Dynamic screen changes in adobe form

Hi Experts,
I have an adobe form with a form type radio button. Based on the form type selected (radio button), some of the fields on the adobe form should become editable and some uneditable.
How is it achievable? Please advise.
Thanks,
Shobhit

Hi Shobit,
This can be achieved using Scripting.
To make a field non editable 
write ->
$.access = "readOnly"
You may please refer the adobe lifecycle designer help and also there are few blogs in SDN regarding - SAcripting in Adobe forms.
Hope these would help.

  • Dynamic dropdown list in adobe forms.

    Hi All,
    I need to have a dynamic drop down list in the adobe forms.The values for the drop down list are selected from a standard table at runtime.This is the online scenario.
    I have been using Enumerated drop down list.How do i pass the value or bind the values to this element.
    I have enable Dynamic binding in the Properties of designer. but i am not able to enter the values into the specify item values.(OBJECT-BINDING-SPECIFY ITEM VALUE).Actually in my case it is coming disable.
    I have also set the preview format to "ACROBAT 8 (Dynamic) XML FORMAT" which is in the form properties.
    please let me know if i am missing any step?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    1) I am sure you didn´t search because I have answered this question many times around here. Next time seacrh first, ask later, please. That is how we do it here.
    2) you must, in your options menu in LCD, allow yourself to use dynamic binding. Check the menus for the checkbox, that should help you get what you need.

  • Dynamic page length in Adobe Forms for paper roll printing

    Hi gurus,
    I have a requirement to create an invoice printout using a thermal printer with paper roll feed. Depending on the number of line items I have on my document the page could grow to an indefinite length. Is this something we could achieve using Adobe forms and ABAP?
    Cheers,
    Marc

    In the end we just added a second page and expanded the content area up to the borders of the page. This produces quite a gap in the paper in between pages but we were able to eliminate it thru the use of the printer's paper back-feed commands.

  • Dynamic display fields in Adobe Form

    Hi all,
    I am trying to design a Adobe non-interactive form.
    But my requirement is If Field = ‘X’ then display table1.
    If Field = ‘’ then do not display table 1 in output of Adobe form.
    Field & table both are coming from SE38 code.
    Please guide me if it is possible or not with a single adobe form.
    Other option I have I can design 2 different form one with table & other with no table.
    Please guide me if it is possible with one Adobe form or not.
    Regards

    Hi Umesh,
    This is possible using single Adobe form only. Pass this field into context.
    And in form, write the script on Form:Ready event of body page:
    if ( $.FIELD eq "X" ) then
          $.Table1.presence  = "hidden"
    endif
    Hope this helps,

  • Dynamic table control in adobe forms

    Hi All,
    I am creating abobe form using web dynpro java. I have a table with one row & 5 columns. After that i have put "add" button, so that as i click on this button, a new row will be inserted in the same table with same no. of columns & data fields.
    Please can anyone tell me, how can i do this???
    Thanks & regards,
    Vinita Sharma

    Vinita,
    You will need to use the addInstance method. For example try looking the Purchase Order form which may be stored at this location on ur PC.
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Designer 7.1\EN\Samples\Purchase Order\Dynamic Interactive\Forms

  • Change the image in the statice adobe forms dynamically based on condition.

    Hi Experts,
    Could you please explain how to change the image dynamically in the static adobe forms based on certain condition/calculation.
    Thanks in Advance.

    One of the very few options you have is loading them all into the form as embedded images, and then dynamically making the visible and hidden depending on your conditions.
    Dynamic loading of images (from a URL or remote location) was completely removed from Interactive Forms a while ago as it was deemed insecure. (and it is)
    The second option is loading them all into your SAP system and then making a webservice which you call with a trigger to return you the binary form of the image, which you can read by creating the correct type in the Context.
    Kind regards,
    Frederik-Jan.

  • Wed dynpro Screen VS Adobe forms

    Hi,
    as i understood adobe forms can be used as offline files and later can be uploaded, and also functionality like printing is possible with adobe forms.
    what i dont understood is why dont we just use normal webdynpro screens instead of adobe forms
    what are the basic differences that force us to use adobe forms rather than normal web dynpro screens
    this may seems weird question!!!
    your suggestions are invited.
    Thanks,
    Kranthi.

