Differentiate between button events in WD ABAP Interactive form ?

Hi ,
I have a senario in which I have 2 buttons in a Webdynpro ABAP Interactive form.
Button1 is to fectch some values from the back and set in the context so that it is populated in the form.
Button2 is submit button which calls a BAPI in the backed..
I need to differentiate between the events of these 2 buttons in my Webdynpro ABAP onSubmit event..
Is there any way to differentitate which button I have clicked in the form.. ????
Thanks
Siva

Hi Sivaraj,
you can try defining an action on OnCheck action. I think it should work.
If it doesnt work then, define an attribute in the context, and place it on the form, make this field invisible. Then on click on button set some values in this attribute. Read the attribute value in the ABAP. And perform the action according to that.
Hope this helps,
Amit

WD ABAP Interactive form to xml to xstring

Hi All,
I have created one WD ABAP interactive form with a submit button. After user enter the values in the form, once submits, it should trigger a workflow and I should send the whole PDF form as an attachment to a workitem.
For triggering work flow is not a problem. But this pdf should be generated again at workitem attachment.
For converting to PDF and attachming the pdf to workitem I already have a business object.But now the problem is I have to generate the XML file from the context values and send this as xstring to my program, so that by using this value, it will re genarate the pdf with this updated values.
So, i need a way to generate xml out of user filled interactive form
and pass it as xstring.
Appreciate your help.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi ravi,
These are the function modules which converts table to String and the String to Xstring.
SOTR_SERV_TABLE_TO_STRING "Table to String
SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING "String to Xstring
For triggering work flow is not a problem. But this pdf should be generated again at workitem attachment.
For converting to PDF and attachming the pdf to workitem I already have a business object
Can you tell me how you are attaching document to Workflow and how you are triggering workflow on click of Submit button and what is the businees object to send the attachements to workitems.

Drop down list button in the WDP Abap interactive form

Hi Gurus,
I wanted to implement the drop down list button in the WDP Abap interactive form. Once the users clicks on the drop down button, an RFC should be called and display the details under the drop down button. Please give me the logic with code. Its very urgent...please help me. Please note that it is in WDP Abap interactive forms. We are using NW2004S, ECC6.0.

hi david,
all the UI elements in the adobe form are generally connected to your web-dynpro Context.
whatever you type in the online adobe form is reflected in the respective context attributes of the dynpro Context of the view where "ur Interactive form UI element is".
that means you can yourself fill the contents of ur interactive form by working on the get/set methods of the context attributes.
Likewise you can clear the form by setting all context attributes to blank eg ""

ABAP Interactive Form Information/Advice Needed

Hello all. I have some questions for all of the Interactive Form experts out there.
We have a business requirement where we need to do some data collection around Material Master data offline and load the data back into SAP. We are considering using the interactive form solution however there are a couple of general questions that we have. We are currently running Netweaver 2004 WAS 6.40. We have a J2EE Engine up and running with ADS however we are not currently set up to support JAVA Development so our preference is to accomplish this in ABAP. Here are my questions:
1. It is my understanding that you must put "scripts" in the Adobe Form to load the data back into SAP. This functionality is not provided in ABAP. How difficult is it to do this within the form? What is the best approach for the ABAP Functionality needed to load this data back into SAP, BAPI, Web Service, other?
2. Since we do not currently have Web Dynpro available, is it possible to make the form available via some type of web page such as a BSP?
3. Could anyone who has done an ABAP implementation of interactive forms provide some general feedback as to what there experiences are with this?
4. Is it worth the effort to consider a JAVA Web Dynpro solution? We currently do not have any development infrastructure or deep JAVA knowledge in house but if the pros of this approach far outweigh the cons it is something that we might consider.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and points will be rewarded.
Best regards,
Chris Hanshew

Hello Chris,
it is actually possible to generate interactive PDF forms using ABAP (with transaction SFP) in Web AS 6.40. You need to set the flag (F)illable to "X" and then the PDF forms generated with SFP will be interactive.
However to get the data back from the form into the SAP system you will need to do some custom ABAP coding. You will need to decide if you want to get the data back via HTTP, Web Services or E-Mail (all three are supported by PDF forms). Lets assume you just use plain HTTP... In this case put a "HTTP Submit Button" on the form (you can find the Button in the standard Designer library). You configure the HTTP Button with the URL you want to submit the XML data to.
On the Server side you will need to write the ABAP code which can handle the incoming HTTP message, parse the XML and post it to the right BAPI or RFC.
Please keep in mind that you need a license from SAP if you want to use custom interactive PDF forms in production (they are not part of the free functionality in NetWeaver).

