Dynamically call different pages in smart forms

Hello Abap Gurus:
I am creating a smart form for cobra letters, in which i need to display one letter for hourly employees, and other for salaried employees.
For example in my variant if i have two employees one salried and other hourly then my cobra letters should print different letters for salried and hourly employees.
Any suggestions are helpful.
Thanks,
Ratna.

Hi,
I am assuming that before coming to the Smartform you know the Status of the Employee. May be you can get the status from the Smartform Interface Parameters or else set the Variable (Used for comtroling the page printing) in the Driver Program and Import that variable to the Smartform.
Now once 4 letters are printed after the 4th Letter Create a New Page Command and Check the New Page Check and give Page as "5th Letter Page Name" and Under the Condition Tab give your Variable Name with the Set Value.
Similarly follow the same process for 6th Letter.
I suggest to set the Variables Values in Driver Program and IMport this Variable to the Smartform unsing the Form Interface.
Under the Condition Tab V_GROSS_HRLY(Say Identifier) NE ' '. This is will take of Printing the New Pages. I think this logic should work.
Let me know in case if you face any problem on this.

Calling different pages in a single sap script based on conditions?

Hi All,
         Can anyone please give me an example of how to call different pages in a single sap script based on condition. Eg., i need to call 5 differnet pages from a single sap script based on 5 company codes.
Please help
Regards
Priya

This approach to make call from SAPscript. Its concept is similar to make call to a subroutine in another program. I would presume you understand how to use USING and CHANGING parameter. =)
SAPscript -
/: Perform get_date in program z_at_date
/:    using &p_year&
/:    changing &new_date&
/: endperform.
program z_at_date -
form get_date TABLES rec_in STRUCTURE itcsy
                                rec_out STRUCTURE itcsy..
DATA:
   v_year type char10.
sap script and subroutine uses itcsy structure to transmit parameters
first parameter is incoming while second parameter is out going
their function is like an internal table with header line
all data types between SAPscript and subroutine are string.
so, you might need additional conversion.
read incoming parameter with exact name from SAPscript
READ TABLE rec_in WITH KEY name = 'P_YEAR'.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    v_year = rec_in-value.
ENDIF.
to return value, use the exact name on the second structure
    CONCATENATE v_year v_year INTO v_year.
    READ TABLE rec_out WITH KEY name = 'NEW_DATE'.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      rec_out-value = v_year.
      MODIFY rec_out TRANSPORTING value WHERE name = 'NEW_DATE'.
    ENDIF.
endform.

How to know no of pages in smart forms to be printed ?

Hi,
How to know no of pages in smart forms to be printed ?
though i got SFSY structure during run time of smartform , even that was not useful.
&SFSY-FORMPAGES&
Displays the total number of pages for the currently processed form. This allows you to include texts such as'Page x of y' into your output.
for that Page &SFSY-PAGE& of &SFSY-FORMPAGES&
during debug of smart form i don't understand how it is calculating no of pages ,as i kept break point before printing page no in smart form.
please check my two screen shots, sfsy-formpage still contains current page no only but not total no of pages.
Help Required.
Thanks In advance.

Hi Prakash,
You will not get these values during debugging.. Let the program execute completely, you will get the right values.
As Manish said, the value for &SFSY-FORMPAGES& will be known only after all the pages are processed, though it is not necessary that you use them in the final window only. It can be a text node in a window of any type.
You will get the desired output, just cant see them during debugging within the program. At the time of printing or in the print review, output would be as expected.
Also, FYI, it would be better to give total pages as &SFSY-FORMPAGES(3ZC)& as there can be error if the total number of pages exceeds 9, due to lack of sufficient space to print more digits

CREATION OF MULTIPLE PAGES IN SMART FORMS

Hi,
I have a smart form in which i need to create 2pages.First will be followed by next and next by next
I created the first page and then i created the next page .
when i created first page i got a default main window and when i created a second page i.e the next page ,i did not get any default main window and when i tried to save it gives an error saying page without window cannot be saved.
WHEN I CREATED A WINDOW WITH MAINWINDOW BUTTON ENABLED IT SAYS ALREADY EXISTS AND TWO MAN WINDOWS CANNOT EXIST .cAN ANYONE PLS HELP ME OUT REGARDING THIS
THANKS

hi
good
1-go to smartforms
2-in a smartforms there is only one main window you can create,it is not like sap script that you can create 0 to 98 main windows,so on main window ll come bydefault but if you want to create another window that would be called as subwindow and that you can create by right click on the main window node and select create window.
3-After selectging the window one small window would arise over the main window screen , you can give any size of that window and on the right hand side of the window node you ll find three tab from there on general attribute would be there,from there you select secondary window ,because every second window other than the main window is called as secondary window.
now you can try like this it ll definitely work fine.
thanks

