Adobe Interactive Forms using Web AS ABAP Only

Hi,
After setting up ADS, we want to publish an adobe interactive form to a website. We want this form to be truly interactive, meaning users can enter data through it with validations. My question is, is it possible to develop this form using ABAP only and deploy it in WEB AS ABAP? Or do we really need to use NWDS and WEB AS JAVA for this?
I saw somewhere that ABAP can only provide printforms (static?) while JAVA (in NWDS) can generate interactive forms.
Please help.
Thanks and Regards,
Tyken

Hi,
For this you must define the form's interface based on XML and not DDIC ...

Search Help on Adobe Interactive Form with Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi All,
I have created Adobe Interactive Form with ZCI type and XML based interface type using Webdynpro ABAP.
I placed a text field USER_NAME on the form ( data element is linked to search help USER_COMP ).
Added Native WD UI element 'Value Help' to form to search for users and changed script
*var fieldName = "INSERT_NAME_HERE*"; to var fieldName = "USER_NAME";
The problem is that when I click on the value help button, nothing happens.
Is any more additional steps required ?
Thanks

Hi,
it is so simple..
1) Create AdobeInteractiveForm UI element in your screen.
2) Create pdf_source for pdf source attribute to bind it should be byte data.
3) Create node for data Source. (The data which you want to place on the pdf form)
4) right click on interactive form UI element & edit
5) PDF editor will be open.
6) drag the required data fields from data source to the form.
7) place submit button on the form.
Finally there are two kinds of interactive modes
1) native mode (it runs on firefox browser)
2) active X mode (it runs on Internet Explorer 6)
Please use appropriate submit button on the form (i.e. native/ActiveX submit button)
Best Regards

F4 Value Help on Adobe Interactive Form with Web Dynpro ABAP

Hello,
I have created an Interactive Form with ZCI type.
I placed a text field MATNR on the form.
Then I placed a Native WD UI element 'Value Help' as mentioned in the below link: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/42/fb2fe500553ee4e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm
This form was then embeded into Web Dynpro ABAP view.
The problem is that when I click on the F4 button, nothing happens.
Is anything else needs to be done?
Thanks
Sagar

Hi Amol,
After binding the Context variable in the view, and in the Adobe Layout Designer from the Library go to WebDynpro Native Tab and drag and drop the Value Help and for this automatically JavaScript is being generated, go that script and edit the line
Var fieldname = "yourfieldname";
Note: Don't forget to link the context attribute to search help. ie. in the context properties of the attributes select the input help mode as dictionary search help and specify the name of the search help present in data dictionary.
And now go to Utilities and click on u201CInsert Web Dynpro Scriptu201D.
Also make sure that you specify the Layout as ZCI Layout in the Propertioes of the Adobe Form.
Ragards,
Amol Patil.

Adobe Interactive Forms without Web Dynpro and ACF???

Hi All, we would like to build an interactive forms solution based on the Adobe software integrated into WAS. However, the customer requires a true thin client application with no additional installation on the client. Integrating Adobe Interactive Forms into Web DynPro however requires the Active Component Framework (ACF) to be installed since these forms are integrated into the page within an ActiveX container.
So the question is whether there is a way to use Adobe Interactive forms including the Adobe Documents Service within WAS but without(!) using Web Dynpro?(the full blown Adobe LifCycle Forms solution is not an option). Any suggestions on this are highly appreciated!
Tanks!

Hello everyone,
I would like to add a couple of points from the SAP Product Management perspective.
Adobe has a number of stand-alone products that are the foundation for what SAP can now offer thanks to our partnership. This is exactly why we decided on a partnership that provides us with established technology, which is now integrated.
It is true that Web Dynpro is the main SAP way of integrating the interactive functions of the solution. We made this decision consciously, because the development and run-time environments provide very useful features that reduce the need for manual coding, such as the possibility of passing the data back to the backend using the Web Dynpro context. The automatism we offer here needs to be implemented from scratch with any other solution, including the Adobe stand-alone one.
While it is true that the ACF constitutes a certain limitation for the reasons you mention, Adobe will remedy this in 2005. The Reader/Web Dynpro integration will be available later this year for multiple platforms (OS, browsers) and will not require ACF anymore.
If you do not want to use a full-blown Web Dynpro application for your concrete scenario, consider developing an application that provides nothing but the interactive PDF form to the end user, to be filled in using the stand-alone Reader. The submit of the form data (with or without the PDF itself) could then happen via HTTP or e-mail.
Kind regards,
Markus Meisl

Hi frds,

No problem with the first view.. displays everything...
The Problem is when i click the button to nsvigate to the 2nd view, its not loading...
Wait symbol is coming...
Please Help me friends...

hi ,
pls use the ZCi layout for the adobe interactive form .
Need to Insert the web dynpro script to the form.
Note: Make sure to upgrade the Adobe Interactive for ZCI type using SFP_ZCI_UPDATE transaction
Subsequently, check whether the update of the ZCI was successfully completed. To do this, open your form in the Adobe LiveCycleDesigner and check the version information of the ZCI script. The ZCI script is available on the "Hierarchy" tab page under the "ContainerFoundation_JS" name. The version must be800.20080513120641.469612.469346.

