Export Print layout to other SAP server

Hi,
I'm facing problem of export print layouts from SAP B1 2007 A to SAP B1 2007 B.
I tried with the copy express but it comes up with an error telling that the export is fail because 2 databases are in different version.
It is unpractical and time wasting to redesign the same print layout to the new SAP server.
Is there any way to solve this?
Thanks.

It may be worth trying using copy & paste? I'm not sure how different the structures are between the two localisations, and there will need to be a lot of remapping done.
If the layout is not too complex it is probably quicker to modify the system layout & recreate from scratch

Deployment : Exporting and importing a ABAP code to other SAP Server

Hello Expert,
I am very new to SAP ABAP. My query is , If we write a code in user exit on one SAP server and if we need to deploy the same on other SAP server who are not tightly coupled with each other , How should we do??
Is there any way to export and import the code?? How do we deliver the code if anyone wants that code? Is there any way to deliver the code other than manual copy and paste??
Any idea??
Thanks,

How consume a RFC, BAPI, Group of Functions or program of other SAP server

I have a problem.
I'm working with 2 server
1. SAP Banking
2. SAP ECC
I did some programs, ABAP proxy, function on SAP Banking. But I have a problem. I process data information on ABAP Proxy about Collaterals objects , but in a subprocess I need create documents on SAP ECC, but I don't have any idea about consume a program, or functions, or RFC of other servers
**NOTE:
On the standard transacction of Collaterals Objects, when the user process this seccion of documents, the transacction opens a transaccion of SAP ECC to create this objects.

It sounds like you need to do this in the background to match what you see happening in the foreground? You need to find out what the RFC-enabled functions are that you need to call and then just call them. See the help files on functions for more info. If there aren't any functions available, then you can certainly wrap any transaction or program in a custom function, RFC-enable it, and then call it directly or as a web service. You must already have an ABAP destination available if you can currently make a dialog call from one system to the other.

Down payment document differs from print layout since SBO 2007A PL45

Since upgrade from PL42 to PL45, we have ceveral problems.
- Print Layout wrong:
1. We have a sales order with 7 positions, 2 of these 7 positions are already delivered and paid.
Based on the sales order, we post a down payment invoice that has the correct 5 positions from the sales order. When selecting print preview (it doesn't matter, if it is a user defined print layout or a SAP standard layout), we get all the 7 positions that are in the sales order.
2. Also down payment invoice: We have one position with 3 items, the document shows the unit price correct and also the price for the position (price per unit x3) correct. The print layout only shows unit prices.
3. sales order has another currency rate then the down payment and the following invoice, as they will not be posted the same date. The documents show everything correct, but the print layout only shows the currency rate from the sales order (also in the following documents like DP invoice and final invoice).
- a lot of dump files....
Does somebody knows a solution for these problems or does somebody knows, if they will be solved in the PL46 or 47?
Thanks a lot.
Katrin

Hi katrin,

Rounding up values in Print Layout Designer

The customer has a database field in print layout designer and this is bringing back a value such as 0.25. They would like to create another field which shows this value rounded up to the nearest whole number, ie in the case of 0.25 they would like to see 1.
They have created a formulae field and used the round function, however this rounds the value down to the nearest whole number as per the general rounding rule i.e. round it down if it is below .5 and up to the nearest whole number when it is above .5
Is there anyway to achieve this using Print Layout Designer in SAP Business One 2007 A?

Hi Samantha,
Apologies for the delay.
Yes, its possible to do this. Firstly, you will need to use the fields from my earlier post. However you will also need to add some more formula fields
The first formula field will work out what the numbers are to the right of the decimal point:
DecimalRight(Field_101)
Field_101 in your case will be the field ID for the quantity field and the field ID for the above formula field will be Field_102.
The second formula field will work out if the quantity is a whole number, here the field id will be Field_103:
Field_102==' '
The third formula field will work out if the quantity is not a whole number, here the field id will be Field_104:
Field_102!=' '
You can now use the Link To functionality to link the original quantity rounded field to Field_103 and you can link the quantity plus 0.5 rounded field to Field_104.
Kind regards,
Adrian

Export a print layout to another company

Is it possible to export a print layout from one company to another company.
Regards,
Henrik

Hi Henrik,
Yes, you can export the layout definition from one database to another. It is one of the rare occasions where SAP allow the transfer of data using SQL Tools. You must be transferring from the same version and localisation of SBO.
See SAP Note 600813 for full details of how to do it. This can be found here:
https://websmp103.sap-ag.de/~form/handler?_APP=01100107900000000342&_EVENT=DISPL_TXT&_NNUM=600813&_NLANG=E
Basically, you copy all the relevant lines from the RDOC and RITM tables using the DocCode as a filter.
Also, I think I read somewhere that the new Copy Express add-on can automate this process but I've never checked.
Hope this helps,
Owen

SAP Script Check printing Layout, Line Items to display twice in First Page

Hi All,
This requirement is for US check printing Layout.
My Requirement is to display Items twice on the first page.
Eg : Main Window has 10 Items, I need to display all the Items at the bottom in another window at the bottom.
I can't create 2 Main windows in the first page, as the data from the Main window 1 overflows to Main window 2 in the first page.
I copied print program RFFOUS_C into a Z-version and try to implement the logic, however unable to print the line items in the bottom window.
Kindly give your valuable Inputs.
Thanks
Vinayak

Hi
I had the same request for a check form in Canada. I solved it by writing the line item output into variables and print these variables in a second window. It was ~10 hours of effort, not a real nice technical solution but it worked.
If you require I can send you a PDF of the sap script form definition. You can contact me at [email protected] Answers can take 1 week or more.
Best regards

Edit Print Layout Crashing SAP 2007

Good Day,
I have a client that when trying to edit a layout it is causing SAP to crash.
It is the Goods Receipt PO layout, he opens the GRPO, clicks the pencil, then when trying to edit the layout, SAP just crashes with no error messages and no log files.
All other layouts are able to open and be edited.
Its just this specific layout that it is happening on, it is not a system print layout.
Thanks
Regards
Dario

The explanation would be:
The problem could be due to many reasons. For example:
- If they selected a table by using Alt+Click in old PLD, that is not supported by SAP.
- Some other hidden problems may not be found from old version but it can be caught in new version etc.

