Migrate PO output from Sapscript to Smartform

Hi,
I'll be migrating ZZMEDRUCK (customized copy of the standard form)that is in sapscript to smartform. I'll be doing this manually since some of the layout/format was changed by the user. Now do i have to create a new print program aside from the ZZSAPFM06P so that it will call the new smartform that i will make? Do i have to create a new output type? Or i dont have to do this and just change the configuration in M/34?
Thanks a lot.

TCode smartforms--> Utilities --> Migrate SAPScript form
This will copy hte SAP Script form into smart forms.
But this will not solve the purpose.
YOu will have to map the print program accordingly.
Hope this helps.
Please reward if useful
thnx

Application form EFRM : from Sapscript to Smartform

Dear all,
I want to link an existing application form with Sapscript (Trans. EFRM) to a Smatform.
(So, I want to use my EFRM with a Smartform instead of a Sapscript)
Is it possible... (I don't want to copy manually my EFRM ;o)
Nicolas

Snif ... it's not possible. Aaaaaaaaaaaah
See documentation of data element EFG_DTE_FORMTYPE
Type of Application Form
States whether the form is an application form to be prepared by a SAPscript or SmartForm.
Use
The form type is assigned when you create the application form and you cannot change it.

Change purchasing output control (from sapscript to smartform) Qusetion!

I want to print a Purchasing Documents by smartform.So i look for system standard program "SAPFM06P"->FORM ENTRY_NEU.
In this form i found 2 function:'ME_READ_PO_FOR_PRINTING' and 'ME_PRINT_PO'. who can tell me the useful of function?(is it standard print function to sapscript?)
thanks

Hi
These are the Std function modules that are used in print programs
'ME_READ_PO_FOR_PRINTING'
will fetch the data from different PO related tables that is required for the script/smartform printing
and 'ME_PRINT_PO' the fun module will print the PO printing.
go to the respective fun modules source code and can find the more logic and documentation for them

How to check what fields are output from ABAP to smartform

Hi All,
I am working on a Zcopy of RLB_INVOICE smart form and need to check what fields are being output to the vendor_address window in the smartform.
I have examined the NACE setup and found "Medium -> printoutput", "Program -> ZRLB_INVOICE", "Form Routine -> "ENTRY_INS", "Form -> ZRLB_INVOICE", "PDF/SmartForm -> ZRLB_INVOICE".
Where would I find the code that shows the direct correlation between the driver program and a specific element of the smart form.
All I need to check is that all elements of the venfore address are being sent to the form as I am hearing reports that we are missing house number on the printed output.
Many thanks

Hi Meenakshi,
First you find out your driver program. Here in your case it is ZRLB_INVOICE. Then within that check where address of the vendor is found and is assigned to which import parameter of the smartform.
Check your smartform also. Find which all fields are being printed in that. If vendor_address window is an address window, then there will be uniques identifier passed to that window from the driver program.

Abijith

Change VL70 to Smartform (from SapScript)

I need to change the form output on VL70 from SapScript to SmartForm. I converted the SAPscript to a SmartForm but I can't figure out where the SAPscript is being called from to call the new SmartForm. If anybody could give me some assistance I would be grateful.
Regards,
Davis

Hi,
Sap script will have a Driver program, and this both Driver program and Script will be configured in the NACE transaction, so for this smartform you need a Driver program to call the Smartform(Generate the function module and call the function module) ..
Look at this one

What SAP recommends in ECC 6. Either SAPSCRIPT or SMARTFORMS?

Hi all,
I want to know, what is the SAP's recommendation in ECC 6.0, whether to use sapscripts or smartforms for the important form print outs like purchase order, quotation, GR, GI, invoice, delivery note.
I knew that in ECC 6.0, for some cases, there are both sapscript and smartforms available, for example Purchase order, Delivery note, invoice etc. In this case what is the SAP's recommendation? to use sapscripts or smartforms??
I heard that SAP does recommend.
Awaiting your reply,
Balaji

Hi
These are few lines from sap help:
Smart Forms replace SAPscript forms. SAPscript forms will still be supported in the future; you can use them without making any changes for years to come. You can even use SAPscript texts in the Smart Forms.
Migration of SAPscript forms into Smart Forms is supported.
Even go through this link :

Sapscripts To Smartforms (Paragraph problem)

Hi everyone,
It' possible to convert automatically, all the paragraphs from one SAPscript to a Smartform style or similar?.
My problem is that i have 60 o 70 paragraphs in the SAPscript and i'm searching a automatic process for migrate them to a Smartform.
Greetings.

Hi,
If you are talking of Styles then goto tcode SMARTSTYLES -> UTILITIES -> Convert SAPScript Styles.
If you are talking of paragraphs as in SAPSCript then goto Tcode SMARTFORMS ->UTILITIES -> Convert SAPScript.
Regards,
Amit
Reward all helpful answers.
Yeah, by formats means styles, so if you want you can also convert the styles too from SAPScript by using other method or delete the current one and choose any from smartform styles.

Discoverer report - Output from Discoverer plus is not the same as Discoverer desktop

As a part of Upgrade project we are migrating the discoverer reports from 11i (11.5.10.2) to R12 (12.1.3) .After migrating to R12, for a custom discoverer report the output given by discoverer desktop is correct (24 rows for a scenario). But the report output from Discoverer plus does not show the credit transactions (2 rows). The output from Discoverer plus shows only 22 rows (24 - 2), which is incorrect. The query is the same in Discoverer desktop and Discoverer plus.
Please let me know why these transactions that are appearing when the report is run from discoverer desktop are not appearing in discoverer plus. Is there any setup in discoverer plus for this?
Regards,
Brajesh

Pretty hard to answer a question like this. Best bet would be to copy the existing discoverer plus book and start removing conditions, fields, etc until those two rows from desktop show up and see if you can work it out.

Best Practice for Migration of BO from one server to another

Hi All,
I would like to know what is the Best pratice for Migration of BO from One server to another.
i have Installed BO Xi R2 on my server.
Thanks,
Anendu Bothra
Edited by: Anendu Bothra on Mar 5, 2009 10:24 AM

You need to copy your input and output file stores from the old server to the new server. By default these are located in the <Business Objects install path>\FileStore directory.
Then you need to stop the CMS, Right click the CMS,Click the Configuration tab, and then click Specify.
Choose Copy, then click OK.
Choose the version information for the source CMS database.
Select the database type for the source CMS database, and then specify
its database information (including host name, user name, and password).
Select the database type for the destination CMS database, and then
specify its database information (including host name, user name, and
password).
When the CMS database has finished copying, click OK.
Once this process has been completed start the CMS and click on update objects -> located on the top of the CCM.
I'd advise taking full backups beforehand.