Do you have to buy License to use Adobe Interactive Forms in WebAS

Hello,
Im testing at the moment the NetWeaver Java Trial with Web Dynpro (Java) and Adobe Interactive Forms.
You have to download Credentials and install it to use interactive forms in the Trial version. These are valid for 2 month.
I would like to know if you have to buy and install the Licenses to use (in the full amount, with digital Signatures etc.) the Adobe interactive Forms in the Fullversion of NetWeaver ?!
A Link to a document of SAP or Adobe to this topic would be really helpful.

Hello,
You will find the Adobe Forms Licensing information at links below:
1) Licensing Adobe Document Services
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/9f/36b2ca6a2642c2b8412677eb1fe9c0/frameset.htm
2) Also, have a look at SAP Note 750784 (SAP Interactive Forms: Licenses)
Hope this helps,

Adobe Interactive Form is displayed in Read Only mode

Hi All,
I created Adobe Interactive Form in SFP.
The following properties are set to the form.
Layout Type -ZCI Layout
Preview Type - Interactive Form
XDP Preview Format - Acrobat 7.0.5 Dynamic PDF
In PDF preview tab, I can enter data into the Text Fields.
I added this form in a web dynpro ABAP application using Interactive Form UI element.
The following properties are set to the UI element.
DataSource - bound to the context
displayType - native
enabled - checked
templateSource - Formname
readonly - unchecked.
When I run this application, the form is displayed in readonly mode.
I can't enter any data into the text field.
Any of you guys know that how to resolve this?
Thanks
Thruna

Hi,
I already face the same issue and after several days working on this issue and many hours on debugging it seems that interface type is very important if you want to use the form in WD4A (this requirement is confirmed by SAP thru an OSS message for me )
Does the interface based on DDIC or XML ?
If it's a DDIC interface , sorry that can't works in WD4A as interactive forms. You must define the interface as based on XML for this .
Hope this help you.
PS : Finally ,as my forms was very complicated my customer decide to not make it available in WD4A .....

Interactive Form within Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi,
I've an Adobe interactive form element within Web Dynpro ABAP view. I've more than one WebDynproActiveX buttons within the Interactive form (like Submit, Cancel, Clear).
How can I differentiate the user selection within Webdynpro ? Whether the user selected Submit or Cancel or Clear ? Can we associate any function code for each button ?
Thanks
Ravikumar

Hi Ravi,
You can take a context attribute lets say "STATUS"(string) in your form context. For your buttons in the form, in click event set the value. like
STATUS.rawValue = "1"; (eg Submit)
STATUS.rawValue = "2"; (eg Cancel)
And in your submit event read this context attribute and you can use CASE like when 1 , when 2 etc and you can execute your code accordingly.
it should solve your problem.
With Regards,
Ravi.D

Adobe Interactive Form and Web Dynpro

Hi experts,
I'm working with an standard Adobe Interactive Form (ISR_MSSRCF_SRQ3) which has a button (selectPosition) that is used to call a Web Dynpro (HRRCF_C_POSITION). This Web Dynpro is used to fill some forms fields (org. unit and position) as a search help. I don't know the way the Web Dynpro fills these fields, I don't find a context binding or so. Could you help to find the way these fields are linked to the Wed Dynpro? How does the Wed Dynpro fill these fields?
For this button, events in script command window are:
=>Mouse down.
//Set ISR_EVENT for BAdI processing in backend
$record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_EVENT = "USER_EVENT_POPUP"
$record.HRASR_FORM_WINDOW.DATA[*].FIELD.value = "HRRCF_C_POSITION"
=>Click.
//Trigger call to backend for BAdI user command processing
ContainerFoundation_JS.SendMessageToContainer(event.target, "submit", "", "", "", "");
=>Ready.
//Toggle visibility to be visible during edit operations, ínvisible otherwise
if($record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_MODE == "DISPLAY" |
     $record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_FORM_VIEW =="ISR_APPROVE" )
then
     this.presence = "invisible"
else
     this.presence = "visible"
endif
Any idea???
Thanks in advance.

Hi
In se80 - select the WD application HRRCF_C_POSITION.
COMPONENTCONTROLLER -> method CALL_POPUP . Put a degug point and analyze.
Kind Regards
