Driver program and a print program

hi all,
wat is the basic difference between a driver program and a print program in scripts.
How do we do modification for FI scripts
Thanks & Regards,
Saroja.

hi Saroja,
Driver program or print program both r same... u can call either driver program or print progam.
Modifying the scripts depends upon your requirement,
basically if u have standard scripts better to copy it to zscript then make the chages like adding company logo or adding the company address or adding the terms and conditon what ever u asked to do then use the same print program write the extra logic in a subroutine in an executable program and call this routine in the script.
This is the method to modify the scripts with out modifying the print program because sometimes its not advisable to change the print program or
u can copy the print program to z program and u can add u r extra logic into it

Hi Suganya,
The custom form is getting displayed properly. But the requirement is to have it as an editable PDF. So the functional team is working on configuring the settings of PDF forms with customers email address.
But for right now, i customized the standard form F140_ACC_STAT_01 and standard print program RFKORD10_PDF and did the configuration. It is getting displayed (I tested only with the transaction FBL5N - customer open line items..)
Please let me know any further details on this.

Dialog programming and module-pool programming

Can someone tell em the difference between <b>dialog programming and module-pool programming</b> ?

Hi Vinod ,
Actually Dialog Programming is Module pool Programming.
Please go thru this , see if your dbout gets clear.
Basic components of dialog program?
-          Screens (Dynpros)
-          Each dialog in an SAP system is controlled by dynpros.A dynpros consists of a screen
And its flow logic and controls exactly one dialog step.
-          ABAP/4 module Pool.
     Each dynpro refers to exactly one ABAP/4 dialog program .Such a dialog program is also called a module pool ,since it consists of interactive modules.

Wht is the difference between unicode program and non unicode program ?

Hi guru,
wht is the difference between unicode program and non unicode program ?
Regards
Subash

About brief idea about unicode
In the past, SAP developers used various codes to encode characters of different alphabets, for example, ASCII, EBCDI, or double-byte code pages.
ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) encodes each character using 1 byte = 8 bit. This makes it possible to represent a maximum of 28 = 256 characters to which the combinations 00000000, 11111111 are assigned. Common code pages are, for example, ISO88591 for West European or ISO88595 for Cyrillic fonts.
EBCDI (Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange) also uses 1 byte to encode each character, which again makes it possible to represent 256 characters. EBCDIC 0697/0500 is an old IBM format that is used on AS/400 machines for West European fonts, for example.
Double-byte code pages require 1 or 2 bytes for each character. This allows you to form 216 = 65536 combinations where usually only 10,000 - 15,000 characters are used. Double-byte code pages are, for example, SJIS for Japanese and BIG5 for traditional Chinese.
Using these character sets, you can account for each language relevant to the SAP System. However, problems occur if you want to merge texts from different incompatible character sets in a central system. Equally, exchanging data between systems with incompatible character sets can result in unprecedented situations.
One solution to this problem is to use a code comprising all characters used on earth. This code is called Unicode (ISO/IEC 10646) and consists of at least 16 bit = 2 bytes, alternatively of 32 bit = 4 bytes per character. Although the conversion effort for the R/3 kernel and applications is considerable, the migration to Unicode provides great benefits in the long run:
The Internet and consequently also mySAP.com are entirely based on Unicode, which thus is a basic requirement for international competitiveness.
Unicode allows all R/3 users to install a central R/3 System that covers all business processes worldwide.
Companies using different distributed systems frequently want to aggregate their worldwide corporate data. Without Unicode, they would be able to do this only to a limited degree.
With Unicode, you can use multiple languages simultaneously at a single frontend computer.
Unicode is required for cross-application data exchange without loss of data due to incompatible character sets. One way to present documents in the World Wide Web (www) is XML, for example.
ABAP programs must be modified wherever an explicit or implicit assumption is made with regard to the internal length of a character. As a result, a new level of abstraction is reached which makes it possible to run one and the same program both in conventional and in Unicode systems. In addition, if new characters are added to the Unicode character set, SAP can decide whether to represent these characters internally using 2 or 4 bytes.
A Unicode-enabled ABAP program (UP) is a program in which all Unicode checks are effective. Such a program returns the same results in a non-Unicode system (NUS) as in a Unicode system (US). In order to perform the relevant syntax checks, you must activate the Unicode flag in the screens of the program and class attributes.
In a US, you can only execute programs for which the Unicode flag is set. In future, the Unicode flag must be set for all SAP programs to enable them to run on a US. If the Unicode flag is set for a program, the syntax is checked and the program executed according to the rules described in this document, regardless of whether the system is a US or an NUS. From now on, the Unicode flag must be set for all new programs and classes that are created.
If the Unicode flag is not set, a program can only be executed in an NUS. The syntactical and semantic changes described below do not apply to such programs. However, you can use all language extensions that have been introduced in the process of the conversion to Unicode.
As a result of the modifications and restrictions associated with the Unicode flag, programs are executed in both Unicode and non-Unicode systems with the same semantics to a large degree. In rare cases, however, differences may occur. Programs that are designed to run on both systems therefore need to be tested on both platforms.