How to print double sided for SAP without exporting

Hi Friends,
Could you explain me that how to print double sided for SAP without exporting? Thanx.

Hi,
As per your query this is printer facility not to SAP. You have to define your printer in double printing by default and get all the printout both side from any software like SAP,Excel,Word etc.

Print Layout Designer - inconsistent output

Hi,
We have received consistent compaint from our client that the output of Print Layout Designer are inconsistent.
Eg: The same PLD template is used for An invoice print out from 2 different workstation. However, workstation A display the format properly, workstation B will have missing lines between boxes or the alignment is not displayed properly.
We have also recently encountered the problem that our client export the invoice to Acrobat and then print it. However, it displays properly for workstation with Acrobat version 8, 9, but missing lines for version 7.
Another scenario could be the form is displayed properly on the screen, but the physical print out to a printer is not consistent.
We really appreciate some share of thoughts here. Is switching to other report writer, eg: Crystal Report, the only option?
Edited by: Shwu Hua Gan on Aug 10, 2008 2:57 AM

Gordon,
Thanks for replying.
This is what happen to our client.
The font size of the customised PLD SAP Invoice is size 5. In order to preview the layout, they have to preview in PDF, once they are happy with the details and then print.
In some workstations, there are Adobe Reader version 8 or 9. In a couple of workstations, there are Adobe Acrobat version 9.
Let's say, there are 2 fields with the following properties:
Field A, Left = 0, Width = 10.
Field B, Left = 10, Width = 10.
Adobe Acrobat version 9 display the border of the field properly. However, those with Adobe Reader 8 / 9 will see gaps between fields.
If we change them as follows the field the gap;
Field A, Left = 0, Width = 10.
Field B, Left = 9, Width = 11,
Then those with Adobe Acrobat version 9 is missing the border for because Field A overlaps with Field B. But Adobe Reader 8/9 will print fine. It also works fine if user click 'Print Preview' as normal and then click 'Print'
Does anyone knows whether this inconsistencies is caused by
- printer drivers; or
- Adobe; or
- SAP Business One.

Error With Export/Print from Crystal Report Viewer

Hello there,
I've searched through the web and SAP discussion boards with not much luck with this issue.
After working through this for some days now I've decided to look here for help.
Environment:
I have created a web Crystal Report viewer application(Developed with SBOP BI Platform 4.0 SP06 .NET SDK Runtime) that communicates with a managed Cyrstal Server 2011 SP4 (Product 14.0)
I am able to connect and authenticate with the server, retrieve a token for communication and display reports in the Crystal report Viewer successfully.
Problem:
When I attempt to export, I receive the prompt to select format and pages.
When I click export after selections most times I receive an error with the text
Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.PropertyBag'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{74EEBC42-6C5D-11D3-9172-00902741EE7C}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).
Other times the page simply refreshes on export.
When I click to print, no print dialog is displayed the page always refreshes and no error is displayed.
No Print or Export document is ever created.
As many print/export issues seems to be related, I'm guessing this two issues are as well.
Notes:
I am utilizing the ReportClientDocument model
I am storing this in session to use as the crystal report viewer report source on postbacks
I am assigning a subset of export formats to the crystal report viewer
I am setting particular parameters as well on the report source
At this point I would appreciate every assistance I may receive on this issue

Thanks Don for your response,
I'm new to the SCN spaces and my content has been moved a couple of times already.
In response to your questions
The runtime is installed on the web application server, if by that you mean the machine hosting the created .NET SDK application.
My question was whether it was also required on the Crystal Server 2011 (I.E. the main enterprise server with CMS and Report management and I guess RAS and all that). I figured this would remain untouched and queries would simply be made against it to retrieve/view reports e.t.c
If install of the SDK on Crystal Server 2011 is indeed required should I expect any interruption to any of the core services after a restart. I.E. I'm hoping that none of the SDK objects would interfere with the existing server objects (in SAP Business Objects)Reason I ask is I note that much of the SDK install directories are similar to the existing Crystal Enterprise Server 2011 (Product 14.0.0)
Is this temp folder to be manually created/configured or is it created by the application automatically to perform tasks. Or are you referring to the default C:\Windows\Temp directory and so saying that the application would try to use this for print and export tasks?Once I'm sure which I'd give the app pool user permission
Printing is to be client side but I figured by default (with the Crystal Report Viewer) it would simply pool and print from the user's printer. This is how it works with the previously used URL reporting approach (viewrpt.cwr). Therefore a user can print the document from wherever they are with their own printer.We don't intend on printing from the server machine, but are you suggesting that a printer must be installed on server (which one web or enterprise server) for any client side printing to work.
App pool is running in 32 bit mode
Initially didn't get anything useful from fiddler but I'd try and look closer on your suggestion.
It's also possible that some of my questions are a misunderstanding of APP vs RAS vs WEB, so please feel free to clarify. Currently I see the Web server as simply the created .NET SDK Application and RAS (Crystal Server 2011 e.t.c) as the existing fully established Application server which I simply pool for information.
Thank you for your patience and advice,
