Implementing F4 Help functionality of ABAP work bench on Adobe form

Hi ,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/42/c8a3ccc84e136ee10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm
Above link gives following description about Web Dynpro Form – UI Element ValueHelpDropDownList
<b>ValueHelpDropDownList contains the script that is required for the link to the server in order to retain the elements of the list field from the back end at runtime. This Library object enables the end user to set up an input help request to the SAP server.  This request always works in online mode, but not in offline mode. A server-side update of the input help is possible.</b>
Please explain me how ValueHelpDropDownList  UI Element works .
Please correct my understanding -
We use a RFC adaptive model BAPI to retrive data from R/3 system and bind the variable to ValueHelpDropDownList  UI Element . This means we get the data from backend in intialization of PDF form ( It means it is one time activity which will be used to extract data from R/3 system to display to end user ).
Is there any alternative by which we can get data from R/3 system ( some thing similar to F4 help in ABAP work bench ).
Please let me know if any one implemented this functionality .
Regards,
Nanda

Hi Ankit,
Thanks for a reply. Could you please explain the details? I am mapping a context attribute to the whole column and the value help button besides the field.
Thanks
Samatha.

  • Trigger workflow from ABAP webdynpro (having an adobe form)

    Hello All,
    I have developed an Webdynpro (for ABAP) component that has an Adobe Form integrated within it. Now I have been given a requirment that the form (once filled out on the portal) needs to be routed to 2-3 persons for approval and then submitted (or processed in SAP). The approving personnel will look at their UWL on the portal and approve/dissapprove.
    I do not have much hands on experience on such a Workflow scenario as above. I have already completed the adobe form part and the webdynpro section.
    I will really appreciate it if anyone can advise as to how I need to proceed here.
    Thanks in advance, Liz

    Hi Liz,
    You can use the FM SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW. In webdynpro you have the button like "Submit" right? All the process has done, the user can click the submit button to get the approval. Under the button you can call this FM.
    Create one workflow based on your scenario, and pass the workflow number to this FM. So once the submit button is clicked then in back end workflow will getting triggered.
    For more Informations, please have a look at following links.
    SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW doesn't start workflow...

    Hi Vara,
    Do follow these steps:
    1) Goto SE80 and create a WDC.
    2) Create a main view, and in the view go to context, and create a node and an attribute in it to fill the values from WDA.
    3) Goto layout of the View, and create an inputfield UI element, and bind the attribute created in the context.
    4) Now create an Interactive form UI element and give some name in the Template source of that UI element.
    5) On press of enter, it asks you to create a new SFP, and say yes for that. Also choose context as the data source during that process.
    6) Now SFP tcode is opened for you to design the layout.
    7) Similarly desing the layout and bind the copied node from webdypro component.
    8) Save and activate the form.
    9) Save and activate the WDC.
    10) Create an application and test it.
    This completes the scenario mentiond by you..
    I Hope it helps you.
    Good day!

  • WD ABAP : Libraries/Elements in Adobe Form Designer

    Hello,
    Could anyone tellme how shall I get elements like 'Hide Reader Toolbar' and 'Submit to SAP' button in Adobe form Designer  when using in Web dynpro ABAP.
    I have installed adobe form designer from Gui 6.40 DVD.
    Regards,
    Ahmad

    This happened to me once.  I lost the entire WebDynpro Library Group. I went into the design and right mouse clicked in the Library Area.  I then added my own Web Dynpro Group.  This should create a directory.  You can see all of these directories in you documents and settings directory under Application Data\Adobe\Designer\<lang>\objects.  For instance mine is: C:\Documents and Settings\i809764\Application Data\Adobe\Designer\en\objects
    I then copied all the files from the WebDynpro directory into the one I had just created.  You could try changing the library Group Properties to point to the correct location.  If you are  just missing some of the elements, check the same directory and make sure their XFO files are there.

