Open iProcurement Smart form from a Third Party System

Hi,
I have a requirement to open the iProcurement smart form from a third party system. We have the Single Sign on functionality so the user can log into the oracle apps without entering the credentials.
Please share if someone has prior knowledge on that.
Thanks & Regards,
Munish Mittal

If the ICX_SESSION is already available then the form(I am assuming you are refering to a web based form here) should open directly if the function should be accessible to the user logged in. When you say your custom application is included in Oracle apps are you launching these pages from the Ebiz home page through menus and functions ?

Triggering a smart form from User exit

Hi Gurus,
I need to trigger a smart form from a user exit.
The tcode name is COR1.there is a exit for this tocde.
This exit should be used to trigger the smart form.
User exit to be executed upon saving the Process order number.
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: vinay raj on Apr 13, 2009 9:38 AM

Hi,
You can write a Custom program i.e. the driver program for your smart form.
And submit that program in the exit. i.e. use the submit statement to run that program.
I hope this might help you.

Copy Smart Forms from 4.6 to ERP

Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to transport/copy some Smart Forms from one system (4.6c) to another system (ERP).
I thought of exporting the data from our 4.6 system, using the transport manager, and import it into the ERP system.
Not tested so far and just wanted to get some statements or hints on how to handle this.

Hi,
You will not be able to download smartform in 4.6c to a local file since there is no facility provided for this 4.6c version.
This kind of facility is only available from 4.7 version only.
So U cannot download the smartform to a local file.
Reward me if it is helpful answer...
Cheers,
Sampath.

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.

Hi Satyam,
You can use the existing SAP GRT framework for developing the app.
Its easy and provides more features.

Dynamic Changes in Smart Form ( From External Source )

Dear Sap Folks ,
Whether the SF layout attributes can be changed from the external loading program dynamically .
Please give your views on this topic.
Thanks in advance .
Best Regards,
Raj

Hi Raja,
As far as my understanding goes this cannot be achieved by an external program but what you can do is that you can some flags that you can set in the print program and when you pass them to the smart form function module(the function module generated by the smartform) you can decide whether certain windows need to be displayed or not by giving a condition to them. You can have two windows with diferrent attributes and then switch between them with the help of flags acting as conditions.
Hope this will help

Can I send values to an Oracle Developer 6i Form from a servlet

I have a Developer Forms 6i application where I launch a servlet which opens a socket to another IP address. The servlet needs to send status messages back to the Developer 6i form. Is this possible? Can the servlet communicate with the form? Remember that the form is served via the applet viewer in the browser. Thanks

You can find an answer for a similar question here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1859248/how-to-change-time-in-datetime
The point is DateTime is immutable, thus you cannot change it.
DateTime StartDateTime = DateTime.Now;
int hour = 5;
int minute = 45;
// hour, minute, second
TimeSpan ts = new TimeSpan(hour, minute, 0);
StartDateTime = StartDateTime.Date.Add(ts);

Hi,
I think the binary file conversion was not done properly( you haven't filled bin_pdfx, its the otf_data ). OR, Use CONVERT_OTF FM and pass format as PDF. Check this document for reference: Opening a Smartform in Web Dynpro ABAP
Hope this helps u,

Customer quality Certificate-Smart form

Hi Experts!
I have developed smart form -Customer quality Certificate,need to attach that smart form to output type LQCB
and generate that Smartform by standard tcode QC22. I have replaced Std scrtpt program with Smart form but till QC22 is calling old script only but I need smartform to be called
Can anybody tell me how to trigger Smart form from QC22/QC21
Thanks
Jay

Hello Jayashankar
You will have to maintain the form detials in 2 places
1) In config Which i think you have maintained
SPRO>QM> Quality Certificates > Output Determination> Define Condition Types for Output Determination> Define Condition Types for Output Determination > LQCB > Processing routines > Print out > You can give the program and Form
2) In the certificate Recipient VV21 - select the customer and click on Communication button and maintain in Print setting , Smart form
This should work

Problem in page break of smart forms

Hi Gurus,
I am using smart forms for printing on cheque. What is the problem i am facing is i have three entries in my internal table which i am passing to the smart forms from my driver program. But In the output i am getting four print outs last one having the details of the previous one.
My logic flows like this,
I have used one loop for main window and have added the command for page break, and then I have read the values for the other windows. I have tried in many ways like counting the number of values in internal table and added that in command but its not working.
Anybody please help me to fix the problem.
Thanks in advance

Hello friend,
If you have a problem of getting one page printed in addition to the other pages then handle the situation as follows,
Try to create a folder and handle this problem or create alternatives and put the page break commands inside it so that you can handle the situation by giving condition in the alternatives.
If your problem still exists please revert back to me i will help you.
Thanks,
Sri Hari
