Adobe Interactive forms - ABAP Webdynpro or JAVA Webdynpro?

Hi,
I am an ABAPER and I got few requirements for Adobe Interactive forms Offline Scenario/Online scenarios & ALV reports.
I have practiced a session ( How Tou2026execute an RFC model with inputs from Interactive Formswith RFC Module ) -JAVA webdynpro where it interacts with SAP via BAPI.
Now my question is I am bent more towards ABAP.. I want to do this in ABAP but unfortunately I haven't found any similar material for ABAP webdynrpo.Could anyone pls suggest me !
FYI.. We are also developing some ALV Webdynpro reports and I am using PURE ABAP which i like it.
So the other reason is we don't want install NWDI and complicate this structure as we don't have ESS/MSS requirment here. Just we need some forms/reports on portal.
Any suggestions and links which can help me here?

Hi Vara,
You can develop Interactive forms using WD ABAP also.
[E Learning- Interactive Forms using WD ABAP|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/media/uuid/c766e918-0b01-0010-99b1-c2b78cd059b3]
WD Java is useful in case, when your ABAP system is less than ECC 6.0. Otherwise you can achieve same functionalities in WD ABAP also.
Hope this will help you.

Adobe interactive form(ABAP WD)size is increasing & not opening from EP UWL

Hello All,
Adobe interactive form (ABAP WD) size is increasing after cleansing data from MDM and the form is not opening from portal UWL.
Same application is working fine in Dev and Qa environment. In dev and QA the form size is around 150 KB after cleansing data from MDM. Some reason in production it is more than 2 MB. FYI - We have multiple app servers in production.

Hi Babi,
In the adobe form layout library Use the Submit(which internally means submit to SAP) button from the Webdynpro Native category.
Only this button action can connect adobe to web dynpro.
Whenever we click on this particular button the event will be trigger in the ONsubmit event of interactive form UI element in the webdynpro.There we can write our abap code.Hope this will help you.

Hi Sean
In the Visual Admin of the server that runs the ADS check under server->services->destinations click on http folder. There should be something under that called FP_ICF_DATA_<sid of backend>. If there is not then create one in there.

Migrating PCR frontend-JSP forms to Adobe interactive forms-WD Abap Comp

Hi All,
We are currently on Netweaver 7.0 & ECC 6.0 and ESS - MSS Business Package 50.4. We are using JSP Forms on portal front for Personnel Change Requests (PCR's ) where in all the scenarios in the backend are heavily customized with good amount of usage of Javascripts. For certain scenarios, where in a huge amount of information is fetched from ECC 6.0 backend system, JSP are performing really bad and the total time taken to display the form is actually causing a lot of irritation to the end user.
We are planning to propose an upgrade to SAP adobe interactive forms. The prerequisite is that the business wants to reuse all the customized scenarios without any changes and just want to move towards better front end forms.
My questions are:
1. Please list benefits of SAP Adobe interactive forms - ABAP component over JSP forms (performance wise)
2. Issues with SAP Adobe Interactive forms?
3. Since Javascripts do not work in Webdynpro ABAP. How can we implement those front end checks and validations.
3. Any other options available for UI that can be suggested?
All suggestions are welcome. Quick response is appreciated.
Thanks a lot for your time and help.
Best Regards,
Anupama

Is your performance issue with the Javascript with JSP pages? or the Java script you are using within the Adobe form in your WDJ custom application using Adobe form? I have worked on PCR's using ISR framework old school it used to call as PCR and now HCM Processes and form, Developed PCR's using WDJ also integrated workflow with the WDJ PCR for approval(we never had any performance issue) infact ISR frame work was kind of slow compare to custom WDJ solution and less flexible for a developer to develop.
I have also worked created WDA custom application for PCR's , WDA is definitely better when you compare it with WDJ but I have not seen much performance issue with WDJ atleast on custom PCR solutions.
I don't have any case study to share with you, can you please tell what kind of PCR's your client is using and what kind of performance issue you are experiencing and where and why you guys are using Javascript.

