Page break for Smartform with multiple main window on pages

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement for printing 3 pages. The difference among the 3 pages is the main window part.
The main window contains not only internal table, also complicated texts like payment instructions etc.
The requirement is in each page, the data in internal table should be changed, also payment instruction should be changed accordingly.
e.g:
Main Window of Page 1
Part 1 for Internal table
VAT on ITEM ------- 4O-------60,00------0.00%-------EUR
Part 2 for Payment Instructions
Texts for Page 1
Main Window of Page 2
Part 1 for Internal table
VAT on ITEM ------- 5O-------60,00------0.00%-------EUR
Part 2 for Payment Instructions
Texts for Page 2
Main Window of Page 3
Part 1 for Internal table
VAT on ITEM ------- 6O-------60,00------0.00%-------EUR
Part 2 for Payment Instructions
Texts for Page 3
At first, I was using only one page 'Page1' with a variable page_no = 1 as default value, and use program line page_no = page_no + 1 as counter. when page_no = 2, use command for force page break to 'Page1', then under the command, change the internal table and payment instruction texts. when page_no = 3, ...
But I encountered an error saying:
Runtime Errors GEN_BRANCHOFFSET_LIMIT_REACHED
Short text
Jump distance is too large and cannot be generated.
So I created 3 pages, with different main window M_window1, M_window2, M_window3 for each page. In page1, after printing the M_window1, page_no = 2, use command to go to page2, but page2 is never printed. I think this is because only one main window can exist in a smartform? but why smartform allows creating individual main window for different pages? what's the use of such main window?
By the way, what's the use of command for force page break? only work for one main window in a smartform?
Getting back to my requirement, I think I should still use one page and command for page break. I am trying to solve this.
Thanks.
Li Jun Da.

Now I am using 3 pages: Page 1, Page 2, Page 3.
Page 2, Page 3 are copies of Page 1 with main window renamed as second window: mw 2, mw 3.
I also created 2 command nodes in main window of page 1: cmd 2, cmd 3.
cmd 2 is for page break to Page 2, cmd 3 is for page break to Page 3.
The second window mw 2, mw 3 in Page 2, Page 3 can be displayed.
Even though, I still can't understand how main window of pages (not 1st page) can work.

How to insert a page break in smartform

hi all
i have to print only ten records per page. Is there anyway to insert a page break in smart forms?????

hi
To insert a page-break you have to Create a Node Called COMMAND.
Here you can Specify a Different PAGE as next page if u want.
Smartforms: protect lines in main window.
It was easy with SAPscript, but how to do it with SF's. For 4.7 version if you are using tables, there are two options for protection against line break:
- You can protect a line type against page break.
- You can protect several table lines against page break for output in the main area.
Protection against page break for line types
- Double-click on your table node and choose the Table tab page.
- Switch to the detail view by choosing the Details pushbutton.
- Set the Protection against page break checkbox in the table for the relevant line type. Table lines that use this line type are output on one page.
Protection against page break for several table lines
- Expand the main area of your table node in the navigation tree.
- Insert a file node for the table lines to be protected in the main area.
- If you have already created table lines in the main area, you can put the lines that you want to protect again page break under the file using Drag&Drop. Otherwise, create the table lines as subnodes of the file.
- Choose the Output Options tab page of the file node and set the Page Protection option. All table lines that are in the file with the Page Protection option set are output on one page.
In 4.6, Alternatively in a paragraph format use the Page protection attribute to determine whether or not to display a paragraph completely on one page. Mark it if you want to avoid that a paragraph is split up by a page break. If on the current page (only in the main window) there is not enough space left for the paragraph, the entire paragraph appears on the next page.

               value     321.21
               value     982.98
               value     some value

footer details
Is this possible using smartforms?
Now they are using a classical report and takes printout in preprinted stationery.
requirement is to develop a smartform for this. there is a selection screen for the print program which accepts billing docs.
Thanks,

Rajiv,
Actually for your case you don't need a table inside the Main Window.
1.) First Populate all the data(header + item) in an internal table in the print program itself.
2.) Pass this internal table to the smartform.
3.) In the smartform give exact dimensions to the main window.
4.) In the Main Window Use a Loop on this internal table.
5.) Create a template for the header data giving the exact dimensions.
6.) Create another template for the item data giving exact dimensions to the template.
7.) If there is pre-printed text between these templates, insert a text element between these templates. This text element will have nothing just give a paragraph format to it. Go to smartstyle, create a style in which create a paragraph format setting line spacing parameter of this paragraph format of the same size as that of pre-printed text.
8.) Only 1 page is required since Loop statement will print the second record on the second page if the dimension of templates are exact.
9.) Dimensions you can easily measure from the pre-printed form.

