Migration of JSP forms into adobe forms for PCRs

Hi All,
I am working on Upgrade project for ESS/MSS. Our client had JSP based PCRs which we need to migrate into adobe based PCRs.
i have few questions regarding this migration.
Has someone the experience to migrate a JSP based PCR into Adobe based PCR?
How much effort the migration will take, and can we fully reuse ISR configuration and workflow?
Thanks,
Ankur

If you are using the SAP delivered JSP forms - there maybe equivalent SAP delivered Adobe based PCRs in the next ESS/MSS releases that you can use instead of migrating the forms
I am not aware of any tools or documentation that help to migrate custom JSPs to custom Adobe forms
As I see it you would have to create new Adobe based versions of your JSP PCRs - I am vaguely aware of a guide entitled
"Developing Your Own Personnel Change Requests" for ERP2004 - however I am not sure how you would obtain a copy
or whether this approach is recommended, supported or complete - this documentation would detail how to create an ISR based Adobe form
At the same time there may be restrictions as to what standard JSP forms are available as standard Adobe forms and what can be configured in the ISR scenarios (for example use of Value Help in WD JAVA Adobe scenarios)
- SAP have been recommending instead of creating say a ISR based Adobe form for WD JAVA to
use HCM processes and forms (also available in the MSS role) going forward
- HCM processes and forms is WD ABAP based framework using Adobe which allows users to create custom Adobe forms which update back-end infotypes directly from the Portal - also such scenarios as Value Help etc may be possible (or more easily achieved)
Best wishes

Hi, How can import my forms into adobe in-design? or Adobe professional so I can continue populate them locally?

is there a way to bring these forms into adobe indesign or adobe acrobat professional or nitro and make them editable/fillible so I don't have to recreate them from scratch?! please advice. thanks

If you want to process those files in the software that you have already you will need to use DNG converter 8.3 or newer to create digital negative copies of your raw files. If you upgraded your Lightroom to Lightroom 5.3 or newer you would be able to open the original raw files. I am not familiar enough with Photoshop Elements to tell you for sure what version you need. But it has to be compatible with Camera Raw 8.3 or newer in order to open the files from your camera.

How can I embed an DOCTYPE HTML Form from Adobe Forms central into a responsive html5 page?

Hi,
You can embed the form on your website, but you need to make sure that javascript has been enabled in the browser. You need to copy the embed code and add it into your HTML code. If you would like FormsCentral to generate embeded HTML form without using javascript, you may post a feature request and vote it. Hope it helps! Thanks!

How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central.

How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central. It's for an online Diet Questionnaire. After people complete the form I'd like them to click "SUBMIT" and the completed form will be emailed to me.

This can be a bit confusing because Acrobat 11 comes with the desktop app that allows you to create simple PDF forms without having a FormsCentral account. Some people find this helpful, but you need to understand that when you generate the PDF form, it is Reader-enabled by Acrobat. In order to edit the form further in Acrobat, you have to create a non-enabled copy of the form. You do this in Acrobat by opening the form and selecting: File > Save a Copy
and opening the copy. It is not opened automatically.
You can now add a button and set it up to submit by email, either using a "Submit a form" action or the submitForm JavaScript method. You can set it up to include just the form data or the entire PDF, and will want to use a mailto type URL. Submitting the form to the FormsCentral server has a number of important advantages over email (much more reliable, more secure, etc.), so you might want to consider it.
If the form needs to be saved with Reader versions prior to 11, then you will need to Reader-enable the document. In Acrobat 11 you do this by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools

Integrating mutiple forms into one form using tab canvas

Hi everyone,
I'm relatively new to Forms 6.0 and also to this discussion. Could somebody please explain the pros/cons while integrating 8 maintenance forms into one form(Each page in the tab canvas representing one form)?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Aruna

If the maintenance forms are small, you can integrate them into a single form with a tab canvas, although 8 may prove difficult--try it and see what it looks like to have eight tab pages. Make sure the first block and field in the form navigator is the field you want to show at startup.
You would use multiple forms (1) to modularize largish chunks of complex code that don't interact with each other (2) to decouple logically separate applications (3) to decouple reusable modules that you can then pop into other applications (4) to create shareable components to share through an object library into base forms.
In your case, the main issue is the logical separation with reusability also raising its head. Each form is logically distinct for maintaining a specific set of tables, so putting it in a separate form makes sense. It would also allow you to reuse the maintenance forms in different applications without including everything. This might be a security issue, for example--some apps might need access to only some of the 8 forms.
Tab pages are also not as easily formatted as you might like, so check it out before assuming that tab page interfaces in Forms are your solution.

Hi, i had created a form on adobe forms central, but i don't have access to the results now. any help would be appreciated.

Hi massif76198910,
I don't see that you had a paid FormsCentral account. Were you using the free account? If so, you should still have access to the form until FormsCentral is retired on July 28 2015,
Are you able to log in? Or do you get an error when you try to log in to your account? Please try clearing the browser cache, or logging in via a different browser.
Best,

New document alert: How to get PDF documents into Adobe Reader for iOS

Opening PDF Files in Reader for iOS (iPhone and iPad) has been very helpful to many users of Adobe Reader for iOS. However, Apple has drastically changed the user interface in iOS 7, which made the original document obsolete.
According to Apple Developer Support's App Store Distribution page, 89% of devices connected to the App Store are using iOS 7 during a 7‑day period ending June 29, 2014.
Because of the exceptionally high iOS 7 adoption rate, Adobe Reader for iOS version 11.3 now supports iOS 7 only.
Here are the new How-To documents for iOS 7.
How to get PDF documents into Adobe Reader for iOS (iPad on iOS 7 version)
How to get PDF documents into Adobe Reader for iOS (iPhone on iOS 7 version)
(It had to be split into two separate documents because each contains way too many screenshots.)
Hope these documents are as helpful as the original one.
Please let us know if you have any feedback or suggestions on the topics for other help documents/tutorials.

Dennis (or any Adobe rep),
Any updates to the OP's question? I'm with a large government agency, and we're moving away from GoodReader for reasons I can't go into here, and the ability to add user-defined bookmarks within the app is a mandatory feature for the document reader we select. I have the latest version of Adobe Reader (11.6.1) installed on my government iPad, and the ability to add user-defined bookmarks still seems to be missing. Does Adobe have any plans to add this feature, or is it already present and I'm simply overlooking it?
Thanks,
Cam

From your question, I take it you have Photoshop Elements 5.0.
You should ask over in the Photoshop Elements forum how to restore catalogs. I hope you have back ups of your images because the organizer doesn't physically store your images.

Does anyone has more information?
