Call standard adobe form from a WD application

Hi All,
I have a requirement of displaying a standard adobe form from a click of a button in a WDA portal,
I am an ECC developer and have no idea of WD. I created a function module which uses submit statement to invoke the driver program and displays the PDF output, but when this function module is invoked from the portal on the click of button it gives and error FP job open error.
I understand that displaying PDF wont work in this way on portal, so can anyone please guide me the correct procedure on how to achieve this.
I came across this thread
[Regarding adobe form using Webdynpro ABAP|Regarding adobe form using Webdynpro ABAP]
which mentions of feeding the complete PDF document to the UI element as an XSTRING context node bound to the pdfSource property, but the help link provided in the thread is not opening.
Thanks in advance.

Kartik

Calling Oracle Ebusiness Forms from a Webcenter Portal application

Hello All,
Would there be any known/standard procedure of calling Oracle EBusiness Forms from a Custom WebCenter Portal Application. The issue we are facing currently is that we are successfully able to call an Oracle EBS Forms as a GO Link from the application. The problem is when there are multiple links to open different EBS Forms. Multiple instances of the Forms sessions are created. We would like to have only one. We are trying to mimic the Oracle EBusiness Home Page / Landing Page.
Any pointers are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Nachi

Hi.
Are you using Portal or Framework Portal?.
In case of <noscript> is generated by JAVA internal classes and the unique way to change the message is with a Non supported workaround overriding a CoreBundle class.
About the af:skipLinkTarget usually is in the Page Template. The default templates has it in next snippet:
<f:facet name="center">
    <af:skipLinkTarget>
    <af:facetref facetname="content">
    </af:facetref>
</af:skipLinkTarget>
</f:facet>
If you're using default Templates then copy them and remove the af:skipLinkTarget tag from the copied one and assign it to the Portal.
I hope it helps.
Regards.

Adobe forms from scratch - Standard programs?

Hi,
I have just begun trying to implement Adobe forms from scratch at my company. Previosly we have used an external printing solution so I can't convert anything. My plan is to create a new output medium and let the users select the new type by themself. But I have a couple of questions:
1. How do I create a new medium (Examples: Print output/Fax/Telex, as found in t-code NACT - Processing routines)
2. I guess there are SAP standard printing programs, interfaces and forms, but I can't find them. I need to be able to print all the usual docs from orders, deliveries and invoices. All I have in NACT are old home-made (Z*) programs so if you know what SAP think we should use now, please let me know!
We have ERP6 ehp4 on netweaver 7 ehp1 and I have created one "Adobe form" myself so I can confirm that it works. but I don't want to invent the wheel twice...
Thanx in advance!
Br Linus Hellsing

Hi Linus,
I was wondering if you had a moment to comment on an opportunity that I am having regarding Adobe forms development efforts?
If so, please read on:
Our offshore team has worked on a development effort to replace Smart Forms PO's and Contracts with Adobe forms. They created new output types for these Adobe forms. In testing I noticed that the only way I can get them to print - is if I go into Print Preview and print -or- use SP01 and click on the .pdf icon and print. In both cases it uses Adobe Acrobat to perform the actually printing.
We cannot seem to get them to print using the normal SAP message utility. Our users would expect to continue to:
1. Use the Messages button while in the PO document - and select the new output type along with Meduim= Printed Output...
2. Then they select Further data button - to specify Send Immediately.
3. Then they use the Communication Method tab and specify the Logical Destination (as LOCL) and click on the Check box for Print immediately.
They get what appears to be an rambling of Adobe error lines followed by many blank pages....
At this point I am not sure if the print program is working correctly - or if the problem is with Adobe Document Services?
Have you ever encountered a situation like this during your Adobe development efforts?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Regards,
Steve

Call XML Schema based Adobe form from ABAP Program

Hi,
I have a scenario where an online Interactive form is designed and its working fine. Now i have a requirement to call the same Adobe form from a report for viewing purpose. Since it is XML Schema based Interface, is it possible to call the same form instead of creating a new one with the same template? Because i tried to call the same Adobe form by passing the values and converting those to XML(By Creating Transformation). Then i converted the XML to XSTRING and passed to the Generated Function Module for Input paramter "/1bcdwb/docxml". This resulted in an error "com.adobe.ProcessingException: com.adobe.Processin".
Please help me out in solving this and check the attachment for code.
Thanks,

Is it possible to call a 9i Forms from a 6i Forms ?

Hello,
I have a customer using CRM 11.5.10.2 ( Database 9.2.0.6 / 6i Forms) and will be created a functionality in the CRM screen, where end user will call (via button) a custom application running on 9i Forms.
Customer believes that there is a technical limitation to achieve that. That is, call a 9i Forms from a 6i Forms.
Is it possible to call a 9i Forms from a 6i Forms ?
Thank you in advanced for help,
Marcos Souza.

I should have thought so, as Forms 9i is exclusively web-driven, so how you launch the URL is immaterial as long as you use a supported browser. As your Forms 9i apps will invariably be on a remote web server, you'll not encounter compatibility issues either. And Forms 6 and 9 development is possible on the same PC using multiple Oracle Homes. Ask Oracle beforehand if you are still not convinced.

Error "Job already started" when calling a adobe form in Z function module

Hi All,
I have a error when calling a adobe form in a custom function module.
I am using FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME to get the adobe form function module and then i am using FP_JOB_OPEN function module to control the printing parameters such as no print preview or no dialog ..etc.. I dont have any exceptions during the call of FP_JOB_OPEN function module ..
Later I am calling my function module which was generated for the adobe form and i am getting the error called " JOB ALREADY STARTED".
I tried executing the same function module in se37 and the PDF form output was generated, and also by commenting FP_JOB_OPEN function module the PDF form output was generated.
But i need the FP_JOB_OPEN function module to control the output based on the output type which triggers the form output such as the medium from nast record which says print or email or fax.. etc
Please let me know how to handling this error.

Just as a followup note. If you are testing a function module from SE37 and the test button you will get a value in SY-CPROG. You must override this value for everything to work.
If you override the value of SY-CPROG with the main program that will be calling the function module you have no problem.

Problem using RFC to call an adobe form to create pdf file........

Hi,
   I have an RFC that calls an adobe form to display the pdf output back in a bsp page...the RFC fails at the call to the adobe form (next call after after getting the form name) ...while debugging it looks like within this call it is trying to call fpcomp_job_open and failing on the call check_job_open ...
The code in my RFC looks like this....

Thanks,
Venkatesh

what is the solution for this problem? I have the same problem. I get sy-subrc = 1 after CALL FUNCTION 'FPCOMP_JOB_OPEN'.
If I look more in detail I see that "Perform check_job_open" is creating the problem:
FORM check_job_open.
IF fpstat-is_opened = c_true. (--> exactly here is the problem. This condition is true so the program is terminated.)
    PERFORM reset_status.
    MESSAGE ID 'FPRUNX' TYPE 'E' NUMBER '101' RAISING usage_error.
ENDIF.
fpstat-is_opened = c_true.
fpstat-is_started = c_false.
ENDFORM.
Does somebody know why my job is open and what is the solution to have the job closed at the beginning of my processing?
Thanks in advance.
