Adobe PDF forms - Nested table where conditions

Hi all,
Kindly help me out...
In the context I have a outertable and an innertable
I had defined the where conditions so that my output should look like below
item 1 (outer table values)
(no entries to match item1) so it is blank
item 2 (outertable values)
item2name qty weight (inner table valeus)
but the actual output is printed like below:
item 1 (outer table values)
item2name qty weight (inner table valeus)
item 2 (outertable values)
The problem is, I have only one entry in inner table for item2. There is no entries for item1.
The where condition is not satisfied in runtime and it is giving wrong output...
Please guide me where I had made the mistake...
Thanks in advance,
Jaffer Ali.S

Hi Prakash,
Thanks for your reply.
I tried it..... but nothing came out...
Is there any alternative for this...
My Hirearchy is like this...
Main Table (SubformA - MainSubform) set as flowed, repeat for each data item
Maintable-field1 Maintable-field2 (Subform) set as positioned
Inner table (table subform) set as flowed
Innertable-field1 Innertable-field2 (subform) set as positioned
I linked the Maintable and the Innertable in the context in the 'Where Conditions' tab
Kindly review the above hirearchy and reply...

Faxing adobe pdf forms using actions in CRM service process

Hi experts,
Does anybody has experience in sending adobe PDF forms as a fax using actions in CRM service processes? Currently I use this by implementing a PPF BAdI, but what else configuration, software and hardware requirements I need to make faxing work in CRM?
Is it possible to use 3rd party software to send the fax for example winfax and transfer the fax number to this?
Regards:
Gabor

Dear Dezso,
As far as I remember, we already know each other
Our company have been using winfax in the past for sending fax messages. Now that they will use SAP-CRM shall they buy a new fax server? I have looked after Topcall, it might be useful with RFC?
In CRM service order, I use the EXEC_METHODCALL_PPF BAdI implementation to collect the data from the service order, and then use the standard function modules to "print" or "fax" the PDF document (call function FM_NAME).
At this function module, which structure do I neet to enter the recipient's fax number (I read somewhere that I have to use DEVICE='TELEFAX' in the output_options - is it true?) ?
Or should I communicate from the BAdI with Business Communication Services (create recipient and similar methods)?
Is there any way to send the fax from the local machine where the user uses the SAP GUI?
Thank you very much in advance for your help and support!
Gabor

Re: Interactive Adobe PDF forms

Hi,
In interactive Adobe PDF forms only two events are give such as OnCheck and OnSubmit. Is it possible to use other events appart from check and submit.If so how to use it and where to code it.
Is Interactive pdf forms are ment for these two purposes only.
Thanks and regards .
Karthik

Hi
The other events you may need would be mostly for field level validations. The adobe framework allows one to write javascripts. Every UI element on the Adobe will have its own set of events. For eg say u want to fill a dropdown frm a RFC when an other UI in the form is clicked and you choose not to use the oncheck or submit action, here is the way:
Make the RFC a webservice, call the webservice using javascript in the onclick action of UI element 1. Similarly you can use other events to fill, validate and manipulate data. Finally once all that is done submit the data to SAP. Hope it helps. Thank you.

ADOBE pdf Forms upload on EP

Hi,
Can somebody pls tell me the steps to upload ADOBE pdf Forms on Eportal...
We have a requirement in which the user can download the pdf forms from EP & upload it again on EP doing some changes in pdf.
Thanks in Advance,
Nikesh Shah

Hi Nikesh,
As per your description you would like to use the PDF forms to update data in the CRM system. In that case you will be required to create a Webdynpro application which will work with some RFF/BAPI which will update data in the CRM tables.
To use Adobe forms you need to have Adobe LiveCycle Designer installed and configured with SAP EP Server.
The option you currently use is not linked to any backend system and that file is being stored in the KM repository of the EP server.
Please visit the following link for more details:

Adobe PDF form / submit sutton does nothing in Safari 5.1.2

Hi,
We display embedded Acrobat PDF forms containing a submit button in Safari.
If I press "submit" nothing happens, this worked some Safari versions before.
My Adobe Reader is: Adobe Reader X, Version 10.1.1
My Safari version is 5.1.2, I removed and reinstalled it, still does not work.
Reading this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8302233/pdf-submit-a-form-button-safari
"I contacted Adobe again, and their technical support was more helpful.
It is a known issue, and Adobe suggests using a different browser, or downgrade to Safari 5.0.1.
Adobe will soon issue a patch for this to work with Safari 5.1.1.
Well, I have 5.1.2 and this does not seam to be fixed yet.
Downgrading my Safari version to 5.0.1 made the Adobe PDF forms work again with Safari, the submit button does something.
Does anybody have some information about this? Is there another way to solve this issue then to downgrade to version 5.0.1 ?
Thanks for helping
huba

Hello,
I'm experiencing the same issue and wondered if you have any news re this problem or have found some workaround ?
I've performed tests on all verions of Safari 5.1.x including the latest 5.1.4 and unfortunately the bug still exists.
Thanks in advance for your consideration and any help!

Problems with Adobe PDF forms in Web Dynpro Java

As of now , I have two major issues in developing Adobe PDF forms in Web Dynpro Java .
1.Text getting wrapped and repeated from the first line :
Any text field that flows to the next page gets wrapped at the end of the page and is again printed on the next page beginning from the first line .
For eg:
If I have 4 lines in a text field that is at the end of the page
1111111111111111111111
2222222222222222222222
3333333333333333333333
4444444444444444444444
and the page holds space for only two lines it prints the lines
1111111111111111111111
2222222222222222222222
in the first page and then proceeds to the next page and prints
1111111111111111111111
2222222222222222222222
rather than printing
3333333333333333333333
4444444444444444444444
2.No way to hide a page at runtime:
It is not possible to hide a page in a PDF form at runtime . If scripting is used , the page turns into a blank page but not hidden .
Any pointers on this????????
Helpful answers will be suitably rewarded with points!!!!

