Hi All,
Can anybody help how to how to hide/show attributes in adobe interactive forms?

In data view there are 2 attributes a1,a2. Currently i am showing both the attributes in the form. But only that attribute will be shown which will contain data, other will remain invisible. how to do it?
Thanks in advance,

hi,
you can go for FormCalc Script in Script Editor.
In the initialise event of both the fields , write this Script :
if (HasValue($)) then
$.presence = "Visible"
else
$.presence = "Hidden"
endif
This will hide your fields with no data.

  • How to hide a fieldsuFF08elementsuFF09 in the Adobe Interactive form ?....urgent...

    Hi Experts,
    I'm working on Adobe Interactive form developed in WDP ABAP.( I have successfully config the ADS in my server.)
    Action:
    1. Create two view -
    first_view and second_view in the WDP ABAP..
    2. In the first_view, there are a input field( named "elements_number") and a button(named "create_button") .
    3. In the second_view, there is Adobe Interactive form ( named "adobe_form" ). There are 3 text_fields elements in the Adobe Interactive form.
    4. Run the WDP ABAP: first_view is opened. Type a number ex."2" in the "elements_number", click the "create_button".
    5. The second_view is opened.
    6. The "adobe_form" is occured.
    7. There are 2 text_fields displayed in the "adobe_form" and 1 text_field hiden in the "adobe_form".
    Steps (1) ~ (6), I have completed, but I don't know how to implement the step (7).
    Please give me some hint on this. I try to use the CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICE, but I didn't found any examples. Do you give me some ways to implement the function? Thanks a lot.
    Thank you very much.
    Thanks,

    Hello Wang,
    You need to transfer some additional information in an unused data field. Then, by using scripting within the form template, you can hide the input fields in question.

  • How to binnding the data in the adobe interactive forms for making a table?

    Hi, experts,
    Function:
    Through the sharing context node between adobe interactive form and a WDA for ABAP, display the data of the sflight_node in the ADOBE.
    version:
    Acrobat Reader 8.1.0
    currently both of the SAP-ABA and SAP-BASIS SP level: 9
    ADS : Successful.
    The following is my action:
    1.     Create a interface (Z_SFLIGHT_INTF) with a attribute node (SFLIGHT_NODE) that type is "sflight"  using the transaction code "sfp"
    2.     Create a form (Z_SFLIGHT_FORM) using the transaction code "sfp" with the interface Z_SFLIGHT_INTF.
    3.     Trag the sflight_node in the Z_SFLIGHT_INTF to the form( Z_SFLIGHT_FORM).
    4.     Open the layout tab in the form(Z_SFLIGHT_FORM), and create a table(table1). Click the table created just now, select the binding tab in the object tab, and in the Default Binding, select the SFLIGHT_NODE under the Z_SFLIGHT_FORM.
    Problem 1:
    Do you tell me whether is right for binding the context SFLIGHT_NODE using this way? If bind 3 context attributes in the sflight, how can I do it?
    5.     Create a WDA for abap (ZZ_02_SFLIGHT), and create a view(MAINVIEW) using transaction code "se80" in the sap-gui with adobe interactive form. Set the templatesource(Z_SFLIGHT_FORM) in the  adobe interactive form properties and saved, and then, datasource is "MAINVIEW_Z_SFLIGHT_FORM" automatically.
    6.     But I only found the attribute SFLIGHT_NODE under the context node(Z_SFLIGHT_NODE), and  I don't found the NODE ( SFLIGHT_NODE ) context in the context tab in the WDA for abap so that I don't set data to the context NODE (SFLIGHT_NODE).
    Problem 2:
    Do you tell me what can I do it so that I get the node SFLIGHT_NODE rather than attribute in the WDA for setting the data to the CONTEXT NODE (SFLIGHT_NODE)?
    Thanks a lot.

