Dynamic Tables in PDF - repeating Header row in all pages

Hi ,
I have created a dynamic table in PDF, When I add rows, the table is spanning to next page, and I should get the header row in all pages. But, I am getting the header row only for the 2nd page(In Header row properties, I have choosed the header row to be displayed in all pages). I need the Header row to be displayed in all pages.
To see the previous thread, Click [here|Dynamic Table - same data repeating in all rows;.
Thanks and Regards,
Prabhakar.

Hi Prabhakar,
Try out with following step
Header Row -> Binding -> Select the check box
Repeat Row for each Data item (Min Count 1)
Please let me know if this is working or not.
Cheers

Dynamic Table in PDF - only first row passed to the WD Java

Hi Experts,
I'm working with Web Dynpro for Java on WAS 2004s SP13, ADS for SP13 and LiveCycle Designer 7.1
I am facing a problem related to PDF-dynamic table generation.
I am creating the PDF form with a dynamic table, an empty row will be added, when ADD button is clicked, the row will be deleted when DELETE button is clicked. After form submit, only first row of the table is passed to the Web Dynpro. I'v tried to use different dataSource Context node structure without results. The structure diescribed in the thread [Dynamic Table - same data repeating in all rows; doesnt works for me. The same happend if i try to folow the advise from Wiki https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDJava/Creating%20Table%20in%20Interacting%20form%20using%20Web%20Dynpro.
Beside this, my DropDown list in the table column is not populated. I know how to populate the DropDown list outside of table. That's working fine. But the DropDown in the table just not respond on the click (is not going open). I'm pretty sure that this is a result of a Context node structure/binding issue.
Please suggest me how can i implement dynamic table and populate the data in table dropdown column.

Hi Prabhakar,
You describe exactly my situation. The node which is bound to the table row has cardinality 1..n. Exactly Context structure is:
node dataSource (cardinality 1..1/ Singleton true) ======> dataSource of the Interactive Form
subnode TableList (cardinality 1..1/ Singleton true) ======> bound to the table in the Interactive Form
subnode TableWrapper (cardinality 1..n/ Singleton true) ======> bound to the table row in the Interactive Form
subnode TableData (cardinality 0..1/ Singleton false) ======> table data
attribute 1 ====> Context nodeattribute bound to the table row field
attribute 2
This structure is recommanded in the post that I found on the Forum (see the firs hyperlink in my firs post).
Is this structure correct? Why is not working?
Your link is not working. Can you post the correct one.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Adnan

Tables: how do I turn off repeating heading row?

Hi,
how do I turn off the repeating heading row feature in tables? I've looked through Table Designer and on-line Help but no joy. I know it's probably something very simple but I just can't find it.
Advice appreciated.
Cheers

Also, if you already have heading rows and you are just trying to get rid of them, I think your only option is to delete them. If a heading row contains content that should be in a body row, create a new body row and copy/paste the content into it before deletion of the heading row. I think you can also just copy the whole row, put the insertion point in the body area, then paste, and it magically becomes a body row. Note that you can restore heading rows with the Add Rows and Columns feature.

Table section with 3 header rows pagination issue

Hi experts.
I have a table section pagination issue. In my case the table section combines 3 header rows.
Down bellow the series of screenshots I hope they describe my example well (click on screenshots to enlarge).
1) The data context
2) Layout elements
Here is my issue (table header output at the end of the page but there is no data row):
As you can see on the first page there is no more place for a data row but the header still exists.
if I set keep with next flag on the pagination tab for all header rows the result will be:
Is it possible somehow to fix it?
I would like to have the header row output on the page only if a data row exists bellow the header, the footer should only output if a data row exists above.
Here is PDF output:
https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B4wQz1XhRuysMzhiN2EyYzM tMDdjZS00Yzc3LWIyNTgtODUzZWRhY2MwYjMx&hl=en_US

The solutions is easy. You´d better create the corresponding DDIC objects hierarchy in the backend and then use the form to PRINT the prepared data ONLY. I mean:
In your backend:
in a row there is a dataset (table) and a optional dataset (table) == DDIC structure with two "fields" of type "table" = row A
use this "row" to create the "outer" table == DDIC table type with row A
Then you can just drag and drop this structure in your adobe form and will have do difficult with formatting.

