

Hi,
I am an ABAPER and I got few requirements for Adobe Interactive forms Offline Scenario/Online scenarios & ALV reports.
I have practiced a session ( How Tou2026execute an RFC model with inputs from Interactive Formswith RFC Module ) -JAVA webdynpro where it interacts with SAP via BAPI.
Now my question is I am bent more towards ABAP.. I want to do this in ABAP but unfortunately I haven't found any similar material for ABAP webdynrpo.Could anyone pls suggest me !
FYI.. We are also developing some ALV Webdynpro reports and I am using PURE ABAP which i like it.
So the other reason is we don't want install NWDI and complicate this structure as we don't have ESS/MSS requirment here. Just we need some forms/reports on portal.
Any suggestions and links which can help me here?

Hi Vara,
You can develop Interactive forms using WD ABAP also.
[E Learning- Interactive Forms using WD ABAP|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/media/uuid/c766e918-0b01-0010-99b1-c2b78cd059b3]
WD Java is useful in case, when your ABAP system is less than ECC 6.0. Otherwise you can achieve same functionalities in WD ABAP also.
Hope this will help you.

Can ABAP Webdynpro use interactive form or just print only

I saw a diagram in the ADS configuration Guide for SP10 what shows that the ABAP side of the configuration is only for print forms. Now my question is: can ABAP Webdynpro include an interactive Adobe form in the view? Has anyone done it before? It seems that it is only for Java Webdynpro that the interactive part is working.
If you have done one, can you share some information?
Thanks

Hi Jeff,
Sure, Web Dynpro ABAP can also embed Interactive Forms.
