Hi,
You need to set the NLS_LANG variable according to your required language and use the forms.

  • Is there a way to create forms where certain fields would become required only if there was a certain choice made in a dropdown box in another field?

    Is there a way to create forms where certain fields would become required only if there was a certain choice made in a dropdown box in another field?

    Yes but you will have to create some custom JavaScript to do this.
    Also you should be aware that the "Required" property is only processed when the form is submitted to a scripted web page or "mailto:" process.

    Hi,
    Firstly check the system language package with t-code SMLT, whether the Chinese language package was imported correctly? If no, import the package;
    Log on with language ZH, then maintain the text in Chinese, save it.
    That will be okay!
    Good luck

    Hi
    See the attached 2 OSS notes for your problem
    OSSNote:960341
    Symptom
    In some device types (e.g HPLJ4, HPLJ5) you experience non-uniform character spacing in the PDF document after the PDF conversion of SAPscript or Smart Forms documents, using HELVE or TIMES fonts. You want to know the reason.
    Other terms
    CONVERT_OTF, SAPscript, Smart Forms
    Reason and Prerequisites
    The problem is not due to an error in the PDF converter but due to the fact, that the printer font, underlying the device type (e.g. Univers or CG Times in PCL-5 device types), is not available for the PDF converter and is either not available in Adobe Reader. The PDF converter has to try to simulate the layout of the printer font by means of a font which is predefined in Adobe Reader. This is done by assigning the letter widths of the printer font to the font used in Adobe Reader.
    The PDF file contains a table with letter widths, used by Adobe Reader in the output of text, for each used printer font (except PostScript fonts).
    Example:
    %Charwidth values from HP4300 HELVE 060 normal
    /Widths
    [ 278 333 500 633 633 1000 758 333 333 333 633...
    Adobe reader converts this width table, by modifying the space between each character, so that the specified letter width (= space between the current and the next letter) is kept.
    This 'Simulation' of printer fonts results in the sometimes visible irregular spaces in PDF.
    The PDF converter always uses the Helvetica Adobe PostScript font for the display of HELVE and the Times Roman Adobe PostScript font for the display of TIMES. However, for these Adobe PostScript fonts, Adobe Reader often uses a Windows TrueType font, which differs slightly from the original PostScript font.
    Solution
    Workaround: Use the POST2 PostScript device type or the PDF1 PDF device type for the PDF conversion of documents in the Latin-1 character set. They both use the Adobe PostScript fonts Helvetica or Times Roman for the HELVE/TIMES printer fonts.

    Symptom
    Documents printed via SAPscript or SmartForms do not print with correct special characters, e.g. ### prints instead of Japanese or Russian characters. What to do?
    Other terms
    SAPscript, SmartForms, printing, device types, OTF
    Reason and Prerequisites
    Help required to choose proper fonts in a SAPscript or SmartForm
    Solution
    When using SAPscript or SmartForms to print (or email or fax) a form from a business application, many factors influence the outcome of the actual text within the form. All these factors must be checked in order to ensure a correct printout:
    1) The language version of the form used to produce the printout.
    Example: If you want to print a French invoice, you need to have a FR version of your SAPscript or SmartForms invoice form RVINVOICE01. And the application program must specify the corresponding language key (FR) when calling the SAPscript or SmartForms API.
    2) The font selections specified in the form (possibly also in a SAPscript style or SmartStyle used in a form).
    Example: In a SAPscript form or a SmartStyle you need to specify HELVE if you want to print German text in Helvetica (or similar) font. If you want to print Japanese text, HELVE is not a valid choice but you need to specify a Japanese font like JPMINCHO in your Japanese form.
    3) The output character set of the device type
    Every printer in transaction SPAD has a "device type" assigned. Device types used by the spooler for printing support only one single specific output character set. All text from the form has to be converted (using SAP's built-in character conversion mechanism) to this output character set.
    A character set can typically support either a single language (e.g. Shift-JIS which supports only Japanese) or a set of languages (e.g. ISO 8859-1, which supports Western-European languages). It is possible that a given language (such as German) can be supported by several output character sets, e.g. you may use either ISO 8895-1 (Latin-1) or ISO 8859-2 (Latin-2) to represent German text. This is so because both character sets contain the special characters used in German.
    Example: HPLJ4000 is a HP LaserJet device type supporting the ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) character set. ISO 8859-1 can be used to represent e.g. Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Swedish but NOT Russian or Japanese.
    As a consequence, it is ok to use HPLJ4000 to print English, German French etc. but not for Japanese or Russian.
    4) The set of available printer fonts for a given device type
    When formatting a document, SAPscript and SmartForms perform an automatic mapping of the font definitions in the form (e.g. "HELVE 14 point bold") and the available printer fonts of the device type. A replacement printer font is chosen, should the specified font selection not be available in the device type. Now this replacement can be problematic if a language-specific font, such as Chinese CNSONG, is specified in a form and it gets replaced by a font which does not support this language, e.g. COURIER.
    To solve this problem, font families in SE73 have language attribute assigned, e.g. some fonts are characterized as being suitable only for certain languages. And when a replacement has to be chosen because the original font from the form is not available in the device type, a replacement font is chosen which has the same language attributes.
    If no fonts for the language in question exist in the device type, the resulting font will not be able to print the special characters and you will see "wrong" output characters in the printout.
    Note on SAPscript/SmartForms Print Preview:
    The OTF Print Preview available in Windows GUI (e.g. from transaction SP01) will sometimes not show the "wrong" characters which appear on the final printout. Here is the reason: since the Print Preview runs in Windows environment, it will use Windows fonts to represent the actual printer fonts. A Windows font typically has more available characters (i.e. covers more character sets) than are actually available in a printer's resident font.
    A typical example where the Print Preview will differ from the printout is here: if you have a Chinese PCL5 printer such as CNHPLJ4 and use the Western Latin font COURIER in your document, the print preview will show you Chinese characters if you (by accident) tried to format Chinese characters in COURIER font. This is because Windows will automatically choose a font that can output Chinese characters (which is actually not Courier). But when you print the job on an actual PCL5 printer with resident Western and Chinese fonts, the Courier font will not print any Chinese characters but Western special characters instead, because the printer's resident Courier font does not include Chinese characters.
    Rule of thumb: all Asian device types (e.g. CNHPLJ4, JPHPLJ4, JPPOST, KPHPLJ4) support not only Asian fonts but also COURIER, HELVE and TIMES fonts. But these Latin fonts can only be used to print English text, not Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters.

