Export data to adobe non interactive form

Hello,
I would like to fill a non interactive adobe form with seized data in visual composer.
How I can do that please ?

Tony-
I have not worked with Adobe Forms so I am not sure if this is feasible. If I had to populate a Web Dynpro form with data from a VC form I would have an action which would invoke the URL of the Web Dynpro application. This URL would have appended to it the field name and values as entered in the VC form. In the Web Dynpro component I would retrieve all the parameter values being passed through the URL and then set these values into the context. If the context is bound to a form, the data will automatically be displayed.
Cheers-

Error during activation of adobe non-interactive form

Hello everyone,
I am trying to activate a non-interactive adobe form and am getting the below error:-
"Field p_lifnr has a conversion routine(see SAP note 796755)".
I have made sure that this field (which is corresponding to LFA1-lifnr) has context binding, I even tried using below code in its interface:-
GET PARAMETER ID 'LIF' FIELD p_lifnr.
and also tried the below:-
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
        EXPORTING
          input = p_lifnr
        IMPORTING
          output = p_lifnr.
just in case..
but all above in vain,can someone let me know what might be the problem....or where would I find this 'SAP note 796755' ?
Thanks,
Rachna.

Hi,
I am facing the same problem of "Error during activation" while activating the SAP interactive form.
I am using ECC 6.0, ADL 7.1 and Adobe reader 8.0
Could you please suggest a way out.
Thank You

Hi,
Add a attribute of type WDY_BOOLEAN and bind it to the Adobe UI element.
And do the following in the wddomodifyview.
IF NOT first_time IS INITIAL.
data lo_nd_screen_valid type ref to if_wd_context_node.
data lo_el_screen_valid type ref to if_wd_context_element.
data ls_screen_valid type wd_this->element_screen_valid.
navigate from <CONTEXT> to <SCREEN_VALID> via lead selection
lo_nd_screen_valid = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_screen_valid ).
get element via lead selection
lo_el_screen_valid = lo_nd_screen_valid->get_element( ).
get single attribute
lo_el_screen_valid->set_attribute(
    exporting
      name = `ADOBEUIELEMENT`
      value =   u2018u2019 ).
ENDIF.

To print image in Non interactive form

I have a requirement where image file is attached to QM02 transaction, now i want to print the attached image on QM02 print output. I am planning to use Non interactive form method to print the form output.
Can anyone pls guide me how to insert/print image file which is attached at the transaction level.

Otto:
I followed the steps you have described in one of your earlier reply but I am unable to see the image on the non-interactive ADOBE form.
Here is what I did.
1) In the "Code Initialization" section of the form, I coded to get the SE78 stored image in to XSTRING field (by calling method cl_ssf_xsf_utilities=>get_bds_graphic_as_bmp)
2) I created the image field and bound it to the XSTRING field derived in step 1. And I check marked "embed image" in layout of the image field.
I also followed some other threads on this forum and tried to create a graphic node with a global field of mime type "BMP" and bound my XSTRING data onto it but to no avail.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Problem when generating an non-interactive form in Web Dynpro java.

Hi,
I'm trying to create a PDFDocument using a creation context in java. Everything works fine when the Interactive property of the creation context is set to true. When I change it to false however, the Web dynpro application hangs and eventually throws the following exception:
java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out
   at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(Native Method)
   at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:129)
   at java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill(BufferedInputStream.java:183)
   at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(BufferedInputStream.java:201)
   at com.sap.engine.services.webservices.jaxm.soap.HTTPSocket.readLine(HTTPSocket.java:806)
I'm wondering why this exception occurs when i'm generating a non interactive form and never appears when i'm generating a form with the Interactive property set to true.
Any ideas?
Edited by: Arjan Nieuwenhuizen on Feb 25, 2008 3:24 PM

Yeah I know changing the form properties will solve my problem, but since i'm developing a training for Interactive Forms in Web Dynpro Java, I wanted to figure out why the (static / non-interactive) combination didn't work, turned out to be a template problem, which i still didn't figure out, except the fact that having flowed content on your template is not the problem.
My ideas about your question:
When we have the layout of an Interactive Form, its clear if it's meant to be static or dynamic, we don't know however, if it's interactive or non-interactive.
I don't think we can judge a layout to have an Interactive or non-interactive purpose, can depend on the situation in which the same form is shown/used:
- One moment it can be interactive, e.g. user is filling in the form, can enter data etc.
- Next moment it can be non-interactive, e.g. form is shown to another user.
So it's more the scenario/situation that determines if the form is interactive or non-interactive.

How to use two RFC models in one Data Source for a Interactive Form UI Elem

Hi
I want to use two RFC models (two Function Modules from a SAP Backend system) in one context node of a View Controller in order to pass it as the data source to a Interactive Form UI element. Can I use the data binding mechanism directly or have I to copy the data into a Value Node within the view controller.
Thanks for helping
René Morel
SAP (Schweiz) AG

Rene,
You can create a local context node in component controller and copy the data from both the RFC's to this node, then bind it to the view controller. Then you can make this view context node as the datasource of the interactive form.