    Thanks & Regards
    Sagar Ingalwar

    Hi,
    it is so simple..
    1) Create AdobeInteractiveForm UI element in your screen.
    2) Create pdf_source for pdf source  attribute to bind it should be byte data.
    3) Create node for data Source. (The data which you want to place on the pdf form)
    4) right click on interactive form UI element & edit
    5) PDF editor will be open.
    6) drag the required data fields from data source to the form.
    7) place submit button on the form.
    Finally there are two kinds of interactive modes
    1) native mode (it runs on firefox browser)
    2) active X mode (it runs on Internet Explorer 6)
    Please use appropriate submit button on the form (i.e. native/ActiveX submit button)
    Best Regards

    DataSource and within that two Value Node for PersonalData and TravelData.  For PersonalData, the following Value Attribute: CostCenter, Department, Name etc etc........
    The properties is already set for the value attributes to string, I tried to change it to init it will not take it? 
    Please call me Amr.  Thank you,

  • Calling webservice in Adobe interactive form

    Hi,
    I have a webservice created for a function module which in turn calls the BAPI_PR_CREATE (purchase requisition creation) BAPI. I am trying to call this webservice from an Adobe interactive form I've created. Basically the user will enter all necessary data inside the form and when he presses a button the webservice should be called and the purchase requisition should be created.
    My question is what type of "Control type" should I use for the button "Regular", "Execute" or "Submit" and how should the javascript code look like?
    I have tried a lot of solutions that I've found on the internet but nothing worked.
    The ADS service is not yet installed, I know that this is a big issue but could this affect the functionality or could this be the cause why nothing seem to work?
    Thank you and Best Regards,
    Mihai

    Hi Florian,
    thank you for the given information.
    Unfortunatelly I was waiting for a long time from the BASIS team to install the ADS. Yesterday they've told me it's finally done.
    Consequently I started to retest the solutions I've found but with no result so far.
    I've tried to make the button an "Execute" control type and added the Connection inside the Execute tab.
    I've also tried with the following javascript inside the xml file (inside the click event of the button) and all of the button control types:
    var tempsoapAddress = xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("soapAddress").value;
    var tempwsdladdress = xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("wsdlAddress").value;
    var ServerPath = body.systemConfig.system.rawValue;
    var client = <Get Client from a data attribute>
    var Soap_PreServerPort =  "http://";
    var Soap_PostServerPort =  "/sap/bc/soap/rfc?sap-client=";
    var SoapAddress = Soap_PreServerPort + ServerPath + Soap_PostServerPort + client ;
    var Wsdl_PreServerPort =  "http://";
    var Wsdl_PostServerPort1 =  "/sap/bc/soap/wsdl11?services=ZBAPI_PO_CREATE2&amp;sap-client=";
    var wsdlAddress =  Wsdl_PreServerPort + ServerPath + Wsdl_PostServerPort1 + client ;
    xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("soapAddress").value = SoapAddress;
    xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("wsdlAddress").value = wsdlAddress;
    xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.execute(0);
    xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("soapAddress").value = tempsoapAddress;
    xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("wsdlAddress").value = tempwsdladdress;
    xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection = null;
    I've also found that maybe I should have attached the following roles and authorization objects to my user:
    Authorization objects: S_USER_PRO, S_SERVICE and S_ICF_ADMIN, S_SRT_ADM
    Roles:
    a) SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_ADMIN
    b) SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_ADMIN_BIZ
    c) SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_ADMIN_TEC
    d) SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_CONSUMER
    e) SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_DEBUGGER
    f) SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_OBSERVER
    g) SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_SERVICE_USER
    Do you have ideea what could be the issue? Can you give me another solution?
    Thank you and Best Regards,
    Mihai

  • Saving Adobe Interactive Form into a Server Path in Webdynpro.

    Hi Forum,
                     I have an Adobe Interactive Form as UI element in my webdynpro View. This form is available in the context attribute in Binary Format. I can read the form from this attribute as Byte Array only. I want to save this file in to a folder located in the Portal Server (ex : path :
    usr\jc00\j2ee\........\temp\myfolder).
                  I am trying  with the following code :
      IWDAttributeInfo attributeInfo = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute(IPrivateTestCompView.IContextElement.PDF_SOURCE);

  • How to store adobe Interactive form PDF in archive link?

    Hi everybody,
    I had create a WebDybpro Abap that contain an Adobe Interactive Form, now I must store this Interactive Form into Archive Link like a PDF document.
    I succeeded to save the PDF document on the archive link but after this operation, when I open this document saved, it doesn't show me the data but only the Interactive Form structure. The only data that file PDF saves are those I passed to Interactive Form during at the event initialization, but it lose all others datas that I inserted on the Interactive Form before to save.
    There is one mode to save also these datas or I can store only data that I load at the initialization event?
    I hope in your fast help.

