Formcalc script help!

My timesheet is a form created in livecycle es and the form looks similar to the one below my problem is in formcalc I cant figure out a way to calculate the time correctly for me what I want it to do is if I enter 12 in the sunday block 10 should then be added to straight time and 2 should be added to overtime and then if I add 12 in the monday block Straight time shoud then be 20 and overtime would then be 4 and it would continue to add the overtime of any value over 10 entered in any of the other blocks as well. and
basically any day worked over 10 is overtime and the rest is straight time even I did not work a full 40 any help would be appreciated Thanks!
sun

tue
wed

straight time
overtime

I don't know if this helps but here is the script I wrote and it will work in wksunhrs1 if i put in 12 it puts 10 in wktlst1 and 2 in wktlrh1 but if I put 12 in the rest of the objects like wtlmonhrs it does not change wktlrh1 or wkmonhrs1 I need it to keep adding what it moves to wktlrh1 and wktlrh1 but it wont. any information would be very helpful Thanks!
topmostSubform.Page1.WKTLST1::calculate - (FormCalc, client)
var
wktlst1 = WKSUNHRS1+WKMONHRS1+WKTUEHRS1+WKWEDHRS1+WKTHUHRS1+WKFRIHRS1
if (WKSUNHRS1 > 10) then
WKTLST1= 10 WKTLRH1= WKSUNHRS1 - 10endif
if (WKMONHRS1 > 10) then
WKTLST1= 10 WKTLRH1= WKMONHRS1 - 10endif
if (WKTUEHRS1 > 10) then
WKTLST1= 10 WKTLRH1=WKTUEHRS1 - 10endif

Need help with a FormCalc scripting

I am new to FormCalc and need some help. I am creating an interactive PDF in which I need a FormCalc script code for the following situation. I need to have a check box initate a script in another field. For example; I have one numeric field for quanity ordered (user input) and a check box for an optional add-on. Once the check box for the add-on is selected; I need a third field to reflect the price of the add-on * the numeric value in the quanity field.
ProductPrice     Product Quanity          Add-On                        Total Cost
Pd1                    2                              ($300) check box            Product Price * Product Quanity + Add-On Price (if clicked) * Product Quanity
Can anyone help?

That was helpful but I still can't see to get it work. In the form I am creating The field that needs to autocalc. is to be triggered by the user clicking an add-on box. I have the add-on checkbox values set as 1=check and 0=unchecked. The idea is that when the that box is checked, the "ItemTotal" field to be calculated will be triggered to then take the Quanity field and mulitply by 300. Below is the script I tried to use and the error message returned when the Add-on box is checked.
if (Add-onBoxName == 1) then
     Quantity * 300
Error message in Adobe Reader when box is checked:
Script failed (language is formcalc, context is xfa[0].form[0].topmostSubform[0].Page2[0].Add-onCheckBox[0])
script=if (Add-onCheckBox = = 1) then
ItemTotal = Quantity * 300
Error: syntax error near token '300' on line 4, column 0.

Hiding Pages in ADOBE form using formcalc scripting.

Hi Experts,
I am new to ADOBE form and currently working on invoice print output. (NOT an Interactive adobe form)
My requirement is
i wanted to print one main page and 5 different annexures(anexures are having different layouts so is in diff forms and contained in diff pages)
Deppending on 'Oreder reason' (made as global variable) , i need to select appropriate annexure and print
main page and any one of the annexure.
so i should hide all other annexure, to achive this i used formcalc scripting.
i tried hiding annexure 2 by following code,
data.Annexure2::ready:form - (FormCalc, client)
if ( data.G_F_ORDER_REASON.rawValue == "ANX" )
then $.presence = "hidden"
endif
i have passed value 'ANX' to this , i could see the value of order reason printed on page Annexure2 but it is not executing (getting in to if condition) condition and not hiding the page ...
Experts please help me...
this way i have to hide 4 other annexures...please help me or give me some other option to achive this.
thanks and regards

