Hi,
Can any one tell me How to do the Step by step debugging? In ABAP application we are doing through /h command.Like this any command is there in BSP page for debugging? And where actually we need to place the break point means in Controller or in View?
Thanks in advance,

Is it possible to debug step by step for share point designer workflow in share point 2010

Hi all,<o:p></o:p>
I have created a reminder date work flow but it is not working .In this work flow it need to be check first its status if its status is suspend then only workflow can run .I am
attaching below workflow logic check if any modifications needed please suggest me . And I have doubt is it possible to check step by step debugging like in coding we are using break point in this way any break point is available for designer workflows
? If break point is available please guide me how to get and use those<o:p></o:p>
Thanking you,<o:p></o:p>
ArunDarly
<o:p>Workflow logic given below</o:p>

You can't step through a SharePoint Designer Workflow. The normal workaround is to Log messages to the History list with the values you want to look at where you would normally put breakpoints. Then run the workflow and examine the history
list to see how the values changed as you went through your workflow.

Step by step debugging pl/sql procedure

How can we debug a pl/sql procedure step by step

We know about this, for a workaround you can try editing jdev-Darwin.conf and adding a line like the following:
# Add our debug classes to the bootclasspath
AddVMOption -Xbootclasspath/a:../../rdbms/jlib/ojdi.jar
In short, ojdi.jar needs to be on the bootclasspath on the mac. I'm not sure how well this will work, but it's one of the changes we're planning for our 10.1.2 release of JDeveloper

Error while step-by-step debugging

Hello,
This problem happens to me quite often, but not everytime.
On Windows XP, SP2, I develop an application which is deployed onto a JBoss 4 server through IDEA IntelliJ 7.
I launch my server through IntelliJ too, using the jrockit-R27.4.0 - 1.6.0 VM.
The application is a web based application using Wicket.
When I attempt to do step-by-step debugging, quite often, the stepping is very very slow. Then, after usually 2 steps, I receive this message:
ERROR: transport error 202: connect failed: Connection refused
ERROR: JDWP Transport dt_socket failed to initialize, TRANSPORT_INIT(510)
JDWP exit error AGENT_ERROR_TRANSPORT_INIT(197): No transports initialized [../../../src/share/back/debugInit.c:690]
The application has requested the JVM to exit with an fatal error from JNI. Error message:
JDWP No transports initialized, jvmtiError=AGENT_ERROR_TRANSPORT_INIT(197)After which, I cannot use this server anymore, I have to kill it and restart it (which annoys me, as I chose JRockit to avoid the PermGen errors that the Sun VM had when redeploying 2 or 3 times the application on the JBoss server)
Any idea what this is due to? Or how I could solve it?

I'll try to reproduce the issue with a small java app instead of JBoss.
From the environment point of view:
IntelliJ 7.0.2 (build 7549)
Compiler: Sun Javac for JDK1.5.0.12
OS: Win XP, SP 2
IJ connects to the VM using socket (but errors also happened with Shared Memory connection, although the error message was different)
cmd /c "C:\Program Files\jboss-4.2.1.GA\bin\run.bat" -c default

Step by step 4 smartforms

hi,
I need step by step guide for smartforms can any one provide that.
thanks in Advance

hi sagar ,
Even I struggled a lot in understanding smartforms...just last week i understood what smart forms are...
u can really understand by the name itself..yes it is a very smart form to present ur data....
STEPS :
1) basic transaction to create a smartform is 'SMARTFORMS' .
2) Enter a smartform name .
3)press create button .
4) instantly ur smart form - form bulider gets opened , where u can enter a short description about the smartform that u r going to create .
5) every form will have global settings.
6) these global settings consist of
          a) form attributes .
          b) form interface .
          c) global definitions .
7) form attributes is for general attributes about the form .
8) form interface is specially for declaring any parameter - where any user can enter some value to the parameter n get the corresponding output . the parameter can b an importing or exporting parameter also .
9) in global definitions u declare all the global data in gobal data option necessary for ur program eg: variables , internal tables , work areas .....
10) in types option u define all the structures necessary for the program ...
11) in initialization option u can write all ur select queries ...
12) every smart form consist of pages....
13) in every page u can create a page , a window , or a graphic...
14)in every window u can create another window , graphic , address , text , table ...
15) suppose u create a table for a particular window...
16) then each table will consist of header , main area and a footer ...
17) for header , main area and footer u can also create a table line
18) for every table line mention a line type...
19) a line type can b declared in
                    double click on table .
                           click on 'DETAILS' icon .
                                declare the line type
by mentioning the number of columns for the table with units.
20) use 'DATA' option for looping internal table to workarea also using WHERE condition along with SORTING option for ascending or decending the fields selected for the internal table .
21) use 'CALCULATIONS' option for making any grand total of any field from the internal table ...by mentioning operation as total , field name as say vbap-netpr , target field name as say total which is also declared in the global data , and time
as AFTER THE LOOP or BEFORE THE LOOP .
u can also u left frames, right frames....for ur table ...
22) activate at each step and clear the errors...
23) press f8 for processing the smartform ..
automatically a function module name comes and excute the module
enetr if u have any importing parameter as form interface ..
24) give LP01 for output device and give print preveiw first
25) execute...u can get as desired output as u want..
i hope these steps will help u a lot in working and understanding smartforms...
otherwise always refer to www.sdn.sap.com website....
please reward me points if u understand my steps ....
Ginni .