How to print Signature stored in a flash drive on to check print program?

Hi,
I have a check print program template and have the following requirement. I need to print the signature image which is stored in a flash drive that will be inserted in to the check printer (HP laserjet 4250 series). The vendor sent the escape sequence to activate the signatue image. I'm familiar with how to print images stored in $OA_MEDIA area but not in a flash drive.
Has anyone done this before? If you did, could you please let me know how and where to put the escape sequence the vendor sent on the .rtf document to activate the signature image while the check print program is run (Format Payment Instructions - in rel 12) ?

Hi,
This is an interesting problem, and not something I have considered before. I do not know of an exact solution, but as your printer is on a network, theoretically it will have an IP address. When your flash drive is inserted into the printer I would assume that is is treated like any other drive in a PC, so you would be able to use a URL to get to it.
Using a dummy image and a URL to the printer flash drive you should be able to pick up the image.
Not entirely sure if this would work, but it may be food for thought, and help you along the way.

Standrad smartform and standard print program not available in ECC 6.0

Hi gurus,
I have a requirement like, I need to change the logo of the standrad smartform based on the company code.
The standard smartform name is '/SMBUSE/US_MMGR3'.
I have searched for the above form in ECC 6.0 and could not find one.
is the issue because of installation or configuration?
Please let me know what need to be installed or configured. so that I can give directions to the respective basis / functional guys.
please let me know the standard print program for the above smartform and how can I find the same.
Thanks & Regards
Kiran Kumar K

Hi ,
No standard smartform's were available because SAP Best Practises was not installed in the system.
If standard smarforms are not installed then in this case we need to need to download the forms and upload them in our system.
We need to copy paste the standard print program's as well.
Thanks & Regards,

Finding Program for triggering Print Program (MIGO - Goods Receipt)

Hi all,
Currently, I have developed customized print program and SMARTFORMS for Goods Receipt via MIGO, with output type ZZGR.
Typically, this is a inter-plant transfer, where Plant A will issue a Delivery Order to Plant B, and Plant B will post goods receipt via MIGO (Movement Type 101), using Delivery Order number. As soon as the Material Document is posted, the SMARTFORMS shall be triggered by customized print program, in order to print out the goods receipt document upon material doc posted.
The config for output determination (via TCODE NACE) for goods receipt is configured. I have tested post a goods receipt using Delivery Order, and Material Document is posted successfully. However, I got a message from SAP Inbox (Businees Area), saying that my Material Document having an update error, and the root cause is specifically from calling Function Module to trigger Smartforms in the print program. From tcode ST22, I realized that the error is due to empty parameter being passed to the function module (where the parameter is required field for further processing in Smartform).
In order to rectify why empty parameter is bieng passed, I will have to debug the print program, after GR posted from MIGO. Therefore, can someone shed some lights on how to perform a debugging process, or any standard sap program involved, as I understand that the print program is triggered (in background) after GR posted?
Also, can I know why the Material Document will not be committed to MKPF table after GR posted, is it due to the update error from the above mentioned?
Many thanks.
Best regards,
Patrick
P/S: I'm using SAP ECC6.