Webdynpro for ABAP - Interactive Form property 'Enabled'

Hi All,
I have developed a webdynpro and created a Interactiveform in main view. In Property if i check Enabled the form is not displaying in the output. If I uncheck it 'The form is not interactive (means user input not allowed)'. How can i make the form interactive and display in the output. Hope you guys understood my issue. Please lemme know if you need any further information.
Also Please guide me how can I pass values from attributes of different nodes to 'pdfsource' attribute.
Thanks in advance.
GG
Edited by: GGS on Apr 25, 2010 3:39 PM

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,

ABAP-Interactive forms : Read-Only buttons upon runtime

Hello,
I'm fairly new at this and probably for a good reason I can't find any information pertaining to this issue.
Using the embeded Adobe Lifecycle Designer within SAP using transaction SFP, I go to the layout tab and create a button. On this button a make a simple script that changes the caption.
On the PDF preview I can see that this works, though when I run the program using SE38 the button seems to be read-only and the cursor does not change nor is there any event that is triggered upon clicking.
From what I read this is a dynamic form since there are other tables created dynamically and filled with data upon runtime. I don't believe WebDynpro is involved considering I'm running it from the backend and the ABAP functions forward the parameters directly to this program.
Would anybody be able to tell me why the buttons are read-only at runtime and not in 'PDF Preview'?
Thanks a bunch,
Scott

Hi Sanda,
I set DYNAMIC to 'X' and when the form is generated the buttons are still deactivated.
Although, when I also set the FILLABLE parameter to 'N' a warning message appears telling the user that the form cannot be saved and then the buttons are clickable (and button event scripts are working).
A problem here is that the form needs to be saved, is there a nice way to disable this error and allow the user to save the PDF?
I also noticed another issue; Upon form load some tables are populated, depending on what certain data is, some images are changed via JavaScript. With these current parameters this script seems to not be working. The data has not changed and if I turn off the dynamic/fillable parameters, the script works again, any ideas?
Thanks! I'm almost there!

WD ABAP Interactive forms

Hi,
I want to use IA form in WD abap, I set the templatesource PDF form, and the context node create auto, but there are only the nodes create from PDF form, the attributes under the nodes do not create.
So I should create the attributes by myself or what should I do?
after that what steps should I do? I go through the help docs, but too brief.
can anyone help me?
thanks and best regards
Gang

Hi Gang,
I am wondering how only the nodes are getting created and not the attributes.
In the templateSource property,once you enter the name of the selected form, based on the interface of the selected form, a context node with attributes is
automatically created for the UI element InteractiveForm. The dataSource property of the UI element is automatically bound to this context node.
Can you recheck whether you are using the correct form and whether the interface of that form has the nodes and attributes.
For further information,
kindly go thru the demo here.

How can user attach file to interactive form, and be read by abap program?

Hello,
I created an abap interactive form, sent to the user, then user fills out the form fields, then it is uploaded back to sap, then my program reads this data and process it.
It works.
Now I want users to be able to attach any file they want, and the abap program to extract this file out of the PDF, to put it into SAP (or anywhere).
I succeeded in attaching a file, I can "see" it via function module get_annotations, but I get the file in compressed form by Adobe (filter="FlateDecode").
Do you know how to unzip the file, or is there another way to attach files in adobe reader/extract them via abap?
I use acrobat reader 8.1.2
Thx a lot!
sandra
Below is the xml obtained by GET_ANNOTATIONS. We see that there are other text annotations, and that the attached file has {length="98005"}, though real file (before "attach file" to the PDF, and also after "detach file") has length 111 995 bytes. It's why I deduced that there is a compression (I also tried to extract it as-is and open it with adobe but it doesn't work.

Hello everybody,
I am sure you have an answer to my question above. It was :
how is it possible for a user to ATTACH files to a PDF interactive form, and then be able to READ them via a program ? (I guess the solution to read them via ABAP or JAVA is quite the same?)
Thx a lot !