Calling different pages in smartforms

Dear Friends,
I need one solution in smartforms, i need to print the different labels in my smartform. For example i have to print three labels
and one normal layout. Three labels means having some fixed data of three rows maximum and these labels repetatively i need to print based on some conditions those conditions i am doing in driver program itself.
For example assume first label i need to print 2 times,second 2 times and third 14 times then final layout contains header and items section as usual.
So here in the first page only i need to print first label then i have to call the new page to print second label then i have to call the
new page to print third label as there are 14 labels in third page i have to print 9 labels and in the fourth page i have to print remaining 5 labels and i need to call new page to print the last section, the last section is like normal layout there mainwindow and everything is there.
Please help me to handle this scenario.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Pages in Smart Forms

Hi Experts...
I'm having a problem with the paging of a couple of Smartforms...
I did not develop them but I've been asked to try to fix the issue.
The forms have something particular, they have different PAGES (2 or more) and the customer wants the page counter to INITIALIZE for each PAGE.
For example:
One of the forms is an AUDIT Form. It has the pages FIRST and SECOND.And they're set up like this:
FIRST:
- Next Page: SECOND
- Mode: Initialize Counter
SECOND:
- Next Page: SECOND
- Mode: Increase Counter
To Print the paging we're using:
Page &SFSY-PAGE& of &SFSY-FORMPAGES&
When we print, there are 3 pages on the form (2 for FIRST and 1 for SECOND), BUT, the paging is coming out like this:
Page 1 of 1
Page 2 of 1
Page 1 of 1
The correct would be:
1 of 2
2 of 2
1 of 1 (because this is "a different form inside the same form")
First 2 pages are for FIRST... and the last is for SECOND.
I have already changes the config to both as INCREASE (still wrong 'cause then they show 1 of 3, 2 of 3 and 3 of 3)
I've tried everything... any ideas?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Fernanda

&SFSY-FORMPAGES& gives the total no of pages in a form and as per your example it is 3 . You are trying to achieving something which is not possible with system variables.( print 2 layouts using 1 smart form object ).
You may review the data and see the how pages are displayed. .. if it is always 3 pages then you can hard code it or reset the counter based on &SFSY-PAGENAME& . otherwise you need to build a logic to determine how many second pages out of &SFSY-FORMPAGES&...
It would have been better if the second page is kept as a separate smart form, however doing this now would be time consuming .
In case you are not able to derive the no of pages from the total pages, then I would suggest you to convince the business to use simple page numbering(1,2,3 ). and then you can reset the page counter based on page name .. ( use variable for page counter ).

Dynamically display the page numbers on forms

Hi,
I have 10 pages in a form with the common footer section/fap in all pages. I used the common footer section to maintain the consistent left and right footer (having State specific footer information) on all ten pages. But I would like to display the page number dynamically based on page number as specified below:
For example, for page 1, it should display the footer as Page 1A,for page 2 it should display as Page 1B, for page 3 it should display as Page 1C etc.,
Can anyone help me on this issue how can I dynamically display the page number based on the current page as per the above requirement.
Thanks,
Srini.

Ignoring the fact that you have 10 pages that you want to label all as "page 1", assuming you have version 11.4 (? or higher) you might be able to do this.
Somewhere around that version the concept of "Print time" fields was introduced where you can define a field that will make a call-out to generate the value at the point in time when it tries to print.
You would name the field something like: ~DAL MyPageValue
Yes, with the tilde next to DAL and a space between DAL and the name of a script you want to execute that would do your calculation. As the previous reply mentions, you would have to keep track of your own page counter to know whether to append the 'A', 'B', 'C', etc. to the "Page 1" description you intend.

Blank pages in smart forms

hi am working on smartforms i developed a smart form in which i designed a selection screen it will take run-date and run-id from the user and displays vendors address iten details and description and amount after tht cheque will be printed.
   giving the adress and item details of each vendor in one go.

so am using a codition on address window main vindow
i declared
data: V_LINES(3) type c.
describe table it_regup1 lines V_LINES.
