Changing script to smartforms fro chk priniting

Hi ,
I have to do a check priniting using the F110 transaction.
We were previously using a Script but then as per one requireemnt where in the number was to displayed in a white colour in a black box ;as this functionality cannot be acheived using the script, I was think whether we can use a smartform and assign it the corresponding print program.and use it in the F110 transaction.
Thanks and regards,
Avi.

Migrate script to Smartforms

Hello ,
Background :
1) After I migrate Script to smartforms . I get around 200 windows .
As 200 windows have been defined in a script .( 1 window per box).
2) The layouts are pretty complex and it would take around 2-3 days to create a new smartform .
3) I cannot use the existing scripts for a few modifications have to be made to header and footer and it's easier to make them in smartforms
4)The output after migration is good . A few Modifications But it's fine.
Problem :
i)Would it lead to a performance problem due to presence of 200 windows if I migrate .
ii)Would it lead to maintainance problem if I migrate as I cannot see all the 200 windows at once in the form painter . I can see only the window on which I have placed the cursor .
Kindly Help me find a solution.

Thanks Sooness .
Actually there are around 12 scripts .
So Total Development time will be around 30 days if I create a new smartform. since the layout is very complex .
And 9 days if I migrate scripts to smartforms with changes ..
So the Conflict in my my mind is whether to go for less Development Time now and maintainance problem later
Would a good TS / FS documented as follows suffice :
1) By taking a printout of the layout .
2)Writing the variable name in each window .
3)Scanning it and using it as FS.
I feel FS/TS is usually not read afterwards .
So even after documentation , Maintainace problem will not be solved .
I do not have that much time . So I would have to put extra efforts at night for creation of new smartforms.
i have to deliver them in 15/20 days .
So Do you suggest putting extra efforts now to make a new smartforms to avoid maintainence problem later .
Kindly give your valuable suggestion.

How to transport scripts and smartforms layouts

Hi All,
would you let me know how to trasport scripts and smartform along with layouts???
thanks in advance for your replies.
Regards,
Riyaz

SAP Script Form
If you want to copy the forms between clients on the same system (between a client 100 and 150 on a DEV box for example) Use the copy between clients option available from the Utilities menu of SE71. If you want to transport the form between DEV & QA or QA & PRD then follow the normal transport
procedure (ensuring that your BASIS team know to import your form into each client of the new box).
Regarding the Print Program, follow the standard procedure for normal ABAP Objects. Do SCC1 for transfer between clients on same system and normal transport procedure to different system.
SMART FORMS
A Smartform is transported no differently than any other object. if it is assigned to a development class that is atteched to a transport layer, it will be transported.
The definition is transported, and when called, the function module is regenerated.
This leads to an interetsing situation. On the new machine, it is very likely the function module name will be different than the name on the source system. Make sure, before you call the function module, you resolve the external name to the internal name using the 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME' function module.
Typically, generate the SF, then use the pattern to being in the interface. Then change the call function to use the name you get back from the above function module.
Hope this helps.

Change VL70 to Smartform (from SapScript)

I need to change the form output on VL70 from SapScript to SmartForm. I converted the SAPscript to a SmartForm but I can't figure out where the SAPscript is being called from to call the new SmartForm. If anybody could give me some assistance I would be grateful.

Hi,
Sap script will have a Driver program, and this both Driver program and Script will be configured in the NACE transaction, so for this smartform you need a Driver program to call the Smartform(Generate the function module and call the function module) ..

String search in SAP Script and Smartforms

Hi All,
We have an urgent requirement where we need to search for a character string in all SAP Scripts and Smartforms in our system.
It would also help if we can get the names of programs/function modules which are internally generated for the same.
Any pointers on the same would be helpful.
Regards,
Saurabh

You can create a variable window in the main window.
You can restrict the last item of the main window by varying the size of main window. In your wite-form ,
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
 EXPORTING
 element = 'ITEM'
 function = 'SET'
 type = 'BODY'
 window = 'MAIN'
 EXCEPTIONS
 element = 1
 function = 2
 type = 3
 unopened = 4
 unstarted = 5
 window = 6
 bad_pageformat_for_print = 7
 spool_error = 8
 codepage = 9
 OTHERS = 10.
 IF sy-subrc <> 0.
DO this. in the bottom of the main window, create a variable window.
you can add your text in the variable window inside main window.
it will be displayed just after the item ends.