coding Formcalc is a pain.
But you're doing the right thing by passing in a variable and hiding based on the content of it.
Here's an example of where I'm hiding a subform on a page.
if ( main_sf2.charter_only.CHARTER_DOC.rawValue eq "X" ) then
main_sf2.pts_sf.presence = "visible"
else
main_sf2.pts_sf.presence = "hidden"
endif
Looks like your code is similar - try changing
( data.G_F_ORDER_REASON.rawValue == "ANX" ) to
( data.G_F_ORDER_REASON.rawValue eq "ANX" )
or instead of $.presence = "hidden" fully qualify the name of your page to data.Annexure2.presence = "hidden"

Using context variable in formcalc scripting language.

Hi all,
I wanted to know if it is possible to use context variables in formcalc. I wanted to use those variables in "if else" condition in formcalc scripting language. Please post the sample code also as i am new to adobe forms.
Regards,
Vinod

Hi ,
Each variable define in the context can be used on the layout of the form and/or in script linked to fields.
This can be done in formcalc or in javascript language , without any problem . You have only to acess the correct variable in the script.
For getting variable in a script you must define the complete name of the variable, example "Myform.Header.Data.Myvariable" get access to variable MyVariable define in the context under nodes Header/Data .
Hope it's help you
regards.

Error in FormCalc Script of Adobe Interactive Forms

Hi,
We created certain Custom I.S.R. Scenarios and attached them to Workflows. So in these regards, we had already created the needed forms in Adobe Interactive Forms Transaction(SFP) and launched the Scenario successfully in Enterprise Portal.
But we have a couple of requirements like during Create mode of the form, I should be able to modify certain contents of the form, and during the Change mode of the form, I should be able to modify certain other fields of the form. So I had opted for FormCalc Scripting in these regards.
I used the following code...
if($record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_MODE == "CHANGE")
then
 this.access = "readOnly"
else
 this.access = ""
endif
Well, I used the same script in two of my forms. For one form, it's working very perfect. But for other form, it's giving the following error..
Error : accessor '$record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_MODE' is unknown.
I am very much mazed, why the same code behaves in 2 ways in two different forms.
So can anyone help me in these regards?
Regards,
Raja Sekhar

Hi,
I solved the problem by applying alternate solution.
I used Java Script instead of FormCalc Script.
That cleared my errors.

FormCalc script language for calculating PV

Greetings,
I need to calculate a Present Value (PV) in a table for rent. I can not (after many, many tries) come up with the formcalc script language that mirrors the Excel formula my boss has used in a spreadsheet.
I know the 'formula' is PV(n1, n2, n3), but that is apparently NOT what needs to be written as the script. Do I use ".rawValue" in writing this out? Do I use the ctrl+applicable cell in choosing a segment?
My first example of needing to calculate this is having a total amount for a year's rent, a discount rate of [user entered, example would be 5%], and a period of the term year minus 1 (so year 1 would be 0 or not used; year 2 would be 1, year 3 would be 2). This is what the Excel formula relates to, although it uses a negative (minus) in front of the year's rent amount.
Writing PV(yramount, discountrate, yr-1) doesn't do anything to create the answer.
Do I write ... $.rawValue = PV(yramount.rawValue, discountrate.rawValue, yr-1.rawValue) or ....
I can't figure it out (and I've tried this formula every way I can imagine and I'm getting nowhere).
I am also going to be calculating the Present Value of Total Lease Obligations each year (which is another oddity of discountrate, yr-1, negative TotalLeaseobligation).
Once I get 'row 1' calculating, the following rows will be added based on the number of term years, and the calculating will include percentage increases over the prior year along the way. I can't wait :-O
If someone could please help me crack the "actually USING in a form the formula for Present Value)", I will be so very grateful. It is decidedly beyond my sub-novice attempts.
Thank you!
Shu

