Adobe Form field display based on user

Dear Friends
   I am creating one form. which has the three fields :
   1) Telephone:
   2) Email:
   3) Portal Id:
   My work scenario is when form reaches via workflow to Telefone person he / she only can enter data in the telephone field where he / she cant enter data in email and portal id field and this for all the fields like email guy has access to enter data only in email and portal will be for portal id, except concern person's field all other fields become read only.
I have design the form and successfully trigger it via UWL as well. but all the field are allow to enter data as i dont know how to controll them. I have the role in my bsp's controller do_init method but dont know how to utilize this info to set as read-only for non concern users.
Is ther any way to achieve this please tell me how I can achieve this functionality. your any help will be appreciated.
Thanking you
Regards
Naeem

Dear Chintan
 Thank you very much for your reply.. i incorporated your solution in following wat
---------data.#subform[0].TextField3::ready:form - (FormCalc, Client)-------------------------------
<---- this is the line two and column 1
if(ROLE1 == "TEL") //form1.page1 - indicates you form hierarchy so change it accordingly.
 form1.page1.phone.access = "open";
 form1.page1.email.access = "readOnly";
 form1.page1.portal.access = "readOnly";
else if (ROLE1 == "EMAIL")
 form1.page1.phone.access = "readOnly";
 form1.page1.email.access = "open";
 form1.page1.portal.access = "readOnly";
else if(ROLE1 == "PORTAL")
 form1.page1.phone.access = "readOnly";
 form1.page1.email.access = "readOnly";
 form1.page1.portal.access = "open";
I am receiving the following error at line 2 and column 1
" Script Failed ( language is FormClac;contex is xfa[0].form[0].data[0].#subform3[0].textField3)
Error syntax error near token '{' on line 2 column 1. could you please tell me where i m making mistake.
I am not using the sub-form.
for your information what I am doing is:
I have 7 input fields:
Form receives the values for the following fields from the BSP Page controller (do_request).
field 1 pernr ( read only)
field 2 emp_name (read only)
field 7 role1 (invisible)
by this function module
call function l_name
 exporting
 /1bcdwb/docparams = fp_docparams
 pernr = emp_id
 emp_name = emp_name
 role1 = role1
 importing
 /1bcdwb/formoutput = fp_result
 exceptions
Form fields which properties need to be set on role
Field3 Telephone
Field4 Mobile (same as telephone and optional so not important)
Field5 Email

How to make form field read only for users with certain permissions

We need to make two form fields read only for users with certain permissions. Kindly guide me on how to do this in Infopath. I searched and there is an option to disable to the column, but no option to select user permissions.
Please give your suggestion on this.
thanks.

Hi,
See the link below:
http://info.akgroup.com/blog-0/bid/69277/InfoPath-Restrict-visibility-to-users-in-a-SharePoint-Group
Here you can add the fomatting action on the field to disable the field if those users belong to certain Sharepoint group (does not matter the permission levels though). Hope it helps.

Want to use Adobe forms departmentally. How many users per license?

How many people can use Adobe Forms per license/how many computers can we download software to?

Adobe FormsCentral is a web-based app so there is nothing to download - you access from the web browser.
Each users who creates forms needs a license of FormsCentral. In a month or so you'll be able to by a team pack (5,10,25) at reduces prices for a larger group who wants to create forms.

Acrobat form field that allows Reader user to browse and insert a picture into a predefined area

Is there a way to do insert a form field into an AcroForm that allow Reader users to browse and insert a picture into that form field?
I know that LiveCycle can do this, but I need to do this using an AcroForm. Or maybe there's a third-party plug-in that can be used in an AcroForm to do this?

Jay,
The new version of Reader, which was announced today (see AcrobatUsers.com), will now allow you to use the field.buttonImportIcon method: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.737.html
For a bit more information, see: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/743823
Here's the minimum code that can be used in the Mouse Up event of a button that's configured with a layout that's something other than "Label only":
// Mouse Up script for a button
event.target.buttonImportIcon();
Since this isn't backwards compatible with Reader, you'll probably want to add additional code to test what version is being used and alert the user if it's pre-11. You should also check the return value to see if anything went wrong. The hard part is getting everyone to upgrade, but this and a number of other features should make it worth it.

Single Record Form: fields display with the wrong width

I'm laying out fields on a single record form and notice that the width of the fields displayed when I run the form is less than the width I specify on the "Edit Page Item" page. Here are 3 examples:
field 1: Display as=text, Width=100, Maximum Width=100, ==> displayed width=76
field 2: Display as=text, Width=50, Maximum Width=50, ==> displayed width=46
field 3: Display as=textarea Width=100 Maximum Width=100 ==> displayed width=100
Anyone know why this is happening? I'm trying to layout the form so that it has a pleasing look. It's hard to get the fields lined up when they don't display according to the widths specified.

Setting the Width of the Page Item sets the input elements "size" attribute. HTML rendering based on size attribute is not a precise as you need. You should use CSS for precision. See Compatibility Notes

Form Field Display Only

Is there anyway within ADDT to specify a form field that is input on insert but display only on update? Marking the field read-only makes it so for both. I would like to let the user input the data, not be able to change it, but still see it for reference.

