Hi,
Adobe Reader/Acrobat DC mobile products do not support XFA forms.
Please take a look at the Adobe LiveCycle Blog.

Interactive Adobe Form Attachments - not possible??

Hi All,
I'm trying to extract attachments from interactive adobe form.
I bound the pdfsource to the form and tried to extract the attachments using pdfclasses.
The attachments are not captured in the pdfsource. SAP Note 1260750 says
"There is no support for attachments to interactive forms up to SAP NetWeaver 70 EhP2."
However I tried the same using offline upload (interactive form) and I could extract the attachments on SAP Netweaver 7.0 Ehp1.
I would like to know -
1) If there is some work around to do the same for Online form too.
2) Is Ehp2 released?
Thank you,
Sri

Hi Subramanyam,
Since i had queries regarding the same requirement that I think you have just achieved, so I could not help but to reply to the same thread and hoping to get some help.
I have developed an offline Interactive form which after getting filled is submitted by mail to save the information at the backend in the SAP system. This is working fine.
But now i need to enhance this form by providing an attachment functionality to the form where the user would be allowed to fill in the form and also attach some documents. I have been able to implement the same absolutely fine but while submitting the form through email, where my form gets attached with the mail in an xml format, I am not able find a way to send the attachment in the attached xml and thus not reaching backend.
Please help me out to find a way to send the attached document by Submitting though mail and thus make it reach the backend system for further processing.
Thanks,
Abhishek Goel.

Interactive Adobe form is not interactive in ABAP WD

Hello,
I've created an Adobe form with interactive UI elements (text input fields). When simulating these in the Adobe designer, they are all working fine. However, when executing the form embedded in an ABAP WD, the input fields are not active.
When I check the 'enable' check box of the form, a runtime error occurs.
Any assistance on that is highly appreciated.
Rene

Hi Rene,
seems as if your system is on a low support package...
If you go on to SP10 which should be there shortly, then you can also use ZCI in addition to ACF...
Can you check your ADS configuration? See the relevant section on Adobe integration in http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/e86de5008b4d9ae10000000a155369/frameset.htm

Adobe Interactive forms are not editable following an EHP6 upgrade, how do we correct this?

Good day,
We are currently going through an upgrade to EHP6. We have set up a test parallel environment that was copied from prod and applied EHP6 for a compare.
During our initial tests, we have found that Adobe interactive forms are not loading properly following the upgrade. 11 out of the 13 interactive forms currently implemented in the portal are no longer editable. When you go to select a value from the drop-downs or input a value in the field the fields remain blank. This is a high priority as all users perform their PA actions via MSS and through workflow approvals using Abode interactive forms.
Does anyone have any ideas of how to fix this issue or have come across this issue before?
Thanks in advance,
Christine

Hi Christine,
maybe a restart of the ADS-Server helps you out. I can remember a similar case where the restart helped.
IF not, check if you got the latest patch of the ADS, maybe the upgrade of the erp causes this error, because it pass now more data to the ads than before.
IT's just a suggest. Let us know, if that helped you out.

How to use SAP Business Workflow along with Interactive Adobe Form

Hi Experts,
I am working on SAP Business Workflow since last couple of years.
Now i have got a new Project where client wants to use SAP Business Workflow along with Interactive Adobe Form.
I am new to Interactive Adobe Form and Portal thing and i really dont know from where to start.
We have one central system and 2 local systems. when we do create a Material document using adobe form workflow should trigger and notification should go to group of users who can approve or reject it, once they approve it document gets created in central system and replicated to 2 local system through ALE.
In the Local system they do extend the document to different plants, again workflow triggers and notification will go to Managers inbox for the approval.
Once the final approval done data should go and store in SAP.
Now here i have couple of Questions.
1. In SAP R3 Business workflow when i execute the workitem from the inbox i do get the application screen ( i.e. MM01 MRP View ) , what is going to happen if the same case i have with Adobe form?? is it possible or do we have to design a adobe form and we will have to map the fields with backend application??
2. Do i have to maintained 3 separate Org Structure for 3 different system or using UWL i can manage the show
3. Untill final submit is not done, where the application data is going to be, is there any kind of buffer that we will have to keep it or its there with XML file??
Please help me out.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Manoj

Hi Manoj,
Welcome to ADOBE Forms related Workflow Development. Well, here are my answers.
1) You can go for either go for ISR based development or WD development with Adobe form. In both the cases you can achieve your requirement. Yes, you will have to design the Adobe form and bind the fields to backend.
2) Am not clear or your System landscape to advice you in these regards.
3) Until final Submit/Approval is done, the data can be stored in WORKFLOW CONTAINERS or XML FORM(If you go for ISR based Development).
Hope this helps.

