Adobe form issue in quality

Hi,
I have made few changes in HCM forms and processes mainly in the Adobe form script and in fieldname display (say changed from Emp Name to Employee Name in the form) but when I move the changes to quality to test it in portal, no changes are reflected.
The changes are available in quality system. I am able to view the script and form changes in HRASR_DT forms in quality (backend SFP/ through HRASR_DT). But when I open the form in portal using Start Process it does not show the new changes whereas it is still showing some old form.
I am not sure whether this is due to any buffer issue or not. When I import a new Transport Request to quality, it throws an ADS error when I try to open the form through "Start Process" in portal and the next time it opens form without new changes.
Please help me !!!
Thanks,
Arunsri B.S

Hi Christopher... Thank you so much for your reply. First of all thanks for all the blogs you have posted on HCM Processes and Forms...that's saving me till today and learnt a lot from your posts.
1. Yes I too felt that it should have been caching issue and I have raised it to the basis team, but yet to get a reply.
2. First thing is, I changed the script. I kept few pop up messages to test the script and then I removed it and transported again to quality, But still the pop up message were there even though there is no script. I checked in the xml source too and there is no script for pop up message.
Then to make sure, whether this is any script issue or not, I changed field label and even that did not reflect in quality.
Yes, I know this is pretty funny, we don't have test data in development, so we always do the changes in DEV and move to QA for testing.

Adobe form: Issue with BACK, CANCEL and EXIT buttons

I am new to Adobe forms. I created a simple demo Adobe form and was able to print it successfully except a strange problem.
Whenever I opt for print preview it shows me a blank page. On pressing enter it shows me the form, But now none of the BACK, EXIT, CANCEL buttons work. On pressing any of them I keep getting the print form.
So the only way I can come out of it is /n.
Can anyone please help with the reason for such an issue and how to get rid of it.
Regards,
Ashutosh

Maybe you can tell us something more about the code you use to print your form. I think thatis the problem. Otto

Adobe forms issue with signature pads

Hi everyone,
I am new to and just joined this forum as I never had to until this point. I am having some strange issue with adobe forms and using signature pad.
I have a form built using adobe X. I am using Topaz signature pad to have a digital signature in my form. My application (which was built on Progress 4GL) opens up this form using rich text editor. Most of my clients remote login to use the application. Every now and then my clients complain that whenever they click on the signature field on the form to open up the signature pad window, it kicks them out of the whole application. This happens so randomly that they can't predict when it occurs. I logged each and every lines on my code to see if there's any issue with the codes but they all execute fine. And I can't log after the form is open as adobe takes the control and they handle the communication with signaute pad. So far I have checked if there's any memory leakage that would kick me out and it's fine. And I think there's no driver issue as this happens randomly. A client who gets kicked out 1st time if tries the 2nd or 3 rd time following the same steps and same form, can successfully gets the job done.
Have any of you had faced similar issue. If you have any solutions or ideas that would be a great help to me.
Thanks!!
Him

Updates: Just found out that this issue rises only to the clients using Wyse terminals. Has anyone had any issue using Adobe forms and Wyse terminals?

Offline Adobe Form Issue

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to add few fields in my offline adobe form (ZCI Layout) which is getting called from webdynpro abap (via UI element "FileDownload").
The new fields has been added in the context node of WebDynpro and the population logic is all written in the appropriate method. Now the same needs to be added in the Adobe form as well.
So can you please help me with how to update the XML interface for the Adobe form.
I have already refreshed DataView but its not working.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Please specify when the error occurs. According to my experience, the problem can be that the transformation (XML data --> ABAP variable) has found some unexpected character. If my guess is right you need to debug this trasnformation and remove the unwanted character before the transformation starts.

Adobe form issues

I am trying to input information in an adobe form that is supposed to be enabled but even though it shows a purple bar for each input section it will not allow me to type anything. The only additional option Adobe gives me is to open it in Adobe Vista. When I do this it allows some input but it is all over the place. If the form is in a different version of Adobe than I have installed do I need to install the older version in order to get it to work? Any info is appreciated.

What is "Adobe Vista"?