Introduction to SAP SmartForms
What is SAP Smart 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.
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
What Transaction to start SAP Smart Forms?
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.
Advantages of SAP Smart Forms
SAP Smart Forms have the following advantages:
1. The adaption 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)
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
SMARTFORMS
Declare your table type in :-
Global Settings -> Form Interface
Global Definintions -> Global Data
Main Window -> Table -> DATA
Written by : SAP Hints and Tips on Configuration and ABAP/4 Programming
                    http://sapr3.tripod.com

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.
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.
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.
FAQ on Migrating SAPscript to SmartForms
Is it possible to migrate a SAPscript form to a Smart Form?
Smart Forms provides a migration tool for this purpose which migrates layout and texts of a SAPscript form to a Smart Form. It does not
migrate SAPscript form logic of the print program. Using Smart Forms, this logic is described by the tree structure of the Form Builder. The
effort involved in migrating it depends on the complexity of the print program.
Which Basis Release do I need to use SAP Smart Forms?
SAP Smart Forms is available as of R/3 Basis Release 4.6C.
I have heard that Smart Forms replaces SAPscript. What does "replace" mean?
It does not mean that SAPscript is removed from the Basis shipment. Even as of Basis Release 4.6C, SAPscript remains part of the SAP
standard and there are no plans to remove it. Since Smart Forms is currently, and will continue to be, the tool for form maintenance for
mySAP.com solutions, our further development efforts will focus on Smart Forms, not on SAPscript.
Do we have to migrate all SAPscript forms to Smart Forms?
There is no point in migrating all SAPscript forms already in use. Since SAPscript can still be used and will be available in the future, there is
no need to. If you plan to migrate a SAPscript form, it is recommended that you check whether benefit is worth the effort involved.
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.
You could also write a small batch program calling transaction SMARTFORMS and running the migration tool.
SmartForms System Fields
Within a form you can use the field string SFSY with its system fields. During form processing the system replaces these fields with the
corresponding values. The field values come from the SAP System or are results of the processing.
System fields of Smart Forms
&SFSY-DATE&
Displays the date. You determine the display format in the user master record.
&SFSY-TIME&
Displays the time of day in the form HH:MM:SS.
&SFSY-PAGE&
Inserts the number of the current print page into the text. You determine the format of the page number (for example, Arabic, numeric) in
the page node.
&SFSY-FORMPAGES&
Displays the total number of pages for the currently processed form. This allows you to include texts such as'Page x of y' into your output.
&SFSY-JOBPAGES&
Contains the total page number of all forms in the currently processed print request.
&SFSY-WINDOWNAME&
Contains the name of the current window (string in the Window field)
&SFSY-PAGENAME&
Contains the name of the current page (string in the Page field)
&SFSY-PAGEBREAK&
Is set to 'X' after a page break (either automatic [Page 7] or command-controlled [Page 46])
&SFSY-MAINEND&
Is set as soon as processing of the main window on the current page ends
&SFSY-EXCEPTION&
Contains the name of the raised exception. You must trigger your own exceptions, which you defined in the form interface, using the
user_exception macro (syntax: user_exception <exception name >).
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
Smart forms Frequently Asked Questions
Forcing a page break within table loop
Create a loop around the table. Put a Command node before the table in the loop that forces a NEWPAGE on whatever condition you want.
Then only loop through a subset of the internal table (based on the conditions in the Command node) of the elements in the Table node.
Font style and Font size
Goto Transaction SMARTSTYLES.
There you can create Paragraph formats etc just like in sapscript.
Then in your window under OUTPUT OPTIONS you include this SMARTSTYLE and use the Paragraph and character formats.
Line in Smartform
Either you can use a window that takes up the width of your page and only has a height of 1 mm.
Then you put a frame around it (in window output options).
Thus you have drawn a box but it looks like a line.
Or you can just draw "__" accross the page and play with the fonts so that it joins each UNDER_SCORE.
Difference between 'forminterface' and 'global definitions' in global settings of smart forms
The Difference is as follows.
To put it very simply:
Form Interface is where you declare what must be passed in and out of the smartform (in from the print program to the smartform and out
from the smartform to the print program).
Global defs. is where you declare data to be used within the smartform on a global scope.
ie: anything you declare here can be used in any other node in the form.
Smartforms function module name
Once you have activated the smartform, go to the environment -> function module name. There you can get the name of funtion module
name.
The key thing is the program that calls it. for instance, the invoice SMARTFORM LB_BIL_INVOICE is ran by the program RLB_INVOICE.
This program uses another FM to determine the name of the FM to use itself. The key thing is that when it calls this FM (using a variable to
store the actual name), that the parameters match the paramters in your smartform.
Another thing to note is that the FM name will change wherever the SF is transported to.
So you need to use the FM to determine the name of the SF.
Here is the code that can be use to determine the internal name of the function module:
Code:
if sf_label(1) <> '/'.    " need to resolve by name
    move sf_label to externalname.
    call function 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
         exporting
              formname           = externalname
         importing
              fm_name            = internalname
         exceptions
              no_form            = 1
              no_function_module = 2
              others             = 3.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
      message 'e427'.
    endif.
    move internalname to sf_label.
endif.
It checks to see if the sf_label starts with a '/', which is how the internal names start. if it does, the name has already been converted. If
not, it calls the FM and converts the name.
You would then CALL FUNCTION sf_label.
Smartforms FAQ Part Two
Smartforms output difference
Problem with Smartforms: in a certain form for two differently configured printers, there seem to be a difference in the output of characters
per inch (the distance between characters which gives a layout problem - text in two lines instead of one.
It happens when the two printers having different Printer Controls' if you go to SPAD Menu (Spool Administrator Menu) you can see the
difference in the Printer Control and if you make the Printer control setting for both the printers as same. then it will be ok. and also u have
to check what is the device type used for both the output devices.
SmartForms Output to PDF
There is a way to download smartform in PDF format.
Please do the following:
1. Print the smartform to the spool.
2. Note the spool number.
3. Download a PDF file (Acrobat Reader) version of the spool by running Program RSTXPDFT4 and entering the
noted spool number.
SmartForm Doublesided printing question
Your customer wants your PO SmartForm to be able to print "Terms and Conditinos" on the back side of each page. They don't want to
purchase pre-printed forms with the company's logo on the front and terms & conditions on the back. Now this presents an interesting
problem.
Has anyone else ever had a request like this? If for example there was a 3 page PO to be printed, they want 3 pieces of paper, the front
side of each to containe the PO information (page 1, 2, and 3) and the back side of each piece of paper to containg the static "Terms &
Conditions" information.
Anyone have a clue how to force this out?
Easy - page FRONT lists page CONTACTS as next page and CONTACTS lists FRONT as next page. Since CONTACTS does not contain a MAIN
window, it will print the contacts info and then continue on to FRONT for the rest of the main items. Additionally, set print mode on FRONT to
D (duplex) and set CONTACTS to 'blank' (for both resource name and print mode - this is the only way to get to the back of the page).
Transport Smart Forms
How does one transport SMARTFORM? SE01?
How do you make sure that both, the SMARTFORM & it's function module gets transported? Or does the FM with same name gets generated
automatically in the transported client?
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.
Smartforms: protect lines in main window.
How to protect lines in the main window from splitting between pages?
It was easy with SAPscript, but how to do it with SF's.   For 4.7 version if you are using tables, there are two options for protection against
line break:
- You can protect a line type against page break.
- You can protect several table lines against page break for output in the main area.
Protection against page break for line types
- Double-click on your table node and choose the Table tab page.
- Switch to the detail view by choosing the Details pushbutton.
- Set the Protection against page break checkbox in the table for the relevant line type. Table lines that use this line type are output on
one page.
Protection against page break for several table lines
- Expand the main area of your table node in the navigation tree.
- Insert a file node for the table lines to be protected in the main area.
- If you have already created table lines in the main area, you can put the lines that you want to protect again page break under the file
using Drag&Drop. Otherwise, create the table lines as subnodes of the file.
- Choose the Output Options tab page of the file node and set the Page Protection option.   All table lines that are in the file with the Page
Protection option set are output on one page.
In 4.6, Alternatively in a paragraph format use the Page protection attribute to determine whether or not to display a paragraph completely
on one page. Mark it if you want to avoid that a paragraph is split up by a page break. If on the current page (only in the main window)
there is not enough space left for the paragraph, the entire paragraph appears on the next page.
Details information about SAP Barcodes
A barcode solution consists of the following:
- a barcode printer
- a barcode reader
- a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the
logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP
support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as
the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format
language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most
important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on
the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.
The next part of the equation can be a bit tricky as you will need to get a printer to print that barcode font. Regular laser printers does not
normally print barcode fonts, only specialized industrial printers that is specifically designed to support that protocol and that uses
specialized label media and heat transfer (resin) ribbon to create the sharp image required for barcodes.
Not to fear though, there are two ways to get around this:
- You can have your IT department do some research -
most laser printers can accept a font cartridge/dimm chip (similar to computer memory), called a BarDIMM that will allow a laser printer to
support the printing of barcodes.
- Secondly, you can buy software that you can upload in your SAP pri