Table footer when page break in smartform

I put a table component into a loop control, and in the table footer, there are some texts in several lines and a command component.
the problem is that, when there's not enough space to print the whole table footer texts in one page, the extra part of will be output in the next 2 pages.
for example, I suppose there are 3 pages totally. and for the first page, it's all right about the main window. when there's no enough space, the footer is still output, the rest is printed on the 2nd page. but on the 3rd page, the footer texts in the 2nd page is output again and followed main windows on the 3rd page.
Could anyone help? Thank you in advance.

Hi ALI,
When you are using command to trigger new page( In that you have to check the check box 'Go to new page' ) In this case the the main window name of the first page and the next page shoul be same.If it is different then it will not trigger the main window of the next page. It displays the details of all other windows but main window details will not be displayed. Check this once.

Create coustom page size for Smartforms

Dear All
How to create coustom page size for smartforms.

HI
To define a new page format, choose
Administration -> CCMS -> Print->® Spool Administration.
Choose Full Administration and then Page Formats on the Device Types tab page. On the next screen choose Change and Create or Create with Reference. Fill out the fields on the next screen.
Activating a New Page Format
Before using a new page format, you must specify it as a page format in a SAPscript form. Be careful when replacing a page format in a standard SAPscript form as the form may not necessarily fit on the new page format.
You also have to define a format and device type format for the new page format before you can use it.

How to Restrict Single Delivery Date for PO with Multiple Line Items

Dear Experts,
How to Restrict Single Delivery Date for PO with Multiple Line Items.
System needs to through Error Message if User Inputs Different Delivery Dates for PO with Multiple Line Items in ME21N Tcode.
Can we achive this by Some Enhancement in SAP or Not ???
If so how to do it.
Any Inputs is highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Selvakumar. M

Hi Selvakumar,
we can resrict the PO to have a single delivery date in all the line items by means of giving a error message or overwiting the delivery date keyed/determined in the line item.
You can use the BADI -> ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST. In which you need to implement the method PROCESS_SCHEDULE.
(for technical aid - This method will be called for each and every PO line item, From the imporing parameter im_schedule we can get all the details of current PO line, even we can change the data in the current PO line. )

Hi,
I need to add a page break for one of two category groups of a my chart. Is it possible, please?
I need to create a chart for this category group to mantain readable the report.
Thanks

Hi There
You can create two graphs and put them inside two separate rectangles and add page break
after first rectangle and add a filter to your chart for first category group for first chart and second category group for second chart.
This is best you can do
If you have any question please let me know.

Partial goods receipt for PO with multiple line items

Hello All,
While doing MIGO, for a PO with multiple line items, if one line item is having error, will we be able to go ahead with goods receipt? Or entire material document is blocked for doing MIGO?
We will be doing a development - in case if there is problem in goods receipt (checking of any parameter, and if it is missing - we will be posting error message)...is it possible to ahead with next line item and still post the material document?
If partial goods receipt if possible for PO with multiple line items, how do we do it?
Regards,
RJS

Hi
While doing MIGO, for a PO with multiple line items, if one line item is having error, will we be able to go ahead with goods receipt? Or entire material document is blocked for doing MIGO?
No. You cannot post the MIGO, if even one of the PO line item is having problem or giving error.
We will be doing a development - in case if there is problem in goods receipt (checking of any parameter, and if it is missing - we will be posting error message)...is it possible to ahead with next line item and still post the material document?
If you skip a line irem and do GR with next line item, how will you match quantity & value with the vendor Invoice at LIV ?
If partial goods receipt if possible for PO with multiple line items, how do we do it?
Partial goods receipt is possible for PO line items. That means, if PO has 100 qty for line item 1 then you can do GR for 50 now and 50 later depending on the vendors delivery.
Hope this is what you mean by "Partial Goods Receipt".

Page breaks in form - can't print only one page?

Hi guys
This might be a really simple question - but how do I insert page breaks into my form?
I have 8 pages in my document, and it is showing me this, so there seems to be no issue until I try to print only one page, and the whole document prints out.
Is there an easy fix to this?
Cheers
Jess

Hi,
how are you printing? Control+P? File > Print? or a Print button?
In any case the print command should bring up a print dialog, where you can set the pages that you want Acrobat to print. By default it is set to 'All' pages.
Hope that helps,
Niall

Regards,
Udupi

Hello ,
To print the text below are following steps which you can follow for your requirement :
1. Create the Four pages having the Main Window, but take care that Logic should be in First Page Main window only , other pages main window will be blank.
2. Create the Secondary Window in second, third & fourth page which will be same size as the main window having the text which need to be print in respective pages.
3. Logic Part - in the main window of first page fill all the data which you need to print in 1st to 4th page in different internal table. Now for example you need to print text in first page then in Main window create table having the data of 1st page.
To print data in Second page create one more table having data of secondpage and put the Command there (follow the same for next pages,)
I hope this will help you
Thanks