Actually, this print program is being triggered in the update processing.
Put a breakpoint in your driver program.
In MIGO, before pressing the SAVE button start debugging.
Press the SAVE button.
Start the update debugging by Settings > Update Debugging.
As soon as you continue in debugging, it would open another debugging session for the Update debugging. You can press continue and it would stop at your breakpoint.

Calling another program in the print program through FORM ENTRY

Hi All,
Have a requirement that I need to submit the program with variant to a print program.
But it is giving dump "Statement "SUBMIT" is not allowed in this form" while executing through VF04.
I have tried by using CALL FUNCTION "func" in update task .Inside the "func" in I have coded the logic of
submit program using selection-set VARIANT.
Even then while executing through VF04 got the dump "DYNPRO_SEND_IN_BACKGROUND" and "POSTING_ILLEGAL_STATEMENT ".
Kindly advise to resolve the issue.

Hi,
PLease make sure that u r using both smartforms and report..
Once the function called the report program, whether control back to the print program..
Using debugger please check..
put a break-point in your program and find where that dump is arised..
whether u want report only or smartform only...
If the same problem arises again,
Paste your report program code inside the print program instead of using SUBMIT..
let me know what the issue u r facing
regards
vijay

Im new to java programming and cant this program to help

Dear All
I using a Java Book called Java Gently written by J.Bishop Im working on a program and its typed out correctly and compiled corretcly, but for some reason wont work i dont know what parameters i need to enter.
take a look:

tshirts = new Curio ("Traditional mugs" , 30, "sizes M to XL");
carvings = new Curio ("Masks", 80, "carved in wood");
// Print out a header
System.out.println ("The Polelo Curio Store sells\n");
// Print the values contained in each of the objects

Difference between dialog programming and module pool programming

Hi all ,
         Is there any differnce between module pool programming and dialog programming .
thanks in advance ,
    magesh anandan

Mahesh,
    Both are same.
MODULE POOL : Through modules only we have access ABAP EDITOR
                               from FLOW LOGIC EDITOR .
DIALOG PROGRAMING : We use to have dialogs(Screen process) to interact
                                       with user .

Difference between Class Pool program and Interface Pool program

Both Class Pool program and an Interface Pool program indicate that the program contains interfaces that other programs can use globally. What exactly is the difference between them?

Transparent Table :
Exists with the same structure both in dictionary as well as in database exactly with the same data and fields.
" Pooled Table :
Pooled tables are logical tables that must be assigned to a table pool when they are defined. Pooled tables are used to store control data. Several pooled tables can be cominied in a table pool. The data of these pooled tables are then sorted in a common table in the database.
" Cluster Table :
Cluster tables are logical tables that must be assigned to a table cluster when they are defined. Cluster tables can be used to strore control data. They can also be used to store temporary data or texts, such as documentation.
" what is the major difference between Standard tables, Pooled tables and
" Clusterd Tables?
A transparent table is a table that stores data directly. You can read these tables directly on the database from outside SAP with for instance an SQL statement.
Transparent table is a one to one relation table i.e. when you create one transparent table then exactly same table will create in data base and if is basically used to store transaction data.
A clustered and a pooled table cannot be read from outside SAP because certain data are clustered and pooled in one field.
One of the possible reasons is for instance that their content can be variable in length and build up. Database manipulations in Abap are limited as well.
But pool and cluster table is a many to one relationship table. This means many pool table store in a database table which is know as table pool.
All the pool table stored table in table pool does not need to have any foreign key relationship but in the case of cluster table it is must. And pool and cluster table is basically use to store application data.
Table pool can contain 10 to 1000 small pool table which has 10 to 100 records. But cluster table can contain very big but few (1 to 10) cluster table.
For pool and cluster table you can create secondary index and you can use select distinct, group for pool and cluster table. You can use native SQL statement for pool and cluster table.
A structure is a table without data. It is only filled by program logic at the moment it is needed starting from tables.
A view is a way of looking at the contents of tables. It only contains the combination of the tables at the basis and the way the data needs to be represented. You actually call directly upon the underlying tables.
. Transparent tables (BKPF, VBAK, VBAP, KNA1, COEP)
Allows secondary indexes (SE11->Display Table->Indexes)
Can be buffered (SE11->Display Table->technical settings) Heavily updated tables should not be buffered.
II. Pool Tables (match codes, look up tables)
Should be accessed via primary key or
Should be buffered (SE11->Display Table->technical settings)
No secondary indexes
Select * is Ok because all columns retrieved anyway
III. Cluster Tables (BSEG,BSEC)
Should be accessed via primary key - very fast retrieval otherwise very slow
No secondary indexes
Select * is Ok because all columns retrieved anyway.
Performing an operation on multiple rows is more efficient than single row operations.
Therefore you still want to select into an internal table.
If many rows are being selected into the internal table,
you might still like to retrieve specific columns to cut down on the memory required.
Statistical SQL functions (SUM, AVG, MIN, MAX, etc) not supported
Can not be buffered
IV. Buffered Tables (includes both Transparent & Pool Tables)
While buffering database tables in program memory (SELECT into internal table) is generally a good idea for performance,
it is not always necessary.
Some tables are already buffered in memory.
These are mostly configuration tables.
If a table is already buffered, then a select statement against it is very fast.
To determine if a table is buffered, choose the 'technical settings' soft button from the data dictionary
display of a table (SE12). Pool tables should all be buffered.

