Adobe form for leave request

Dear experts,
There is no standard leave request form provided by SAP. We are developing an adobe form which lists the employee's quota and leaves taken earlier along with the current leave details. This form should be displayed to the approvers from the leave workflow.
When the approver clicks on the work item, the leave request form should popup. There are two technical challenges in this requirement -
1. This requirement is similar to the standard ones for travel request and expense request - In travel request and expense request, SAP has provided standard forms and the workflow container is a standard importing parameter in these adobe forms. This container is helpful in deriving most of the content on the adobe form. However, there is no such link in case of leave request. How does the workflow information be passed to the adobe form? ( i will have to display employee details, quota, current leave, approvers list, approvers comments, etc).
2. For leave request, the approval task is TS12300097 that has "Java Webdynpro" as visualization type. Whereas for travel and expense workflow approval tasks, the visualization type is "ABAP Webdynpro". I am assuming the "JAVA WD" will make it really tough to call the adobe form from the work item.
Any thoughts, suggestions on this requirement will be of great help.
Thanks

Hi Abdul
which version u r currently working on?? check in swfvisu t-code where you can find the below task
I'm not that good at technical level, but still I try to help you with my limited knowledge.Instead of trying from binding rule, try with Function Module via BOR Object Method. you can get that function module at the time Adobe form creation. Can't you consider that Adobe form as a attachment in the work item???

Adobe form for Purchase request

Hi,
can any body suggest me what is or is there the interactive adobe form for purchase request (tcode ME51N), and what is the step for creating it?
I dont't know this area and every help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Gaetano

Hi,
As far as i know there's no forms designed in SAP System for P.R
So you have to create it by your own and the most difficult think will be to print it because there's no message possible for PR instead of P.O .
The last customer who request this for me , i develop a specific program to print form asynchronously .
Hope this help you and let me know iif you need more explanation

Problem during view Adobe Form in Web Request

Hi All,
I am facing problem while viewing the adobe form inside the Web Request form.
Let me describe the issue clearly.
I need to have a table in Adobe Form.So i created one table type and bind it to the table structure created, in Adobe Form.
Then i uploaded the form as web request successfully.
Now when i m trying to view the form from web ui, its unable to assign child node data at runtime.so dump is coming.
Can anyone show light on this....i have tried all the possibilities.
Unfortunately there is no standrad scenario available for reference.
Regards,

Hi Satish,
Thanks for your reply.But this is not my requirement.
If you will go to tcode CRM_UI and log in using business role CRMGRMPRGMAN, then go to Application and open one application.Here there is one assignment block called 'Application Form'. Here i have uploaded my Adobe Form as web request.
This is working fine when i have simple linear form.
But when i am using table inside the form and doing binding for it, Application is getting created with that form but while openning it here in the assignment block, dump is coming as below.Its not able to assign the child node.
The ABAP call stack was:
Method: NODE_ELEM_2_STRUCT of program CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES==========CP
Method: NODE_2_DDIC of program CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES==========CP
Method: DATASOURCE_2_FM_PARAMS of program CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES==========CP

Migration of JSP forms into adobe forms for PCRs

Hi All,
I am working on Upgrade project for ESS/MSS. Our client had JSP based PCRs which we need to migrate into adobe based PCRs.
i have few questions regarding this migration.
Has someone the experience to migrate a JSP based PCR into Adobe based PCR?
How much effort the migration will take, and can we fully reuse ISR configuration and workflow?
Thanks,
Ankur

If you are using the SAP delivered JSP forms - there maybe equivalent SAP delivered Adobe based PCRs in the next ESS/MSS releases that you can use instead of migrating the forms
I am not aware of any tools or documentation that help to migrate custom JSPs to custom Adobe forms
As I see it you would have to create new Adobe based versions of your JSP PCRs - I am vaguely aware of a guide entitled
"Developing Your Own Personnel Change Requests" for ERP2004 - however I am not sure how you would obtain a copy
or whether this approach is recommended, supported or complete - this documentation would detail how to create an ISR based Adobe form
At the same time there may be restrictions as to what standard JSP forms are available as standard Adobe forms and what can be configured in the ISR scenarios (for example use of Value Help in WD JAVA Adobe scenarios)
- SAP have been recommending instead of creating say a ISR based Adobe form for WD JAVA to
use HCM processes and forms (also available in the MSS role) going forward
- HCM processes and forms is WD ABAP based framework using Adobe which allows users to create custom Adobe forms which update back-end infotypes directly from the Portal - also such scenarios as Value Help etc may be possible (or more easily achieved)
Best wishes

Error message for Leave request (Related to some Old Question)

Hi Experts, 
 
We are facing an Error when only 1 employee in the company opens his Leave request page, the same page is working for others perfectly. 
 
this Error is the same as the one in the below posts: 
 
1. Link: Re: Error message for Leave request 
 
and I tried going through their solutions such as: 
 
1. Please check if you have the leave config done on ECC side under Personnel Management --> Employee Self services --> Service Specific settings --> Working time --> Leave request . 
2. At the least you should have assign the default rule to your PSG to the standard leave type given. Otherwise create your own rule groups and Specify Processing processes for type of leave set up. 
3. explicitly activate WEBMO Feature although it was activated 
 
But the Error is still coming for this specific Employee, even though his Vacation Quota is created and available for deduction. 
 
