Interactive Form - Data Source property confusion!!!

I am making an interactive form where the form gets initialized with some values from Z_GET_DATA function module. The remaining fields are input fields which need to be passed to the Z_SET_DATA function module to post the data in SAP.
Now the issue is that only one node can be defined as the data source of the interative form. If I select the Z_GET_DATA node, then I have to explicitly code to pass values to the SET parameters.
If I select Z_SET_DATA as the data source, then I have to create value attributes inside the Z_SET_DATA node so that I can map those to the GET function module.
IN BRIEF: I WANT TO MAP THE VARIOUS ADOBE FORM FIELDS TO THE GET AND SET NODE PARAMETERS BUT THE PDF SOURCE OBJECT CAN REFER TO ONLY ONE NODE. HOW CAN I OVERCOME THIS SITUATION?

Amol,
Can you eloborate on what "Club Them Together" means?
I have 2 nodes with different attributes under my component controller.
I created a new node under my print view content.
If I drag one of the nodes to this new node, it pulls in all the attributes for this node, but when I try to drag the second one to this same new node, I get an error Node already contains a mapping.
If I create subnodes under this new node, when I try to drag over the nodes from my Context to this subnode, I get the error Mapping is only possible if parent node is mapped.
Best Regards,
Mark

Error in updating Interactive form data

Hi Friends,
I have developed an interactive form using webdynpro ABAP, in the first view I have designed selection criteria based on the selection I am populating the table in second view. Few are editable fields and few are readonly fields.
Here I got the problem after editing the fields when I am trying to save the form it throwing an error that couldnu2019t find attribute But when I am trying to save the form without modifications there was no error.
I would be gratefull for your help!
The following error text was processed in the system CI1 : Could not find attribute ZDATE
The error occurred on the application server bomw045a_CI1_00 and in the work process 0 .
The termination type was: RABAX_STATE
Thanks in advance.

Is that possible there was the field ZDATE in your form interface/ context and now it is not? I guess some source has changed so the field in the form (binding to the not existing field) cannot be processed. Otto

When changing query data source property.....

hello folks,
I have this very weird behavior in oracle forms 10 g R2:
in my form I built a datablock " DB " based on a table " table1 ", in that datablock I added a push button that changed the query data source name of data block DB to " table2 " using the set_block_property() built-in, please note that table1 and table2 has the same structure.
When I query the table2, and if i try to update a record, the updates are not saved and I got the error ora - 0000 , It seems that after changing the query data source to table2, if i try to update a record, the locking is perform to table1 (the original query data source that the datablock is built in the first place) ....
Please can anyone help or explain me this behavior and what can i do to perform a workaround for it,,,,,
and than you in advance...

dear Mark,
What indicates that the record is locked? More information please. well if query the v$lock view or from the EM I can see that the lock is performed on the first table

What is the datasource of your UI interactive forms.
data source is the context of the webdynpro view.
as i described earlier, i am assigning the context when creating the form interface.
once it is done automatically datasource will be binded with context ndoe.
i am getting one more problem,i selected enable check box to become interactive form even though the form is not become interactive why.
even i tried with activex/native both also.
thanks,

Attachments in interactive form

Hi,
In online interactive form if I attache few files in the form and submit the data will these files will be appended in pdfsource of Interactive UI element? I have already tested pdfsource but there are no attachments only form with data is displaying..
Can some one give guide line how to acheive this?
I have gone through following weblogs,
/people/ashwini.kumar4/blog/2008/09/02/demystifying-attachments-in-pdf-in-wd-abap-application-part-ii
https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/pub/wlg/8498. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
But mine is online scenario.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
Yes your attachments will be appeared in the PDF Content i.e., your Data source property contains it.
The entire PDF content will be stored in the Xstring format.
You need to get the attachments from that PDF content.
Then the code written in a FM in the very first blog needs to be used inorder to get the attachments seperately.
I am pasting the same code for your reference. I hope it helps you.

Error while submitting offline Interactive forms to GP

Hello experts,
I get the following exception when i press the 'submit' button of the interactive form. The required configuration is correct and the URL generated is also correct.
"Error while processing document via ADS
com.sap.caf.eu.gp.base.exception.EngineException: Error while processing document via ADS

Any help would be apreciated.

Hi Hanoz,
As you said, I have created an online application with 2 input fields. Name and CostCenter. I am saving the blank pdf on my desktop. In another project i have 2 views. Upload and Form View. In Upload View, using a FileUpload, i am able to fetch the pdf from desktop and on action of submit, it goes to Form view. The Form is opening with the Data which i entered Offline. Thatz because i gave (Interactive Form Mode - "UsePDF". If i give UpdateDatainPDF, it is showing a blank pdf. Hence i used "USEPDF". After that i have a Submit button to which an "ONACTIONsubmit" is mapped to Interactive Form PDF submit property.
OnactionSubmit()
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("hai");
String name = wdContext.currentTravelDataElement().getEmployeeName();
String costcenter = wdContext.currentTravelDataElement().getCostCenter();
wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent().getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Form submitted: Name="+ name+ " costcenter="+ costcenter +"");
PDF
Name - Form
CostCenter - 1000
Initially if i click Submit, Output Comes as ......
hai
Form submitted: Name=null costcenter=null
If i enter some space inside the name field like name - "Form " or even "Forma".....
the output comes as
hai
Form submitted: Name=Form costcenter=1000 (though i have used interactive form mode=usepdf).
or
hai
Form submitted: Name=Forma costcenter=1000 (though i have used interactive form mode=usepdf).
If i enter some value inside the form field, how it is able to take the correct value on action submit. I tried many blogs. But i am not able to fetch the values unless i change the field values inside the form? What else can i do? how did your project work? Can you please help in resolving this issue?
Thanx and Regards,
Divya

How to prevent Pivot Table Data Source from being changed automatically?

