Is it possible to create Adobe Interactive form in ECC 5.0 IDES using WDA?

Hi every body,
I am trying to create an adobe interactive form in ECC 5.0 IDES using Web Dynpro for ABAP. But I am facing some configuration problems. My doubt here is -> "Is it possible to create abobe interactive forms in ECC 5.0 IDES using Web Dynpro for ABAP ?"
Please help me out.
thanks in advance,
best regards,
naveen.

Hi Naveen,
ECC 5.0 is NW04 - not NW04s so you don't have WDA at all as you should be able to see from e.g. it not appearing in the list of possible programming objects in transaction SE80.
You'd need ECC 6.0.
Double-check your SAP_BASIS release in menu System > Status > Component Information. If it says 6.40 then that's no good... you need to be on 7.00.
You can still use Java WebDynpro with ECC 5.0 of course.

Jocelyn

How to create Adobe Interactive Form in MDM

Iam new to MDM Technology, I want to create Adobe Interactive Form and show a sample demo.
Sample demo which should show adobe interactive form in mdm and how to integrate adobe interactive form in mdm and how to update th data in MDM
I have knowledge of creation of adobe form but how to integrate with mdm technology.

Hi,
There are couple of ways to integrate MDM with SAP Interactive Forms.
1. WebDynpro Java and MDM API (requires Portal)
2. MDM WebService (Portal not required)
Updating data in MDM using WebDynpro Java :
1. In Component Controller -> Fetch data from MDM using API and populate appropriate context structure
2. Map the View Controller and Comp Controller context.
3. Place Interactive Form UI element in view.(Keep the UI element in UpdatePDF mode, this can be done in properties window. Also increase the height and width property value)
4. The Interactive Form UI element is editable in Adobe Form Designer (7.1 / 8.0)
5. Design the form and bind the UI (TextFields/ Dropdowns) with the Context of View Controller.(Done in Binding tab of Object window)
6. Deploy and run the application.
The rendered application will contain an Adobe Interactive Form populated with MDM data.

Using Adobe Interactive Forms in ECC

is it possible to leverage existing HR Admin Services (HCM processes and Forms) functionality without using the Enterprise Portal?
1) Create an Adobe form and Interface using SFP
2) Set up ISR and Form Scenario
3) Set up Forms configuration to use existing Backend and generic Services
4) Set up workflow to updated Backend using Services
is it possible to do the above steps and not use the Portal? If Yes, how do we present the forms to the Manager, and provide different buttons that appears on the Portal by default?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Saurabh

There is an option for this built it. It is in the config for Enhanced Messages->Enhanced Notification. Basically, you can have the work items show up in the approvers email (instead of UWL). The email will have a link which will launch the "Form Applicaiton". However, I have not seen anything that allows you to INITIATE a process without the Start Application doing so in the portal.

GP and WD with Adobe Interactive form question - need some guidance.

Hello experts,
FYI, I'm running ECC 5.0 Support Stack 9, EP 7.0 SPS 11, NWDS 2.0.9_15 with Adobe Livecyle Designer.
I am slightly stuck with what I'm trying to do. I have created a web dynpro application that has an Adobe interactive form. I'm trying to use guided procedures to initiate a process so that this interactive form can be filled out and submitted to an approver. I need the relevant parties to receive a notification email. I have setup email templates and services, I just need to know how it will fit into the process. Once approved in the process, a BAPI should be invoked to populate some fields in the form. Should I be creating the Web Dynpro application to invoke the bapi or should a guided procedure callable object invoke the bapi? I know how to do these things, but I dont know which method I should use, in order to correctly have this process flow from point A - point B. Should the process appear in the Universal Worklist? If not, why not? Will it only appear in the GP runtime? I have pretty much read thru most of the tutorials but still cannot get this GP stuff to work as a WHOLE process.
Any guidance, suggestions, possible solutions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Kunal.

Hi,
It seems you have not activated the Composite Form object. Only after activation you will be able to use it to create a Callable Object of type composite form.
Hope this helps,

Generate Adobe Interactive Form in background and setpdfSource value.

