How to provide search functionality on interactive form

Hi Experts,
I have an requirement in HCM P&F where v need to provide an search on interactive forms.
The selected values has to be mapped to workflow.
kindly can anyone provide the appropriate solution for this requirement.
Thanks,
P.s.Raj

You will need a generic service to handle the searching and populating the "results". That will be in the form of a drop-down on your form itself. From there, I would think, the user could pick from the drop-down and add whatever they selected to some "list of receipients". It's VERY possible but will take a bit of effort...and a good understanding of generic services and user events in HCM P&F.
Past that, I am not providing you a detailed solution. That's called "work" and I get paid well for that. =) haha

Extend the controller and get the handle of the current row of the VO. Set set the attribute context filed accordingly. Also get the handle fo the flexbean and set the context. According rendering would change.

Hi Guys,
 Can anyone tell me How to Provide search Help for files on Application Server. I have put a file name on selection screen. I want to give search help for files on application server.
Thanks & Regards.
Harish.

Hi Harish,
Use the following code,
tables sxpgcotabe.
data: lt_execprot LIKE btcxpm OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,
 w_filepath(60) TYPE c, --> length depending on your Directory path.
SELECT SINGLE *
 FROM sxpgcotabe
 WHERE name = 'LIST_DB2DUMP'
 AND opsystem = sy-opsys.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 SELECT SINGLE *
 FROM sxpgcotabe
 WHERE name = 'LIST_DB2DUMP'
 AND opsystem = 'UNIX'.
 IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 MESSAGE e000 WITH 'External operating system command '
 'LIST_DB2DUMP not found'.
 ENDIF.
ENDIF.
sxpgcotabe-parameters = p_filepath. --> provide the directory path.
CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'
 EXPORTING
 commandname = sxpgcotabe-name
 additional_parameters = sxpgcotabe-parameters
 operatingsystem = sxpgcotabe-opsystem
 TABLES
 exec_protocol = lt_execprot
 EXCEPTIONS
 no_permission = 1
 command_not_found = 2
 parameters_too_long = 3
 security_risk = 4
 wrong_check_call_interface = 5
 program_start_error = 6
 program_termination_error = 7
 x_error = 8
 parameter_expected = 9
 too_many_parameters = 10
 illegal_command = 11
 wrong_asynchronous_parameters = 12
 cant_enq_tbtco_entry = 13
 jobcount_generation_error = 14
 OTHERS = 15.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 MESSAGE e000 WITH text-e01 p_filepath. "Directory failed
ENDIF.
Loop round the directory list, split each line up into a line table
and get the last data for each line, should be the filename
Then build the dirlist.
REFRESH t_dirlist.
LOOP AT lt_execprot.
 REFRESH t_dirline.
 SPLIT lt_execprot-message AT space INTO TABLE t_dirline.
 DESCRIBE TABLE t_dirline LINES w_nolines.
 READ TABLE t_dirline INDEX w_nolines.
 MOVE t_dirline-data TO t_dirlist-filename.
 APPEND t_dirlist.
ENDLOOP.
Here you will get all the files in the directory mentioned in Application server.
For displaying them as a Search help use the FM '/BMC/ZPOPUP_GET_VALUE'
Pass the Internal table to this FM.

How to integrate Flashisland for Adobe interactive forms

Hi Experts,
Can you please help us in understanding how to integrate Flashisland with adobe interactive forms?
We need to add swf file in the interactive forms, which will be used in webdynpro abap application.
Any idea will be helpful for us.
Thanks for the support.
Regards
Sathish

Hi Sathish,
You can not add swf file in interactive form, however you can integrate you flash island with web dynpro ABAP application.
Adobe flash island and adobe interactive form are two different things and have different purposes.
You can have adobe flash island and adobe interactive form in a single WD application(even as part of the same screen), but still there will be integration on the data level not on UI level. The UI elements for both will react separately from each other and there can't be any integration of adobe flash island inside adobe form.
However you can develop a flash application using which you can view adobe interactive form similar to adobe reader and use this flash application as part of your WD ABAP application but that doesn't make any sense as without flash island we can show it in WD ABAP view.
I hope this will clear your doubt.
Regards,
Vaibhav

How can user attach file to interactive form, and be read by abap program?