Submit button on Adobe Interactive form does not send data back to ABAP

The integration of my ABAP View and Adobe works fine getting data into the form. The form is interactive and I am able to change the data. I am using ZCI and the XML Context. I display the FirstName attribute both on the ABAP View, and the Adobe Form. When I press the SUBMIT button the first time, it disables that button, but the ABAP View is not updated. I have an ONACTION event, but it doesn't get triggered at all.
Here are my specs:
Adobe Reader 8.1.1. Local
Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.01.3250.1.491864
NetWeaver 7.0 SP19
HR Support Pack 48 and Enhancement Pack 2

Hi all,
I assume the ZCI script included in the form (800.20070410093956.383622.376748 ) is too old (I guess it's from SP13 or14).
In general, I propose the following to analyze/fix these kind of problems (Web Dynpro ABAP only):
1. Check the tracefile (available from SAP NetWeaver 700 SP19): Add "&sap-wd-clientDebug=X" to the application URL and open the trace by typing <CTRL><ALT><SHIFT>T (see note 999998 too):
-> Watch for an entry "Got a message from Adobe Reader: zciReady 1: 2: 3:". If this line doesn't appear => ZCI script too old, go on with step 2
-> Watch for an entry "Got a message from Adobe Reader: zciVersion 1: 800....". That's the version of the ZCI script included in the form
-> Watch for entries containing "sendDataToServer" and "responseFromServer": If you can't find these entries, something went wrong transferring the form data to the ABAP server: Watch out for entries containing "Error", there might be a network problem.
2. Execute report FP_PDF_TEST_00 to find out the used ADS version: The corresponding ADS version of SP19 is 800.20090130093518.519793 or 800.20090608122643.560369 (look at the second part of the version string. It's a timestamp: The ZCI script included in the form is from April 2007, the ADS version of SP19 is from January/June 2009!
-> Update the ADS or patch the ADS (see notes 999998, 1229392 and 956074)
3. optional step: Have a look at note 999998, section "related notes" (this is the complete list of available notes for Web Dynpro ABAP Interactive Forms integration): Install all notes available for your release/SP - or even better: Update SAP NetWeaver (SAP_BASIS) to the latest available SP
4. Update the ZCI script of the form using transaction SFP_ZCI_UPDATE
5. Repeat step 1, I'm pretty sure that it will work now!
Regards,
Ralf

Submit button in Interactive form WDA

Hi All,
I have created one WD ABAP interactive form using one BAPI. I have placed one Submit button on the form which is of type (webdynpro native). And i have defined on action in WD. But when I click on submit button the action is not trigerring. I tried even with Webdynpro Active x type but still no use.
How can I link the button in form to action?
With Regards,
Ravi

Ravi,
There is onSubmit event in Web Dynpro where you can create your own method for data processing.
If you have set displayType as native then you should be using Submit button from WD Native Library in Designer.
Once you place the button on the form, check if following script is present in the click event of button in Script editor of Designer or not.
// DO NOT MODIFY THE CODE BEYOND THIS POINT - SubmitToSAP.xfo
ContainerFoundation_JS.SendMessageToContainer(event.target, "submit", "", "", "", "");
// END OF DO NOT MODIFY
Also check Control Type in Object Palette for the button. It should be Regular.

New forum area for Adobe Interactive forms

Would it be possible to create a separate thread for the adobe interactive forms? Most of the conversations are under the webdynpro forum, but because people refer to this area by so many different names (adobe, ADS, interactive forms) it is really difficult to do a search for anything specific. (also, you cannot distingquish a post between ABAP interactive forms and Webdynpro interactive forms until you are deep into the message).
I think enough folks are starting to use interactive forms that we can get some good topics going!
Also note: the adobe homepage on SDN needs more visibility. It is buried under too many links. I had to email Matthias Zeller to get the url. I lost patience after about 20 minutes of searching.
thanks!
brenda

A last thought/comment:
I just went to the WAS homepage. The link is under FEATURED CONTENT under the black/bold heading Interactive Forms.
I would not equate the adobe home page as "featured content". Now that I have been told, I can find it, but I spent 20 minutes using the forum search to find it and the results were mostly to the help.sap.com links. Maybe a title change under quick links might make it more intuitive.
thanks for the opportunity to rant a bit.
