Interacrive forms within the SAP GUI

Hello
I want to work with interactive forms within the SAP GUI, with ABAP.
I've managed to display a generated PDF in an ABAP screen, with CL_GUI_HTML_VIEWER, using the method LOAD_DATA. The problem now is getting the filled data out of the form. Is there any standard way of doing it? (getting the data without saving the file)
I've thought of some ways, such as getting the filled file somehow as a binary file, or handling the document's Submit button, but I haven't managed to get any of them to work.
Is there any way to make it work, or use the different PDF classes to do it..
Thanks

Hello Rich,
the sap gui from the NW2004s SneakPreview page is on patchlevel 8. The problem is when i use the latest sap gui from the service marketplace (full install!) i cant event call the gui. Getting a error when doubleclicking on the SAP Gui icon.
'The procedure entry point 'RfcResetTraceDir' could not be located in the dynamic link library 'LIBRFC32.dll' .'
So actually since i installed the NW2004s on my local notebook the only sap gui "working" (at least i can call it) is the one from the NW2004s Sneakpreview page but im getting this error mentioned here on all systems! not only on the NW2004s system
regards,

How to get absolute path of a form within the Forms

Aslam o Alikum (Hi)
How to get absolute path of a form within the Forms 6i or 9i
For example
i am running a from "abc.fmx" from C:\myfolder directory
can i get the form path 'C:\myfolder' by calling any any function from "abc.fmb"

There is no direct call that will always work. What you need to do is call get_application_property(current_form). This may have the full path in it, depending on if that path was defined when the form was launched. If there is no path, then you need to use TOOL_ENV.GETVAR to read the Forms<nn>PATH and the ORACLEPATH, parse those out into individual directories and then check for the FMX in each.
I already have some code to do all this for you see:

Stop and start the system via the SAP GUI

........ although I don't know the answer!
We have SAP running on an iSeries/DB2 format.
And we of course have stopped and started our SAP systems many times before via an iSeries screen.
One thing we have never had to do, is stop and start the system via the SAP GUI.
Is this possible? If so, how is it done?
Surprisingly difficult to find a solution online.

Paui,
You can also do a soft shutdown, which waits till the active users/sessions are logged out (Draing out the sesstions) and no more new users are allowed to login during that time.
Goto SM51, select the instace/server you want to stop then menu --> Goto --> Server Name --> Administration --> Shut Down Server (soft).
Here you can also select a hard shutdown if the situation demands by following the same menu path.
Even though your question is answered but I still wanted to update you the options to select.

Workflows within the SAP environment

Hello,
for my diploma i'm evaluating the different workflow technologies within the sap environment. Therefor i set up a list with the different technologies and want to know if i'm missing something.
1) ALE
2) MDM Workflow
3) Business Workflow aka Adhoc Workflow
(CRM Workflow, SCM Workflow are synonym to the Business Workflow)
4) SAP Webflow aka SAP Workflow
(kind of a successor of Business Workflow)
5) Guided Procedures
6) Business Process Engine aka ccBPM
Are these the most used Workflows within the SAP environment or is something missing?
And what is the difference between SAP Business Workflow and SAP Webflow? Some source say these two are nearly the same, except the "web-capability" of Webflow...
btw: Sorry for posting this question in the Coffee Corner but its a farreaching area and i dont know which other forum it would fit better...
thx for replys
Matthias

Matthias -
Please be assured that there was no irony or sarcasm intended - if you can complete the evaluation task that you have set for yourself, it will not only be a wonderful achievement but also something that I'm sure many here would want to read and comment on.
The one thing to keep in mind - perhaps the most important thing - is that technological alternatives are never pursued rationally. Rather, they are generally pursued for the worst of reasons - someone's opinion of where "the market" is going at any given point in time.
So unless you can get an SAP "insider" to explain to you why SAP's workflow alternatives developed the way they did, you will not really have a complete picture.
Of course, it's also true that sometimes good things can happen for the worst of reasons, so perhaps the "inside" history of workflow at SAP is irrelevant.
The reason I'm going on about this is because I still don't think "the powers that be" at Walldorf have realized yet that the way to get pre-NW clients to NW200nx (NWDS, WDA, WDJ, GP, VC) is to get them to use regular old workflow first.
There is nothing in NWDS, WDA, WDJ, GP, and VC that can't be done in a pre-NW environment using a combination of user exits, BAdI's, BAPI's, and workflows.
And if SAP customers were to start using these older techniques to implement "integrated" and "process-driven" applications, then they would get into a "state-of-mind" that would make them much more confident of their ability to handle NW techniques, and much more aware of the benefits resuling therefrom.
As the old saying goes -
you've got to take folks from what they know to what they don't
i.e. you can't simply "shock and awe" customers into what you want them to start using.
Sorry to go on like this, but all these matters are tied up in the project you are about to undertake ...

