Interactive Adobe Forms - Description in list box in Display mode

Hi All,
We are working with Adobe Interactive Forms.
There is a list box for States that is bound to the REGION field in IT0006.
When I choose a value in the combo box for Stateu2026 and click on Check and Send all fields become readOnly and are displayed for reviewu2026 in this step the combo boxes display the actual value instead of the text (eg shows the 2 character code for a state instead of description)u2026 how can I make sure that the  form displays the description even in the readonly mode?
In the Binding properties, I have set Item Text as "text" and Item Key as "key". This does not work. Is there any other setting to be made?
Regards,
Priya

have you tried using a drop down box instead? I have several drop downs I use on 1 form - they're all bound directly to the backend and work fine.

  • Webdynpro for ABAP - interactive Adobe form - drop down lists not working

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to create an interactive form for a client using webdynpro for ABAP and I've viewed the demo "Create SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe with Web Dynpro for ABAP" by Thomas Jung, but when I implement it the form following similar steps the form is not interactive.
    In the properties of the "InterativeForm", I've tried clicking the "enabled" flag both on and off.  I've also tried setting the "displayType" property to both "ActiveX" and "Native".  But none of this worked.
    I though my problem might be with Adobe reader so I switched from 8.0 back to 7.0 but this didn't make any difference either.
    The system we are using is NW04s WAS 700.  Any hints would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    -tom

    Thanks for the suggestion Dezso.  I've downloaded a newer version of ACF as indicated by the OSS note and installed it.  I'm still having the same issue.
    My basic question is what options should I be using in the form and on the InteractiveForm component?  It looks like because of the evolution of the product there are multiple options available.  I recall reading somewhere that as of a certain SP level we should have ZCI (zero client install) available.  The would be our preference.  It will be a support nightmare if each user needed a manual download of ACF.exe installed.
    Should I click the "enabled" flag on the InteractiveForm object?  When I create the form should I use the "Native" drop down list or the one from the "Active X" tab?  I would like to use the "List Box" control on the form as well but it is only available in the "Standard" tab.  So does that mean I can't get the selections from a "List Box"?
    Thanks,-tom

    got rid of it by setting the value of TYPE property of attribue to "MAXLENGTH" , uporn doing this the drop down and the discription text is displaying only  last 3 char of the values.
    I tried increasing the size/characters of the fields in the table in the form but was of no use. Any inputs will be Appreciated

  • Contradiction form error in non interactive adobe forms.

    HI All,
    I am woriking on a non interactive adobe forms generation program in ABAP.
    The program uses a variant and generate pdf forms for all the list items on the varient.
    Note: I am not using Webdynpro its the normal pdf generation.
    The problem I am facing is that when the varient has a list of more records at some point of time it generates the contradiction form error and terminates. if I alter the varient so that the list is minimal then there is no problem with that.
    I know that the Contradiction form error occurs when the pdf generation is open and there is another request to open a new form before closing the previous call. but when the varient has minimal data there is no problem with that, my assumption here is the data volume or such which causes the problem.
    Does somebody came accross such an issue earlier or if you have a solution approach please do share it with me.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Sai Krishna.

    It will be sent to the employee UWL through workflow for verification in read only form where he can add his comments in the comments box.Once he agrees with the objectives and submits the form it sits in the UWL of managers.
    After six months there will be revision of Objective Setting if required by manager and employee with same as above process.
    Objective Setting should be freezed after approval.
    At the end of the year, the final appraisal form is agreed with employees and manager an approval from manager should send to the next level line manager UWL using workflows.
    I have built the webdynpro application with an interactive adobe appraisal form , but how to trigger the Workflow from the adobe form and what are the steps i need to customize for the above process and store the appraisal form after the second line managers approval??
    Are these available in standard workflows provided by SAP? Or do I need customization?

  • Interactive Adobe Form and Search Helps

    Does anyone know how to implement a Search Help in an Interactive Adobe Form?  I have a requirement to fill a field with a manager and I have 17500 of them to choose from!  Tried a Dropdown list, but it is not really appropriate, unless theres a way of entering a wildcard in the input field and using it to limit the dropdown list.
    I am implementing the Transfer Request PCR SPTR in MSS 60.1, this PCR Adobe form is not delivered by SAP and I need to develop it.

  • 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.
    Regards

  • Multiple images into a subform in a dynamic non-interactive adobe form

    I want to convert a set of images into a PDF (one page for each image) with Webdynpro. I'm trying with a non-interactive adobe form.
    I followed the tutorial "Dynamic Non-Interactive PDF Form".
    I've got a multiple Context node: 'Images' with a string attribute 'url' for each image.
    In the form, I've created subform1, and subform2 within. I put an image field into subform2, setting its url to: $record.Images[*].url
    and its script to: this.value.image.href = xfa.resolveNode(this.value.image.href).value;
    It doesn't work.
    If I add a field into subform2 binding it to url attribute, I can see some lines with the correct path for each image, but the image isn't displayed.
    It works with a single dynamic image in the page. What am I doing wrong?
    Regards
    Anibal Pozo.

    No. It's form scripting. In any case I'm working with Webdynpro Java.
    I tried this code in table 'initialize' event.
    for int=0 upto $record.nImages do
    Table1.Row1[int].ImageField.value.image.href = $record.Images[int].url;
    Table1.Row1[int].Cell4.value.#image.href = $record.Images[int].url;
    endfor
    Cell4 is a static image.
    In 04SP9, it show always the same image in the image field (first column), and alternating image in cell4 (second column).
    In 04sSP6, it shows always the same image in all the rows in both columns.
    Any idea? I didn't find any OSS related.
