Adobe Form: Dynamic vlaue for Include text name. Script Coding

Hi,
Situtation:
Need to print an 'Include Text' in the Adobe form.
The key texname for the include name is dynamic - invoice number + position number.
I have created a Global Data variable item_textkey and assigned it to the inculde textname in 'Context'.
The Problem is I dont know how or where to assign a value to this global data variable at runtime, so the right include text is pulled up.
I tried the code in the "FormCalc' of the text field. But it doesnt work.
$record.ITEM_TEXTKEY = Concat ($record.IS_VBDKR.VBELN, $record.IS_VBDPR.POSNR)

Try the following in initialize event of the main subform
$record.ITEM_TEXTKEY.rawValue = Concat ($record.IS_VBDKR.VBELN.rawValue, $record.IS_VBDPR.POSNR.rawValue)

Adobe Form - Data Binding for static text

Hi Experts,
I'm trying to create a new label with Adobe Forms (not interactive).
So I've created an interface with a table LABEL_DATA (import) and many variables (import) and a new Form with Layout.
I tried to bind some text fields with the imported variables und fields from the table, they're all available in the context, but all fields are still empty (preview and print).
Field are Text Fields
Type is : Read Only
Data Binding is : $record.LABEL_DATA.KDMAT
Can someone please help me?
Thank you.
Regards,
David

Hello David,
In your interface, have you declared LABEL_DATA as GLOBAL Data ?
You can fill the table and variables in the INITIALISATION in the interface.
Then you can use the Global table and variables in the form.
In case you are missing some values; you can debug the code in INITIALISATION section. Get the import tables in INITIALISATION and filter the required values into Global Table and variables.

Call for adobe form is going for dump for multiple users

hi,
i am calling an adobe form in a program i.e. for multiple users. now my problem is.....
3 people are using same tcode to generate the adobe form output for different data. but when they click at a time on the button to generate the adobe output, then adobe form is coming for only one user and it is going for dump for other users.
and this dump is coming because of exception "CX_FP_API_INTERNAL" in funtion module FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME which i am using to get the function module name of the adobe form in my program.
can u please give me some solution to rectify this issue....

That's nothing!
An engineer and I contacted Adobe technical support by phone to ensure the PC I was having custom built was configured to its optimum. They advised XP64 as the best operating environment. After that discussion we had to completely revise procurement, etc to get the bits and compatible XP64 compatible software, putting the build project back a few weeks as well, Imagine how I laughed when I found out on one of these forums that XP64 is the worst choice and totally unsupported by CS4!
I have written to Shantanu Narayen, Adobe CEO and didn't even get an acknowledgement I raised this last week on the Adobe stand at BVE and was told they'd get someone to contact me asap but guess what, niet...! To be fair there has been one Adobe executive that recognises the problem and the damage poor customer support is causing the company; he has been as helpful as he can. Unfortunately, it seems the overall Adobe culture at the top is "get the money and run". If your problem goes beyond what's already on their web pages, tough luck!

To make TEXT field in adobe forms dynamic

Hi Experts,
I have requirement in adobe forms where based on certain condition I want change the TEXT field accordingly.
Example if material number in of gas type than text will be "GAS MATERIAL" and then populating corresponding material number.
If itu2019s of hard goods type than text has be "HARD GOODS MATERIAL".
Please let me how this requirement can be achieved ASAP.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Aks.

Hi,
Yes you can definitely make a field dynamic. Bind the text fields with varibale of type Material Number and its description which will have to create in the context (Interface) of the adobe forms. These values you can pass from your driver program or Web-Dynpro.

Adobe Forms: Best way for logging?

Hi,
we're using Adobe Forms having very complex forms partially.
Because of it's complexity, the implementation is not free from defects. That's why I thought about proper logging of what users do within the form.
What's the best way to achieve this?
I thought of console messages - but this would require the user to send us the document in case of an error.
I also thought of writing a logging file in a central directory that all users have access to. But I don't know if this is even possible?
Does anyone have experience with proper logging of user actions in forms?
Thanks and BR Matthias

Something not secret could be a report button which generates information ready for the user to copy/paste into an email. Not sure of the best way to offer a large body of copyable text, any ideas?
A dialog box with a large, multi-line text field, where you can place the text and the user can copy it to an email and send to you. You can even generate the blank email message using a launchURL and a mailto command.

