Edited by: dasr r on Jul 9, 2008 8:49 AM

A lot of developers build a Z function module that they call from the interface of the adobe form because
break points always work on functions.
If you are trying to debug a standard form then Im not sure what you can do then.
So what is the name of the form? and which module? more info please.

Break point in smart form

Dear Gurus....
I am new to smartforms. I have a report which is to be integrated with smart form. I want each PO should start from a new page. I have tried putting an alternative and command in main window but it doesnot solve my problem. Please help me out as i need the solution very urgently...
please mail me the solution here or to my mail id [email protected]
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ajay,
If your question is regarding break point, then create a program line node before the alternative condition and code "break-point". Next time when you execute the program it will stop at this point.
Please let me know what are you displaying in the form. I understand that you want to have a page break for each PO. Are using Table node?
Thanks

HI How to set a Break point In Smart Forms

Hi Guys,
i want to set a break-point in main window of the smart form ,before dispalying
values of the varibles in the main window .
How to Set a break-point And What are the ways to set a break point.
Thanks for All.
From
Hitu.

Hi Hitu,
Generally, Break Points are set for the purpose of debugging in Smartforms.
For debugging , one of the way is :
1. Write BREAK POINT in the code window.
2. Put a break point on the call function in the driver program
3. Put a break point in the generated Function module.
Hope this resolves your query.

How to change the page break in adobe forms

Does anyone know how to change the page break on an adobe form? I'm hoping it will be the same way you change the page view in excel.
Can anyone help?
Thank you in advance,
Priscilla

HI
 YOU CAN USE THE FOLLOWING SYSTEM FIELDS OF SMARTFORMS FOR THE MENTIONED PURPOSE
&SFSY-PAGE& 
 Inserts the number of the current print page into the text. You determine the format of the page number (for example, Arabic, numeric) in the page node.
&SFSY-FORMPAGES&
 Displays the total number of pages for the currently processed form. This allows you to include texts such as'Page x of y' into your output
&SFSY-JOBPAGES& 
 Contains the total page number of all forms in the currently processed print request.

Integration of Adobe forms in Enterprise Portal

Manager Self Service:
Say suppose i want to integrate "Change Personnel Area and Sub Area" into Portal:
I can deploy the MSS Business Package in Portal & with the appropriate iviews installed i can access "Change Personnel Area and Sub Area" in Portal.
The above thing works without any issues.
I have ads configured, acf & adobe lifecycle designer installed -- config tests are successfull for some sample webdynpro applications.

NEW Requirement:
Users want to see the same "Change Personnel Area and Sub Area (ISR_FORM_SPPA, ISR_IF_SPPA) " in Portal as adobe interactive forms.
Can you tell me where i have to start to accomplish the above task?
Any insight on the below stuff would be higly appreciated and rewarded.
1)?backend tcode sfp?
2)?web dynpro java?
3)?business package Enterprise Portals?
Thanks in Advance,
RK.

you can edit anything you like to .
If you want to modify any ESS / MSS Application, you need to have the source code of these XSS DC's as well in your Design Time, else it will give you build errors.
For this you need to have a JDI setup since the MSS and XSS are provided in two different tracks of DTR.
As far as I know because of the used dependency of ESS/MSS Applications, using JDI is the best (and only) option to modify the ESS/MSS WebDynpro Applications.
And then implementing the JDI, helps in version management .The only way to unpack ESS/MSS / PCUI_GP components properly for development is through NWDI. So NWDI is mandatory.
For further information please go through the link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/b0/ee3441d95dd92be10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
Since you are interested in adding the adobe forms you need to have adobe server setup and then you can modify the existing webdynpro application to point to adobe forms.
In SDN tutorials tehre is a link for adobe applications, which you can try on your own. This has been asked many times in the forums and you will get the details with a simple search.
Hope this helps!

Adobe Forms - Page Break via a Conditional Break

Having read through the forum I am getting the impression that Page Breaks is a bit of a problem.
I can enforce a page break between datasets by setting "After:" to "Goto Next Page", on the Object->Pagination tab, however this results in a blank page at the end of the entire output which is just the Master Page with all the static elements.
The 'Conditional Breaks' sounds like the logical point to force a page break based on a combination of inequality or if a particular data element equals a known value.
However, I don't seem to be able to get the 'Conditional Break' to work.
So, the question I would like to ask, is how can you tell if the conditional break logic is correct and whether or not it is running? For example on an ABAP system is it possible to run it and debug it?
My attempts at getting the break to open a pop up or write to disk via JavaScript fails, which is leading me to think they are being ignored by the Adobe Form at both the server and client level.
Is it possible that I have missed another setting somewhere else in the Adobe form configuration?

Hello Jason!
You are right that conditions (and all scripting) are bit tricky in this solution. Still they work.
Debugging of AIF at ABAP side is not possible due to the architecture of the solution - from the ABAP POV it is just a web-service call and receiving result (PDF) back. You can't stop it on midpoint or intercept it somehow.
At the same time there are other ways to check it.
First, you can enable trace and saving additional info in SFP transaction under Utilities -> Settings.
Details see [here|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/f7/a04aee0cb94978a011401311efe603/frameset.htm]
And the nice way to check if your condition block is taken into the account is simple check like 1 = 2.
If this works and you receive page break than all you need is find errors in your condition syntax, otherwise the problem is somewhere else.