SplWOW64.exe is freezing up 32bit programs and halting printing on 64bit Windows 7

I work IT for a bank with 600+ PC's (and just as many impatient users) and this issue is driving us up a wall. Here's the low down:
SplWOW64.exe as we know it is supposed to end itself 2 minutes after the last print job is finished. However, it does not. After some time of it not being terminated, it will completely block 32bit applications (like Adobe Reader, Microsoft Office, and a few
internal programs) from printing, and can even cause these applications to FREEZE until this process is manually ended in task manager.
These problems are appearing on any Windows 7 64bit machines we have on our network (not all of them that we are aware of, but A LOT of them). All of our printers are also network printers using mostly universal drivers from the manufacturers, but we do
have some printers we use specific drivers for.
We have tried the 2 fixes out in the KB article (KB2815716), and neither have been working across the board for us. I believe the hotfix has worked on SOME of our PC's, but the majority of them are still experiencing this issue.
I can provide screenshots of how some programs are reacting to this process not responding (print button grayed out, freezing the app when attempting to print, freezing apps even when not trying to print) if it will help our cause.
Thanks everyone for any help we can get.

Hello Dandalfini,
Please correct me if I have misunderstanding:
1. The SplWOW64.exe doesn’t end itself and it will block the 32bit applications like Adobe Reader, office in the 64bit Windows7.
2. The issue only occurs in some of the Windows 7 computers.
Are they are domain-joined Windows 7?
Are there any differences between the normal and abnormal Windows 7 computer?
What specific drivers do you mean in the sentence ‘we do have some printers we use specific drivers for’?
Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
1. Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Troubleshooting\All Categories
and run the printer troubleshooter.
2. Update the printer drivers

To know print program

Hi All,
How to find out a print program for a sap standard layout set.
Thanks & Regards,
S.Gangi reddy.

good day friend.
In order for you to see all the PRINT PROGRAMS together with its corresponding FORMS (whether done in Sapscript or SmartForms), use the tcode NACE.
Once you execute this tcode(NACE), it will display all the applications.The thing that Im not sure is, the way it was organized.
For you to have a clear overview, i will give a sample. Just follow the steps i will provide and after which, you can do your own search of the print program.
1. Type tcode NACE.
2. Select EF --->purchase Order.It must be highlighted.
3. Click "Output Type" above. A new window will appear afterwards.
4. In this new window, Select NEU -->purchase Order.
5. Once it is highlighted, click "Processing Routines" found at the left side of the window.
6. After which, a new display list appears.
7. In this display list, double click the name of the program under the tag "Print output".
8. The particulars of that program appears.
9. Finally, Click the name of the program and the "PRINT PROGRAM" you want to view appears thereafter.
Plz reward if this is helpful.
good luck.
