Calling a smart form or script

hi guys,
can we call 2 smartforms from the same driver program and call 2 sap scripts from same driver program if so can any one help me by giving some code for both smartform and scripts.
thanks
pavan.

Not sure about SmartForms, but yes to SAPscript.  You can do it in configuration.
For example-
Use txn NACE.
Select V1 for SALES and pick OUTPUT TYPES.
Select BA00 for the Order Confirmation and choose PROCESSING ROUTINES.
Select 1 for PRINTOUT and hit the details icon (magnifying glass).
You can list up to 5 programs and SAPscript layout sets.  They will all get processed in sequence.

  • Smart forms and script

    hi,,
           will u tell what is the difference between smart forms and scripts.

    hI
    Sapscripts are client dependend and smartforms are client independet.
    SAPscript are CLient Dependent, SmartForms are Client Independent. The reason why SmartForms are client independent is because when you activate a SMartForm, SAP actually generates a Function Module (which as you know is client independent). The Print Program (or as SAP likes to refer to them these days - Application Program) calls your generated FM.
    In the "smartforms" transaction, when you are viewing a smartform, you can go to the Environment->Function Module Name menu path to see the FM name.
    Look at the "Application Program" for the Invoice SmartForm (RLB_INVOICE):
    determine smartform function module for invoice
        CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
             EXPORTING  formname           = lf_formname
                    variant            = ' '
                    direct_call        = ' '
             IMPORTING  fm_name            = lf_fm_name
             EXCEPTIONS no_form            = 1
                        no_function_module = 2
                        OTHERS             = 3.
    call smartform invoice
          CALL FUNCTION lf_fm_name
               EXPORTING
                          archive_index        = toa_dara
                          archive_parameters   = arc_params
                          control_parameters   = ls_control_param
                    mail_appl_obj        =
                          mail_recipient       = ls_recipient

    <b>Difference with SMARTFORMS vs. SapScript (SE71)</b>
    The Following are the differences :-
    a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
    b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
    c) Labels cannot be created in smartforms.
    d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
    e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
    Contributed by : SAP ABAP/4 Programming, Basis Administration, Configuration Hints and Tips
    f) Unlike sapscripts (RSTXSCRP), you cannot upload/download Smartform to your local harddisk. 
    It was said that it was provided in CRM 3.0 version, but not available in R/3.  You can download smartforms into Local PC in a XML format.  In the same way you can upload this XML format into Smartform.  From the smartform editor itself you can call download option, if you are working in CRM 3.0 environment. 
    In R3 also, you can download into XML format. However, it's not sure about uploading. Refer to the program 'SF_XSF_DEMO'.
    In 4.7 Enterprise, other have seen this utlity which is completey missing in 4.6c. There is functionality to downlaod a complete form or only a particular node. (Utilities -> Download form). It will create a XML file and save it in the hard disk. 
    For others, if you want to download/upload the Smartforms source, you will need the help from the Basis people.  What you can do is to create a Transport and then FTP down to your local harddisk.   When you need the Smartform source in another system, you have FTP up the Smartforms file back to the SAP server.  Finally, the Basis team, will tp it into your system.
    g) The protect and endprotect command in sapscript doesn't work with smartforms. For example on a invoice: First data of position no 80. is printed on page one, other data of position no 80 is printed on page 2. And there's nothing you can do about it.  Actually, there is something you can do about it.  By using a folder node and checking the 'protect' checkbox, everything in that folder will be page protected. 
    i) The main difference is that SAP script is client-dependant, while smartform is independent. Also there are some advanced and intreractive features available in smartforms.
    You can use an External subroutine-call in sapscript editor like:
      /: perform <form_name> in program <program_name>
      /: using <var1>
      /: using <var2>
      /: changing <return1>
      /: changing <return2>
      /:endperform

    Hi,
    Go through the links mentioned below.