    Hi Davide,
    I have a requirement where I just need to SAP HCM Archive Adobe form in External repository.
    Since you are using the archiveLink functionality.
    Can you please help me how you did?? What configurations need to be maintained for this?
    I am new to this. I did some Rnd on it and found that it can be achieved using HRFORM_HRF02 Business Add-In in the SET_ARCHIVE_INDEX method.
    But I have no clue how to do it?
    Can you please help me?

  • How to use Adobe Interactive forms with ISR frame work in Webdynpro forJava

    Hi,
    Anybody worked on Adobe Interactive forms with ISR frame work in Webdynpro for Java in ESS/MSS development.
    We have already searched in ISR_Cookbook_2004, however we didn't anything related webdynpro for java in that.
    Any information regarding this will be of great help.
    Regards
    Satish Kumar

    There are a number of issues here. A form that you created with LiveCycle Designer (XFA) cannot be used with FormsCentral. An Acroform, the kind you can create with Acrobat, can be used with FormsCentral, with certain limitations,  one of which is skip logic. A dynamic XFA form allows for this type of thing, but as mentioned, they don't work with FormsCentral. You can set up an Acroform to show/hide or activate/inactivate fields based on selections or entries made in other fields, but you'd have to set this up in Acrobat, not FormsCentral. So you can set up something roughly equivalent to a web form's skip logic, but you'd have to learn how to do this in Acrobat using JavaScript. There is a separate Acrobat JavaScript forum here if you have any questions.

  • Blank value added to dropdown list in Adobe Interactive forms

    Hi,
    I see blank value being added to the value list by default to dropdown lists in adobe interactive forms. The real issue is it's being added sometimes as the first value or last value in the drop down list of values which is inconsistent and resulting in Errors sometimes.
    Is there a way by which we can control the position of the blank value added by default(SAP or Adobe) to the drop down lists in adobe interactive forms .? Secondly , Is this a SAP or Adobe upgrade issue since we observed this issue only after recent upgrades ...?
    I am using HCM processes and forms and I am not adding blank value (space) explicitly in my coding of dropdown list values .
    Thanks for your time .

    Hi Sankeerth,
    The Web Dynpro framework generates a blank entry to the value set of the dropdown listbox if the Context attribute bound to the dropdown listbox is "nullable" (see properties of the Context attribute).
    The dropdown listboxes of interactive forms will be populated with exactly the same data (value sets) as the "native" Web Dynpro dropdown lisboxes.
    For SAP NetWeaver 7 EhP2, there's a Web Dynpro test application (WDR_TEST_ADOBE_ZCI) available, which demonstrates this: Start it and see the dropdown listboxes labeled "Datatype" and "Datatype (nullable)": Both are bound to Context attributes which are of type DATATYPE_D. The only difference is that one of the attributes is "nullable". The dropdown listbox bound to the nullable attribute contains the additional blank entry.
    Watch the native Web Dynpro dropdown listboxes below the interactive form: They are bound to the same Context attributes and contain the same value sets as the dropdown listboxes of the interactive form!

    Ralf

  • Use Of Dictionary Based search help in adobe interactive form

    Hi friends,

  • How to invoke HTTP Web Services in an Adobe Interactive Form

    Hi all,
    I am using Adobe Livecycle Designer stand-alone (without Netweaver integration), currently a trial 8.2 version.
    I need to invoke an HTTP Web Service (non-SOAP) in an Adobe Interactive Form. The Net.HTTP method does not work due to security reasons. The error message I get is:
    (german)
    " NotAllowedError: Sicherheitseinstellungen verhindern den Zugriff auf diese Eigenschaft oder Methode.
    Net.HTTP.request:28:XFA:form1[0]:mysubform[0]:Region[0]:change"
    In english this translates to: "Security settings prohibit the call of this property or method.
    And indeed the "Javascript for Acrobat API reference" includes the following note:
    "Note:This method can only be made outside the context of a document (for example, in a folder level JavaScript)."
    So this method seems to be excluded from use in an Adobe document, e. g. in an interactive form. But why is it then listed at all? Is there a way to call HTTP Web Services in an Adobe Interactive Form by somehow branching out the call outside the document itself? Of course I do not want to call a SOAP service which then calls the HTTP Web Service
    Is there any other way to invoke HTTP Web Services in an Adobe Interactive Form?
    Thanks a lot for your response!
    Regards
    Christoph