  • Modelling Info Required for ABAP Work bench

    Dear All,
       We need your help in the below issue. Please try to provide your valuable inputs for the same.
       We are trying to develop a solution in the R/3 system which tries to compare different table/fields and checks the consistency of the data in these tables.
    E.G: Say we have 2 tables like BUT020 and ADRC, now we would need a modelling tool which sort of maps the primary keys of these tables in the front end and checks whether the data in this table is correct.
        So we would need to write some generic code at the back end which picks these tables/field details at run time and checks the data for inconsistencies. Now at the back end we are comfortable in writing this Generic code in ABAP.
       But we need help in the front end where we can have a modelling tool which say would have a pre-defined set of tables and which would allow us to map these fields in the UI and pass the data to the back end.
        Do you know which modelling tool or a UI which we could use for this purpose. We tried checking with Visual Composer for the UI, but I heard this integrates only with the ESA Repository and we should BO's modelled for the same. So this option was not feasible.
        Please let us know in case you know any tool which can use in the front end to map the tables.
      Any suggestion will be highly rewarded.
    Warm Regards, Vinay

    Hello Sandeep
    The reason why it's no longer available is because it's not recommended to install Dual Stack.
    The recommendation is to install seperate SAP systems (one SID for ABAP, another SID for Java, a database for each of them).
    There are several reasons for that recommendation, refreshing procedure, system copy procedure, setting database parameters seperately for each and so on.
    So you would have something like AA1 + Database and AA2 + Database and you connect them using the post configuration steps (template runs etc).
    Most or all of the future SAP products will be focused on one engine (either fully ABAP or fully Java).
    Kind regards
    Tom

  • GroupBegin Using the StayTogether Function Will that work in Documaker interactive forms ?

    Hi Experts,
    I have set of section which have more variabels.Values to the variabels entered during entry/interactive process.
    Based on the values section will grow to the pages. How to keep the sections together ?
    Any thoughts!!!
    Thanks,
    Raman C.

    The previous answer are rules behaviors for Gendata, those rules would not apply during an interactive entry session. In Gendata, the "Stay together" behavior works by changing the size of the first section in the "group" (usually a dummy section that defines the rule) so that it has the accumulated size of all the member sections. There is no interactive entry method to maintain that behavior. You could try to add some DAL scripting in your section fields to determine whether movement between pages is required, but that could be complicated to write and maintain. Depending upon what your sections contain, you might combine the sections at the start into a single one. That way it has to 'stay together'. Depending upon your version and requirements, you might use Text Area triggers to eliminate paragraphs that do not apply to a given transaction or use Paragraph Selection(s) with triggers to add paragraph content into the section dynamically.

  • Dropdown Not Working on  ISR Adobe Form ...

    I am trying to create Dropdown for The Positiones in the ISR Form through Transaction SFP.
    I have Taken The UI Element <b>"ISR DDL 1 st Selected"</b> ie. from ISR <b>Native Library as my Form is of Layout type 'ZCI'.</b> I have also written the Logic for Populating ADDITIONAL_DATA Table .
    But, Problem is this Dropdown is Only working for Characteristic "PERNR" from the scenario. For any other chracteristic with the same process only one value is getting populated not rest.
    That Dropdown only working for characteristic "PERNR" & not for any other characteristics ??
    awaiting reply !!!
    Thanks,
    Smita

    Hi Anto,
    I have created One Scenario ZREQ & For the same i have created my<b> own BADI
    ZQISR1_ZREQ which is not copied from the standard BADI Implementation</b>, hence no question of copying the standard Functionality for PERNR.
    I have debugged my BADI code & additional Data Table getting populated exactly similar for Characterisic "PERNR" & "PLANS" , but still PERNR Dropdown is working & "PLANS " Dropdown is not.
    I am taking DD from ISR Library because its proposed that ISR Form with "ZCI" layout type should use "ISR Natiove Library" as Scenario for HR Forms & processes we create in QISRSCENARIO are defaulted to form with this Layout type.
    thanks
