Adjustable footer in Adobe forms

Hi Gurus
Need your help in adobe forms. I am converting the sap-script debit note to adobe forms. my problem is after the line item display the subtotal total and signature should come after with the line items. what i did right now is that the subtotal, total and signature is stable in the footer area which is wrong. what i want is adjustable. like example if i have 2 line items the footer should be in the middle part then if example 10 items in footer in lower part. It depends on how many is the line items.
line 1
line 2
liine 3
                   Subtotal
                    total
                    Signature
line 1
line 2
line 3
                   Subtotal --> should be like this
                    total
                    Signature
thanks in advance,

Hi Sandra,
sorry for that and the late reply. here is the feedback for the benefit of the other. I apply what the replies stated. and to make the footer adjustable it should be put in a WRAP SUBFORM by right clicking the nodes in heirarchy view then in the object pallete there is a option for FLOWED/POSTION then it works for FLOWED. thanks.
best regards to all.

How to align footer in Adobe form

Hi experts,
    I required your urgent help for my development. I made a adobe form for customer ledger. Form is divided in 3 parts as shown in below image:
Header sub form will print on each page if form is more than one page. Then Body will grow to multiple page according data. Next is footer, it will print on last page (either last page is 1st or 4th page) positioned bottom. The problem is that in some situation. Like it prints Header, then prints body sub-form for open item. It grow according data. suppose that open item end on second page then footer should be placed on second page at bottom aligned. Footer sub-form is 2 inches( or 10-12 rows) in height. It should be checked that after end of body subform how much space is available. if there enough space for footer to be print then footer will print on same page other wise it will create one more page, at top of that page will print header sub-form and then at bottom aligned footer sub-form (there would be blank space between header and footer).
How to do that. Your help would be appreciate.
Please reply asap.
Thanks and Regards

Hello Experts,
I am describing it little more.
Table will auto increas row depending on data. We can not fix it's row. Second thing if table have only 2 records then footer will place just below table end. It will not align footer at bottom Margin.So there would be space between Footer and bottom margin.
      I have to do that it first get how much space is available after table (body subform), if there is 10-12 lines space available then it will print the footer. If there is no much space then it will create one more page and at that page header (sub-form) would be align at top margin and footer (subform) would be align at bottom margin. There would not be any blank table.
condition:1
Header Subform                                                                   |

Header and Footer in not displaying correctly on each page in Adobe Forms

Hi experts,
   I need your little help on Adobe Form. I have develop a customer account statement and facing problem.
     In header and footer part I have to display customer address. It is ok if data is of one page. But when data is overflowing, customer address is showing only at first page in header, and not displaying address neither in header nor in footer(footer section will print on last page, it may be either first page or third page ) on other pages. (Address is table type data )
       Header and footer Section address has been designed on Master Page.
Please help me to resolve these two problems as soon as possible.
Regards
Piyush

I found this post which I hope helps:
This can be done by bit of tweaking using JavaScript.
Actually the problem was, the header was printing continuously in subsequent pages and once the header data was over the rest of the pages contained blank header. But we need have to print same header for each group of items till that group of items finish in the specific page. And for new group of items different header will be filled and so on.
So to overcome this issue, create the item table in such a way that the header data is also included in the item table for each group of items. In the layout, select your header field and the event READY LAYOUT and write the below JavaScript code. This event is called for each page for that header field, so you can directly map the item table value and put it in your header field.
// Get the current page
var currpage = xfa.layout.page(this);
// variable to store number of fields in that page.
var fields = 0;
// Get the number of fields
        fields = xfa.layout.pageContent(currpage-1, "field", 0);
// Loop on each field on the page
        for ( i=0; i<= fields.length-1; i++ )
// Check if the field is in the item table column (it will be actually header data column in your item table)
            if ( fields.item(i).name == "TL" )
// Fetch that value and store in your header field.
                       this.rawValue = fields.item(i).rawValue;

These forms are not embedded correctly. I'm surprised they even work. You need to go to the distribute tab, click Embed button, copy the embed code provided and then paste that into your HTML.

Multiple rows in a single table cell - Adobe forms

Dear All
I am developing an adobe form which conatins a table alongwith other screen/ form elements.
This table is bound to a data node and contains only two columns. Number of rows will be determined at run time.
Each cell of the table will contain three rows seperated by a space in between them. Please refer to the diagram below for more understanding.
Yes
ABC
No
PQR
Not Known
XYZ
I have no idea how to achieve this. Can anyone help?
Regards
Vineet Vikram

Hi,
Here are the steps how you can do it.
1. Create a table.
2. In the Library palette, click the Standard category and drag the Table object into a cell in the main table.
Note: If you selected Donu2019t Show This Again in the Insert Table dialog box, when you select the Table object from the Library palette, LiveCycle Designer automatically inserts a table with the same number of columns and rows that you inserted the last time you used the Insert Table dialog box.
3. In the Insert Table dialog box, enter the number of columns and rows. You can enter a maximum of 20 columns and 50 rows. You can add more columns and rows after the table is created by using the Insert commands on the Table menu.
4. To add a header row, select Include Header Row In Table.
5. To add a footer row, select the Include Footer Row In Table.
6. Click OK.

