ok...so help me..

Hi,
I wouldn´t recommend to migrate to SAPscript, because this is an old technology that in future versions is going to be not supported any more by SAP; therefore, you´ll have to migrate SAPscript forms to SmartForms or AdobeForms.
There´s a migration tool from SAPscript to SmartForms but not on the opposite way. You never get that from a new version to an old version.
What do you mean by a table ?? a table like in SmartForms is not supported by SAPscript, ´cause the graphical design is very poor. It is more for text display. You can create windows and set the line borders and also you can make the background gray or dark but that´s all.

Smartform to sapscript

Hi guys ,
I would like to know if we can use a from layout designed in smartform in a sapscript.It is so damn fussy to design it in sap script and the windows do not align properly with the grid in sap script ,which makes the form look little zig zag.I have designed the layout in smartforms now if possible I would like to use it in sap script .
Please give your suggestions.

hi
Smartform is the new print solution techniques provided by SAP but it has a disadvantage that the layouts developed in Smartform cannot be used in SAPSCRIPT. Since Smartform is a new print solution, SAP Scripts can be migrated to smartform..If u want to use the sap script print program for smartform then u need to convert it removing all the FM used for script form.

Smartform and sapscript..

in which scenario v prefer smartform over sapscripts and in which scenarios sapscript over smartforms?

Hi,
Smartforms are better to use than scripts as they provide more facility like color, graphical user interface etc, but scripts are the oldest form of layout available in SAP. There is no advantage of using script over smartform. This entirely depends on the choice in case of new developments. However, if you have to change/customize existing script then you have to deal with scripts only.
Difference with SMARTFORMS vs SapScript(SE71).
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) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
d) Unlike sapscripts (RSTXSCRP), you cannot upload/download Smartform to your local harddisk.
e) In smartforms there is only one main window.
In scripts we can create 99 main windows.
f) Smartforms are client independent. but scripts are client dependent.
g) we can execute smartforms directly without driver program. But it is not possible in script.
h) peform statement is possible in script but not in smartforms.
i) loop statement is possible in smartforms.
In script for every data record controls moves from
script to driver program and to script.
In smrtforms this is not rquired.
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.
i) 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.

Conversion of SAPSCRIPT to SMARTFORMS
SAP provides a conversion for SAPscript documents to SMARTforms.
This is basically a function module, called FB_MIGRATE_FORM. You can start this function module by hand (via SE37), or create a small ABAP which migrates all SAPscript forms automatically.
You can also do this one-by-one in transaction SMARTFORMS, under
Utilities -> Migrate SAPscript form.

Idoc generation and reprint for smartforms and sapscripts

Dear Experts,
Currently our scenario is as below.
We are using XML for all outputs. once IDOC is generated it is passed to XML port and print is issued.
To reprint IDOC we have a customised program where in we can enter idoc number and print output.
Now we are converting all to smartforms and at some places sapscript. So how to setup reprint for idocs in smartforms and sapscript as it is done for sapscripts. Do we need to make some config in WE19 to issue smart forms and sapscripts.
If possible please give all steps right from preparing structures till reprint.
Can anyone help with detailed solutions.

Conversion PDF Form to Smartforms or Sapscript possible?

Hi Gurus,
Is it possible to convert a pdf form to a Smartforms form or sapscript form?
Reason is because for some new pdf forms like IDCN_CASHFLOW there is no proper form in Smartforms or Sapscript available.
2nd reason is customer does not have an ADS installed.
Thanks+Regards
Dieter

Hi Dieter,
generally no such tool.
However, the Adobe form is designed to separate the data logic and layout logic, therefore an experienced smartform+adobe form developer can convert it manually without very large effort.
Since the SAPscript form mixes the data logic and layout logic, it is not recommended be used no more.
Cheers.

What are Smartforms and SAPscripts?

Hey Everyone,
Where do we use Smartforms and SAPscripts...how to we create these...if u have step step procedures that will be helpful...
Thanks in Advance...
Cheers:
Jim

Smartform is client indep.
Scripts is client dependent.
Smartform will generate function module.
Script will not.
Tcode for scripts is se71
Tcode for smartforms is smartforms
go to sap library ............ their u can find the step by step procedure............
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.
Execute transaction SMARTFORMS to start SAP Smart Forms.
Key Benefits of SAP Smart Forms:
SAP Smart Forms allows you to reduce considerably the implementation costs of mySAP.com solutions since forms can be adjusted in minimum time. You design a form using the graphical Form Painter and the graphical Table Painter. The form logic is represented by a hierarchy structure (tree structure) that consists of individual nodes, such as nodes for global settings, nodes for texts, nodes for output tables, or nodes for graphics.
To make changes, use Drag & Drop, Copy & Paste, and select different attributes. These actions do not include writing of coding lines or using a Script language.
Using your form description maintained in the Form Builder, Smart Forms generates a function module that encapsulates layout, content and form logic. So you do not need a group of function modules to print a form, but only one. For Web publishing, the system provides a generated XML output of the processed form. Smart Forms provides a data stream called XML for Smart Forms (XSF) to allow the use of 3rd party printing tools. XSF passes form content from R/3 to an external product without passing any layout information about the Smart Form.
To print a form, you need a program for data retrieval and a Smart Form that contains the entire from logic. As data retrieval and form logic are separated, you must only adapt the Smart Form if changes to the form logic are necessary. The application program passes the data via a function module interface to the Smart Form. When activating the Smart Form, the system automatically generates a function module. At runtime, the system processes this function module.
You can insert static and dynamic tables. This includes line feeds in individual table cells, triggering events for table headings and subtotals, and sorting data before output.
You can check individual nodes as well as the entire form and find any existing errors in the tree structure. The data flow analysis checks whether all fields (variables) have a defined value at the moment they are displayed.
SAP Smart Forms allow you to include graphics, which you can display either as part of the form or as background graphics. You use background graphics to copy the layout of an existing (scanned) form or to lend forms a company-specific look. During printout, you can suppress the background graphic, if desired.
SAP Smart Forms also support postage optimizing.
Also read SAP Note No. 168368 - Smart Forms: New form tool in Release 4.6C
Example Forms Available in Standard SAP R/3
SF_EXAMPLE_01
Simple example; invoice with table output of flight booking for one customer
SF_EXAMPLE_02
Similar to SF_EXAMPLE_01 but with subtotals
SF_EXAMPLE_03
Similar to SF_EXAMPLE_02, whereby several customers are selected in the application program; the form is called for each customer and all form outputs are included in an output request.