56.     Enter the Name and Description for the Inserted Text (e.x. Text = SUB_TOTAL_DISPLAY and Description = SUB_TOTAL_DISPLAY and populated the value for subtotal.
57.     After each purchase order, the Variable V_SUBTOTAL has to be refreshed, Inorder the clear the subtotal variable we have to insert Program Lines by right clicking the OI_DISPLAY ORDER ITEM DISPLAY.
58.     Enter Name and Description for the Program Lines (%CODE1 New program lines 1) Inserted (e.x. Program lines = CLR_VAR and Description = CLEAR SUBTOTAL VARIABLE. Input parameters = V_SUBTOTAL. Clear the variable as shown below:
59.     Now, we have to display the Grand Total (i.e. summation of all the subtotals). Insert Text under the PO_LOOP PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER LOOP by right clicking the same.
Text %TEXT1 New text1 gets inserted. Now enter the name and description for the same and also populated the value for grand total
Text = GRD_TOT_DISP, Description = GRAND TOTAL DISPLAY and Variable V_GRDTOTAL has been populated to display the grand total in the form.
60.     Inorder to display the Current Page Number and Total Number of pages in the form we need a separate window and to obtain the same right click the FIRST First Page and the insert window.
Window %WINDOW1 New window 1 get inserted under the first page.
61.     Enter the Window name and description (e.x. Window = PG_WIN and Description PAGE NUMBER WINDOW)
Set the window co-ordinates for page number window PG_WIN as given below:
62.     Inorder to display the page numbers we have to insert a Text by right clicking the PG_WIN PAGE NUMBER WINDOW.
Text %TEXT1 New text 1 gets inserted and now enter the text name and description.
Text = PG_DISP, Description = PAGE NUMBER DISPLAY and Page Number gets displayed from the Transparent Table SFSY.
63.     General Screen Shot of Entire Left Sub-tree:
64.     Form output:
65.     SOME MORE FURTHER MODIFICATIONS / ADDITIONAL OPTIONS IN THE ABOVE CREATED FORM:
Condition-1: Create second page and company logo should get printed only in the first page and not in the second page. Similarly, company address window should get printed only in the last page and not in other pages.
To create the second page right click the FIRST First Page in the left sub-tree.
66.     Another page gets inserted with name %PAGE1 New page 1.
67.     Enter Page name and description for the inserted new page (e.x. Page = SECOND and Description = Second Page) and set the next page as inserted second page and select the mode as increase counter as shown below:
68.     Now change the FIRST First Pages Next page as SECOND and change the mode as Initialize counter.
69.     Now copy the Main, Company Address, Page No windows from FIRST First Page to SECOND Second Page.
70.     Arrange all the windows under the Main window in both first and second page. Inorder to restrict the company logo to be printed only in the first page, go to the first page and double click the LOGO_WIN LOGO WINDOW and select the Conditions tab and Check the only on first page Check Box.
71.     Output showing the main window got printed only in the first page and not in the second page and so on .
First Page: With LOGO
Second Page: Without LOGO
72.     Inorder to restrict the Company address to be printed only in the last page and not in the remaining pages, double click the ADD_WIN ADDRESS WINDOW in the first page and Check the only after end of main window Check Box. Repeat the same process for the second page also.
73.     Output showing the address window got printed only in the last page and not in the first page and so on .
First Page: without company address
Last page (second page): with company address window
74.     Condition-2: Purchase orders whose value is more than 5000 only should get displayed / printed.
Inorder to achieve the same, right click the PO_LOOP PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER LOOP and select the Loop.
75.     %LOOP1 New loop 1 gets inserted
76.     Enter Loop name and description.
77.     Select the Data Tab Loop the Internal I_EKPO as shown below:
78.     Inorder to check the subtotal value for each purchase order (i.e. purchase order value should be more than 5000), Insert a program lines under the new loop inserted.
79.     %CODE1 New program lines 1 gets inserted
80.     Enter the name and description for Program lines. Before calculating the subtotal declare two variables one for total and another for subtotal in Global definitions. Calculate the Subtotal as shown below:
Input parameters: WA_EKPO-MENGE, WA_EKPO-NETPR, V_TOT; Output Parameters: V_VALUE.
81.     Now we calculated the subtotal for each purchase order. Inorder to restrict the display of purchase orders whose values are more than 5000, we need to insert Alternate and for the same right click the PO_LOOP PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER LOOP and from the menu path create  select the Alternate.
82.     %CONDITION1 New alternate 1 gets inserted.
83.     Enter Alternate name and description. Select the General attributes Tab and Enter the condition of subtotal > 5000 as shown:
84.     Now, move PO_NO_DISPLAY PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER DISPLAY, OI_HEAD ORDER ITEM HEADER, OI_DISPLAY ORDER ITEM DISPLAY, SUB_TOTAL_DISPLAY DISPLAY SUBTOTAL and CLR_VAR New program lines under the TRUE part.
85.     In the FALSE part (i.e. If subtotal value is less than 5000, then clear the variable), insert program lines and code as shown:
86.     Only those purchase order whose value is more than 5000 gets displayed First Page.
Only those purchase order whose value is more than 5000 gets displayed Second Page.
87.     Condition-3 Each Purchase Order should get printed in a new page. Logo should get printed in the first page along with the first purchase order and similarly, Grand total should get printed in the last page with the last purchase order.
88.     Inorder to achieve this, when the first successful purchase order whose value is more than 5000 is found then increase one counter variable by 1 (this is required because the New page command should not get triggered in the first page itself) and for the same we have to insert a Program lines under the TRUE part of CHK_COND SUBTOTAL CONDITION.
Before increasing the counter variable first declare the counter variable in the Global definitions part.
Output parameters: V_COUNTER.
89.     Inorder to avoid triggering New page command in the first page, we have to insert Command in the TRUE part of CHK_COND SUBTOTAL CONDITION by right clicking the same as shown below:
90.     %COMMAND1      New command 1 gets inserted.
91.     Enter name and description for the inserted Alternative. Select General attributes Tab and check whether for the counter variable is more than 1.
92.     If the counter variable is more than 1 means, we got the second successful purchase order whose value is more than 5000. Hence, we can trigger new page command here and for the same right click the TRUE part in NEW_PG NEW PAGE COMMAND as shown:
%COMMAND1 New command 1 gets inserted
93.     Enter the name and description for Command and select the General attributes Tab and Check the Go to new page and select the page as SECOND as shown below:
94.     The following is the output: First Page with company logo and without company address window, first purchase order whose value is more than 5000.
Second page: without company logo and with company address window for the last purchase order whose value is more than 5000.
95.     The new PROBLEM we faced when we create the smart form is page number. Total Page Number got displayed as * as shown:
96.     Inorder to solve the above problem Double Click the PG_DISP PAGE NUMBER DISPLAY and Click the Text Editor.
Upon clicking the text editor it will take you to the following screen:
Cut (Ctrl+X) the SFSY-FORMPAGES and delete the remaining things as shown.
Go to the menu path Insert  Symbols  New as shown
Which will result you in the following popup and fill the popup as shown.
97.     It will takes you to the following screen.
98.     Now replace &SFSY-FORMPAGES4(4CZ)& as &SFSY-FORMPAGES0(4CZ)&
99.     Press back and then check, activate and execute You can observe that the problem has resolved.
100.     Enjoy and try to create more smart forms..

