Doubt regarding Adobe forms used for PCR

Hey all,
I have a doubt regarding Adobe forms used for PCR.If i goto tc
SFP->form name (ISR_FORM_SPPM)->Layout->XML SOURCE-->
<base><server name><port>/sap/bc/fp/form/layout/</base>
But in tc SICF,i do not have anything beyond FP.It goes like this : sicf-> default_host->sap->bc->fp .
Could this be the possible cause of error why i am not able to view the forms in PDF format?
Can anyone , who has doen this before, please help me out with this issue?
Thanks,
Aditi

Hi Aditi,
Are you getting an error when you are trying to access the PDF form ?
Is ADS installed and configured properly ? Also let me know the operating system you are using, it's version, J2EE and Portal version.

Regarding adobe form using Webdynpro ABAP

Hi,
I am new to webdynpro abap.
Currently I am working on a scenario where..
I have a function module which generates the pdf for me based on the vbeln i provide in the first view. The only thing I have to do is to display the generated pdf on explorer.
As for as the examples i gone through.....I should provide the existing form name or the interface name. I don't have either of them as the function module is generating the pdf for me.
Could any one help me on this please....
Thanks,
Vijaya.

Hello Vijaya,
Please check out the following

This is what will work for you with some modifications. Since in your case you are already receiving the PDF from the FM, just set the pdfSource to this value and you should be done.

Interactive Forms based on Adobe software is SAP's new solution for forms development. Its first release has the focus on interactive use of forms. High-volume printing is supported in principle, but - being a new solution - the performance has not yet reached the same level as Smart Forms or SAPscript, two established solutions that had years to grow. Interactive Forms is the only solution that will continue to be enhanced with new features, while SAPscript and Smart Forms will be supported without limitations.
When (or if) to move to Interactive Forms depends on your requirements. For interactive forms usage, i.e. the new functions, you have no choice, as the existing solutions don't support it. High-volume print scenarios need to be carefully analyzed to see whether your concrete requirements can be met at this point.
However, it is possible to move to Smart Forms and design your forms in such a way that a migration at any point in the future would be but a small step. Smart Forms offers from Web AS 6.40 a migration wizard to Interactive Forms. Technically, everything can be migrated, but we recommend against things like ABAP program nodes, for example.
You are not forced to ever go to Interactive Forms if you don't want to. It really depends on whether your client needs any of the new features in Interactive Forms. Also, if they are currently working with JetForms, they could enquire with Adobe directly what migration path they offer to the joint solution.

example
To get an overview idea about Adobe forms ,
Using SFP Tcode , first you need to create a interface . in interface you can declare the import and export parameters and also the declaration part, coding etc : This is nothing but similar to Function module interface.
And now we have to create the Form which is interactive. Create the form and enter the interface name which you have created in first step, so that the parameters , declarations of fields etc : will be copied and available in the form layout. So that you can drag and drop these declared fields ( dclared fields of interface ) to the layout.
Create the context and layout in the form.
The layout generated can be previewed and saved as PDF output.
Now we need to integrate the driver program and the PDF form to get the final output as per the requirement.
On activating and executing the form you will get a function module name just similar to smartforms.
The driver program needs to call this FM.
Refer to the below sample code :
DATA : is_customer TYPE scustom.
DATA : it_bookings TYPE ty_bookings.
DATA : iv_image_url TYPE string.
DATA : iv_sending_country TYPE adrc-country.
DATA : it_sums TYPE TABLE OF flprice_t.
DATA : docparams TYPE sfpdocparams.
DATA : formoutput TYPE fpformoutput.
DATA : outputparams TYPE sfpoutputparams.
PARAMETERS : pa_cusid TYPE scustom-id.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM scustom INTO is_customer
WHERE id = pa_cusid.
SELECT * FROM sbook
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_bookings
WHERE customid = pa_cusid.

Adobe Form used by more than one user simultaneously

Friends,
I am working on an online interactive Adobe form using Web Dynpro ABAP.
once the user enters the data and clicks the submit button, the data is sent to ztables.
the scenario is that more than one user can possibly use the same form simultaneously. in that case, how can i maintain synchronization ie how to avoid multiple users from using the form at the same time, when the form is already being filled by one user already.
I am guessing i have to do something with ADS for this.
Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi Bertrand,
The purpose of allowing only one user is to ensure data consistency as you have guessed.
Is there a program name or transaction code where i can look up the lock entries and see if i can apply them to my web dynpro application or the adobe form.
I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks and Regards.