Adobe Form - Object property for FormCalc/Javascript

Hi All
I'm learning to use Adobe Form - FormCalc/Javascript - In some of the examples that I have seen fofar
the codes (FormCalc/Javascript) used a qualified name of an object property for setting value i.e.
In FormCalc:
DateTimeField1.rawValue = num2date(date(), DateFmt(3))
In Javascript:
this.rawValue = xfa.layout.pageCount();
pantsWaist.border.edge.color.value = "255,0,0";
pantsLength.presence = "hidden"
etc..
Could someone please tell me how/where I can get the property list that available for an object ?
(i.e. rawValue, presence, value etc...) I can't see on the Form builder (sorry for such a novice question - but as I said I am very new)
Thanks
Points will be rewarded for any reply -

Hi Liem,
Whenever u press a "." after any oject say $ in FormCalc, or this in Javascript u will find relative properties that u can set at that time for the mentioned object.
try this, place a Text field, select that and go to script editor, select language FormCalc:
write $. and u will find a dropdown that'll show u possible list of properties u can change.
Similarly, if u try this with "this." in JavaScript another dropdown will show u possible list of properties that u can change.
Hope this helps

Adobe Form - dynamic object selection/control

Hi,
I am very new to using the Acrobat Form building tool. I am currently using it in conjunction with Adobe LifeCycle designer 8.
I would like to create a form which behaves like an xHTML doc, and client-side JavaScript.
I would like to be able to create groups of objects (Text, textboxes, comboboxes, etc), that can be shown or hidden depending on user selection/input in a different control/object. This is a pretty general question, but I am having difficulty finding documentation on how to approach.
This may be more difficult. The form will live in a folder on a shared drive. When the user completes and submits the form, I need for it to do the following:
Email to a specific address, depending on a user selection of a combobox value on the form.
Then create a copy of itself in a subfolder in the same shared drive, with a dynamically generated unique title/id (like a database key field).
Are any of these things possible. I would probably just create an xHTML form to do this, but currently we do not have a web server available to house such a form. And the portability of the Acrobat forms seems useful and practical in the long run.
If someone could point me in the right direction, website and/or online PDF publication, I would be ever so grateful.
Thanks so much for your help.
Kind regards,
Jessica

>I am very new to using the Acrobat Form building tool. I am currently using it in conjunction with Adobe LifeCycle designer 8.
This doesn't seem to relate to Create PDF Online, a web service from
Adobe. I recommend the LiveCycle Designer forum.
Bear in mind that e-mail submission of PDFs is really, in my view, a
tool for testing. Any serious usage would use a web server, just like
an HTML form.

Adobe Form in ABAP not showing texts

Hello all,
I have created an Adobe form to output a specific form with data from some import fields and from an internal table.
During the layout of the form I put some of these import fields, which are character fields of various lengths on the form. I also fill the caption details but when testing the form only the values passed are shown and the caption is missing.
Also with the headings of my table, they're not shown.
To get passed the initial problem I used a text with a floating field to show the data values. But I can't get why I can't see my table headers, does anyone have any suggestions?
Each cell is of type text and to get text in there, I right clicked the cell and chose edit text...
I will reward points for successful answers

Hi Anto,
I can only see the text at design time. In print preview it's just blank or when I print it. I really don't know what else to do with it. The values do come through from the parameters and data passed through because the table displays correctly as well as the floating text variables. Any ideas?
Thanks
Wayne

How to handle Adobe Form - Dynamic Tables.

Experts:
I am new to Web DynPro for ABAP and Adobe Interactive forms.
I have created a Adobe form with dynamic table. When I submit the form, WD4A is able to read only the first row of the table. Other rows are getting lost.
I thought just binding with the context will trasfer data from Adobe to WD4A. But it is not happending.
Do I need to write any code in WD4A and any script in Adobe Designer?
Can any one send me a sample code (ABAP and JavaScript). Even link to that will be very useful.
Thanks,
Vijai

How to configure adobe forms in OMLV for printing picking slip

Hello,
I want to configure a adobe form in OMLV transaction. But there is no column for putting adobe forms.
Can you tell me how do configure adobe forms for getting it printed from standard transaction whenever a transfer order is created.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ajay,
You are completely right that you cannot find anything with smartform in the customizing (OMLV). The reason for it: It is not there. It not even exists. Also the latest version of rlvsdr40 has nothing standard concerning smartforms.
I do not know why it is really necessary to use adobe or smartforms.
The only way is to build a new one (ZRLVSDR40). In that new one you have to use the sapscriptname (from OMLV)and treat it as a smartform- name.
I hope my explanation helps. Success.
Gr., Frank

Weird character 'u00A4' display at output of ADOBE form in SAP for amount

When display pattern for amount field is set for ADOBE form in SAP, output displays ' ¤ '.
All display patterns shows '$' at the begining, but when output is generated it displays '¤'.
Advice me how to eliminate this. (or)
Is there a way to hide this character.