    Re: Hands on SAP Smart Forms
    smartforms
    A Simple Smartform Tutorial
    SAP Smartforms can be used for creating and maintaining forms for mass printing in SAP Systems. The output medium for Smartforms support printer, fax, e-mail, or the Internet (by using the generated XML output).
    According to SAP, you need neither have any programming knowledge nor use a Script language to adapt standard forms. However, basic ABAP programming skills are required only in special cases (for example, to call a function module you created or for complex and extensive conditions).
    1. Create a new smartforms
    Transaction code SMARTFORMS
    Create new smartforms call ZSMART
    2. Define looping process for internal table
    Pages and windows
    First Page -> Header Window (Cursor at First Page then click Edit -> Node -> Create)
    Here, you can specify your title and page numbering
    &SFSY-PAGE& (Page 1) of &SFSY-FORMPAGES(Z4.0)& (Total Page)
    Main windows -> TABLE -> DATA
    In the Loop section, tick Internal table and fill in
    ITAB1 (table in ABAP SMARTFORM calling function) INTO ITAB2
    3. Define table in smartforms
    Global settings :
    Form interface
    Variable name Type assignment Reference type
    ITAB1 TYPE Table Structure
    Global definitions
    Variable name Type assignment Reference type
    ITAB2 TYPE Table Structure
    4. To display the data in the form
    Make used of the Table Painter and declare the Line Type in Tabstrips Table
    e.g. HD_GEN for printing header details,
    IT_GEN for printing data details.
    You have to specify the Line Type in your Text elements in the Tabstrips Output options.
    Tick the New Line and specify the Line Type for outputting the data.
    Declare your output fields in Text elements
    Tabstrips - Output Options
    For different fonts use this Style : IDWTCERTSTYLE
    For Quantity or Amout you can used this variable &GS_ITAB-AMOUNT(12.2)&
    5. Calling SMARTFORMS from your ABAP program
    REPORT ZSMARTFORM.
    Calling SMARTFORMS from your ABAP program.
    Collecting all the table data in your program, and pass once to SMARTFORMS

    Additional Fonts for your SMARTFORMS
    You can create additional fonts and style with transaction SMARTSTYLES
    This can then be define in the paragraph and character formats, which you can then be assign to texts and fields in the Smart Form.
    The character formats includes effects such as superscript, subscript, barcode and font attributes.
    Also, you can refer to the below link for the explanation:

    Sapscript vs Smartforms
    Difference with SMARTFORMS vs. SapScript(SE71)
    The Following are the differences :-
    a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
    b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
    c) Labels cannot be created in smartforms.
    d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
    e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated
    Scripts are client dependent whereas smartforms aren't.
    Upto 99 main windows are possible in scripts and only one in smarforms.
    To create multiple main windows in scripts, you just have to give the window type as MAIN whnever you create a window.
    Scripts still exists but smartforms are in use from 4.6c version, now the lastest version of these two is adobe forms
    SAP Smart Forms is introduced in SAP Basis Release 4.6C as the tool for creating and maintaining forms.SAP Smart Forms allow you to execute simple modifications to the form and in the form logic by using simple graphical tools; in 90% of all cases, this won't include any programming effort. Thus, a power user without any programming knowledge can
    configure forms with data from an SAP System for the relevant business processes.
    Advantages of SAP Smart Forms
    SAP Smart Forms have the following advantages:
    1. The adaptation of forms is supported to a large extent by graphic tools for layout and logic, so that no programming knowledge is necessary (at least 90% of all adjustments). Therefore, power user forms can also make configurations for your business processes with data from an SAP system. Consultants are only required in special cases.
    2. Displaying table structures (dynamic framing of texts)
    3. Output of background graphics, for form design in particular the use of templates which were scanned.
    4. Colored output of texts
    5. User-friendly and integrated Form Painter for the graphical design of forms
    6. Graphical Table Painter for drawing tables
    7. Reusing Font and paragraph formats in forms (Smart Styles)
    8. Data interface in XML format (XML for Smart Forms, in short XSF)
    9. Form translation is supported by standard translation tools
    10. Flexible reuse of text modules
    11. HTML output of forms (Basis release 6.10)
    12. Interactive Web forms with input fields, pushbuttons, radio buttons, etc. (Basis-Release 6.10)

  • How to limit the number of rows in a smart form , sap script.

    Can anyone tell me how to limit the number of rows in the output of a sap script/smart form. I have tried "protect/endprotect" in sap script but have no idea of how to do in smart form. In sap script the only way it has happened is by reducing the size of the main window.

    Hi,
    In Smartform also, why dont you try reducing the size of the window if you want to limit the rows in it. Also if you are printing Line Items in a LOOP, you can write
    LOOP AT T_ITAB FROM 1 TO N in the LOOP Node if you know how many records exactly you want to display in 1 Page processing.

  • Error in calling/converting smart form from ECC to pdf in portal.