Debug SRM & Smartform

Hi
I am using web based SRM.From here i am using an Contract that has to output a smartform.There is something wrong with my smartform and i would like to debug it.Could you please tell me how to do that?
thanks a lot.

Hi,
To debug a smartform follow steps:-
1. Goto transaction SMARTFORMS.
2. Give your smartform name and press F8.
3. You will be taken to a screen which shows a Function Module name.
4. Press display for that FM.
5. At the bottom of the code, there is a sub-routine PERFORM %GLOBAL_INIT.
6. Goto this sub-routine and check for the code in smartform programs lines.
7. Put a debug point.
8. Now display the smartform output for the contract using the t-code from R/3 .
You can now debug the code.
Hope this helps you.
Regards,
Tarun

Debug a smartform

Hi, Can anyone tell me the way to debug a smartform and to upload a logo into
SAP.

1) One way to debug smartform is to debug the Function Module of that smartforms.
If you want to debug particular smartform node that the solution would be,
insert a "Program Line" just above the node you want to debug and this program line write a normal abap breakpoint.
So whenever you call the smartforms, it will stop at this breakpoint and you can debug onwards.
2) SFTRACE can be used for debugging SMARTFORMS.
1)goto tcode SFTRACE --> click "trace on"
2) Get the function module name and set break points in function module name.
Read More here.

or
Try with this:
In the form Utilities->debugger / RSTXDBUG FM for debugging
or
You can set break "sy-uname" within your smart form code sections and this will take you to the code sections in the function module of the smart form when the break point is reached. This way by timing the break points you can look at the code of the various nodes of your smart form.
BREAK-POINT can be used only in own program lines in smartform - not very helpful because it always stops until removed and generated again.
Or you can use transaction SMARTFORM_TRACE.
1. use transaction SMARTFORM_TRACE
2. in the SMARTFORMS, use utilities to show the function name. You can analyze this function in SE37 and set dynamic breakpoints as required. Lok at the SMARTFORM_TRACE to decide where to set break points.
or
SMARTFORMS DEBUGGING
For smartforms debugging you can do this.
1. Execute the smartform (execute button in SMARTFORMS transaction)
2. Take the generated function module and display it in SE80.
3.Find the smartforms Elements (text elements, windows, code lines, loops) in this and set Soft break points.
Correct name is SMARTFORM_TRACE. You have lots of options for adequate analysis
Tcode - SFTRACE
Re: How to Debug a Smartform
Debug of smartform and sapscript.
Debugging SmartForms
Debugging of a subroutine pool.
These are the steps to be followed for uploading graphics in R/3 system
1. First save the file as BMP 2. Open the BMP file in IMaging (Goto -> Programs -> Accessories -> Imaging) and make it Zoom as 100% and save as .TIFF 3. Open SE38 and execute program RSTXLDMC 4. Give your TIFF file path name 5. Select Bcol (for Color) 6. TEXT ID will be ZHEX-MACRO-. 7. Inplace of * write your own logo name (ZCOMPANYLOGO) 8. Execute the program 9. Now Goto SE71 create your ZFORM 10. Create logo window 11. Goto text element of logo window
The steps for including graphical elements in the layout set are as follows
The graphical element (like company logo) should be in valid graphic file format like .bmp or .jpg
Use appropriate software to convert the above file into a .TIFF file
Use report RSTXLDMC to upload this file as a text module in SAP
Execute the above program from the ABAP /4 editor
Enter the location of the .TIFF file on the PC
Specify BMON or BCOL as the raster image type
The SAP system suggests a name for the file ( like ZHEX-MARCO-* ). The * indicates the type of file. For e.g. if the file contains a logo then the name can be ZHEX-MACRO-LOGO
The ID should be ST and give the logon language
Running the program will convert this .TIFF file into a text element
Incorporate this converted logo in the appropriate window under the appropriate text element by giving
INCLUDE ZHEX-MACRO-LOGO OBJECT TEXT ID ST in the first line