I have an excel file that contains a Pivot Table that references a table within the workbook (Data Source = "MyTable"). When I save the file and copy it, the copy contains a reference to the original file. Instead of displaying, "MyTable",
it shows "OldFilename!MyTable" where OldFilename is the name of the original file, not the current file.
How do I prevent this from occurring. It is only doing this on my current machine, if I perform these steps on a different machine, the problem does not occur and the Data Source property stays the same as it should.
What setting(s) do I change to fix this problem?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Multiple Data Source (for FAILOVER) in Easy Connect Naming method

Hi All,
I was wondering if there is a way to specify multiple addresses as part of data source property in the connection string when trying to connect to Oracle with Easy Connect Naming method? this is basically for failover scenario.
I know its straight forward, if i use Connect Descriptor. But not sure how to do it with EZConnect
For ex. this is what I want to achieve with EZConnect
sales.us.example.com=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS_LIST=
(LOAD_BALANCE=off)
(FAILOVER=ON)
*(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=sales1-server)(PORT=1521))*
*(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=sales2-server)(PORT=1521)))*
(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=sales.us.example.com)))
I appreciate your suggestions...
Thanks

You might get better answers in one of the DB forums from a generic fail-over perspective as EZconnect isn't specific to ODP.NET.
I don't know if there's a way to do it or not with EZConnect version of the connect string, but you can certainly provide the fully qualified connect string without using tnsnames.ora..
constring = "data source=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(LOAD_BALANCE=off)(FAILOVER=ON)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=sales1-server)(PORT=1521))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=sales2-server)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=sales.us.example.com))); user id=scott;password=tiger"
Hope it helps,

Interactive Forms Licencing

Hi,
Do I have to pay a licence fee if I :
1. Design and interactive form ( using form designer which comes with NWDS )
2. Submit form value to my custom java program
3. Process interactive form data with my custom Java programs ( probably web service) and use it in workflow using Guided Procedures
( I will not use ADS in any step )
Regards
Abdul.

Hi Abdul,
You don't have to pay for a credential unless you use new Interactive Forms in productive environments.
By new Interactive Forms, I mean new ones, created from scratch or SAP standard with data content modified (for instance, adding a logo is not considered as a modification).
More explanation on this with SAP note 736902.
The Reader rights, enabled by the ADS at runtime, allow data exchange in the form so in your case, no data will be sent to your servlet if the form is not rendered by ADS...
Don't hesitate if you have additional questions,
Regards,
Francois

How to use two RFC models in one Data Source for a Interactive Form UI Elem

Hi
I want to use two RFC models (two Function Modules from a SAP Backend system) in one context node of a View Controller in order to pass it as the data source to a Interactive Form UI element. Can I use the data binding mechanism directly or have I to copy the data into a Value Node within the view controller.
Thanks for helping
René Morel
SAP (Schweiz) AG

Rene,
You can create a local context node in component controller and copy the data from both the RFC's to this node, then bind it to the view controller. Then you can make this view context node as the datasource of the interactive form.

Anand

Create offline interactive forms using webdynpro java with XML data source

Hi Gurus,
I am having a scenario like below:
Sales guy request for order list online from portal- Sytem receives the request and creat XML file- from xml file need to create a Offline interactive form-Sales guy fills it offline at customer site- uploads in portal -on submit xml has to be generated with captured data at customer site-Process to ECC.
So my questions are:
How to create the offline interactive form from XML?
Once filled offline interactive form uploaded into portal how to create XML again from pdf ?
Please give some idea on this as this is my first Offline interactive form using XML datasource.
Thanks
Ravi
Edited by: Ravi Sunkara on Jul 27, 2010 5:25 PM

Hi Otto,
Sorry for replying lately. First of all I did not get your suggestions as your are editing the same posting.
Secondly we will be using WDJ. Actually in between SAP Portal and ECC we are having adobe LCES so we need to create Interactive form using XML only. Once it is filled again the form will be submitted to another application which is running on FLEX, which will process the order.
if you can give me your personal id i can send you the detailed process
Thanks

HI
You cannot just simply convert one string to xstring and then set it in pdfsource to get the pdf.
what is required is little bit lengthy than wht you are doing right now.
you need to use adobe live cycle designer to design the form first and bound the layout UIs there to the context and then
when the pdf wll be generated it will have the data.
1. Go to transaction SFP ad create one interface there with some parameter say data.
2. create a form based on this interface.
3. in the template source property of the UI give the form you have created it will automatically create context for the import
parameter that you have given in the interface.
4. now you need to double click on the interactive form UI to open Adobe live cycle designer to design the layout of the form to
display the data that you will get form the import parameter.
5. pass the required data to the context which is created as the import parameter
these are the steps required to create a PDF form having the data passed by you from the programm dynamically.
here is a link for a demo tutorial.