Oh, my, thank you so much! It is truly baffling to me. I’ve attached my efforts for what it’s worth. I try to explain more below.
I was basing my ‘assumption’ on this ‘formcalc information’ – but obviously I couldn’t do anything with it as it is too cryptic for a beginner.
Here is the Excel formula used in the current spreadsheet:
= PV($B$22,B$26,,-C28
Where B22 is the Discount rate (e.g. 5%)
B26 is a number representing the year number of the prior year in the Term (e.g., the first year pulls a blank cell, the 2nd year pulls “1”, the 3rd year pulls “2”)
C28 is the Base Rent amount for the year being calculated, but shown as a negative (?) [That number is calculated as a $/square foot * number of square feet]
In my LCD form, I’m calculating in a table in which there is a header row, a footer row, currently 2 body rows, and I’m trying to get all the values to calculate based on information “provided above” in the form. The first challenge is the first row and I’ve gotten everything to ‘work’ except the “Total Base Rent(PV)” and the “Total Lease Obligation(PV)” the 3rd PV value is an arithmetic calculation between these results.
Current Row 1 formulas:
Base Rent: $.rawValue = NF3BaseRentPersf.rawValue * NF1SquareFootage.rawValue
TI Costs: $.rawValue = NF14AnnDebtServTotal.rawValue
Furniture Fixtures Equipment: $.rawValue = NF14FFETotal.rawValue
Move Costs: $.rawValue = NF14MoveCostsTotal.rawValue
Total Lease Obligations: $.rawValue = Cell2.rawValue + Cell3.rawValue + Cell4.rawValue + Cell5.rawValue
Common Area Costs: $.rawValue = NF4OpExPersf.rawValue * NF1SquareFootage.rawValue
Utilities: $.rawValue = NF5UtilPersf.rawValue * NF1SquareFootage.rawValue
Other Expenses: $.rawValue = NF6OtherPersf.rawValue * NF1SquareFootage.rawValue
Total Operating Expenses: $.rawValue = Cell7.rawValue + Cell8.rawValue + Cell9.rawValue
TOTAL Estimated Costs: $.rawValue = Cell6.rawValue + Cell10.rawValue
Total Base Rent (PV): ______________________?
Total TI & Other Costs (PV): $.rawValue = Cell14.rawValue - Cell12.rawValue
Total Lease Obligation (PV): _______________________ ? (THIS -> doesn't work: $.rawValue = PV(NF15DiscountRate.rawValue,, -Cell6.rawValue)
I'm sorry for being so naive with all this. We are gobsmacked (in a great way) with the possibilities of LCD-- IF I can just get the hang of this stuff.
Here's the hierarchy for the table:
and these are related hierarchy references (you can tell I haven't quite gotten the naming of objects down very well).
AND my NEXT challenges: I am trying to make this a ?repeating row table? And will attempt to add an 'add row' button that will allow the addition of a row reflecting the number of years in the proposed term (from 1-10, usually). So I need the amount to sum in the footer as well as the couple of sums within each row. Starting with the 2nd year, the Base Rent and Operating Expenses amounts will be a factor of the prior year's amount * the applicable Escalation % (Base Rent Escalation or Estimated Annual Expenses Escalation) -- which is why I figured I had to go on and include the 2nd row to put those formulas therein. I am ASSUMING that when I enerate subsequent rows with the "Add Row" button (crossing fingers!) that the formulas will duplicate and the correct amounts will be reflected, including the right totals -- although for a 1-year term I'll need to figure out how to 'delete row' the 2nd row so the totals aren't ka-flooey.
I am extremely grateful for your help in any way you can share. This is a lot of fun -- but I just don't speak the LCD language yet. Thus I flounder.
Appreciatively,
Shu
p.s. I am not sure how to provide a copy of my actual form-in-progress. Much of what I'd written in reply was stripped out so I've come back in to edit and add what I'm able.Thanks again!

FormCalc/Script query?

