FORMS 6I SAMPLE SPECIFICATION

Working in Forms 6i Client/Server
I work as part of a very small development team. Most of our program specs evolve from informal discussions, a few notes and eventually, progression onto the back of a postage stamp!
We have tried to develop a more formal approach to writing specs but are desperate for some advice and any actual form spec examples anyone could offer us!
Looking forward to hearing from you all very soon!!

you may refer the book 'form and report advanced features', which gave out some good points on it.

Cycle Count Entries Form not showing specific employee name in "Counted By" LOV List

Cycle Count Entries Form not showing specific employee name in "Counted By" LOV List.But the Employee is active . Is there any setup for this activity?

Hi,
This is because the query is excluding the current site you are trying to modify since it is actually in the report.
You can include in your query:
or site_id = :Pxx_SITE_ID
Where Pxx_SITE_ID is the item holding the site_id value and xx is your page number.
Thank you,
Erick

IE11 can't post form data to specific frame or window dialog opened via window.open()

Hello,
Form POST targeting to specific frame or dialog popped up via window.open() no longer works in IE11.
It worked fine in IE10 and all previous versions of IE.
Please see screenshot attached with simple test that reproduces this problem.
Direct Link to screenshot:
http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/IE_11_widow_frame_targeting_BUG.jpg
Direct link to simple test page demonstrating this problem:
http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/page2.asp
Note: IE11 doesn't report any errors, doesn't complain about anything, even when debugged via F12 developer tools. The only thing it complained initially was missing doc type declaration on top of page, but even after adding doc type definition, problem still
persists, makes no difference.
I tested this on fresh install of Windows 2012R2 while testing our web application with the new IE11.
I believe doing this on Windows 8.1 with IE11 will result in same bug/problem.
Our web application uses a technique whereby it launches a popup window via call to window.open(), passing blank URL and specifying a name for the new window. It then does a from post targeting the name of new dialog.
In IE11 this functionality has been broken and no longer works.
Problem is that IE11, instead of posting form to the newly created dialog, it launches a new instance of IE and then loads the requested form in this new instance of IE, while the dialog launched via window.open() remains on screen and is empty. If user repeats
launching same form post request (via button click for example), IE 11 keeps creating new empty dialogs and new IE instance for every form post executed. This totally breaks our application because we use many so called "wizards" that encapsulate
specific functionality in separate web page launched in a popup window.
Another related problem is that if a dialog is launched with window.open(), the java script code in the dialog can not target the parent frame that opened the dialog anymore. In our application, when a dialog is closed, it typically needs to trigger a refresh
of a specific frame within the parent window (again targeted by name) to reflect saved/updated info that user entered in the popup dialog. The result is that we can't refresh the parent frame after the pop up dialog closes. Instead, IE11 launches
a new instance of IE (not just a tab, but a whole new instance) and loads the parent frame in it.
The problem seems to be caused by broken frame name targeting mechanism in IE11.
Note that we force IE to compatibility mode 5, but even without specifying any compatibility, the problem remains.
Typical java script to reproduce this is:
<input type="button" onClick="Popup(this.form);" name="btn2" value="Popup Dialog">
function Popup(f){
    window.open("","MyNewDialogName","width=200,height=150");
    f.action = "page3.asp";
    f.target = "MyNewDialogName";
    f.submit();
Expected: IE11 should correctly post form to and load targeted page in the newly popped up dialog, without opening new IE instance and new tab. Repeatedly posting form to existing popup window should reuse that window, not keep on launching more popup windows
and then more IE instances.
Steps to reproduce the problem (include URL if applicable):
URL with sample page: http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/page2.asp
1) Create page1.htm: <html><body>display "I'm in a popup window now ..."</body></html>
2) Create page2.htm with a button and onclick() event calling function to open dialog, and do form POST targeting new dialog calling page1.htm, like below.
<input type="button" onClick="Popup(this.form);" name="btn2" value="Popup Dialog"> function Popup(f){
    window.open("","MyNewDialogName","width=200,height=150");
    f.action = "page1.asp";
    f.target = "MyNewDialogName";
    f.submit();
3) Open IE11, navigate to page2.htm, click the "Popup Dialog" dialog button. IE 11 will popup the new dialog, but then it will also launch new instance of IE11 and display the page1.htm in it, instead of in the popup dialog.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Any insight or help is appreciated.
Regards
Peter