Please Help me in solving this issue. 
 
Regards, 
Abdulrahman

Adobe forms for report creation.

Hello. I would like to use an web form in which the user submits research information, which the user can then download (or be emailed) the data in an organized report. In a sense, I would like to use Adobe Forms to make these reports consistent. How can I use Adobe forms for this? Is this possible?

Hi Viji,
I believe there must be a misunderstanding here. While Adobe delivers sample forms both in Adobe LiveCycle Designer (only the form) and for their own server products (the LiveCycle series), this has nothing to do with Interactive Forms in SAP software. Adobe contributes 2 key technology components to the joint solution, but the business logic continues to be shipped by SAP only. This means that Adobe neither ships standard forms for an SAP system nor BAPIs.
In mySAP ERP 2004, a couple of pilot processes built with Guided Procedures were shipped to selected customers. These processes dealt with the creation and changing of master data. These processes are not generally available.
Interactive Forms is included in several environments, i.e. Web Dynpro for Java, Web Dynpro for ABAP, ABAP Workbench (for printing), Guided Procedures, Internet Service Request (ERP), and Business Intelligence. In NetWeaver '04, you can only use Web Dynpro for Java and ABAP Workbench.
There is NO OUT-OF-THE-BOX SUPPORT for BSPs.
If you wish to use KM functions, it'll be up to you to develop them for your process. You will need to persist the generated PDF form (it doesn't happen by default), and there is no standard delivery that includes KM functions.
Hope this helps,

Edit HTML FORM for Travel Request in BADI

Hi Experts,
I'm trying to use the BADI FITP_REQUEST_HTML_FORM_BADIDEF to edit the HTML form for travel request.
I need to add and hide fields in tables, but I don't need to create new tables in the form.
The example is like the following:
CALL METHOD co_dd_document->add_table
    EXPORTING
      no_of_columns = 2
      width         = '350'
      border        = '0'
    IMPORTING
      table         = lo_estc_table.
set estc columns
CALL METHOD lo_estc_table->add_column
    EXPORTING
      width = '150'
    IMPORTING
      column = lo_col1.
MOVE text-t04 TO lv_text.
CALL METHOD lo_col1->add_text
    EXPORTING
      text = lv_text.
We don't need to create new tables, we need to add fields in an existing table of the form.
Somebody knows how can I do that?
I hope you can help me.
Thanks in advance.
Oscar.

work around!

Adobe Forms for Material Pocurement

Hi Experts,
Pls provide some Samples of Adobe Forms for Material Pocurement Process.
Thank U.

You may not get the complete standard form which will match this functionality. But you can develop your business logic in custom code for fetching the data and the interface and use the standard templates for layouts if any template matches your requirement. You can see the complete lest of templates in : "transaction SFP->Form->Layout->Tools->Template Manager
Most of the common templates are available here.

Create Z service for leave request

Hi All,
with reference to "ESS in MSS"
Leave request :
"In a similar fashion you can create a Z service for leave request and attach the resource of Leave request which is standard one to it
EMPLOYEE_WORKTIME_LEAVEREQUEST05 to the Sub Area MSS_HCM_SUB_RELATEDACTIVITY_ESS. "
how do i create a z service for leave request?
Regards

I think you wish to use ESS Leave Request in MSS.......
Tcode SPRO...
Cross-Application Components -> Homepage Framework -> Services
Define Services
Copy existing and create your own....
EMPLOYEE_WORKTIME_LEAVEREQUEST
to
ZXXX_EMPLOYEE_WORKTIME_LEAVEREQUEST
EMPLOYEE_WORKTIME_LEAVEOVERVIEW
to
ZXXX_EMPLOYEE_WORKTIME_LEAVEOVERVIEW
Associate a Z resource or existing resource with it....
Then map this Z service with Sub area
"Assign Services to Subareas"
Do not forget to give "Position"
Revert back if you face any issue......

Use Adobe forms for Dunning letters

Dear All,
We have a requirement to use dunning letters using Adobe Forms. I would like to know,
1. Is there a way we can attach adobe forms for dunning letters.
2. what could be the estimate do develop these letters using adobe forms.
3. Could I get some guidelines on the approach.
Thanks.

Hi Jonathan,
You're right, PDF is easier to use in comparison to SapScript.
If the SapScript is in use at this time, you should have no worries with PDF, where you can even import the official format.

Interactive Adobe form for performance appraisal

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to create Interactive Adobe Form for Performance appraisal? I understand that the appraisal template varies company to company.Does it affect the Form? Can we update the infotype 0025 ( Appraisals where appraisee /Appraisals where appraiser tab) ? Please advice on this.

Hi,
We had the same question sometime back. This is what we found
1. Users will not finish Performance Apprisal document in one session, they will complete partially and then comback another day to complete it.
2. IT25 is not like normal infotype, it might be challenging to update it with BAPI/RFCs.
These two issues stopped us from doing Adobe interactive forms (PCR like) for Performance apprisal.