    Hi,
    back again, had to handle other issues, sorry.
    Just to get a little more concrete. The condition depends on the context node attributes. So if an attribute is initial, it's field should not been shown, if it's not initial, it should ne shown. There are 6 context attributes and therefore 6 fields in the form. How can I get the attributes' value?
    And can I put them into the same subform or do I have to create 7 (6 conditions + blank-condition) subforms?
    I put the fields (textfield and context node value) that should be shown depending on conditions in a subform. So how can I adress this subform?
    I'm not so familiar with JavaScript, so please help me. I need something like:
    if (context_node_attribute X is initial) {
             subform_1.presence = "hidden" ;
    I tried it with
    if ( ARB_STUNDEN.rawValue != null) {
         Beratungsstunden.presence = "hidden" ;
    but it didn't work....
    Thanks,

  • Showing linebreaks in Adobe interactive forms webdynpro java

    Hey
    Im using interactive form from Adobe to show the content of my context, but the linebreaks gets converted into spaces. Heres my scenario:
    I have create a context:
    Person (node)
    - Name (value attribute)
    - Lastname (value attribute)
    I have create a view (view1) with 2 TextEdit to enter som text. This two TextEdit fields is binded to the contextnode.
    I have created another view (view2) with interactive form. The interactive forms consist of 2 InputFields that is also binded to the context.
    When i run the application i insert som text in the first view (view1). Then i go to the second view(view2) to display the content as a PDF. This works, but my problem is that the linebreaks I have created in the view1 gets converted into spaces in view2. I have allowd multiple lines.
    My question is that:
    does Adobe interactive form support linebreaks from the context? It is possible to enter linebreaks if I edit the interactive form at runtime, but I want it to display the linebreaks automaticly from the context.
    Are there any way around this? Please help me out. I cant find any sap note about this issue

    I know a little more about the problem now. After viewing the XML source I change the property of the inputfield.
    It was like this:
                <field name="verdipers_felt" y="130.7001mm" x="180.1801mm" w="101.6004mm" h="44.4501mm" locale="no_NO" access="ReadOnly">
    but i changed the access to be nonInteractive
                <field name="verdipers_felt" y="130.7001mm" x="180.1801mm" w="101.6004mm" h="44.4501mm" locale="no_NO" access="nonInteractive">
    now view2 shows the linebreak as in view1... Buut! when im going back to view1 from view2, the linebreaks gets converted into spaces
    thats pretty wierd, aint it?

  • Generate Adobe Interactive Form in background and setpdfSource value.

    Hi,
    Is there any way to create Adobe Interactive Form in the background assigning R/3 data (without displaying) and assign pdfSource binary information in context attribute and later, display Adobe Interactive Form using pdfSource context attribute in a new window?
    if Adobe Interactive Form is in Visible state, I'm also able to display Adobe Interactive Form in a new window using pdfSource binary context attribute, .
    But, unable to create Adobe Interactive form in the background when Adobe Interactive Form Visibility is NONE and unable to assign binary data to pdfSource attribute in context and hence unable to display Adobe Interactive Form in a new window. Kindly help me if this process is possible.
    Thank you in advance.
    Regards
    Prasad

    Hi Prasad,
    This is certainly possible. First populate the dataSource context node with the data (e.g. coming from R/3). Then use <a href="http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/adobe/api/WDInteractiveFormHelper.html">WDInteractiveFormHelper.getContextDataAsStream</a> to obtain the data.xml as a byte[] by calling toByteArray() on the ByteArrayOutputStream. The next step is to obtain the xdp template as a byte[] (I don't know exactly how to do this, but it's certainly possible using some API, just as you would read other resources deployed within your Web Dynpro). When you have both the template and the data, you can use the <a href="http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/adobe/pdfdocument/api/package-summary.html">PDFDocument</a> API to render a PDF, something as <i>WDPDFDocumentFactory.getDocumentHandler().getDocumentContext().getDocumentCreationContext()</i>; set the data and the template and other options like interactive, call execute and retrieve the pdf byte[] from the returned object. Eventually you can assign the pdf byte[] to the pdfSource context attribute. In case you use NW04, you must use the <a href="http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/pdfobject/api/package-summary.html">PDFObject</a> instead.
    Besides, why would you want to create the PDF before displaying it?
    Kind regards,
    Sigiswald
