Adobe Form - Reference Object

Hi All
Could someone please explain to me what the "Reference object" in Adobe For used for - Thanks

Hi Liem,
It is well explained with examples in the life cycle designer help. Go to help(By pressing F1 or from menu) and search with keyword "reference object" in designer help. You will find solution to your query. The designer help is much suitable for this query.

  • Guided Procedures Adobe form callable object GRANT POINTS!!!!

    Hi,
    I am trying to add Adobe form to the GP. I created a simple form template .XDP which contains only two element to test in GP
    I created CO  no problem based on XDP.
    When I am trying to preview my GP I see the following functional error :
    No activity is currently selected
    or if the CO is attached to the first block for execution this one:
    The next activity is not yet available: try again later using the "Refresh" button
    Any Ideas ? 
    Any other COs including WD app COs and other types of callable objects in the same GP work just fine
    Thanks

    Hi Satya,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I got my mistake with the help of my colleague.
    I had missed to add the below code in wdDoModifyView. It now works well :
    Code I added is this -
    IWDInteractiveForm iForm1 = (IWDInteractiveForm) view.getElement("InteractiveForm");
    iForm1.setDynamicPDF(true);
    Thanks,
    Best Regards,

  • 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.

  • Problem with Web Dynpro ABAP Adobe form Access via 'NULL' object reference

    Hi All!
    I'm a beginner of Adobe form.
    problem 1:
    I tried to display data in Adobe interactive form according to the tutorial :https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/7783. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
    I checked every step, but unfortunately it reported an error: Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible. I found that the error happens when trying to get element of the context node.
    I also have such problem when I was studying the tutorial https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/CallAdobeFormthroughABAPWebDynpro.
    problem 2:
    I can't input any data in input box or click any button even  if I selected the property 'enabled' of the interactive form while my colleague can do it on his computer.  Does it means that there are some thing wrong with my adobe reader?
    Hope anyone could save me,
    Thanks & Regards,

    Check that you have entries in the Table MARI. else you will get this message.

  • How to attach a WebDynpro Adobe form to backend Business Object?

    Hello,
    I would like to know if anyone has created an Interactive Adobe Form, and then after the user has filled it out (online, via WebDynpro view), attach the pdf form to an SAP Document, for example, Order, Purchase Order or Contract?
    I know how to create the WebDynpro Interactive Form, and I then have the pdf object in context attribute of WebDynpro.  But am not sure how to do the next step of taking that pdf and attaching it to the SAP Document.
    Any suggestions or code samples would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Colleen

    The interactiveForm UI element has one action called onSubmit.  This action is triggered when any server event occurs within the Adobe Form itself.  So if you place a submitButton from the Web Dynpro Native (assuming you are using ZCI forms) within the form, it will automatically trigger the onSubmit action and WD event handler.
    Here is a video that shows the process -  although it is a little bit older and uses ACFx forms.  You would want to use the new ZCI form approach. The general process for linking the events is the same however.

  • Cannot display Adobe form as Callable object in GP

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to display an adobe form as an Interactive Form Callable object.
    I've created a process -> block -> action -> callable object. But the form doesnt display. When I launch the GP runtime and initiate the process, I get the message "The next activity is not yet available: try again later using the "Refresh" button " nothing happens when I hit the refresh button.
    Can someone advise me what I might be doing wrong? I've also tried things like consolidating parameters with other callable objects just to see if anything display, but no luck so far.
    Thanks

    Hi Som,
    I'm using NW04s, EP 7.0 SPS 10
    OS is Unix(server) Windows 2000 Pro (client)
    Browser version is IE 6.0.
    I just realised the system is sending out an email to the initiator, and the initiator is able to open the Adobe form. But who does the initiator send the email back to? I'm quite a newbie to this stuff so please bear with me. Also another question is, if the form is offline, then how do we know which workflow (GP) it will tie to once the form is submitted back to the system? In other words, does the person who receives the email with a filled adobe form have to manually initiate the workflow or is there a mechanism to automate this?
    Thanks in advance