How to avoid printing a balnk page at the end in the Adobe form output

Hello Experts,
Can anyone please let me know as how to avoid/delete the blank page at the end of adobe form output.
I have a master page with header n footer and a body page seperate.
For ex.. I have 3 line items and i want each line item to be displayed in the new page. I am able to get this functionality . I have set the settings in the paginationb tab of the subform as
"after " Go to Next content Area" " but an extra page is getting printed at the end. 3 + 1 extra pages total. I want to avoid this blank page. I have checked the Allow page break with in content box but it is still not working.
Can someone guide me as how to solve this problem.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mahesh

hey mahesh,
this normally happens because of triggering a new page manually, what u would have done is that you would be checking for the new line item and when this condition is satisfied , you are triggering a new page , the reason for the last blank page is that the condition gets satisfied ( beacuse the line item number changes from the last line item no to initial or space).
This can be handled by doing the following
By knowing the number of line items by the following stmt.
describe table itab lines v_lines.
Now you have the value in v_lines.
use a counter in ur form and keep it increasing it by 1 ( say v_sno ) ie v_sno = v_sno + 1 in the loop of ur internal table.
ONLY WHEN V_LINES IS LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO V_SNO , TRIGGER THE NEW PAGE
this should be along with the condition which u have already put, ie when ever line item no changes
when both these conditions are satisfied , then only the new page will be triggered.
Hope it helps,
Reward if useful,

KP.

Version Control for adobe forms

Dear All,
We have a situation where we already go live with version 0 of our adobe form. Now, we have an enhancement to the form i.e.: some new functionalities and new field. Previously we have tried to transport the new changes to the production without any version control and those processes that have been already started prior to the new changes encounter error when the user continues the process.
I am wondering how do the version control works and any documentation on how to configure it?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Bryan

Hi Brian,
Here is some information that I found in the IMG on Create ISR Scenario...
Create ISR Scenario
Use
In this IMG activity, you create an ISR scenario that has a one-to-one relationship with a form scenario. To be able to use a form scenario in a process, one ISR scenario must exist for each form scenario. The ISR scenario and the form scenario must be linked with each other. You make this setting in Customizing for HR Administrative Services in the IMG activity Link ISR Scenario with Form Scenario.
In the form scenario, you define primarily the basic set of form fields and their processing through the backend services. In the ISR scenario, you specify the definition of the user interface. You also specify which form is used for the display and how the layout of this interactive form is designed. You use interactive forms based on Adobe software to create and process the forms.
ISR scenarios and form scenarios are version dependent. The version numbers of the ISR scenario are assigned automatically. Note that a form scenario must have exactly the same version as the linked ISR scenario. For this reason, you should always create a new version in the ISR scenario first and then use the same version number when you create a version in the form scenario manually.
Note
If an ISR scenario or form scenario (with an existing version) has already been used in a productive process, you should not change the configuration. If you want to make changes to a process or an ISR scenario or form scenario, you should always create a new version, and only ever use that new version in the future. In this way, processes that have been started can be concluded with the old version and new processes can be started simultaneously with the new version.
This is from the Create Form Scenario documentation...
Create version
Form scenarios are version dependent, which means that there is at least one version of each form scenario. Versions are linked with processes. Since processes can vary, you must also be able to adjust the associated scenarios. To be able to provide different forms for process variants, you create versions.
You can still process and change an existing version at a later point in time. Once a version has been used to execute a process, you should not make any more changes to this version; instead, you should create a new version.
The form scenario and the (linked) ISR scenario are both version dependent. They must always have exactly the same version numbers. Note that the version number of the ISR scenario is generated and cannot be entered manually. When you create a new version in the form scenario, you therefore have to use the version number generated in the ISR scenario.
If you have already made extensive Customizing settings for the form scenario and want to create a new version based on the settings, you should use the IMG activity Manage Form Scenario.
Hope this helps...
Cheers,
Kevin

Reducing the Text height in Adobe Forms

I have a text field which I have included for the long text of me22n transaction in the context node of Adobe forms. In the form I want to adjust the maximum height of the text field using java script or any other way, as in I do not want to print the text if it exists for more than 3 lines?

You need to implement a "flowed" design. the concept of flowed means that your field/subform/form expands as your data grows.
To do this, inserrt a subform and mark it as flowed (Top to Bottom), then drop in a text box and bind it to your input field.
In your text box's properties, make sure you allow Multiple Lines, and in your Layout pallette make sure Expand to Fit checkboxes are checked.
your field will grow or shrink depending on your input data.
EDIT: if you want to hide your field, you need to use formcalc or javascript. you need to check some value (whatever that is, is up to you) then hide your field.
if (BUSINESS_UNIT eq "G/A" ) then
COMM_DLY_COSTS.presence = "hidden"
endif