    Verify your output by examining the OTF data
    When analysing printing problems of this type, be sure to check the OTF data which gets produced by SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF or "Output Text Format" is the intermediate page-description format generated from SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF will contain the final printer font names and character set/language identifiers which help to solve the problem. OTF will even name the form and the language of the form used to create the output.
    The easiest way to do this is to create a spool request from your application, run transaction SP01, use menu
    Goto->Display Requests->Settings
    and choose
    Display Mode: Raw
    Now display your spool request. If this is a SAPscript or SmartForms spool request, you will see OTF data. Each line represents one OTF command, every command starts with a 2-character cmd identifier and possibly some cmd parameters follow.
    Here is an excerpt from a sample OTF file where we highlight the most interesting commands:
    //XHPLJ8000 0700 00000000001
    IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
    IN05%PAGE1
    OPDINA4 P 144 240 1683811906000010000100001
    IN06%WINDOW2

    SW00067
    CT00000000
    ST0453037Dieses SF hat Stil ALEXTEST_ZEBRA mit
    The 1st line with the // (Control) command reveals the device type usedto print: HPLJ8000
    //XHPLJ8000 0700 00000000001
    The 2nd line (IN = Info command) shows the name and (internal 1-char)language key of the form:
    IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
    In this case it is the English (E = EN) SmartForm ALEXTEST_ZEBRA
    The OP-line (OP = Open Page) gives the page format used in the form, it is DINA4 Portrait orientation:
    OPDINA4 P 144 240 1683811906000010000100001
    The CP (CodePage) cmd shows the SAP system codepage used to code the text and the active language. In our case it is codepage 1100 and language E = EN = English.
    CP11000000E
    Finally, the FC-cmd (Font Call) lists a printer font selected within SmartForms. Please note that every SmartForm has a designated default SmartStyle under "Form Attributes->Output Options". In addition, every text node can have a SmartStyle attached (which will override the definitions from the default style for the text). In our case the resulting printer font that was selected is HELVE 12.0 pt bold-off, italic-off.

  • Can not change from French Keyboard settings to another language

    Just installed a user account (french) and for some odd reason every time i change the keyboard input to another language it still switches back or simply keeps on using the french input, even if i totally de-select it from the input list and leave only the language i want to use.
    i ran disk utilities to fix permissions, also fixed keychain permissions as well; still the same.
    can anyone please advise on what i should do about this to get it working right?

    ok i finally got rid of france and the french curse here
    Your right to remove the prefs folder,
    1-i moved it to the desktop, and noticed when i re-logged in what was in the pref folder,
    2-then narrowed it down to the files that where again created automatically in the prefs folder for the keyboard input after i selected another country flag .
    3- i then drag and dropped all the files from the previous prefs folder that had the com.apple etc, and i chose to replace what i refered, like for example my DOC prefs, and the rest i did not replace.
    everything is now back, this user had so many prefs since OS9 !, wierdo.