  • Problems activating an adobe forms object / lifecycle designer

    Hi everybody,
    our developers are getting more and more problems when they try to activate an adobe forms object in SAP.
    When they click on the activate icon, SAP freezes – and after 3-4 minutes of waiting, SAP displays, that e.g. 105.570 bytes were transferred, but the document remains inactive.
    So by now they need about 5 attempts before it finally gets activated…this is very time consuming and frustrating.
    Does anybody know a solution to this problem?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance

  • DB2 Connectivity Trough ADO Objects in Adobe Form Designer

    Hi,
    We are using
    Adobe Workflow Server 6.2 and
    Adobe Form Designer 5 to develop forms. In forms we have to display some information retrieved from IBM's DB2 database at two different stages. First at the beginning of the process, for which we have scripts in the process which are working fine. Second at run time, i.e., the user will enter ID of an employee and we have to retrieve the corresponding information of that employee. For that we are using ADO objects, provided in the form designer.
    The problem that we are facing is that these forms uses ActiveX controls and they are executed on the client's PC. At run time when we try to access the DB2 database we get an ODBC error:
    [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified, because the DSN is on the server not on the client's PC. The forms are working fine on those PC that have DB2 client installed on them.
    We want that ADO object to be executed on the server not on the client's PC. Is there any way or doing so? Or is there any other solution?
    Please let me know asap as I have been facing this problem for many days.
    Thanks.
    --Khan.

    Khan--
    Your best bet in my opinion would be to drop the use of the Adobe ADO Object and switch to one of the following db connectivity scenarios.
    - MS Remote \ RDS; has some MS security draw backs but allows remote access to a db from a single DSN.
    "+" : Much faster to deliver
    "-" : Have to work around MS server \ browser security issues
    - Custom solution using xml DOM \ SOAP calls to pass your data requirements to an ASP \ ASP.NET component. This component would be used to execute the sql statement read from xml package then return that result back to the form.
    "+" : Increase in performance due to server side execution, very little MS Security implications
    "-" : Not a quick solution to build as it involves many different components to function
    Hope this helps somewhat...

  • Adobe Form Translation error Omitted Objects (Could not be Converted)

    Hi,
    I am new to this forum. I have an issue with Adobe form Translation. Through SE63 (or through the form translation itself) , whenever I try to translate into any language it gives me an error "  Omitted Objects (Could not be Converted)". And the translation doesnt get saved. I tested with other forms and the translation works perfectly fine. Its the problem only with this particular form. In fact any change gives error. For e.g. I copy the English the translation to the Greek or the Hungarian one, and if I delete a character and save it it gives me an error.
    Please help me if you have faced similar issues have any knowledge about it.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi David,
    Thanks for answering my query. I had installed a new patch and even that did not work. However I managed to make it work. I dont know if its the correct way but it worked for me. On furthur analyses I found out that the problem was with XML tags. This was throwing an error. Also, on looking at the translations I Observed that there were few close tags "</trans-unit> " which had no open "<trans-unit>" for them. I simply deleted the extra close tags and the translation worked fine after that.
    Point to be noted is that the extra tags were not there in the original english translation. They only appeared when I tried to change the Greek or Hungarian translation and saved them.
    Hope it helps anybody.
    Thanks.

  • Adobe Forms - Translation error (Omitted Objects (Could not be Converted):)

    Hi Experts,

  • Integrating Dynamic Adobe Form with BSP: SAP Objectives setting &Appraisal

    Hi all,
    My users ask me whether wecan use Adobe Form to replace SAP standard BSP appraisal form (generated by HAP_DOCUMENT).
    I konw that it's possible to integrate Adobe Interactive form with BSP.
    But my Adobe form must contain dynamic table, with ability to insert/delete row on the form. This is just like what's there when you can adding objectives by client scripting in SAP OSA.
    Please tell me if the integration of dynamic Adobe form with BSP is possible?
    (We are on ECC 6, EPH2).
    Thank you so much.

  • 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