Yes,I am using the versions that you mentioned.
I have a node called MasterData which is the root node for my PDF Form.I have a node called GenData inside this node whose ctx_Appraisal_Type_Num attribute is bound to a hidden TextField in my form.In the docReady event of this TextField, I am writing the following FormCalc script to hide my SubForm whose Id is MngrCmptnc
if(MasterData.GenData.ctx_Appraisal_Type_Num == "2")
then
MasterData.MngrCmptnc.presence = "visible"
MasterData.MngrCmptnc.MngrCmptnc.presence = "visible"
MasterData.StrImp.presence = "visible"
else
MasterData.MngrCmptnc.presence = "hidden"
MasterData.MngrCmptnc.MngrCmptnc.presence = "hidden"
MasterData.StrImp.presence = "hidden"
endif

How to dynamically assign Display Pattern using FormCalc in Adobe PDF Form

I am using Adobe PDF Form Designer. I am trying to dynamically assign a display pattern like MM/DD/YYYY to the Field tab - Display Pattern property. May I know how to do that?
I am using FormCalc scripting.

hi,
After placing the date field in layout from data view, u will get tabs like field,layout,border etc..
In field tab under the edit pattern specify the pattern in which you want to display the date field.
hope this works.

Adobe PDF forms using tcode SFP - Nested tables... Please help

Hi Friends,
I have some strange issues when I am trying to create a nested dynamic table with SAP DATA in Adobe Designer.
In the context, under the MAIN node
I had dragged the header table. Under the header table I had dragged the item table and had created a WHERE condition to link the HEADER and ITEM table.
Now my layout is pretty complicated..
I want to result to be as below:
header row.... with 0001 Customer name
item row with 0001 0010 price qty
0001 0020 price qty
0001 0030 price qty
header row... field4
(field4 from the header table has to be displayed after the item table has generated all the items and this process should repeat for all header data)
My design in layout is as below
subform1 for headerdata
( set as positioned and has set to 'Repeat form for each data item')
headerdata fields for subform1 (field1, field2, field3)
subform2 for itemdata
(set as folowed)
subform3 for itemdata
(set as positioned, 'Allow page breaks within content' and had set 'Repeat form for each data item')
itemdata fields in subform3
subform4 for headerrow field4
but when I activated and execute the form, the result was wrong.
The result should be like below...
|->field1, field2, field3
|--->field1 charge111
|--->field1 charge211
|-> field4
|->field2
|--->field2 charge122
|--->field2 charge222
|-> field4
but it is printed like below and field4 is overlapped with the item rows if the item rows are more...
DATA
|->field1 field2 field3
|--->field1 charge111 This inner table is overlapping the subform4 for each item
|--->field1 charge211
|
|->field1 field2 field3
|--->field1 charge121 This inner table is overlapping the subform4 for each item
|--->field1 charge221
2) If I have more item data, all the item rows are overlapped with the field4 (which I had explained in my layout) and the item rows are not moved to the next page, but still it is continued in the same page, meaning that if the page can fill 20 lines and my item row are more than 20 lines, 20 lines are printed and the remaining items are not moved to the next page... it is invisible...
How can I solve this issue?
Please help me

Hello John,
We define data in the context area only. The defined data in the context area will be available in the Layout area in the hierachy model(Data View tab).
In the Layout tab, we just need to design the form.
Hope I am clear. Please let us know if you want more details.
Thanks

Adobe forms nested table layout

Hi,
I have an xml input described by a schema including 3 level nested table like this:
Table1
__col1 col2 col3
__Table2
____col1 col2 col3
____Table3
______col1 col2 col3
In Adobe LC I have no problem to link the tables using Subforms but the PDF layout I get is very width because the subforms are lined up horizontal one after the other and some columns contains long strings.
I would like to place Subforms vertical with some indent, and get a layout more like this:
Table1 columns (first occurrence)
__Table2 columns (rows related to table1 first occurrence)
____Table3 columns (rows related to table2 first occurrence)
Table1 columns (second occurrence)
__Table2 columns (rows related to table1 second occurrence)
____Table3 columns (rows related to table2 second occurrence)
And so on.
When I try to move a Subform one under the other I get warnings about lost reference.
Please give me a hint how to do this.

Adobe PDF Form: Include text in table

Hi,
Im kinda new to Adobe Forms, and this may seem like a very basic question.
I have copied a standard SAP VAT invoice adobe form and Im making changes to it.
I have added an "include text" (which has multiple lines) to an already existing table with multiple columns.
The problem is that while the include text prints correctly when it expands, the entire table does not expand along with it.
So when the include text goes into many lines, it exceeds the table boundary and overwrites other areas of the form.
The table layout is like this .
Column1                Column2 Column3 Column4 Column5 Column6
Inc text                    50$        1.00       PAID       DELIV
Many Lines       -
Line3
Line4
Line5
Is there any grouping or somehting that i have to do?
Thanks,
John

Basically, you need to create a pdf form.
Add a text field to your form.
There you can choose which font your want the text to appear in.
The trick is, when you export from InDesign, in the "Advanced Tab" — set "Subset fonts when percentage…" to 0%, so the whole font embeds.'
I believe there's an option in Acrobat to embed the font as well, but I'm not recalling what it it.
But that will ensure the font appears correctly.