Call SAP GUI txn from WD4A running in the SAP GUI

I'm somewhat new to Web Dynpro and I'm trying to evaluate the use of WD4A as our main custom screen/txn platform. I have written a simple application. I created a transaction code that calls WDYID and launches my WD4A application in the SAP GUI.
Our company does a lot of "CALL TRANSACTION" in our normal dynpro development and I need to prove out that it is possible to do the same in WD4A. I've used the following code to try and call a transaction:
CALL METHOD lo_window_manager->create_external_window
 EXPORTING
 url =
'http://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?sap-client=<client>&~TRANSACTION=VA03'
 title = 'Display Orderl'
* MODAL = ABAP_FALSE
* HAS_MENUBAR = ABAP_TRUE
* IS_RESIZABLE = ABAP_TRUE
* HAS_SCROLLBARS = ABAP_TRUE
* HAS_STATUSBAR = ABAP_TRUE
* HAS_TOOLBAR = ABAP_TRUE
* HAS_LOCATION = ABAP_TRUE
 RECEIVING
 window = lo_wd_window.
The problem with this is that when called from the SAP GUI, it launches a browser. I would like for it to go directly to the WebGUI version of VA03.
Is this possible?

Hi Adam,
you should be able to suspend to an ITS call.
- however you might fall foul of a bug - fixed in note 1255292 (Special characters not permitted for suspend/redirect)
Not sure if this is what is causing the issue...
Can you not pass parameters to the transaction using the CL_WDR_SAPGUI_INTEGRATION2->FIRE method?
this is what is called by the FIRE_START_TRANSACTION method, but allows for additional parameters.(I've never used it myself so I'm not sure that it would work, but would be interesting to find out - could you let us know?)
Cheers,
Chris

For uploading a SAP LOGO follow informatio contained in this link:
http://www.sap-img.com/basis/changing-the-sapgui-logo-on-the-right-hand-side.htm
1) Try deleting tha actual LOGO from trx SMW0 table and Check the file name of the new LOGO and call it with another file name different from previous and Import the new file.
2) Check also the file name trx SM30 table SSM_CUST that must be the new file name.

Is it possible to authenticate the SAP GUI user against LDAP ( no SSO )

Hi
I was under the impression that you can user LDAP to authenticate your SAP GUI user . ( so users do not have to maintain and remember multiple passwords )..
However - note #603208 claims that this is not possible.
This is quite an old note , is this still true ?
note #793191 ( FAQ ) says :
9. Can I synchronize user passwords?
Response: No.
The password cannot be synchronized. For more information, see Note 603208.
and note #603208 says :
A comparison of the production password with a directory is not possible.
The following reasons are responsible for this:
The password is not stored in the plain text or in in "enciphered" form, neither in SAP Web Application Server nor in the directory, rather is is stored as a "hash value" that is calculated from the password that is entered. The function used for this is especially designed so that the password CANNOT be reconstructed from the hash value.
For technical reasons, the user master synchronization cannot therefore extract the plain text of the password and send this to another system.
The user's password has a size that is known only to the user. Even the system administrator and database administrator cannot obtain any information about the password.
A comparison in plain text form would violate this basic rule. For this reason, the use of a hash value is a generally applied standard.
Often the adjustment of passwords in several systems is equated with the term "Single Sign-On".
However, this term must only be applied if the user logs on once and this logon information is transferred within the system infrastructure.
The SAP Web Application Server supports real Single Sign-Ons (note 138498).

Any ideas on restricting userID Role Assigment within the SAP Security Team

Hello,
I have gotten a request to look into restriction of assignment of roles to oneself within the company SAP Security Team. Thoughts I have come up with so far involve the use of UserID User Groups, Role Assignment Ranges, and forcing all role assignements for all userIDs through GRC-AC CUP for QA and Prod. Has anyone come up with a workable solution that is outside of these suggestions that they have put into practice?
Thanks in advance for your help!
John

Hi John,
There can be a manual control in place and individual should not assign role/s to himself / herself.
Otherwise, security team members can be assigned to a specific group (let say Security) and they shouldn't have access to authorization S_USER_GRP with ACTVT 22 & CLASS - Security.There should be a dedicated power user to assign the role/s to the security team members and this can be auditted (SM20 log for manual super user / FireFighter log for FireFighter user).
Thanks

Running form within the browser

Is it possible to run a form using the JInitiator and Application Server within the browser window instead of the form creating its own work area outside of the browser? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bucky

Hi
Set the separateFrame parameter to false.
This can be done by supplying parameters directly in the URL or in a form specific section in the formsweb.cfg file