Making selective fields editable in adobe form [using web dynpro]

Hi,
I have displayed an adobe form using web dynpro application. But I have to make certain fields (not all fields) on this adobe form editable. I dont want to make this adobe form interactive because I dont have to save any data in database. The data entered in the editable fields will be saved as a pdf.
What I did so far:
1) The fields which I want as editable, I have given there type as "User entered/ optional" & for rest of the fields I have given type as "Read only".
2) In web dynpro, I have enabled the adobe
3) This is not making the fields editable.
4) If I write the following code in my webdynpro method WDDOMODIFYVIEW, then my data coming from adobe is not getting displayed even though the fields get selectively editable.
*data: LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM type ref to CL_WD_INTERACTIVE_FORM,
*LR_METHOD_HANDLER type ref to IF_WD_IACTIVE_FORM_METHOD_HNDL.
*check first_time = abap_true.
*LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM ?= VIEW->GET_ELEMENT('adobe').
*LR_METHOD_HANDLER ?= LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM->_METHOD_HANDLER.
*LR_METHOD_HANDLER->SET_LEGACY_EDITING_ENABLED( abap_true ).
Any inputs regarding this??
Thanks & Regards.

Hi,
Like I had mentioned using the following code in my webdynpro method WDDOMODIFYVIEW, my data coming from adobe form was not getting displayed even though the fields get selectively editable.
*data: LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM type ref to CL_WD_INTERACTIVE_FORM,
*LR_METHOD_HANDLER type ref to IF_WD_IACTIVE_FORM_METHOD_HNDL.
*check first_time = abap_true.
*LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM ?= VIEW->GET_ELEMENT('adobe').
*LR_METHOD_HANDLER ?= LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM->_METHOD_HANDLER.
*LR_METHOD_HANDLER->SET_LEGACY_EDITING_ENABLED( abap_true ).
So I kept this code & I also kept the Interface type "ABAP Dictionary based".
Additionally in Webdynpro, I used adobe form generated FM to get the adobe content & passed it to the "content" parameter of my adobe component in webdynpro.
Thanks & Regards.

We have a requirement to show employee data in Adobe form for both Managers and Administrators.
Managers can login to portal and access the Adobe form, and Administrators can see the form only in R/3.
My query is if I develop a adobe form in WD ABAP, Managers can see it in portal....will I be able to access the same adobe form with in R/3 using a report a progarm?
or Do i need to create a new Report program for Adobe and populate the data etc...
I want to minimize the coding effort by developing the form in WDAbap and showing it for both Managers(portal) and Admin(R/3)
If this is possible let me know how to proceed...

ADOBE Form Using Table with dynamic number of rows

Hi All
First some information about our infrastructure:
- AdobeDesigner 7.1 in the Developerstudio
- SAP-Portal 7.0 SP15
I have a View with tabstrips and behind the tabs i have defined an event. On one Tab I included a ADOBE-Form with Table. The Data for the PDF sould only filled in the context for the Form when i jump to this Tab. I created the Form by using this documentation [https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0859ad1-53aa-2a10-78ae-99e41c407669].
To fill the tablecontext I use the following Code:
IPrivateAnlegenBANFView.IPositionenElement position = null;
IPrivateAnlegenBANFView.IPositionenNode posNode = wdContext.nodePositionen();
int NUM_5_TIMES = 5;
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_5_TIMES; i) {
IPrivateAnlegenBANFView.IPositionenElement posElement = wdContext.createPositionenElement();
+posElement.setMaterial("" + i);+
+posElement.setKurztext("Test" + i);+
+posElement.setWarengruppe("Warengr" + i);+
posNode.addElement(posElement);
If i put this code in the wdDoInit method it works fine and shows me 5 Rows. But if I put the code in the Action of the tabstrip it shows me only one row. I checked the entries of the context and there are 5 entries (showed them in a WD-Table).
Can someone tell me what im doing wrong?
Thanks for a answer and kind regards
Pascal