Hello,
I created an abap interactive form, sent to the user, then user fills out the form fields, then it is uploaded back to sap, then my program reads this data and process it.
It works.
Now I want users to be able to attach any file they want, and the abap program to extract this file out of the PDF, to put it into SAP (or anywhere).
I succeeded in attaching a file, I can "see" it via function module get_annotations, but I get the file in compressed form by Adobe (filter="FlateDecode").
Do you know how to unzip the file, or is there another way to attach files in adobe reader/extract them via abap?
I use acrobat reader 8.1.2
Thx a lot!
sandra
Below is the xml obtained by GET_ANNOTATIONS. We see that there are other text annotations, and that the attached file has {length="98005"}, though real file (before "attach file" to the PDF, and also after "detach file") has length 111 995 bytes. It's why I deduced that there is a compression (I also tried to extract it as-is and open it with adobe but it doesn't work.

Hello everybody,
I am sure you have an answer to my question above. It was :

How to Destroy PDFs generated thru Interactive Form ELement

Hello Friends
My team has figured out that constructing pdfs through Interactive Form Element in Netweaver is a big performance issue
We need to destroy those pdfs generated , So please help us out with this
thanks a lot

I guess I'm still not fully understanding your problem. You mention that they aren't being cleared from the JVM? On the server or client side? How exactly are you seeing that they aren't being released? I'm assuming you mean server side because you mention JVM. The JVM isn't used on the client side to display the UI element. There is no JVM used in Web Dynpro ABAP for the server side processing. The only place the JVM is used is in the Adobe Document Services itself for the rendering of the PDF. Is that where you are seeing instances not being cleared? I'm not exactly sure how that would be manifesting itself. Could you please provide some more detail.

How to create Online & Offline PO interactive form?

hello,
I am required to create an online as well as offline PO creation form.As i am new to adobe forms,i do not have much knowledge.
Kindly help me know how to proceed for the above mentioned forms.
Thanks,
Rosalin

Hi Rosalin,
I don't think there are standard adobe forms available for PO either in ECC 5 or ECC 6. You have to take it as a custom development either directly in ECC using TCode SFP or using WD ABAP/Java.
Adobe Lifecycle Designer provides you a sample form. Check the following path in your PC if the Lifecycle Designer has been installed. It is just a sample.
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Designer 8.0\EN\Samples
Goto TCode SFP. In form put ISR* and search. You will get the list of available standard forms. Check the following thread as well.
[Re: What forms are available as standard from SAP?]

Search function in interactive PDF

Hi
I am developping an interactive PDF and I would like to embed a search function (not the Ctrl+F option, an actual search button on each page, like on a website).
Is that possible? I am curently working in InDesign CS6
Thanks
Andrei

Probably not possible without some scripting.
Check out the Acrobat Forums.
It won't be possible from InDesign.

How to read attachment from adobe interactive form

Hi,
My requirement is- vendor should fill all the detail in an offline interactive form and attach necessary documents in the form itself. How can i read the attachments from the form inside my program and how can i store it in SAP. I am using FM ' SMUM_XML_PARSE' to read all the data in the form.
Best Regards,
Tofan

mailForm
Parameters: bUI, cTo, [cCc], [cBcc], [cSubject], [cMsgBody]
Returns: nothing
This method exports the form data and mails the resulting FDF file as an attachment to all recipients,
with or without user interaction depending on the value of bUI.
If it is set to true then the rest of the parameters are used to seed the compose new message window that is displayed to the user.
If bUI is set to false, the cTo parameter is required and all others are optional.
You must use a semicolon u201C;u201D to separate multiple recipients in cTo, cCc, cBcc parameters.
The length limit for cSubject and cMsgBody is 64k bytes.
Example:
/* This will pop up the compose new message window */
this.mailForm(true);
/* This will send out the mail with the attached FDF file to fun1 @ fun . com and fun2 @ fun . com */
this.mailForm(false, "fun1 @ fun . com; fun2 @ fun . com", "", "", "This is the subject", "This is the body of the mail.");
Note:
This is a Windows-only feature. In addition, the client machine must have its
default mail program configured to be MAPI enabled in order to use this method.
I had to change the code:
instead of this.mailDoc :
var myDoc = event.target;
myDoc.mailDoc(false, "fun1 @ fun . com; fun2 @ fun . com", "", "", "This is the subject", "This is the body of the mail." );
But the outlook new message window still opens...
Any Idea's?