SUBMIT(to SAP) Button in Adobe Interactive Forms (Web Dynpro Java)

Hi ,
I m using Adobe Interactive Forms with Web Dynpro Java
But submit to SAP button is not working
i m using NWDS 7.2 with adobe lifecycledesigner 6.0
with adobe reader 9.0
when i click submit to SAP button in interactive form nothing happens and
data is not transfered into web dynpro Context
Can anybody help me out................

Hi Adi,
The evniorment and versions you posted seems to be quite scattered, make sure all are of compatible and to the lates.
Anyways this was not the reason for your problem.
Can you tace if the button click event is triggered ....?
1) when the PDF is published can you see any of the fields editable...? reason behind is generally when you create a form in ADLC it comes up in static PDF format if its so you need to make it dynamic.
I dont know if adding the webdynpro script to your form might fix.

Sai

Iview from webDynpro ABAP with Adobe interactive form

Hi gurus.
Can I make an iview from a webDynpro ABAP that generates an Adobe Interactive Form, and generate this form from the portal as well?
thanks in advanced,
Dieuba

Chintan thanks for your reply.
Using Adobe Cycler Designer you can design an interactive Form (fields to be filled by the client, buttons, etc.) and you can integrate this with webDynpros ABAP and JAVA. I want to make an iview that connects with this webDynpro and also generates this form to be filled by the user, so it can send the data back to the sap system.

ABAP Webdynpro ADOBE interactive form

Hi All,
I have a problem when reading attachments from online adobe interactive form in Webdynpro ABAP.
I have tried two options:
Option1:
Get FP reference.
l_fp = cl_fp=>get_reference( ).
try.
Create PDF Object.
l_pdfobj = l_fp->create_pdf_object( connection = 'ADS' ).
Set document.
l_pdfobj->set_document( pdfdata = lv_pdf ).
Set task to get attachments.
l_pdfobj->set_task_getattachments( ).
Execute, call ADS.
l_pdfobj->execute( ).
Get result.
l_attachments = l_pdfobj->get_attachments( ).
CATCH cx_fp_runtime_system INTO exc.
xslt_message = exc->get_text( ).
ENDTRY.
option 2: in wdomodify method
DATA l_ifba TYPE REF TO cl_wd_interactive_form.
l_ifba ?= view->get_element( 'IF_001' ).
DATA l_form_method_handler TYPE REF TO IF_WD_IACTIVE_FORM_METHOD_HNDL.
l_form_method_handler ?= l_ifba->_method_handler.
DATA l_attachments TYPE tfpattachments.
l_attachments = l_form_method_handler->get_attachments( ).
Both options are not getting the attachments.
Our SAP Netweaver version is 7 and ehp 4, ADS configured.
If i save the pdf with attachments locally and then use the UI upload and read the attachments it works. But not when the interactive form is online and when i add attachments to it and click submit(where submit code is the option 1 code), it is not finding any attachments. I wonder whether pdfsource context stores the attachments or not.
When i check the note, SAP say that attachments are supported from ehp2.
What is that i am missing? Any direction would be good.
In worst case i will do webdynpro screens for attachments maintenance, wanted to check with all experts before taking this option.
Please someone answer.
Thanks
Anu

>When i check the note, SAP say that attachments are supported from ehp2.
That is correct. Attachments are supported as of NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 2.
>Our SAP Netweaver version is 7 and ehp 4, ADS configured.
Not possible. NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 4 doesn't even exist yet. In fact 7.0 Enhancement Package 2 won't start ramp-up until December 20th. I think you are confusing your ERP Enhancement Package level with your NetWeaver Enhancement Package level. I'm guessing that it is much more likely that you are on ERP 6.0 Enhancement Package 4. This level of ERP actually runs on NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 1.
