Adobe Interactive Forms --- how to use in GP --- ?!?

Hello,
I do have a problem and hope very much someone can help me out.
I created an Adobe Interactive Form and wrapped it with the appropriate CO in GP.
My Problem ist i can't use it then. it's neither in the "impersonalized Forms" list nor can i generate a working "Initiation-Url" in the CO. the created one does not lead to a page but to a IE-Error message.
would be great if someone can advice me.
Greetings,
Tobias Müller

Hello,
In GP the Interactive forms can be used in offline mode only. For online mode, you got to embed it in a JAVA WD GPI interface and then create a CO out of it. Let me know which option did you choose while creating the CO for the Adobe form?
Did you choose offline/other?
Cheers,
Mandrake!

PM Notification Adobe Interactive Form - How to Start?

Hi experts!
I´m kind of new to the Adobe interactive form creating process.
We have a requirement of turning the SAP Plant Maintenance notifications into a more friendly, adobe interactive form.
My question is, how do I start to develop this?
It is basically placing the PM Notification in an adobe form, so the users will open these notifications using adobe forms.
The same fields are being used and they have everything on SAP Netweaver Portal.
Any advice on how to begin? Maybe some links to documentation would be great...
Thanks so much and best regards,
Fernando

Hi,
I would like to suggest to take steps like this:
1. Start with the Printing-Report (not the interface of the adobe form)... usually you can make a copy of the includes(get_data) of standard printing report...
2. Try to customize(spro) the new form with new the printing programm..
3. Does the call work to you see the adobe form ... an so on...
4. Now you r on half way ... decide to use standard include for getting data.. or use some bapi in the interface of your form to get all data that you need.
thats it ... (for a not interactive form)

Adobe Interactive Form - How to disable Adobe toolbar in my View

Hello Expert,
we are starting to use the Adobe Interactive Form in our webDynpro (java) project.
We would like to offer to our users an interactive form and to save the data inserted by the users in a database.
So we add a "Submit Button" in our form, the button il linked to the method "onActionSubmit()" in the view implementation.
But we want to force the users to press it before to save/stamp the pdf form.
Is possible to disable the Adobe toolbar, that offers command like "stamp" or "save as", until the users press the "Submit Button"?
Thanks in Advance
Best Regards

SAP delivered Adobe Interactive Forms: how to identify in ERP6.0, CRM....

I am not an ABAPer, but I am trying to determine whether we need to develop an Adobe Interactice Form or leverage one delivered by SAP for following actions:
   o Return to work
   o Short term disability
   o Hire
I read the most important notes and FAQ and I didn't find a way to list all SAP delivered Adobe interactive forms.
I know from a colleague that SAP provides a Hiring SAP Adobe form (ISR_HRASR_SHI1) but I couldn't find it in SFP transactopm code nor in table TERPFORMLIST. This table I believe is mentioned In EhP4 release notes, however it doesn't provide a description of what a form is about.
Can you please provide the process or program or procedure to dump such a list of SAP delivered forms from ERP6.0, CRM, SRM, etc, where the list contains the Name of Adobe Interactive form, description of form, SW component, application compenent, and if possible any corresponding SMARTFORM...
Any help is much appreciated.
Regards,
Tobi

Hi Tobi,
I have send a SAP document to your email , which contains all the standard SAP Print and Interactive forms which are delivered with ERP6.0

Web Dynpro & Adobe Interactive Forms - how to update the context node

Hi Experts,
I got a WD Component with some context nodes that are mapped to some views and are filled in this views. These context nodes are the dataSource for the Interactive Forms. These forms are embedded in a view by UIElement Interactive Forms.
My problem is, everytime when I change the structure of the context nodes (i.e. there's an additional attribute necessary), I have to design new forms to get the context nodes linked to the form. My existing forms cannot handle updated context nodes.
The change in the context node is displayed on web dynpro side, in the dataSource view in UIElement property. But in TA sfp there is the old context node structure displayed without any change (i.e. in number of attributes).
My forms' layout type is ZCI Layout the interface is based on XML.
How can I easily update the forms' context node structure without creating new forms every time?
Thanks in advance,
Tan

ok, got it.
by double clicking on templateSource in UIElement properties the interface can be updated.
Regards from Murphy's Law.