  • How to override the create method invoked by a create form?

    Hello everyone, I'm using ADF Faces and have the next question:
    How can I override the create method which is invoked by a create form to preset an attribute in the new row (the preset value is not fixed, I have to send it to the method as a parameter as it is obtained using an EL expression)?
    In the ADF guide I read how to override a declarative method (Section 17.5.1 How to override a declarative method), but this explains how to do it with a method that is called by a button. I don't know how to do the same with a method which is called automatically when the page is loaded.
    I also tried overriding the view object's createRow() method to receive a parameter with the preset values but it didn't work, I believe that was because the declarative create method is not the same as the view object's createRow. This caused the form to display another row from the viewobject and not the newly created one (I also set the new row into STATUS_INITIALIZED after setting the attribute).
    Well, I hope my problem is clear enough for somebody to help me.
    Thank you!

    Hello,
    I'm not sure you can do it with standard generated Create Form.
    In your view object you'll need to create your own create method with parameters, publish it to client interface and invoke instead of standard generated create action in page definition.

  • Passing a parameter from one form to another

    Hi
    I'm trying to pass a parameter from one form to another. I've read lots of postings about this, and I have succeeded in calling the second form using code behind one of the existing Portal buttons (insert). Here is the code:
    DECLARE
    pro_id NUMBER;
    pro_link VARCHAR2(1200);
    BEGIN
    pro_id := p_session.get_value_as_number(
    p_block_name => 'DEFAULT',
    p_attribute_name => 'A_PRO_ID');
    pro_link := portal30.wwv_user_utilities.get_url(
    'CINTRA_APP.PRO_LINK_1',
    'WKG_PRO_ID',pro_id,
    '_WKG_PRO_ID_cond','=');
    PORTAL30.wwa_app_module.set_target(pro_link,'CALL');
    END;
    Trouble is, the parameter does not get passed. This could be because:
    the field I'm trying to populate is based on an LOV ?
    the target form is not set up to receive parameters? (I read this somewhere, but how do you do it?)
    Thanks

  • Query about Calling One Form from Another using Personalization

    Hi All,
    I have created a Custom form using TEMPLATE.fmb and created functions in Apps and assigned to Responsibility etc and it all works OK.
    Now, I need to call this Custom form from another seeded(PO form) Via Tools -> Menu.
    using Forms personalization I can get the Menu Entry and Actions to execute the Form successfully from the PO Form.
    BUT, I need it to automatically query records in my CUSTOM form based on my current PO_HEADER_ID value on my PO Form.
    How can I do it ?
    Do I need to modify my Block and add some parameters and then pass a value via Personalization ?
    Please help !

    Hi Shankar,
    Please refer my article on metalink
    Zoom to AR Transactions and AR Receipts Form from Collections Form using Forms Personalization - Doc ID: 430643.1
    This article explains how to open the AR transactions form from another form. When it opens the form it automatically queries for the Invoice number of the calling form. You should be able to use this logic for your requirement.
    Hope this helps.

  • Calling infobus form from another.

    Hi
    Here is a brief description of the problem.
    A simple data form is created using JDeveloper2.0's wizard. It is an Infobus based dataframe,which has a simple gridcontrol fetching data from the dept table. This form is in the pacakge,
    package1.
    Another form is made with a master detail relationship between dept and employee table, in the package, package2.
    Now a button control is added on the first form( which is in package1) and the following code is added to the actionperformed event.
    void buttonControl1_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    Frame f = new package2.Frame1();
    f.show();
    Essentially, it calls the form in package2 when the button is pressed. Once this action is performed, the login dialog box of the form in package2 appears. After which it throws the following error and shows a blank form.
    DAC-405: SessionInfo: Application module creation failed; className: ConnectionTrade
    JBO-00200: A Generic exception occurred during loading Customizations.
    null
    If I add a button in the second form, (ie. the one in pacage2 having a master detail relationship) and call dept form (in package1) from here, it works.
    We are stuck with this problem, and unable to proceed with deploying the application. As each form need to be called and invoked from a menu.
    Thanks in advance.
    Ravi

    Hi,
    You can do like this :
    mainApplication(Menu)
    +------------ Frame1
    |
    +------------ Frame2
    In MainApp you call your frame, and remove from code the
    windowListener of the frame. Replace the dispose(); in frame
    methods fileExit(ActionEvent e) & processWindowEvent(WindowEvent
    e), by try { finalize(); } catch (java.lang.Throwable ex) {
    ex.getMessage(); }
    It works great.