Changing script from CS2 to CS4

Hi everyone!
Having a bit of a problem (not to mention working against a deadline) with an old CS2 script created for a client. ESTK throws up an "Undefined is not an object" error.
Below is the code that seems to be the culprit. ESTK stops on the line after the .place(), assuming here that it's because the .place() doesn't return a proper object or something like that (I hate when they change scripting around too much).
Basically, what it does is placing an image into the first paragraph of a table cell. It then tries to set the dimensions to a "maximum" size and then fits the image proportionally to those dimensions.
> tmpBild = "B0000843.jpg"; //temporary for testing
newTable.rows[newTable.bodyRowCount-1].cells[4].contents = "\r";
tmpPara = newTable.rows[newTable.bodyRowCount-1].cells[4].paragraphs.item(0);
tmpPara.justification = Justification.centerAlign;
tmpImg = tmpPara.place( PICBASE + tmpBild );
tmpImg.parent.visibleBounds = ["0mm","0mm","38.236mm","38.236mm"];
tmpImg.parent.geometricBounds = ["0mm","0mm","38.236mm","38.236mm"];
tmpImg.fit( FitOptions.proportionally );
tmpImg.parent.fit( FitOptions.frameToContent );
tmpImg.parent.strokeColor = "Paper";
tmpImg.parent.strokeAlignment = StrokeAlignment.centerAlignment;
tmpImg.parent.strokeWeight = "5pt";
tmpImg.parent.strokeType = app.strokeStyles.item("Thick - Thin");
Can anybody help convert this so it works for InDesign CS4? In the meantime, I will try to take care of the rest of the script.
Btw, I have/had a scripting
b reference
in PDF format for InDesign CS2, is there anywhere that I can download that for CS4, I know it was very helpful back then.

What I ended up doing was create roughly enough pages in the document and create linked text frames on all pages, thus letting the table created in the first text frame flow as long as the document has enough pages. In the end processing, I then remove all the pages but the first one, effectively getting one page with one text frame containing all table contents.
This was the only way I could find to get around this problem. No matter what I did, placing content into a table cell that was overflowing a text frame just didn't work.
Here's the part where I create the pages (variable myMaxPages contains your estimated maximum number of pages). Please note in app.documents.add() that it is set to false to NOT open a window (speeds it up very slightly if you have a huge number of pages). You can remove the false and the myDocument.windows.add() statement if you don't want this or for debug purposes. The formatting mechanism on these forums seem broken, but the following code should be ok/readable once properly formatted.
>myDocument = app.documents.add( false );
with(myDocument) {
for( i = 0; i < myMaxPages; i++ ) {
myPage = pages.item(i);
with(myPage) {
if( i > 0 ) { myPrevFrame = myTextFrame; }
myTextFrame = textFrames.add();
with( myTextFrame ) {
if( i == 0 ) {
myTable = tables.add();
with( myTable ) {
bodyRowCount = 1;
columnCount = 5;
} else {
if( i > 0 ) { previousTextFrame = myPrevFrame; }
if( i < myMaxPages - 1 ) {
pages.add();
myDocument.windows.add();
While fiddling with it, I also updated my image placement code a bit:
> var myCell = myTable.rows[myTable.bodyRowCount-1].cells[4];
myCell.contents = "\r";
myCell.paragraphs.item(0).justification = Justification.centerAlign;
var myRect = myCell.insertionPoints[0].textFrames.add();
myRect.contentType = ContentType.unassigned;
myRect.visibleBounds = ["0mm","0mm","38.236mm","38.236mm"];
myRect.geometricBounds = ["0mm","0mm","38.236mm","38.236mm"];
var myFile = File(PICBASE + tmpBild);
if( myFile.exists ) {
var myImage = myRect.place( myFile );
myRect.fit( FitOptions.proportionally );
myRect.fit( FitOptions.frameToContent );
Maybe this helps someone, maybe it doesn't. Can't say that I'm happy with the behaviour of getting errors and being unable to place content in table cells that is overflowing out of a text frame, but I needed to solve it, and this is how I did it.
Of course, if anyone else has a better solution to placing images into table cells that may be in the overflowing part of a text frame, go ahead and share with the rest of us, please.

Scripts and smartforms

what are the advantages of script over smartforms???

Hi harshu,
Advantage of scripts over smartforms is ,
labels can be created in scripts but not in forms
and scripts are client dependent where forms are not..
in detail:
SAPscript technology is based on a mainframe product from the 1980s, while Smart Forms have only been around since (roughly) 2001. With that sort of time gap, there are bound to be significant differences between the two tools. As you have noted correctly, client dependence is a fundamental one.
Although SAPscript has had some incremental improvements over time, its forms have always been -- under the hood -- relatively passive objects, with minimal embedded logic. These forms were designed to be driven and controlled by ABAP programs, much in the way ABAP programs read in database tables to produce reports; if you ever download a SAPscript form (e.g., via utility program RSTXSCRP), and look at the portable text file it produces you'll see what I mean. Many text objects (e.g., invoice header texts) are bound directly to documents which are client-dependent, so it makes sense for these text objects to also be client-dependent. From a complexity standpoint, SAPscript forms are close enough to these text objects where I can see how it made sense at the time to make them client-dependent too.
Conversely, a Smart Form is significantly more robust and complex. For instance, it can contain program nodes and nested tables with patterns. When a Smart Form is compiled, it generates an ABAP function module and these are always client-independent.
pls go through the link for more info..