Interactive Adobe form is opening slowly on portal

Dear Experts,
We have an interactive Adobe form with java script events to populate the date dynamically in the approval process. We do not have time taking issue in development and having issue in production. The form opened visually but we are getting a message like Downloaded 10.52 of 265B : https://prdix100.com:1100/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/asr_process_execute/"
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?

Database Buffering problem in Interactive Adobe Forms

Hi All,
In our project, there is one interactive adobe form developed to create/update lead data. The lead data from Adobe Form is read using custom class and method of the same class updates the lead. (BOL programming is used to update and create lead. Also, all the Save and Commit statements are used properly).
There is no problem in creating the lead using interactive Adobe Forms. But, when the same lead is updated in the same session using the same adobe form, due to some database buffering issue, system tries to insert duplicate records in CRM_LEAD_H table which is causing error dump - SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC. This dump occurs in update function module CRM_LEAD_H_UPDATE_DU.
If we logged off from the session, the database buffer gets refreshed and lead is updated successfully.
Is there any method/function module to refresh DB buffer before calling the adobe form?
Thanks in advance.

Few fields have reference to table XBT. But when I see this in SE 11, such a table is not existing at all.
Can any of you share some ideas or clues?
Thanks in anticipation.
Regds,
Kiran

Interactive Forms based on Adobe software is SAP's new solution for forms development. Its first release has the focus on interactive use of forms. High-volume printing is supported in principle, but - being a new solution - the performance has not yet reached the same level as Smart Forms or SAPscript, two established solutions that had years to grow. Interactive Forms is the only solution that will continue to be enhanced with new features, while SAPscript and Smart Forms will be supported without limitations.
When (or if) to move to Interactive Forms depends on your requirements. For interactive forms usage, i.e. the new functions, you have no choice, as the existing solutions don't support it. High-volume print scenarios need to be carefully analyzed to see whether your concrete requirements can be met at this point.
However, it is possible to move to Smart Forms and design your forms in such a way that a migration at any point in the future would be but a small step. Smart Forms offers from Web AS 6.40 a migration wizard to Interactive Forms. Technically, everything can be migrated, but we recommend against things like ABAP program nodes, for example.
You are not forced to ever go to Interactive Forms if you don't want to. It really depends on whether your client needs any of the new features in Interactive Forms. Also, if they are currently working with JetForms, they could enquire with Adobe directly what migration path they offer to the joint solution.

example
To get an overview idea about Adobe forms ,
Using SFP Tcode , first you need to create a interface . in interface you can declare the import and export parameters and also the declaration part, coding etc : This is nothing but similar to Function module interface.
And now we have to create the Form which is interactive. Create the form and enter the interface name which you have created in first step, so that the parameters , declarations of fields etc : will be copied and available in the form layout. So that you can drag and drop these declared fields ( dclared fields of interface ) to the layout.
Create the context and layout in the form.
The layout generated can be previewed and saved as PDF output.
Now we need to integrate the driver program and the PDF form to get the final output as per the requirement.
On activating and executing the form you will get a function module name just similar to smartforms.
The driver program needs to call this FM.
Refer to the below sample code :
DATA : is_customer TYPE scustom.
DATA : it_bookings TYPE ty_bookings.
DATA : iv_image_url TYPE string.
DATA : iv_sending_country TYPE adrc-country.
DATA : it_sums TYPE TABLE OF flprice_t.
DATA : docparams TYPE sfpdocparams.
DATA : formoutput TYPE fpformoutput.
DATA : outputparams TYPE sfpoutputparams.