I am not saying this is your problem BUT I was troubled for quite a while by having unprintable characters imbedded within text fields. It turns out that Ctrl V character was being embedded within text by user.
So I suggest that you view the data while in debug and do it in hex. This was the only way I was able to see that I had a problem with the text itself. Then I was able to add logic to filter for these errors.

Formatting ADOBE forms dynamically

I am creating a pricing letter in ADOBE forms which will be called through an ABAP program. I want to change formatting of some of the fields dynamically on the basis of fields values. e,g. If I want to change Font size or color of the fields on the basis of field value how can I do this?

The example I gave you above is FormCalc scipting. As far as documentation, I am not aware of a any site that has the events and properties documented. I, like yourself, had a difficult time figuring out the syntax for dynamically changing properties. I have a training class book that I got from one of my colleagues which has helped some. AdobeForms does not have a debugging tool as far as I know. I will be happy to help you out if I can but I am by no means an expert.

How to Change the Visible property of Adobe Form Dynamically - URGENT

Hi,
    I am woking on a scenario where when I click a button in Adobe Form,
another Adobe Form should be displayed. This is using Web Dynpro Java.
For this I have made the second form invisible and I want to make this VISIBLE when the button is Clicked. I am unable to get a method where this property of interactive form can be changed.
Also, If there is any other way this can be done please let me know.
I am using NWDS 7.0.09 with Adobe Live cycle designer 7.1.
Thanks in Advance,
Vasu

You need to get the handler to the adobe form in your webdynpro program. If you are using webdynpro for java the following code snipped could be useful...
IWDPDFDocumentInteractiveFormHandler iFormHandler = WDPDFDocumentFactory.getDocumentHandler(wdThis.wdGetAPI(),"YourAdobeForm");
     // Get appearance setter.
     IWDPDFDocumentAppearance appearance =
          iFormHandler.getDocumentContext().getAppearance();
     //appearance.
     // Set page layout option
     appearance.setPageLayout(pageLayoutOption);
     // Set show option.
     appearance.setShowOption(showOption);
     // Hide menu bar.
     appearance.hideMenuBar(true);
     // Hide tool bars.
     appearance.hideToolBars(true);
     // Hide window controls.
     appearance.hideWindowControl(true);
     // Show full screen.
     appearance.showFullScreen(true);

ADOBE form - page reset for the second SO

Hi all,
Iam working on sales order form ( ADOBE Form). Nneed to display SO header and item details.But it is not for a single SO and it is for multiple SOs.First i need to display one sales order and its items after completing the all items of the first SO , the second SO details should come in the next page. This is fine, i have done this, but for the second SO the page numbers should start from 1. That means the page no has to be reset for each SO change.Suppose assume that, if the first SO is taking 2 pages for printing item details and second SO is taking 3 pages for printing item details then the page nos should follows the below sequence:
First SO : 1 of 2
                2 of 2
second SO : 1 of 3
                    2 of 3
                    3 of 3.
but it is printing as 1 of 5, 2 of 5 ..... like this. Because we are using the system field for this.Can we reset the page numbers according to the condition?
Regards ,
Vineel.

Hi,
One addition to the previous answer. You need to set the Output device in the program itself and the nodialog field of the outputparams should be set to 'X'. For example you can go through the below code.
DATA:
w_formname TYPE fpname,
w_function TYPE funcname.
DATA : docparams TYPE sfpdocparams.
DATA : formoutput TYPE fpformoutput.
DATA : outputparams TYPE sfpoutputparams.
DATA:
      BEGIN OF fs_orders,
        vbeln TYPE vbak-vbeln,
      END OF fs_orders,
      t_orders LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF fs_orders.
SELECT vbeln
FROM vbak
INTO TABLE t_orders
    UP TO 5 ROWS.
CHECK sy-subrc EQ 0.
w_formname = 'YH297_FORM_SALESORDER'.

E_INTERFACE_TYPE           =
outputparams-dest = 'PDF1'.
outputparams-nodialog = 'X'.
LOOP AT t_orders INTO fs_orders.