Hi All
finally i found the solution for the problem.
When you define the interactive Form in the view do not define the property "dataSource" of UI-Element Interactive Form it seems, that the binding is static and not dynamic.
Add the following source to the viewCotroller
Global Part of the Source:
private static IWDInteractiveForm form = null;
Method wdDoModify:
if (firstTime) {
form = (IWDInteractiveForm) view.getElement("InteractiveForm");
When you have an Event where you fill your Contextnode which you want to display in the table of an Adobe Form Use this code:
Action:
public void onActionFillTab(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent ){
//@@begin onActionFillTab(ServerEvent)
* Code to fill the Node for AdobeForm Table
form.bindDataSource(wdContext.nodeTabelle().getNodeInfo());
//@@end
If you want to clear your table and show it directly use in the action the following code:
wdContext.nodeTabelle().invalidate();
form.bindDataSource(wdContext.nodeTabelle().getNodeInfo());
Kind regards
pascal

Information regarding Adobe forms

Dear Gurus,
I need some basic information regarding adobe forms to be used in ESS MSS portal for doing some basic actions by managers like hiring/maintenance of data for his subordinates.
Are there any specific system requirements so that adobe forms display in browser without any problems? Is there any specific internet browser which works without any problems?
What time is considered to be best time in which an empty form can be displayed?
In one line what is the acceptable time for a form to load which is not considered as slow and is it linked with network connections or individual systems of end users?
Need your kind inputs on this topic........
Regards,
kitchlu

Form works in IE 6, 7, 8 and Firefox
Make sure you have adobe products above 8.1 (includes all adobe products)
In Reader -> Edit -> Preference -> Internet - you have setting to display pdf in browser.
For a small form with limited fields, 5-10 seconds launching time can be achieved.
Performance depends on number of fields, User events, no of backend calls, number of dropdown boxes, Servce size, Network etc etc. Optimized code is another aspect to look into

I was looking at the "Find my iPhone" app and I have a doubt regarding how it works for the macbook. In order to detect the location, the macbook should remain signed into iCloud. What if the thief logs out of iCloud. Would we able to locate the macbook?

I was looking at the "Find my iPhone" app and I have a doubt regarding how it works for the macbook. In order to detect the location, the macbook should remain signed into iCloud. What if the person who has stolen my macbook logs out of iCloud.
It should work fine for iPhone/iPad because we can enable "Restrictions" to prevent the user from signing out of iCloud. Do we have simialr settings for the macbook?
Thanks,

If it's not on the device list, it indicates that someone has gone to Find My iPhone on icloud.com and manually deleted it from the device list (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0eeddd), and it has not gone back online since (which would cause it to reappear on the device list; Find My iPhone has been turned of in settings on the device; the iClolud account has been deleted from the device; or the entire devices has been erased and restored.
Unfortunately, there's no other way to track the phone other than through Find My iPhone. You could call your carrier and see if they would blackliste it so at least the theif couldn't use it.

ADOBE FORMS using Webservice

Hi Experts,
I have a problem with Adobe Forms Using webservice. I created RFC where it saves data from Adobe Forms to a customized table and exposed it as webservice. From the SOA manager, I copied the generated link pasted in the dataconnection in Adobe Lifecycle designer, but whenever I generate the form I keep receiving this error:
"http:// erpwrk1.corp.com:8000/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_DFA46DE60CFOD33F19F21005056C00008/wsdl11/allinone/ws_policy/document?sap-client=001". Check that the path is correct and that the file is a valid wsdl file.
I already activated services from SICF in relation SOAP runtime. What could be the cause of the problem and how to fix the problem?
Thanks A Lot!
Mae

Hi Ma. Angelica A. Estacio,
From the SOA manager, I copied the generated link pasted in the dataconnection in Adobe Lifecycle designer, but whenever I generate the form I keep receiving this error: Check that the path is correct and that the file is a valid wsdl file and hence i cannot finish the data connection wizard.
From the above posts, it looks like you have resolved the issue. But can you please let me know how did you resolve it ?
Did you check any SAP transaction to find the above mentioned checkbox?
Please revert as this has become critical now.
You can mail me your response on [email protected]