Anand

Date Format Issue with Interactive Form

Hi, here is the scenario:
-We just upgraded to SP17 from SP15
-I'm using Livecycle Designer 8.0
When we were on SP15, this was not an issue. I was wondering if anyone encountered this problem and if so, if there is a workaround?
I create an interactive form to start a guided procedure process. Im passing the data from my desktop Interactive form to another callable object in GP to send an email with the PDF attached. This all works correclty.
My date/time fields are set to type DATE with a display pattern of YYYY-MM-DD. When I create the form in the GP administrator to my desktop and open the PDF, the date format is correct. However, when I submit the form to start the process, the incomming date fields to be mapped to my second Callable Object have change in format from "2009-02-18" to "Wed Feb 18 00:00:00 EST 2009".
This is true in the new form I receive via email, and also in NWA->monitoring->guided procedures when I check the instances. The input mapping is already set to the false formatting.
When I open the form from the second callable object with the incorrect date format (in designer), the date's display patterns are set to YYYY-MM-DD but are not being displayed as such.
New discovery....I tried to create a Business Logic callable object and format the date. I created a string input and date output and mapped them accordingly. When I perform a "TEST" from the design time and use the input "Wed Feb 18 00:00:00 EST 2009", the string is automatically converted to 18/02/2009 in the output, which is what I want to occur. The only problem is when I run the actual process, the same "Wed Feb 18 00:00:00 EST 2009" is being output instead of the 18/02/2009 in the TEST.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

This test program might help...

Bundling different (non-interactive) forms

Hi,
I want to bundle different non-interactive form. When I run the report FP_CHECK_BATCH_PDF_RETURN with the settings:
Bundle Mode = X
All Forms in One PDS = checked
i got the error message "Call contained error(s): ASSEMBLE (FP_JOB_OPEN)"
When I select Bundle Mode = M everything works fine. I tested the report on many different systems with different ADS versions, but the error was always the same. Can anyone tell my what the problem is?
Thx in advance!

Hi Markus,
the SAP Help explain exact your problem. I don't get into it. I tried it with release 7.31 and also with 7.02 a few weeks ago and everything worked fine. Just work through the help.
Here is a Wikipage which provides an example-coding:
How to assemble PDF form pages into one file - ABAP Development - SCN Wiki
I also got this link in my pocket,but you sound very familiar to the language)

Saving the interactive adobe for as readonly or non-interactive form

Hi,
I want to save the interactive form in the final submission as non ineractive or readonly.Though i could able to save the form as pdf but the form is editable.Can any one suggest solutions for this.
Thanks in advance.
Dev

hi,
that should be easy.
make a Context attribute <xxx> of type "boolean"
GOTO
interactive form->properties ->enabled
there instead of choosing "true" or "false", you can bind it to a context attribute.(click on ...)
By default make the context "true" so that it is enabled.
at some particular event when you want it to be disabled. set the bound context to "false".
this should help.

HI
You cannot just simply convert one string to xstring and then set it in pdfsource to get the pdf.
what is required is little bit lengthy than wht you are doing right now.
you need to use adobe live cycle designer to design the form first and bound the layout UIs there to the context and then
when the pdf wll be generated it will have the data.
1. Go to transaction SFP ad create one interface there with some parameter say data.
2. create a form based on this interface.
3. in the template source property of the UI give the form you have created it will automatically create context for the import
parameter that you have given in the interface.
4. now you need to double click on the interactive form UI to open Adobe live cycle designer to design the layout of the form to
display the data that you will get form the import parameter.
5. pass the required data to the context which is created as the import parameter
these are the steps required to create a PDF form having the data passed by you from the programm dynamically.
here is a link for a demo tutorial.

Rendering a non-interactive form

How do we use scripting in Live Cycle Designer to render a non-interactive pdf. Data is populating the form using xml. Thanks and help will be appreciated

Couple of issues that you should know before proceeding.
1. To communicate with a web service from the form using Reader you will need to Reader Extend the form using Reader Extensions Server and not Acrobat. Acrobat does not turn that right on. Note that if you intend to use Acrobat this is not an issue.
2. There is no means of getting the PDF form while it is running into the context of a SOAP message. There is no programmatic way to put the PDF into the payload from the form. I can get the data but not the form.
3. Once the data is populated into the form we could change all of the fields to Read Only ...thereby achieving the flattening that you require.
4. The web service will not be able to save or print locally through the client. The client will have to do that . The client being Reader or Acrobat.

Hi Kavita,
The templateSource's value should be created automatically as <ViewName>_<UIname>.xdp and this file could be found under the directory
src/configuration/Components/<your_component>
What's your version of NWDS?