Start Time
End Time
Mode of Transport
Journey Time
HH:MM
HH:MM
Drop Down List
Auto calculated on start/end times
Total Time Traveling
Sum of Journey Times
Mode of Transport
Total Time Journey Time
Drop Down List
I have created an interactive form which requires members of the general public to fill out a travel diary. I have got all the calculations to work except the bottom table. I'm trying to figure out which formcalc scripts to use to give a total time for each mode of transport, based on the users choice. For example, if the user want's to see how many mins they have cycled this week, they pick cycling from the drop down list on the bottom table and then in the total journey time it tells them how many mins they have cycled that week.

Hi,
I am all for learning and hope that this returned form helps. But a little annoyed that Managers do not "appear" be place a value on it.
https://acrobat.com/#d=HJIBeWz3ZjvcBZjsSW-Vrw
I have sorted out the first two pages, in how I believe it would be best to approach the problem:
I have deleted the rows and just kept one row which is repeatable (see Object > Binding palette). This is easier to maintain, as all of the script is in one row. The row is then set to have a minimum of 10 occurrences.
I have also included tool tips in the fields for accessibility. Local Authority and all.
You should name objects based on their role. This makes it much easier to script against. See here: http://assure.ly/mxZO9T.
I have inserted a page and table for the summary. I have taken an approach where all of the categories would be visible and the corresponding times. I have also includes a bar chart. You could colour each bar based on the greenness of the mode of transport.
You need to look at the script in the summary times. This loops through the first two pages AND loops through each of the 10 rows in each of these tables.
Looping script for anyone interested:
// Set up some variables
var vTime = 0;
var currentRow;
// Calculate a summary for car
for (var i=3; i<5; i++) // work through the first two pages
 for (var j=0; j<10; j++) // work through the ten rows in each page
 currentRow = xfa.resolveNode("Page" + i + ".Table1.Row1[" + j + "]");
 if (currentRow.modeTransport.rawValue == "Car")
 vTime = vTime + currentRow.journeyTime.rawValue;
// Set summary journey time
this.rawValue = vTime / 60;
Hopefully your manager will see value!

FormCalc Script problem

Hi,
We have a couple of problems with FormCalc Script.
We have different RADIO BUTTON Groups which needs to be ENABLED during CREATE mode and needs to be disabled in other modes.
So, we have attached a FormCalc Script as shown below.
if($record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_MODE == "CREATE")
then
this.access = ""
else
this.access = "readOnly"
endif
And when we test our Adobe Form our SCRIPT is working only for one RADIOBUTTON group. But it is not working for other RADIOBUTTON groups.
I dont understand why it is behaving this way.
I have attached the same coding for all the groups in the same event - INITIALIZE. Still I am getting this problem.
Can anyone help me out.
Regards,
Raja Sekhar

Hi Juergen,
Thanks for the patient reply.
Sorry,I lost my patientence with these RADIOBUTTONS Problem. That's why I am not able to reply you promptly.
Anyhow's I checked the below mentioned stuff and here are my observations.
1) I have added the MESSAGE BOX and checked the ISR_MODE value and this.access value also. During the creation of form ISR_MODE value is CREATE and this.access is OPEN.
And during the Approval at first level supervisor, the value of ISR_MODE is CHANGE and this.access is readOnly.
The values are getting populated as expected.
2)Coming to the SCRIPT INTERFERENCE, this is the only EVENT defined for this field and there is no script defined at the FORM LEVEL.

Raja Sekhar

Regarding FormCalc Scripting for Adobe Print Forms

Hi Friends
I am working on Adobe Print Forms.
I wish to write some FormCalc Scripting in form on date field.
I want to know the meaning for the below scripring :
$.format.picture = DateFmt(2, $.locale);
$.ui.picture = DateFmt(2, $.locale);
$.assist.toolTip.oneOfChild.value = LocalDateFmt(2, $.locale);
Can anyone please explain me the above scripting in detail.
Points are assured for useful answers.
Regards,
Sree

Hi Susy,
This is a problem with the transaction SPF. The Adobe form painter i.e. SPF transaction is still not very stable.
I had faced the same issue when I was working with SAP labs for developing the SAP standard reports.
Hope this problem is resolved in future versions. But currently there is no solution as such to it.
I think its better that you create the form yourself rather than uploading the PDF document.