"Include Header Row in Subsequent Pages" is not working for table

Hi,
I'm using version 8.1.2.3337.1.509884.
The pagnation feature "Include Header Row in Subsequent Pages" is not working for any table in my design. ( the check-box can not be checked no matter how many times I clicking it)
I put such table already in a flow bodypage.
Any similar issue reported?
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi Raghu,
Appologies that I uploaded a wrong version of xdp file yesterday.
Here is the correct one.
https://acrobat.com/#d=jr0XffvBZWXd0cVhL0OQ3A
I totally understand that I have to check the checkbox "Include Header Row in Subsequent Pages".
My problem is that, although I can see that checkbox, and it's not grey-out, I can not tick it. See below screenshot, with the red-cycle mark.
You can try with above file.
Just wondering why such weird behavior happened.

Header row on multiple pages

Hi All,
Please could someone explain how to conditionally display the Header row on first and subsequent pages, but make it dependent on the body row. That is, if the output flows into the second page and there are line items to display on the second page, only then should the Header appear. If there are no line items for the second / subsequent page then the Header should be suppressed.
I have had a look at form - F110_AVIS_INT - this form has the functionality mentioned above and doesn't use conditional breaks for the Header row - but I cant decipher how it works. Please advise.
Kind regards,
Arijit

Hi Gaurav,
      I have a table and i want to table header to be repeated in subsequent pages but only till 2 pages the table header is visible from the 3rd page onwards the table header is not repeated.
I have selected the Header Row in hierarchy and in Pagination tab for the header row i have checked the the check box Insert Header Row in Subsequent Pages.
After selecting the checkbox also table header is repeated only in 2 pages and not repeated after the second page.
My table hierarchy in form is :
TableSubform
   Table
       HeaderRow
       Row1
In your previous reply you have placed header in a separate subform and you have selected the body subform and in overflow leader you have selected the header subform to be repeated.
In my scenario i selected the TableSubform and in Overflow Laader i selected HeaderRow and tried but it was not working.
I am using Designer 8.0 and Acrobat Reader 8.0
Can you please help me in solving this issue.

How to repreat only Group Header #2b in all pages?

Hi
Is there any way to repreat only Group Header #2b in all pages?
When I select repeat group header in all pages, it repeating Group Header #2a & Group Header #2b.
how to repeat only Group Header #2b?
Thank you

You can conditionally suppress group headers.
Set the headers to repeat on each page, and then to have group header 2a only printed once while group header2b repeats on all pages then contionally suppress group header 2a with
inrepeatedgroupheader // suppresses repeated headers
Note you can also suppress a header the first time header is printed with
not(inrepeatedgroupheader) //suppresses the first time

Nested Tables Repeat Header Row RTF Output Not Working v5.6.2(PDF does)

All,
Has anyone used nested tables in heading rows where they are set to repeat nested table header row across page breaks for RTF output ? This seems to work for PDF generation (line breaking enforcement doesn't) but I don't even get RTF Header ROWS indicated in my RTF output document. I have enabled them in my RTF template for the outer table row plus the inner nested table. Is this possible for RTF output or have I not indicated something in my RTF template or grouping clause ??
Thanks,
Tom

PDF Table action block is repeating first row in each page.

Hi All,
There is a strange problem in PDF Table action block. I am paasing one xml variable in the pdf table action block. But when it creates the final pdf - I can see the very first row of the xml is getting repeated as first row of each page along with the header.
Is there any solution - not to reapeat the first row of the xml in each page ?
Thanks in advance for your response.

Dynamic Table - same data repeating in all rows

Hi Satya,
I am creating the PDF form using WebDynpro java application, and the form should be stored in local disk. The user should be able to fill and save the data in the table at any time.
Note : The table used in PDF form is a dynamic table, an empty row will be added, when ADD button is clicked, the row will be deleted when DELETE button is clicked.
The javascript code udes are,
For adding a row,
xfa.form.PDFDataSource.Subform1.Table1.Row1.instanceManager.addInstance(1);
For deleting a row,
Subform1.Table1.Row1.instanceManager.removeInstance(this.parent.index);
I have done the data binding to the fields of the table. I am able to save the data in local disk.
The problem is, when I click ADD button, a new row is created but with the same data in previous row. even if I create 10 rows, all have same data. If I try to change any data any where in the table, it reflects in all the rows.
Can you give me a solution?
Regards,
Prabhakar.

