How to define a pdf - filename in reports 6i

good morning programmers,
first i want to excuse me for my not very good englisch. i4m a german
programmer and i have a little problem. i wrote a report for
printing quotations / offers. the user has the option to print
or to send an e-mail with pdf-attachment. and there is the problem.
the filename of the report is always the same ( report.pdf ) or in german
( bericht.pdf ) but i want to define the filename myself. how to do this ???
i would be very thankful for your fast help.
regards
kevin

thank u for your fast answer. but i think it wasn4t the right one.
i had define the systemparameter DESNAME in a form-parameter-list.
---> add_parameter(pl_id,'DESNAME',text_parameter,'whatever.pdf');
the report-engine starts, the e-mail client opened and search for
an e-mail-kontact named whatever.pdf gg
maybe u have another idea or did i make anything wrong ?
regards
kevin

How to define a PDF form

Hi all,
I am working on a HIPAA form, we have defined this as a SAP script in our system, but SAP has provided a functionality where we can define our output as a sap script,pdf or smart form (but for that we need to define the foem in all three ways). Right now we are just dealing with SAP script but we want to get it generated as pdf. so can you please tell me how can I define my pdf... or is there a way where I can look out for the std pdf provided by SAP, the same way as we do have std. SAP Script.
Thank you.
Raj

Hi Pavan,
Thanks for the reply... actually the issue SAP has issued a std transaction THIPAA for issuing the Hipaa certificate, and this transaction is calling program RPLHIPU1. The program looks for the entry in the table T5F99OSFT and see if the form is defined as a sap script, smart form or pdf. So we have a ability to maintain the values in this table if we want out HIPAA certificate to be defined as a pdf,sap script of Smartform. So when I maintain the value as sap script in the table T5F99OSFT it did print the certificate. (because we have defined a sap script for it and I just and I just assigned that SAP script in the table)But when I tried to get it printed as a pdf and put the values in the table and ran transaction THIPAA it just said the entries are not maintained and same is the case with Smartform also. So when looked if there is any smartform defined which I can assign in the table I couldn't find any, so I was just wondering is there way where we define our form as pdf and then I can assign the values in the table T5F99OSFT.
THanks,
Raj

How to show a pdf file in bi publisher report

Hi All,
We need to show a pdf file as report which was saved in a given location. How to call that pdf file as report. We need to give a hyperlink in the report and when we click on the report the pdf file should be displayed.
When we open a report, there will be just hyperlinks to call serveral reports. When we click on each link , one should call a pdf saved in a particular location.
Thanks.

In Word, if you have set the borders on then you should see them in the output. In Word it has a setting to let you see 'gridlines' even if they are not set ie you have turned the borders off. Highlight the table and set all the borders on and re-try. If that fails, try building the table from scratch and copy the cell contents across to the new table

Filename for PDF Files in Reports 10g

Hi Everybody.
I am using oracle application server 10.1.2.3.0 and my OS is windows server 2003.
Is there a way to name the PDF filenames that get generated on the server under the ORACLE_HOME/reports/cache when using the destype=cache, desformat=PDF option on Oracle Reports. Or for that matter, any of the files that are generated. I'm using windows server 2003.
RIght now, it generates its own unique identifier. I would like to control my filenames (Realizing that they have to be unique names), if it is possible. The reason is that I believe I'm going to have to build a user interface of a user's reports in the queue (cache directory) so, if I name it something more meaningful, then I'll be able to handle it.
Anyway, any help or tips would be much appreciated in accomplishing this task. If there is a better way someone has than what I'm doing, please add any comments on things you've done.

I believe I'm going to have to build a user interface of a user's reports in the queue (cache directory)
The cache is not a permanent repository...
Several years ago I had a similar need (for an Hummingbird application), and I used COPY_REPORT_OBJECT_OUTPUT Built-in to copy the report to a directory and with a name of my choice.

How to link PDF document in Report Layout??

I need to display the contents of PDF document after the form letter report. I tried OLE object but at the runtime it does not display the content. Does any one knows how to attach PDF document in reports layout?
Thanks
Ravindra

you will have to concatinate your report output with the static PDF document. in reprots 10g you can create a cusotm destination that could implement this functionality.
out of the box, reports does not provide the ability to add static content in PDF to reports' generated PDF output.
thanks,

How to show custom header in pdf generated from report

Hi,
I have created a report that is used to display Leave record of employees in an organization. After which it creates a pdf file and send it to respective HOD.
In this case I am trimming generated output and sendinf only required fields to the pdf.
When pdf is getting generated it shows program name as Title of that report.
I want to change this header to my own header along with some variable but not sure how I can do so.
I have also tried TOP-OF_PAGE but problem in this case is that I am still getting program name along with it.
To generate pdf I have used function :
call function 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'
    exporting
      src_spoolid   = spoolid
      no_dialog     = ' '
    importing
      pdf_bytecount = l_no_of_bytes
      pdf_spoolid   = l_pdf_spoolid
      btc_jobname   = l_jobname
      btc_jobcount = l_jobcount
    tables
      pdf           = l_pdfdata.
Then I had converted this pdf to Binary
call function 'QCE1_CONVERT'
    tables
      t_source_tab         = l_pdfdata
      t_target_tab         = lit_record
    exceptions
      convert_not_possible = 1
      others               = 2.
Then I had created subject matter and used FM : SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1: to send mail to respective HODs.
I tried dubbing it but couldn't get any variable which is holding program name.
Sorry for putting in wrong forum.
so Closing it from this forum and raising the same in ABAp-General forum.

How to send the output to PDF format in reports 6i?

Hi,
How to send the output to PDF format in reports 6i? I given Mode = BITMAP.
DESTYPE = File, DESFORMAT = PDF, DESNAME = C:\x.pdf.
Report is running fine. But PDF file not generated. I don't know what i missed. Any one can help this?
Thanks
Kavitha

Hello,
Do you get this problem only for DESFORMAT=PDF ?
Test with :
DESFORMAT = RTF, DESNAME = C:\x.rtf
or
DESFORMAT = HTMLCSS, DESNAME = C:\x.html
does it work ?
Check if DESNAME is modified in the reports itself.
Regards