the default action of <input type="button" is submit. Note also that the default type of <button> elements is 'submit' also.
add a return false to the onclick inline event handler (which constructs the form submit attribues) to cancel the default form.submit behavior.
form elements have a target value with which you can specify the name window into which you want the form to open in.
<form action="process.aspx" target="popup">
you can use the window.open method with a query uri to achieve the same outcome.
window.open('process.aspx?s=search+term&foo=bar','popup',{features})
the outcomes of all scripted windows are affected by
your IE Popup blocker and tabbed browsing settings
which in turn is affected by your IE Security zone settings (for popup blocking handling)
and the settings of any third-party popup blocker you may have installed and enabled... it may not necessarily be visible on your browser toolbar.
The first step in troubleshooting web browser issues is to test in no-addons mode.
Use the Developer Tool to find out what documentMode the test page is opening in on your system. On Modal/Modeless popup windows use the f12 key to display the Developer tool positioned on the contentWindow.
Use File>Properties to find out what IE Security zone it maps to... there is a security setting to prevent navigation into zones of lower integrity.

Dynamically copy a PDF form to a specific repository via a button

Hi,
Sorry in advance if this is a dumb issue for which there is an obvious solution, but since I'm not a developer I couldn't tell and my searches around the web haven't allowed me to solve this out.
As the web designer here, I've been asked to create a dynamic PDF that would include a form and a button that would export a copy of the completed form when clicked. The copy would need to be placed into a specific repository on a local server. I found out that is was possible to create a dynamic button in InDesign when creating a dynamic PDF form, but it seems that the native actions available for the buttons are quite simple, like switching to a page within the document or sending an email. I would need, with the help of my developer, collegue, to customise an action for a button so that it would act like mentionned here above. I thought it might involve some scripting within InDesign to customise the action. Am I right and what would be the best way to achieve this?
Thanks!

When the form I designed for some nurses is used, the information has to be copied and then pasted into a text editor program for a patient file. When I do a select all and copy, it only copies the fields, not the information entered by the nurses. Is there a way to allow all of the fields and text entered to be copied and then pasted in the editor program?

Reg 1099 forms for state specific

For 1099 forms in the HR module, in particular state specific forms, does SAP update the standard form every year if they change, or does a customer need to create a custom form and update the form themselves?

Hi Rama,
You will have to create the record for State Manually. Create the record for every State where your Retiree resides.
You can copy the layout of HR_F_1099R_TAPE and then create or add another record into it.

Acrobat x / Form / email a specific page range from a button

What is the simplest way to do the above?

Extract the page to a temporary file, submit it, close it.
This is not going to work, though, if the form is going to be used in
Reader.

Automatically sending forms to a specific email

Hi,
I am assuming there is already a way to do this. If i have created a form for online PDF. When a user has filled it in and they need to email it to me. Can i have specified automatically to recognise the form should be sent to my email address?
Thanks,
Al

When you create a form in FormsCentral you can set up the option to recieve email notifications (with the option to include the responses in the email). You can save/distribute the form as a PDF and when the user clicks the "Submit" button the data is collected in FormsCentral and the notification is sent to you.
If you wanted to have the actual PDF emailed to you that is not currently supported using the FormsCentral data collection PDF but you could create the form in FormsCentral and save a PDF that is not enabled to collect data (from the Design Tab clicking "File - Save as PDF form" will save a PDF without the Submit button) you could then modify the PDF in Acrobat adding your own Submit button that would email the PDF back to you.
Thanks,
Josh

Sample functional specifications - Equipment task list?

The earlier post of Teja provoked me to look into the other sample specifications provided in the ****************. The one I looked into is the equipment task list. I have a doubt here. I assume that the equipment is also a material. So why are equipments handled in a different way than to the other materials (using MM01/2 transactions)?
Raghu

Hi,
Please check the following information from SAP help portal:
Number Assignment for Equipment Task Lists and Functional Location Task Lists
Numbers for equipment and functional location task lists are assigned internally. When you have created an equipment or functional location task list, the system issues a message with the number it has assigned to the task list. The first task list you create for a specified piece of equipment or functional location will be identified by a group number and a counter number. Further task lists for the same piece of equipment or functional location will simply be identified by a counter number within the group.
Best regards,
Stephen