Thanks. Actually yesterday night I could not do the thorough testing so just waiting for your confirmation.
Actually if you open my PDF in Adobe Life Cycle Designer and check the data binding you will get the answer.
Special care should be taken in designing the context for table attribute.
The attribute type singletone also plays a important role. I have this doubt from the beginning when you have reported this problem for the first time but finally you marked it as solved so i thought there might be some other issues but again when you reported that again i did some analysis.
Now coming to final solution :
For designing a table in adobe interactive form you have consider following
You have to design the view context upto three level, I am explaining you the properties
PDFDataSource (Parent Level1) - Cardinality 1:1 - Signetone -True - This is assigned to datasource
TableList (Parent Level2) - Cardinality (1:1) - Signetone -True
TableWrapper(Parent Level3) - Cardinality (0:n) - Signetone -True
TableData (Parent Level4) - Cardinality (0:1) - Signetone - false (This is the main point)
Then under TableData value node, you have to put all your table attributes.
This Value Node name can be anything but hierarchy should be same as I have mentioned above.
Please try out these steps and get back to me if you have any doubt.
Cheers

Repeating Header Rows - Not repeating beyond page 2

Hello,
I'm at my wit's end and I have yet to see a response to questions related to repeating headers (though I've seen it in a few forums).
I have a flowed form with an initial header table and then 4 subforms, each made up of tables with a header group of two rows and then a user-modified number of data rows. Each of the subforms has it's own 2 line header, which includes a static "topic" row (with "add/delete row" button) and then a second header row with the column titles (9 columns across). As I said, these two header rows are grouped together.
Each of the 4 subforms can (and does) flow on to multiple pages once filled in by the users. At first, my issue was getting the two rows (grouped) that make up my header to repeat on subsequent pages for each subform. No go - apparently grouped header rows can't make up an overflow leader (I can only choose one of the two), and when I check the box to make the GROUP appear on subsequent pages under pagination, it will only appear on page 1 and 2 for that particular subform...so I've given up on that. Now I just want the second header row (with the column titles) to appear on every page that each subform overflows on to, but I can still only get it to appear TWICE. Anytime a subform moves onto a third page, requiring a third instance of the header, it doesn't work.
I came across one solution involving the "repeat header for each row", but that came with a host of new bugs, including a bug where every time I open, edit data in a particular subform and save the file, a NEW header group row is added to that subform (after 12 opens, there is literally 12 header rows at the top of each of my 4 subforms if I edit data in all 4)...though it solves the other issue and the header rows DO appear properly on subsequent pages beyond page 2!!!!
Any solutions? I've run into this on three separate occasions over the past year when building forms and every time, I've hit this wall, given up the search for a solution and sacrificed aesthetics and functionality in my forms that I shouldn't really have to.
Ck.

Here is a sample I did for you..
https://acrobat.com/#d=BSeyeLhbaeyqXfwX*wrwzA
The difference with this file, is I created a table and then in the top row I merged all cells. Then created a table with two rows inside this merged cell.
In the Header row properties I checked, repeat header in Subsequent pages.
Let me know if you have any issues..
Thanks

Help on displaying Repeat Header Rows

Hi All,
I have a table where i need to repeat each header per page But i there's one value that i need to display on the first page only.:
given the following repeat each header per page:
page 1 header
product1
product2
product3
page 2 header
product2
product3
page 3 header
product2
product3
i set the table to repeat header per row. But it keeps appearing the product 1 for 2nd page and 3rd page.
thanks in advance,
Paolyn

Hi Kavipriya thanks for your reply:
My xml structure are the following:
<List of Productitems>
<List of Productlines>
<ProductId>
<ProductGroup>
<ProductPlan>
<modelid>
<modelname>
<modeltype>
<List of productlines>
<List of ProductItems>
I regroup my xml by ProductId, ProductGroup,productPlan and i need to display model id ='0001' per page of the report as header information. Plus i need to display modelname='Sample1' on the first page only of the report as header which contains model id='0001' also.
Thanks in advance,