Hi,
Is there any way to create Adobe Interactive Form in the background assigning R/3 data (without displaying) and assign pdfSource binary information in context attribute and later, display Adobe Interactive Form using pdfSource context attribute in a new window?
if Adobe Interactive Form is in Visible state, I'm also able to display Adobe Interactive Form in a new window using pdfSource binary context attribute, .
But, unable to create Adobe Interactive form in the background when Adobe Interactive Form Visibility is NONE and unable to assign binary data to pdfSource attribute in context and hence unable to display Adobe Interactive Form in a new window. Kindly help me if this process is possible.
Thank you in advance.
Regards
Prasad

Hi Prasad,
This is certainly possible. First populate the dataSource context node with the data (e.g. coming from R/3). Then use <a href="http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/adobe/api/WDInteractiveFormHelper.html">WDInteractiveFormHelper.getContextDataAsStream</a> to obtain the data.xml as a byte[] by calling toByteArray() on the ByteArrayOutputStream. The next step is to obtain the xdp template as a byte[] (I don't know exactly how to do this, but it's certainly possible using some API, just as you would read other resources deployed within your Web Dynpro). When you have both the template and the data, you can use the <a href="http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/adobe/pdfdocument/api/package-summary.html">PDFDocument</a> API to render a PDF, something as <i>WDPDFDocumentFactory.getDocumentHandler().getDocumentContext().getDocumentCreationContext()</i>; set the data and the template and other options like interactive, call execute and retrieve the pdf byte[] from the returned object. Eventually you can assign the pdf byte[] to the pdfSource context attribute. In case you use NW04, you must use the <a href="http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/pdfobject/api/package-summary.html">PDFObject</a> instead.
Besides, why would you want to create the PDF before displaying it?
Kind regards,
Sigiswald

Adobe Interactive Form is displayed in Read Only mode

Hi All,
I created Adobe Interactive Form in SFP.
The following properties are set to the form.
Layout Type -ZCI Layout
Preview Type - Interactive Form
XDP Preview Format - Acrobat 7.0.5 Dynamic PDF
In PDF preview tab, I can enter data into the Text Fields.
I added this form in a web dynpro ABAP application using Interactive Form UI element.
The following properties are set to the UI element.
DataSource - bound to the context
displayType - native
enabled - checked
templateSource - Formname
readonly - unchecked.
When I run this application, the form is displayed in readonly mode.
I can't enter any data into the text field.
Any of you guys know that how to resolve this?
Thanks
Thruna

Hi,
I already face the same issue and after several days working on this issue and many hours on debugging it seems that interface type is very important if you want to use the form in WD4A (this requirement is confirmed by SAP thru an OSS message for me )
Does the interface based on DDIC or XML ?
If it's a DDIC interface , sorry that can't works in WD4A as interactive forms. You must define the interface as based on XML for this .
Hope this help you.
PS : Finally ,as my forms was very complicated my customer decide to not make it available in WD4A .....

Hi Satheesh,
1. Check the Adobe form Version (from 7.1 to 8)
2. Installed Adobe form Extended Language Support Font Pack to Adobe ,if you are using some other language in Adobe form
3. Check the ADS Version.

Search Help on Adobe Interactive Form with Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi All,
I have created Adobe Interactive Form with ZCI type and XML based interface type using Webdynpro ABAP.
I placed a text field USER_NAME on the form ( data element is linked to search help USER_COMP ).
Added Native WD UI element 'Value Help' to form to search for users and changed script
*var fieldName = "INSERT_NAME_HERE*"; to var fieldName = "USER_NAME";
The problem is that when I click on the value help button, nothing happens.
Is any more additional steps required ?

Do you tell me how to hide elements in the "adobe_form" in the WDP ABAP? How can I get the elements attributes in the "adobe_form" from the method WDDOMODIFY of the second_view in the WDP ABAP.
Please give me some hints on this. Do you give me some ways to implement functions( hide elements and get elements's attributes)? Thanks a lot.