NewLine Character in the String received from Interactive Adobe Form

Hello Experts,
Following is the issue we have with interactive Adobe Form
We have a text area within the form. User enters the text in multiple lines in this text area.
We are calling a backend function module designed in SE37 that accepts and process the data from the adobe form. We are also processing the string data user enters in the text area.
When we receive the string from the form, the newline character within the string is displayed as '#' in the debugger. We tried splitting this string using cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline and cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf but NO luck. Though in the debugger we see cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline as '#' in the debugger and also '#' is present within the string, for some reason when string is processed to find cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline, we can find/locate it.
Because ABAP code is not able to identify the newline character within the string received from Adobe form, we are not able to maintain the formatting of the string as it was entered in the form.
Any help to resolve this issue is appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Bhushan

Hi Bhushan,
I was going through your issue, and I feel this is something you can do with scripting. Basically you should read whole string and find the new line character and replace with a space or comma, as per your requirment.
Do like following:
In the exit event of the field select java script and write following code:
var strng = this.rawValue;
strng.replace(/\n/g, " ");
above im reaplcing new line with a space.
I think it should work I have not tested it. Pls update if you test it .

Interactive Adobe Form's Language Translation

Hi all,
we activated the MSS 60.1 version on the SAP NetWeaver 2004 Enterprise Portal.
We need to activate a link on EP that refers to PCR application. From this link we want to call all the Interactive Adobe Forms associated to the ISR standard scenarios.
Our problem is this: all the standard Adobe Forms are generated in german language. How can we generate them in italian language?
Thanks a lot to all.

Dropdown box for SAP provided Adobe Form is not populating

Hi experts,
I am new to Adobe Interactive Forms. Right now we are using Standard Adobe form for the (PCR) Special Payment. But the drop down box for 'Reason for spl. Payment' is not getting populated. We have defined Reason for special payments in IMG. Also the form 'ISR_FORM_SPSP' has been converted to 'ZCI' format.
Can you please let me know is there anything else I have to configure?
Thanks in advance,
Phani

Hi Antony,
Thank you for the reply. As I said I am using the Standard Adobe form provided by SAP (Special Payment) 'ISR_FORM_SPSP'. On another note ..I am also using the form for Changing working time 'ISR_FORM_SPWT' where the dropdown box for the 'new working time' is getting populated properly. I am new to Interactive Adobe Form so I really don't know where I can find the backend code for this form.
When I go to trasaction 'SFP' I could only see form and the interface being used. Is there a specific BADI that I need to look in? Where can I find the script for the Dropdown UI element.
Please let me know
Thanks
Phani

Submit button within Interactive adobe form

Hi,
We have developed an Interactive adobe form and inserted a submit button within it We have installed ACI also.We tried putting the submit button both within the adobe form body and also within the webdynpro java view. In both the cases pressing the submit button does not result in any action. Please advise on what we are missing. We checked the forums for similar issues and found out that we are abiding by most of it.
thanks
anantharam

Hi Anantharam,
Please create and action in your view and attach it to your Interactive form UI element's onSubmit event. By doing this, whenecver you press the Submit button in the form, this action will be invoked. You can place any methots/code that you want to execute on click of submit button.
If you are using the button outside the form, then you try printing one of the values that you filled in the form which is binded to context. This way you can test.
If you are using WDP activex UI element s in the form then you need to have ACF installed on the machine and also ensure that the displayMode property of Interactive form is set to ActiveX.
Hope this helps!!

Arafat

HCM Interactive Adobe Form hangs on EP 7.

Hi all,
we are developing pay change form for manager to approve pay change request. we currently be able to see a form on the portal and fill in data into interactive adobe form.
However, on the step of check and send, when we click on that step, the process is running forever. No work item created.
If we test in SAP system using test tool, it works fine.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks,
Phon

Hi Phon,
Check out the notes 1101340 and 955795
Or goto transaction SFP, open your adobe form, go to the layout tab Utilities --> Insert Web dynpro Script.
Hope this is the same problem you are facing that I was facing. If it helps then points dont hurt me
Cheers,
Rahul.

Could you please tell me why am i getting this error and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Amit

Abhi
I too got the same error:
WebDynpro Exception: The ADS call has failed. You can find information about the cause in the error.
I refered the link provided by you for testing the ADS configuration and it displayed a 2 page report.
Is that mean that there is a problem in my form?