    Hi,
    We have a requirement in our project where we have to show IT form in portal exactly in the way payslip are shown in ESS
    Screen, that is in the pdf form in ess portal screen.
    For this my HR abap consultant has made one customize smart form which is being called from a RFC FM.
    After the FM lf_fm_name gets executed , the OTF data is being captured and then converted in to PDF.
    After that the PDF is then converted into XSTRING format which is then supplied to the portal side through export parameter
    of the RFC.
    Now when we debugged the RFC, the conversion is taking place perfectly fine in to XSTRING.This is wat we assume.
    Portal Side: I have used Iframe ui ELEMENT in my webdynpro java and its property source I have binded with a value attribute
    of type string and I am executing above customize RFC given to me by my HR abap consultant and after executing that RFC with
    userID and payroll year as its import parameter I am taking export parameter of that RFC with name pdf_string of type XSTRING
    of that RFC into my webdynpro java value attribute which i binded to source property of Iframe.
    Now when we see the output in portal , first of all pdf is not getting generated and its showing the error message:
    file does not begin with '%pdf-' and secondly errored Adobe form getting opened outside Iframe window its not coming within
    Iframe window like what payslip comes inside Iframe UI element.
    I want to know what mistake we are doing in our ABAP coding or portal coding.
    Please help.

  • Find the translation of smart form and script

    Hi, I am new in this forum. 30.04.2009
    1.) I have to translate a smart form from German to english and to hungry. I use SE63 translate the text. The elements get a new name with the language in the name. I activate it.
    In the formula at the form attributes -> translate -> in all languages
    I put it in a transport, but where they are??? I can see it there are with the name in the Formula.
    I can not find the translation.
    2.) I must change the formula, I must translate it again? I use SE63. I don't find the
    translation of the formula. The same like oben.
    I hope you can help me.
    With best regards
    Heinz

    Hi Heinz,
    1) You do not see the translation of the SmartForm in the TP request. The idea is that it will get transported with all the associated texts from SE63.
    2) You cannot translate texts that only have variables (&abc& elements) in them. The idea is that they will remain the same in whichever language you will use.So, changing the formula in the original language means it will be changed in all the languages.
    But, if you have a row something like: Material &matnr& produced in &country&, this row will appear in SE63 and you will have to translate it because it contains texts outside of variables.

    George

  • WANT THE TCODE FOR SMART FORMS AND SCRIPTS IN FI MODULE?

    HI SHAREHOLDERS OF SAP,
    I WANT TO KNOW THE TRANSACTION CODES FOR SCRIPTS AND SMARTFORMS RELATED TO FI MODULE.
    WE ARE GOING THROUGH UP GRADATION PROJECT.SO I NEED THE TCODE FOR OBSOLETED TCODE FOR SCRIPTS TO SMARTFORMS IN FI.

    Hi Arun Kumar,
    Generally we do changes in SE71 itself for any forms
    but the forms of FI module, we assign in SPRO.
    Goto SPRO there click on Display SAP Reference IMG push button or  (F5) .
    Now search for FORMS. Give the Search term as FORMS and press enter.
    Here u get the hit list for FORMS related to all the functional modules. select the FI related forms and double click on it. Then u get the dropdown where the forms are located.
    Foe Example here is a path for Assign payment forms for payment method in company code
    In SPRO --->Display IMG
    Financial Accounting---> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable ---> Business Transactions ---> Outgoing payments ---> Automatic outgoing payments ---> Payment media -> Make Setting for Classic Payment Medium Programs-> Assign payment forms for payment method in company codes
    EXECUTE  Assign payment forms for payment method in company codes
    Here u can see all the formS related to the Payment Advice.
    Hope this helps...

    Hi, I have create a smart form that have one text element and one command. The command is for do a page break.
    I have seen that you can call the smart form from a program doing:
    1.-'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
    2.-call function fm_name
    That is not ok for me because I want to call to the smart forms manually as befores it done with sap-script, open form, write , close form...
    What function Have I to use to call to the text element?
    What function Have I to use to call to the command?
    Someone have and example calling a smart form from an abap.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Vinod, I do not understand very good that you propose.
    I explain more details of I have to do:
    I have a abap program that read and write some data, I want to pass every line of the report to smart form, and in some lines comes a break page that I have to force also in the smart form, the idea
    LOOP AT ITAB.
       IF ITAB-LINE EQ '<BREAK>'.
    BREAK PAGE IN SMART FORM
       ELSE.
    PASS ITAB-LINE TO SMART FORM
       ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    In order to do that I have created in the smart forms one text element X_LINE that represents every line and a command NEWPAGE that force page break.
    Is possible to do that I want by the way that you propose?
    Thanks in advance.