Chitta Ranjan Mahato

Hi,
Looks like this question conveys it as a interview one, this is purely requirement I got to do this activity.
We have all other components include Hyperion Planning, HFR, FDQM, Essbase, EPMA. I can perform migrations of these components , only stuck with DRM as I am not sure how to achieve that. I have gone through DRM Installation guide and few posts in forum, it is suggested to use Migration utility.
Can you please share any other approach how to do this?
1) Metadata export
2) Mapping to EPMA dimension tables
3) Security
I hope, I am clear with my requirement this time.
Best Regard, UB

Adobe form -- Issue in Displaying Dynamic text along with Static text

Hi All,
I am having an issue when i am displaying a dynamic text along with static text in adobeforms.
The dynamic text is slightly coming down and not aligned with the static text. i can see half row it is coming down.
how to align both texts to be printed in same format.
Request all of your expert advices in achieving this .
Thank you in advance.
Thanks&Regards,
Phani Miriyaila.

Hi,
Select both dynamic and static text in the layout. Goto Object palette -> Layout. Give values to X,Y coordinates and Height & Width. Anchor properly and specify margins as well.
Select both dynamic and static text in the layout. Right click on it and goto palettes -> Paragraph. It gives you the text alignment options. Align the text and give similar font and size.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Sandesh.
Put your table in subform. (one for each)
And than add one more subform and include all 3 table's subforms in single subforms.
All subforms should be flowed.

Performance issue with Adobe forms

Dear SAP Experts,
We have the following issue/requirement from our client. The client is on SAP ECC 6.0 - production environment.
The client is highlighting performance issue while accessing the adobe forms for HR and FI business process ( both static and interactive ).
                Examples are
    FI – Invoice Approvals
                HR – Job Salary Change
The client is asking us to provide best practices surrounding:
1.       How to improve the performance of the adobe forms while accessing in SAP.
2.       Is there any other technology which we can use in SAP to replace the adobe forms which has better performance factor.
3.       Are there solutions such as webdynpro floor plan manager, UI Fiori which can be alternately used?
Regards,
Sakthi

Hello Priya,
     Adobe forms are easy to develop and much more comfortable than SAP Scripts and Smartforms. Initially they are a bit difficult but once you have your hands on, they are the most simplest things in ABAP.
Performance in Adobe forms is a mix of both fine tuning the Layout as well as back end coding.
Performance in Adobe forms cannot be done overnight. A lot of care has to be taken during the initial stage of development.
As far as my experience is concerned, please consider the below points while developing SAP Adobe forms.
1) Avoid Scripting (Javascript/Formcalc) as much as possible inside the form. It drastically reduces the performance and makes the form to execute slower. If you still want to use scripting(which cannot be avoided for some requirements), use Formcalc since it is comparatively faster than JavaScript.
2) Try to avoid the coding inside the Form Interface. You can always handle the maximum coding in the Driver program and pass it to the form.
3) Use Form Caching.
For forms that have fixed layout, its a good way to increase the performance of form rendering. In the layout, go to Form Properties. Then Click on Defaults tab and select Allow Form Rendering To Be Cached On Server. Then Click OK.
For forms that have flowable or dynamic layout, render the forms on the client side because it improves performance.
Last but not the least, please go through the below post by Otto Gold which is worth a read at least once.

What can be the issue, is there any problem with ADS configuration.
Its urgent. Please provide some inputs.
Thanks and Regards

In st22, it shows exception as

Issue While printing / Previewing a Adobe form in Web Dynpro ABAP application

Dear All,
We have designed 4 different adobe forms using SFP transaction for 4 different countries in SAP system.
Every country have different terms and conditions and therefore we have placed static texts (Hardcoded text) with text in different styles. Some text is in bold, some in different font (Bold, Italic). Font and Paragraph settings of the text was done as per expected. All the forms have same font and paragraph settings.
When we Launch Web Dynpro ABAP application to open the form in Print preview or to take print, form is not getting displayed / printed as it is designed in SFP. But if you open the form in SFP, everything looks fine.
It is working fine for 3 different forms but problem with only 1 form.
Kindly guide what is the reason for this strange issue when previewed or taken print. It is very urgent.
Thanks,
Bharath.K

Dear All,
Thanks for your responses.
We had identified the reason.
Customer has provided terms and conditions for all 4 countries in PDF document. Along with PDF, for 3 out of 4 countries customer has shared pre-prepared word document with pre aligned and justified terms and conditions as per expected outcome. We copied this text from word to Adobe form layout. It worked fine. For 1 country, customer have not shared terms and conditions in word document. Therefore we had copied text directly from adobe PDF document in to Form layout. Then this issue happened.
Solution for this issue is to, prepared a word document with expected alignment and justification of terms and conditions text . Then copied from word to adobe livecycle designer form layout. It worked fine.
Thanks,
Bharath.