    This works fine for the Purchasing form and allows me to zoom to the Supplier form.
    But in my case, I want to zoom from the Supplier Form to my CUSTOM form. I replicated the exact steps as per the link.
    However, it does NOT work as expected. It gets up to the ENTER QUERY mode in my CUSTOM form and remains in Enter Query mode. If I manually then Press key F11 to execute the query it brings back all records.
    Do I need to do anything special in my CUSTOM form to make it behave in a similiar way to the Supplier Form ?

  • Best practice in working with Adobe forms in multiple languages

    We have to provide access to some Adobe Interactive Forms in both English and French, some of them from Web Dynpro application(s), some of them as callable objects from Guided Procedures.
    1- We know for sure that we can have two copies of each form, one in English and one in French but that implies duplicating the FormCalc and Javascript code behind. 
    2- Another way if to modify in javascript all labels, captions using some javascript i.e. If lang = "E" then "My label" else "Mon étiquette" . It would work but it is not very efficient.
    Is someone here has experience with this type of situation and would be willing to share his experience with me?
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Benoit,
    For Adobe Forms in multiple language you can use include text solution also . Within this solution you need to add a language parameter in your interface and then retrieve the include text in the language value ( not current language ) . Personnaly i used a lot this solution with Smartforms text .
    Also i used dictionnary text for text linked with data dictionnary element . For this there is standard function module in SAP .
    Anothers way is in the SFP editor you can translate your form as in SAPSCRIPT .
    Hope this help you
    Regard.
    PS : if necessary i can send you a sample form with smartform/Dictionnary text solution.

  • Interactive form in Japanese language - baseline shift problem

    Dear All,
    I have a big problem with interactive forms. I developed a PO form for a Japanese company in English. When I transate it and use Kanji characters in the translation the baseline of these characters is about one line below where they should be. I use Arial fonts at the form development and the ADS changes it to MS Mincho or MSP Gothic. These two character set was also installed to the ADS font directory. Is it possible to use one form for the English and Japanese version of the form or I have to develop another form to the Japanese form and set the baseline of all the characters? Does anybody have experience in this issue? Has anybody developed PDF-based form in Japanese language?

    In this form while saving the contact it shows the pop up as "both first name and last name or atlease one should be filled for create contact" here my requirement is to make another 2 more fields phone and email as mandatory
    for that i have done forms personalization and done validation for those 2 fields in Custom.pll.
    Here whats happening is, as those two fields are required ,with out entering date to those fileds and given to first name only then clicking on the save button contact is creating but,when ever the fields in the form are mandatory(required) meens those should be filled other wise it will not allows us to save....why it is happening like this way???
    i tried using raise form trigger failure also in the custom.pll but no use.
    please help me to solve this issue.
    Thanks,
    Geetha.

    hi,
    Why can't u go for a PL/SQL procedure.
    that would more easy.
    And now , are using the query returned values for some display . In the sense . are you going to display these values in a web page or going write these values into a file.
    For both of the issues PL/SQL Procedure is a better option.
    bye,

  • Translation of English content into another language in Life an work events

    Gurus,
       I am trying to setup life and work events for various countries. We have "before you start" HTML pages for all the different countries we are implementing the life and work events and each country has its own language. Now, my question is to find out if the content should be manually coded in each country's native language or is there any translation mechanism that can be used within the life and work events of the ESS to translate the English content to another language?
    I also noticed "Add translated resource" inside the "Create Content Package object". I dont know, if this can serve my purpose. Could anybody please suggest how the translation of content can be achieved?
    Thanks,
    Maria Kutty Somori.....

    No you will have to manually create iViews for new countries....
    Maria...it works like this..
    1.. First to select which country structure suits most your requirement...
    2... You reuse that country structure and create services specific for your country...
    e.g. You reused structure of US Address Data to create a service for Polland Address Data....
    3... Now if required you can create an application specific to your needs in NWDI specific to your service...(If enhancements are required)
    4... Create an iview in PCD....for this you can copy the existing iview for the country that you reused in step 1...
    i.e. Copy US address data service and paste it with name Poland address data....Update its "application name" property with new web dynpro application name you defined in step 3...
    Wotever above is written is not specific to LWE....
    For LWE you need to go through an additional step :