Petr Perstnev

How does Adobe Forms Central base their automated page breaks when distributing to a PDF form?

OR
How can I define those page breaks before Adobe Forms Central created the PDF. I have attempted to "insert" a page break within the form; however, when distributing this form to be created as a PDF, the PDF is still placing the auto-generated page break wherever it wants.
Is it possible to move these auto generated breaks once the PDF form is created?
Thank you!

Did you add the page breaks while in Web View or Page View? FormsCentral uses "web view" as the default, but uses the "page view" to show where the PDF will have page breaks. Go to the menu bar on the top right, select "view," and then select "page view." You should be able to see page breaks here, and move them where you'd like them. It won't affect what people see on the web, just in the PDF.

Page Break in Adobe Form

Hi,
I have 10 line items in a table. i would like to display first 5 line item in first page of Adobe form and remaining 5 line item in 2nd page of Adobe form. How to do that?Since i have more space in first page itself it is showing all the items in first page itself.
Any help is appreciated.

You can achieve this by defining conditional breaks on subform.
Select the Subform and then goto Object tab, in this Pagination tab.
In Pagination tab, click on Edit and define the condition. And then you can select where your next data should go.

Page break,sub total and grand total in adobe forms

hi,
In adobe forms, i am displaying purchase order details in table format. internal table contains 150 records but it displaying
only 50 records in single page. how i have to call a new page,how i have to create a page preak and i want to display only
5 records for a page with carry forward,page total and total net value.

Hi Sivaprasath,
For the table content to flow onto the next pages please make sure that the outermost subform is NOT with the content property "Positioned".
For having only 5 records per page, you can design a deep structure with fields:
Table 1 (The table which will hold 5 records per page)
Page total
total net value
Have the table type of it defined in the form.
Put the logic for filling the table in such a way that each row of this nested table has 5 records and pagetotal and total net value.
then put it inside a subform and check the checkbox for "rpeat subformt for each data item".
Another way is to use Conditional breaks in Pagination tab.
Thanks and regards,
Priyanka

Smart form break point

hi,
i have kept break point in my smart form at any many places . but when i execute the smart form im unable to debug the code . its not stopping at the break points what could be the problem.

Hello Mahammad,
On activation, the smartform generates an function module.
To debug a smartform ,after activation you have to got to Environment->function module name and from there get the automatically generated function module name of your smartform.
Then goto SE37, and display the attributes of you function module.
Get the program name from there under the general data tab.
Then goto SE38, enter that program name and open it in dislpay mode.
There in the program in its last include which would be of kind, (INCLUDE /1BCDWB/LSFxxxxxxxF01),contains the coding of the smartform.
Now set the breakpoint in that include program and debug your smartform.
Hope it helps you.
Thanks Mansi

Table Overflow - Page Break - Multiple tables in Body page in Adobe forms

Hi,
I have to do a payslip in Adobe forms. I am using only Adobe for print forms.
Please redirect me to correct category if this is wrong category.
I am customizing standard form PYXXFO_SAP_PAYSLIP_IN01. (payslip for india through hrforms)
The standard form is entirely positional. So, if the contents of the table overflow, they are overwritten on the contents below.
So, I have to make corrections to adjust the payslip for table overflows.
My changes:
1. There are total 8 tables in form. I created content areas for each of them and assigned the subforms/tables to those content areas.
2. I converted the body page from positional to flowed, and applied the related pagebreak settings.
The problem I am facing:
When the earnings table overflows, the rest of the content is displayed on second page, in a continuous manner.
eg.
The structure of the form is:
Header details
earnings table   deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
now, if the earnings table overflows -
page 1:
Header details
earnings table (page break)
Page2:
(continued)earnings table
page3:
(continued)earnings table   deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
In this, the deduction table and form16 table is shown on 3rd page. I wish to show them on the first page as they have not overflown.
I am sure, I am missing something very small, but I am unable to understand what.
I tried all the possible combinations.
Does the main subform needs to be "positional"?
They way I expect it is:
page 1:
Header details
earnings table (page break)    deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
Page2:
{Header details - It would be great if I could have this}
(continued)earnings table
page3:
{Header details}
(continued)earnings table
Also, If this is successful, I would like to apply the same feature to rest 6-7 tables.

This was a duplicate question.
Kindly remove this thread if possible.
The solution for this thread is as follows:
I was sort of hoping that there should be some standard functionality available for this, it being Adobe, but there is not.
So, I had to run a work around. Quite a lengthy one.
What the problem was:
I needed to print around 4-5 tables adjacent to each other in single page and in verticals. What Adobe does is: it fills 1st table, then 2nd then 3rd and so on. So, if there is a page break due to large entries in the adobe, the contents breaks with rest of the tables being blank, but the content being filled sequentially.
What I did was:
I created a grand table with the structure having all the tables embedded in it. eg.
data: begin of grand_table occrs 0,
table_A type table_a_table_type,
table_B type table_b_table_type,
table_c type table_c_table_type,
end of grand_table.
Hence, I could include all the data in a one single grand table, and put the data in sequential manner.