How to use Adobe Interactive forms with ISR frame work in Webdynpro forJava

Hi,
Anybody worked on Adobe Interactive forms with ISR frame work in Webdynpro for Java in ESS/MSS development.
We have already searched in ISR_Cookbook_2004, however we didn't anything related webdynpro for java in that.
Any information regarding this will be of great help.
Regards
Satish Kumar

There are a number of issues here. A form that you created with LiveCycle Designer (XFA) cannot be used with FormsCentral. An Acroform, the kind you can create with Acrobat, can be used with FormsCentral, with certain limitations, one of which is skip logic. A dynamic XFA form allows for this type of thing, but as mentioned, they don't work with FormsCentral. You can set up an Acroform to show/hide or activate/inactivate fields based on selections or entries made in other fields, but you'd have to set this up in Acrobat, not FormsCentral. So you can set up something roughly equivalent to a web form's skip logic, but you'd have to learn how to do this in Acrobat using JavaScript. There is a separate Acrobat JavaScript forum here if you have any questions.

How to capture full file path on Adobe Interactive Form using Acro JS

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I have a field ZPATH1 on Adobe Interactive Form. I am putting a BROWSE button and writing following JavaScript on CLICK event on this button for populating the chosen file path into field ZPATH1.
*Start of JavaScript
var sFile;
event.target.importDataObject(sFile);
var oFile;
oFile = event.target.getDataObject(sFile);
this.parent.parent.Sub_Form_Fields_Mass.ZPATH1.rawValue = oFile.path;
*End of JavaScript
1. event.target.importDataObject(sFile) --> Giving me the pop up to select the file.
2. this.parent.parent.Sub_Form_Fields_Mass.ZPATH1.rawValue = oFile.path; --> Putting the oFile path in field ZPATH1 on the form.
3. This way is only giving me the selected FILE NAME whereas I need the complete path.
I have tried below way also:
this.parent.parent.Sub_Form_Fields_Mass.ZPATH1.rawValue = even.target.path;
This function returns me the complete path but in URL form. It does not give me the presentation server path.
Please suggest me how to get the complete path of presentation server to the file.
Appreciation would be honored in form of points!!!

Ashish

How to binnding the data in the adobe interactive forms for making a table?

Hi, experts,
Function:
Through the sharing context node between adobe interactive form and a WDA for ABAP, display the data of the sflight_node in the ADOBE.
version:
Acrobat Reader 8.1.0
currently both of the SAP-ABA and SAP-BASIS SP level: 9
ADS : Successful.
The following is my action:
1.     Create a interface (Z_SFLIGHT_INTF) with a attribute node (SFLIGHT_NODE) that type is "sflight" using the transaction code "sfp"
2.     Create a form (Z_SFLIGHT_FORM) using the transaction code "sfp" with the interface Z_SFLIGHT_INTF.
3.     Trag the sflight_node in the Z_SFLIGHT_INTF to the form( Z_SFLIGHT_FORM).
4.     Open the layout tab in the form(Z_SFLIGHT_FORM), and create a table(table1). Click the table created just now, select the binding tab in the object tab, and in the Default Binding, select the SFLIGHT_NODE under the Z_SFLIGHT_FORM.
Problem 1:
Do you tell me whether is right for binding the context SFLIGHT_NODE using this way? If bind 3 context attributes in the sflight, how can I do it?
5.     Create a WDA for abap (ZZ_02_SFLIGHT), and create a view(MAINVIEW) using transaction code "se80" in the sap-gui with adobe interactive form. Set the templatesource(Z_SFLIGHT_FORM) in the adobe interactive form properties and saved, and then, datasource is "MAINVIEW_Z_SFLIGHT_FORM" automatically.
6.     But I only found the attribute SFLIGHT_NODE under the context node(Z_SFLIGHT_NODE), and I don't found the NODE ( SFLIGHT_NODE ) context in the context tab in the WDA for abap so that I don't set data to the context NODE (SFLIGHT_NODE).
Problem 2:
Do you tell me what can I do it so that I get the node SFLIGHT_NODE rather than attribute in the WDA for setting the data to the CONTEXT NODE (SFLIGHT_NODE)?
Thanks a lot.

Tao

How to store adobe Interactive form PDF in archive link?
