Regards,
Lisa.

Hi Lisa,
Yes. You can apply conditions to any of the windows(Not only main) and any of the textelements/Address texts, Tables, Templates.
These are addtional events apart from the Conditions you have defined in the conditions.
Please award for all useful answers.

How to use address node in smart forms

hii all,
can any one tell me how to print the address usin the address node in smartforms....pls explain me in detail...
thank you.

Hi Neelima,
Create a Address Node to print the addres of particular object like vendor, customer, plant, company address etc...
for example vendor address
To Print the address, you need to declare a variable VENDOR_ADRNR TYPE ADRNR in Form interface Import Parameters.
Get the Vendor Address Number from LFA1 Table and pass the value to the form interface parameter when you call the smartform function module in the print program.
Pass this to Address number &VENDOR_ADRNR& in the address number field, then the system will get the address of the vendor automatically.

Smart Forms: Adress nodes

Hi all!
In the adress-node in Smart Forms you can only define the number of lines, that are used for the output. If you use e.g. 4 lines the output looks something like this:
 company name
street 123
city
state
Is it possible to write the adress with the Smart Forms adress-node in only one line, like this?
 company name, street 123, city, state
Best regards,
Stefan

Hi
Use function
ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM How many line u want address u can specify in function.
Address format according to Post Office guidelines
ADDRESS_SHOW_PRINTFORM
see FM documentation.
Note. It's enough to import two parameters:
ADDRESS_TYPE = 1 (Firm or Organization, SAP Address)
ADDRESS_NUMBER
ADDR_GET Get address
Hope this will be useful.

One-Time Customer or Vendor Address Printing in Smart Forms

Hi friends,
I am using the Address Node in Smart Forms to print the Addresses in Tax Invoice Printing. How to get the address details for the One-Time Customers which is stored in the BSEC table using the same Address Function.
(We can directly get the address details from BSEC and display it by using a separate Text Node. But the address formatting according to the recipient country postal standards will be handled only by Address Function in Smart Forms right)

Riaz.

How to create barcode in Smart Forms with MS Word as Editor?

Hi,
I created a character format for a barcode in a smart style.
The problem is that I do not know how to assign it to the text in Smart Form because the Editor is MS Word and not the normal Editor.
Any suggestion or idea.
Thanks & best regards
Viktoria

Hi and thanks for the fast reply,
I have created a smartstyle and also a characterformat for the barcode. This is not the problem.
I call the layout via HRFORMS. The Form Builder for Smart Forms is called and the Editor for the text nodes is preset and is the MS Word editor. This cannot be changed. I tried different things also in the settings. The normal text editor cannot be called.
I choose and enter the field that I want to convert into the barcode &wa_barcode&. I do not work with standard texts (SO10). The text field is a normal text node in Smart Forms. The character format that applies converts the number in the variable field into the barcode.
In the MS word editor I have only formats that are in the office environment (arial, ...) I do not see the formats that I created in smartstyle also when I assign it in the output options of the text node.
So maybe I have to work like this for now. Swich between HRFORMS and SMARTFORMS when working with barcodes. In the Smart Forms transaction it is the normal editor where I can see the paragraph/ character formats from smartstyle.
Thanks and best regards
Viktoria

Smart Form - Printing ouput in 2 columns - 2 main windows ?

Hi All,
I have a situation here to print the output in 2 column display.
It has to work like 2 Main windows concept in SAP script.i.e,., Once the first column completes its printing ( reaches to end of page ) the printing should start from the begin of page of second column.
In other words the 2 columns should work as 2 pages conceptually. But, they will be on same page.
If this is SAP script I can do very easily by defining second main window and the text once over flows automatically populates to second main window.
I found that second main window concept wont work the same in Smart Forms. If there is no second main window concepts, why is it allowing me to have more than my main window is a weird thing for me. It is not even throwing an warning while activating.
Can anyone help me to achieve this 2 column printing? If you are sure that , it wont possible by Smart Forms please let me know that even.
Thanks a lot in advance.

What is the diff b/w Sap Scripts and Smart Forms

Hi,
Whats the diff b/w SAP Scripts and Smart Forms..
I need the internal explanation for both Smart Forms and SAP Scripts mean when we execute what happens whether Print Program r Forms starts execution 1st and SIMILARLY FOR SMARTFORMS WHETHER FM'S R FORMS.
Thanks & Regards,
Gopi.

Hi
Difference with SMARTFORMS vs. SapScript(SE71)
The Following are the differences :-
a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
c) Labels cannot be created in smartforms.
d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
f) Unlike sapscripts (RSTXSCRP), you cannot upload/download Smartform to your local harddisk.
It was said that it was provided in CRM 3.0 version, but not available in R/3. You can download smartforms into Local PC in a XML format. In the same way you can upload this XML format into Smartform. From the smartform editor itself you can call download option, if you are working in CRM 3.0 environment.
In R3 also, you can download into XML format. However, it's not sure about uploading. Refer to the program 'SF_XSF_DEMO'.
In 4.7 Enterprise, other have seen this utlity which is completey missing in 4.6c. There is functionality to downlaod a complete form or only a particular node. (Utilities -> Download form). It will create a XML file and save it in the hard disk.
For others, if you want to download/upload the Smartforms source, you will need the help from the Basis people. What you can do is to create a Transport and then FTP down to your local harddisk. When you need the Smartform source in another system, you have FTP up the Smartforms file back to the SAP server. Finally, the Basis team, will tp it into your system.
g) The protect and endprotect command in sapscript doesn't work with smartforms. For example on a invoice: First data of position no 80. is printed on page one, other data of position no 80 is printed on page 2. And there's nothing you can do about it. Actually, there is something you can do about it. By using a folder node and checking the 'protect' checkbox, everything in that folder will be page protected.