Use Smartform or SAPScript

Hi Guys,
I have not used Smartform and SAPScript. I have given task to create a Shop floor paper (IW32) in a required format. Kindly advise me which will easier to learn quickly, so that I can make the PO form.
Thanks,
mini

I think you should see if SAP has delivered something similar to what you need and then copy and use it whether it is SAPScript or Smartform. If memory serves, there should be a shop paper SAPScript somewhere.

How can I migrate from Outlook 2011 to iCal and Apple Address Book in Mavericks now that synching is no longer possible?

Now that I am on Mavericks and no longer able to sync between my iPhone/iPad and Outlook 2011 on my MacBook Pro, I'm finally taking the leap (which I should have done long ago) and abandoning Outlook 2011 all together (doesn't help that Outlook now prompts me to rebuild by Identity multiple times per day). I am hoping to export from Outlook to iCal, Address Book, etc, but I would love it if someone could check my steps.
Delete iCal and Apple Address Book content -- Because I have old data in iCal and Address Book (that was synched before I upgraded to Mavericks), I planned to delete this data as follows:
Manually deleting my multiple calendars in the iCal app
Go to Go>Home>Library>Calendars and drag "Calendar Cache" to trash
Go to Go>Home>Library>Caches and drag "com.apple.iCal" and "com.apple.AddressBook" to the trash
Go to Go>Home>Library>Application Support and drag "Address Book" to the trash
Export Outlook 2011 Calendars to iCalIs there a file format that I can use to export from Outlook 2011 and then import into iCal? I will use this file format to individually export each of my calendars from Outlook 2011 and import them into iCal.
Export Outlook 2011 Contact List to Apple Address BookIs there a file format that I can use to export from Outlook 2011 and then import into Apple Address Book?
Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi acs4055,
As per your query I found a relevant solution for resolving this, actually I haven’t tried the steps you wrote here in your query. But I found a solid key answer for exporting from Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9.1) Outlook 2011 to iCal for Apple mail. This is possible through Drag and Drop method via this you can undoubtedly migrate Outlook 2011 Calendar to ical format.
Hope it will assist you and you will be able to attain a desired solution.

How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?

How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?
I used to store my pictures on an external hard drive using the latest version of Aperture. Now I tried migrating my Aperture library to Photos. However, after a short moment an error message popped up telling me that "Photos was unable to make a copy of your library before preparing it. Photos does not have the necessary permissions...".
My external HDD doesn't need any permission repairs nor is the system prohibited to read from or write to it.
Thanks for any advice in advance!

My guess is that the encryption is the problem for the new app.

Can I migrate data from "old" user account to new user after clean install?

I've just done a clean install of Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro (I erased system drive before install). I've upgraded SL to 10.6.2 using a generic administrator account. And I have an exact bootable clone of my old data (SuperDuper backup on external drive).
I don't care about migrating all my old software; I'll reinstall it. But I would like to migrate system preferences, mail accounts, iCal calendars, and keychains etc. And some silly part of me wants to REname my username. (Also: I can't use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant because some part of the old image has Microsoft Entourage hooks in Mail and MobileMe that I want to get rid of.)
So here's my question: if I create a new account with the NEW user name I want to start using, can I STILL then copy over my old data? I don't know which of the below stuff has my old user name embedded in the data. Here's the list:
Your data in ~/Documents
~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
~/Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder)
Also in ~/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need)
~ /Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
~/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist *This is a very important file which contains all email account settings and general mail preferences.
~ /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)
~/Library/Application Support/Safari (copy the whole folder)
~/Library/Application Support/iMovie (copy the whole folder)
~/Pictures/iPhoto library
~/Music/iTunes
~/Movies/iMovie
Thanks for any input! I know a lot of people here have done clean installs, so I appreciate anything you can share.

what exactly do you mean by that? you can use Migration Assistant to migrate your user only (no applications). that should most likely suffice and i don't think Entourage will be a problem. you'll have to delete various entourage folders in your documents folder afterward if you don't plan on using it anymore.
So here's my question: if I create a new account with the NEW user name I want to start using, can I STILL then copy over my old data?
yes, as bdmarsha said, your user name is not mentioned anywhere in your home directory.
I don't know which of the below stuff has my old user name embedded in the data. Here's the list:

How can I migrate data from an old MBA to a new one without having access to the screen of the old one? The screen of the old MBA is damaged !

If your "older" MBA has a Thunderbolt port then it isn't that old. See Target Disk Mode about how it's used. Note that without a monitor you won't be able to tell from the screen when it has fully started, and if it succeeded in starting in TDM. If it did, then the hard drive should appear on the Desktop of your new computer. You can then access it to transfer your files. You can even use Migration Assistant or any backup utility to transfer data. Just don't try to transfer system files.