If I understood correctly you want to allow the user to input data on insert but only be able to see the field value on update. You can make a form field available on insert/update/or both and have it display as text (so that the user can see if for reference but not be able to change it) by clicking on the Manage Dynamic Form wizard icon in the Developer Toolbox bar and changing the corresponding settings.
 These options however don't cover your scenario as you want the field to be editable on insert only. I tried tweaking the generated ADDT code but it didn't work. The only other way to do this that I can think of would be to add the read-only attribute dynamically, that is on update only. The code to add to the field would simply be:
 <%If Request.QueryString("ID") <> "" Then Response.Write("readonly='readonly'")%>. This code simply checks to see if a record ID is being passed to the dynamic form page and if it is then we know we're on an update page so the readonly field attribute is added (I code in VBScript so the code might be slightly different in your case).

Hi Flavien Gagoum
In Adobe form, there are two types of forms are available.
1. Static (Which can not be changed)
2. Interactive (Which can be chaged, and we can make some / Many fiels disabled)
So for your case, try to use Static form, hope you have used interactive form.
Thanks and Regards

Using comment tools in adobe form fields

Is there any way to enable commenting tools so they work within pdf form fields? I have created a pdf form, and as part of the review process (once the form is completed), other users need to be able to use commenting features on the text entered into the form fields (i.e. highlighting, strikethrough, etc.). I haven't found any way to do this within the fields themselves.

Acrobat can flatten all form fields / comments via Preflight (which lives in the Print Production tool pane) - select "single fixups" - the wrench icon - then type "flatten" in the search box to find the "Flatten all form fields" fixup, and run it.
You can also flatten everything via the JS console. Press Ctrl-J to open the console, clear it with the trash icon, enter the command this.flattenPages() and press ENTER.
If you want more control over what is flattened, we have a free add-on for Acrobat here.
Note that you cannot flatten a Reader-extended document, so you must first use the File > Save a Copy menu item to de-extend your form.
Once flattened it's no longer a form, so the field values become part of the page (and can receive annotation markup). However to allow markup in Reader, you will have to re-extend the PDF usage rights.

How to set number of Rows of a table to be displayed based on user action?

Hi Experts,
I am getting data into the table. But only 5 records are displayed default. I want it to be a user selection.
If user wishes to see 10 records, then first 10 records should get displayed. If user selects 'n' records then 'n' records should get displayed..
How to achieve this?
Regards,
Yugesh A.

hi Yugesh ,
1 create a input field UI
2 bind its value property to a attribute
3 suppose ca_check attribute ( type string ) under node cn_check is binded
read this in ur doinit of the view
DATA lo_nd_cn_check TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
DATA lo_el_cn_check TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
DATA ls_cn_check TYPE wd_this->element_cn_check.
DATA lv_ca_check LIKE ls_cn_check-ca_check.
* navigate from <CONTEXT> to <CN_CHECK> via lead selection
lo_nd_cn_check = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_cn_check ).
* get element via lead selection
lo_el_cn_check = lo_nd_cn_check->get_element( ).
* get single attribute
lo_el_cn_check->get_attribute(
 EXPORTING
 name = `CA_CHECK`
 IMPORTING
 value = lv_ca_check ).
4 nw for ur table , make a another context attribute of type either string or I , say attr1
bind its visiblerowcount property of table to attr1
5 make a attribute in ATTRIBUTES tab of type string , say attribute
set its value to lv_ca_check in doinit itself
wd_this->attribute = lv_ca_Check
6 nw in the method , where u need to validate how m,any rows user enter or doinit itself , set attr1 to the value of that attribute created under ATTRIBUTES tab ( named attribute)
DATA : lv_count type string .
lv_count = wd_this->attribute
7 nw its very simple , set attr1 to lv_count , as it contains the count of the number which has entered in the input field
DATA lo_nd_cn_check TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
DATA lo_el_cn_check TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
DATA ls_cn_check TYPE wd_this->element_cn_check.
DATA attr1 LIKE ls_cn_check-ca_check.
* navigate from <CONTEXT> to <CN_CHECK> via lead selection
lo_nd_cn_check = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_cn_check ).
* get element via lead selection
lo_el_cn_check = lo_nd_cn_check->get_element( ).
* set single attribute
lo_el_cn_check->set_attribute(
 EXPORTING
 name = `attr1`
 value = lv_count ).
I hope it shud help

Round trip clearing adobe form field values not binded to webdynpro context

Hi ,
I have developed a webdynpro ABAP application with Interactive form. I'm calling a webservice on 'exit event' of the one of the form fields. Once webservice is executed, Im filling a table with 300 rows which is in the form. The table fileds are binded to webservice fields from the dataview of the form , these are not webdynpro context attributes in the data view.
But when I open any seach help , this table values are disappearing. I need to execute the webservice again to get the values.
can any one tell why the values in the table are disappearing? since I have binded to the webservice fields the values should remain there.
Apprecaite your response.
Regards,
Ravi

I looked over that note yesterday, but too quickly - i thought it was an older note explaining which standard programs to run to test out the connection etc...
but i see now that there is an important point:
The "pdfSource" attribute of the InteractiveForm UI element should be linked only if the Web Dynpro ABAP application requires the PDF document for further processing (saving data to the database, and so on). However, it is mostly only the data entered in the interactive form that is relevant for the application. If this attribute is linked, the Web Dynpro ABAP framework must request an updated PDF document from the Adobe document services each time data is changed in the form.
It looks like this is saying that a round trip is possible in WDA.
EDIT - I wish SAP would fix this certificate issue. My first post every day is doubled because of it.