    Hi,
    SAP and Adobe have a very strong relationship, both at the business level and the technical level. SAP ship a number of PDF form templates as standard forms for to use, complementing SAP's Smartform and SAPScript offerings. They also ship the Adobe Form designer in both the ABAP and Java development environments. However, *to develop inhouse forms or enhance existing forms customers will need some expertise in LiveCycle and need to pay some additional licensing fees.* The Adobe Forms are very familiar to end-users and offer both online (through Webdynpro) and offline solutions for data entry.
    One thing to be aware of is that Adobe Forms are not as tightly integrated to the ABAP runtime as say WD4A and therefore do not offer the richer client functionality, but are very suitable for simple forms and simple requirements.
    Another thing,
    Smart forms / scripts are used to show the data in SAP. Most likely you will use these to print / display some kind of reciepts / forms. Many companies must be using this for hard copies / ALE / EDI or to transfer data from SAP to others.
    Adobe forms are used to post data into SAP from SAP too.  So this has an additional feature compared to smartforms.
    Hope you are cleared...

  • Custom Adobe Forms in FORM16 output

    Dear Sapgurus,
    I have a requirement to change the adobe forms output in FORM16 PDF output.
    In standard output PDF will contain annexure to Form 16 as fifth page .We don't need that fifth page in output.
    So we tried to create a custom Adobe form without the annexure  but unable to get PDF output with custom adobe form.
    We are able to get the PDf output with 5 pages if we used the standard adobe form .Is there any other way to restrict the fifth 
    page.
    Kindly provide me some info  whether we need configure apart from ADS settings or how to restrict the fifth page alone ?.

  • Adobe form as input to approval workflow

    I have not used Adobe form before, so please bare with me! I have a couple of basic questions.
    Do I have to download the Adobe designer software from sap marketplace, or is it on the SAPGUI install cd?
    Do I need the Adobe designer s/w or is there a sap transaction equivalent?
    Can the 'pull downs' in the form get their 'allowed' values from the backend ECC6 system or do they have to be set when creating the form.?
    Is there a transaction in ECC6 which a user can run to see all the different forms that have been created?
    The intention is to have a form which will be filled in by a user as a request to proceed with a contract specification document, this doc will be a word doc, held in ECC6 in DMS. But the initial form though will go to a number of managers for approval, can a form be 'workflowed' easily, if so, how?
    Thanks for your patience.
    Jon

    Hi John,
    Yah, as Surya said,you need ADLC for Adobe forms design. And this available in Service place or even in your SAPGUI CD(You gotta check in FORMS Option enabled).
    You can create/change/delete Adobe forms in SAP using SAP Form Painter(SFP txn).
    You can create the dropdowns from ECC data.
    You can achieve your requirement either using ISR's or using WebDynpro based Adobe forms. Check out my old threads for further information.
    Hope this helps.

  • ListBox control in Adobe forms

    Hello experts,
    I have Adobe Interactive Form where I'd like to design standard Adobe List Box control having some predefined enumeration for list of items in it. On time of  submission of the form the following XML is sent by Adobe Acrobat Reader where 'ClassificationList' is a name of my ListBox.
    <form1>
    <Name>x</Name><Description>x</Description><ClassificationList /><ClassificationList xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/" xfa:dataNode="dataGroup" />
    <ClassificationList xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/" xfa:dataNode="dataGroup" />
    <ClassificationList><value>cat22</value></ClassificationList>
    </form1>
    Is there any possibility to avoid representation of 'ClassificationList' field in XFA format, but sent the field as field 'Name' is sent? I.e. in form of merged selected text box items into plain text. For example, 'selectedItem1; .. ;selectedItemN'.
    Why does not the PDF send just something like this '<ClassificationList>cat22</ClassificationList>' for the ListBox?

    Hi Sandipan,
    In Wd ABAP scenario, SAP is not supporting dynamically created rows from adobe forms. It will accept a single row only. We can overcome this situvation in 2 ways.
    1. Make the "Add Row" button as a submit button. Each time when you add a row in adobe form, save the row in R/3. It can cause performance issues.
    2. At the time of form download, it should contain an invisible table with n no: of rows. Just before submit, enter the values in the dynamic rows into the invisible table. At R/3 end, you will get all values from that table.
    Thanks & Regards,