Dynamic table - some fields of different rows in one column

Hey guys,
i have the following problem:
i habe a itab with some data like:
name | id | date | number
pete | 1 | 27.07 |    2
pete | 1 | 28.07 |    2
pete | 1 | 30.07 |    2
ann   | 1 | 28.07 |    3
ann   | 2 | 30.07 |    2
the user can define a period of time, e.g. 28-29.07
so my dynamic table will consist of the "hard" columns name and id and the dynamic added columns for every day:
name | id | 28.07 | 29.07
that's what i already have!
so my problem is, that i have to read the data from the itab into the new dynamic table (field-symbol) like:
name | id | 28.07 | 29.07
pete   | 1 |    2     |    2
ann    | 1 |    3     |    -
i hope you can understand what i want! please give me code sample or a example report!
many thanks in adance!
best regards,
ludwig

hey Asik, you have understand what i want!
here is my table:
http://img181.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wh20080916113004ym8.png
after the loop, the 4 rows should be in my field-symbol only one row (no sum)!
but after the loop, there are to many rows! only one row is needed!
Look at the screenshot:
http://img185.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wh20080916113547wl0.png
So the second row at column "tag20080801" should be initial and with the next loop, the next day "tag20080730" should be filled with the number!
LOOP AT LT_OUT INTO LS_OUT.
ASSIGN COMPONENT 'RESSOURCEN' OF STRUCTURE <FS_LINE> TO <fs_field>.
<fs_field> = 'Ressource'.
ASSIGN COMPONENT 'NAME' OF STRUCTURE <FS_LINE> TO <fs_field>.
<fs_field> = LS_OUT-name.
ASSIGN COMPONENT 'PROJEKT' OF STRUCTURE <FS_LINE> TO <fs_field>.
<fs_field> = LS_OUT-PROJECTID.
CONCATENATE 'DATE' LS_OUT-DATE INTO LF_DATE_COL.
ASSIGN COMPONENT LF_DATE_COL OF STRUCTURE <FS_LINE> TO <fs_field>.
<fs_field> = LS_OUT-COUNT.
COLLECT <FS_LINE> INTO <FS_TABLE>.
ENDLOOP.
the right output data should look like this:

Table overflow, only header row fits on page, avoid header

Hello together,
I encountered the following problem with adobe forms. The form consists of a table with a header row and (for sure) a data part. The table is encapsulated on a subform. If the table doesn't fit on one page, it breaks correctly to the next page (including header).
Because the table is not the onliest content of my page, it could happen that only the header row fits on the first page. So after the header, I get a page break. Is it possible to avoid the output of the table on first page, if only the header row will fit on it?
Currently it looks like this:
FIRST PAGE
bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla
HEADER
<-- page break -->
NEXT PAGE
HEADER
DATA

Hello Niels,
thanks for you help. I tried a lot with the "Keep with:" options the last couple of hours and now I double checked the flags.
I missed the flag "Keep with: NEXT" at table header level. Now it works as expected.
The table is part of a subform of type "flow". For the subform, I also checked the Keep with flag becasue the subform contains more than just the table.
Now, if only the header row fits on the first page, the whole subform starts at the next page. If the table needs much more space, it correctly breaks at the end of the next page.
Thank you very much

Dynamic table with multilevel column header

Hi all ,
Can u please tell me how to create dynamic internal table and display which has two level column header using alv.
For example : | amount | year | Month |
in $
in #
oct
nov
Thanks in advance ,
SA

Hi SA,
For your first question - Creating dynamic table refer code below...
PARAMETERS: p_input TYPE i OBLIGATORY.
START-OF-SELECTION.
DATA: v_fieldname TYPE char30.
DATA: v_char TYPE numc4.
DATA: it_fldcat TYPE lvc_t_fcat.
DATA: wa_it_fldcat LIKE LINE OF it_fldcat.
DATA: gp_table TYPE REF TO data.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <gt_table> TYPE table.
DO p_input TIMES.
v_fieldname = 'COL'.
v_char = sy-index.
CONCATENATE v_fieldname v_char INTO v_fieldname.
CONDENSE v_fieldname.
CLEAR wa_it_fldcat.
wa_it_fldcat-fieldname = v_fieldname.
wa_it_fldcat-datatype = 'CHAR'.
wa_it_fldcat-outputlen = 5.
wa_it_fldcat-intlen = 5.
APPEND wa_it_fldcat TO it_fldcat .
ENDDO.
CALL METHOD cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table
EXPORTING it_fieldcatalog = it_fldcat
IMPORTING ep_table = gp_table.
ASSIGN gp_table->* TO <gt_table>.
Now you can use <gt_table> ..
2. It is not possible to have multiple format column for ALV..
Hope this solves ur prob..
Enjoy SAP.