Adobe Forms - FormCalc Scripting Question for Image Control

Hi All,
I have three images on my master page. I have a hidden text field. Based on a certain value within this text field I need to turn off Imagefield B and ImageField C and Leave ImageField A visible.
I know this can be done via FormCalc scripting.
My Questions:
Which event shoudl I put the script in? I was thinking the textfield initialize event.
What would be the EXACT syntax to turn turn image fields on or off?
Please inform if know.
Regards,
Salil

I solved it now, just changing the FormCalc expression.
Instead of using the expression:
this.value.image.href = xfa.resolveNode(this.value.image.href).value;
I used this:
this.value.image.href = xfa.record.Images.URL;
The URL value of Image Field, in this case is:
$record.Images[*].URL
And, to finish, I needed to add a Text Field bounded to $record.Imagens[*].URL, case else the image doesn't appear.
That's it!

FormCalc script is not executed

Hi everybody,
I've developped a Pdf forms with FormCalc Script.
This script does works in the preview designer of SFP transaction but when i try to run the pdf forms through a specific program, the script is not executed.
Do you have any idea ?
The pdf is a ZCI layout.
My SAP platform is ECC 6.0

Brice,
What is the type of form you are developing ? Interactive or Print.
My guess you be creating a Print form where dynamic scripting does not work.
Alternatively put following line of code in the script to see if the control is transferred to your event or not.
$host.messageBox("Inside event")

Gallery script help, please

Gallery script help, please
Hello,
I'm new to actionscript in general, I do know a little...
I foung a gallery script, modified many things, the images
open fine, everything is working, but here's the thing:
the gallery is in 3 sections, red, blue and yellow.
I would like to know how, what, and where to put a script so
that if a "the small red image #1" is clicked, I can load any sort
of a movie on top of the "the BIG red image #1" or #2 or 3 and so
on...same goes for the blue and yellow...
If I figured things correctly on my own...the small thumbnail
images of the gallery are not buttons, that's why I can't attach a
movie (let's say) to them...but it is all written in script, using
the horizontal and vertical position of the mouse to open the large
images of the gallery...
So, I don't know how to figure things out, to attach a
specific movie to a specific thumbnail...
p.s.: I think the script that controls the gallery is in
symbol 120
I really would appreciate the help
Merry Christmas in advance to everyone

firefox not responding, freezes, sometimes responds after a few minutes, other times a pop-up appears asking if I want to stop script - help please

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Hi,
You have to add the attribute to each item props, try this:
customerExitBeforeIpcItemsCreate(ItemPriceRequest[] iR, IPCItemProperties[] itemProps) {
for (int i = 0; i < itemProps.length; i++) {
 Map theMap = itemProps.getItemAttributes();
 theMap.put(("ZZITM_USAGE", "Z010");
 itemProps.setItemAttributes(theMap);

Error in simple FormCalc Script

Hi
The following script in a checkbox change event returns the error below:
Z_Lso_BookingData.#subform[0].Subform6.CheckBox1::change - (FormCalc, client) -
if ( $.value == " 0" ) then
Subform2.presence = "invisible"
else
Subform2.presence = "visible"
endif
Error: invalid property get operation; value doesn't have default property.
Any suggestions what could be wrong? Thanks for responding.
René Morel

Hi,
If I get your problem then you are trying to make the check box visible and invisible based on some parameter.am I right then I would like to suggest to follow the following code in the script editor:
And if you want to make some text hidden/invisible based on some RFC parameter then try out this code:
Else if you are comparing on the basis that if the parameter returned is null then this would work.
In the script Editor try this script on the field in with the following
Show: initialize
Language: formcalc.
Run at: Client
If ( $.isNull ) then
$.presence = "hidden"
endif
Or try out this code
Write this code on superior subform.
If ( $.<FIELD>.isNull ) then
$.presence = "hidden"
endif
Provided the subform should be in flowcontent.
If you still see any problems let me know if you require any further help.
Thanks,
kris
