Prefill widget using document template

Hi All,
We are building a website in which customers fill user friendly forms and sign a W-9 and other documents in an echosign widget. We are going to use document templates to generate the widget for users to sign.
What property do I need to set at a field level in order for the field to be pre-filled in the widget and customers will only sign?
role: prefill by sender or field type read-only or neither
Thanks

Correct in regards of using mergfieldInfo. and tags.
prefill is a specific term referring to manually (pre) filling a form, which is indeed not possible with widgets.
You are referring to mergeing formfield data from another system, which is perfectly possible using the mergfieldInfo parameter.
in terms of tags the main concern is the name of the field and whether or not you set the field read only for the signer.

Automatic Creation of Documents using Document Templates in UCM

Hi,
We need to cater following requirements in my project and we are using Oracle UCM 11g.
1. Can we create documents automatically using some document templates? i.e. Auto-generation of documents based on message input and templates.
2. Can we enter free text into some areas of the documents available in UCM repository? And can we enter that new text parts in to UCM library?
3. Can we automatically create printable pdfs in UCM?
Please guide me how I can achieve these functionality in UCM.

Hi,
When you do transfer postings, SAP will set the batch number same as the one from which you are issuing the stock. To avoid this you can set the creation of batch to B (Automatic/ Manual with check in user exit)
You need to use following user exit at batch creation
EXIT_SAPLV01Z_001
EXIT_SAPLV01Z_002
Hope this helps, reward if useful,

Accordion widget in document template

I'm trying to design my site using an accordion widget for my
left-side navigation bar: each tab is a product category and when
you click it, it shows all the subcategories. When I was working on
just the index page, the accordion worked fine every time I checked
it in Internet Explorer. But then I changed my document into a
template, making the left-side bar a non-editable region, and
created 5 or 6 pages off of the template. Now, when I'm in
dreamweaver looking at any of those 6 pages, I can click the
non-editable accordion tabs to see the content, but when I check it
in either IE or firefox, the accordion tabs will not open, all
except for the last tab on the bottom which opens just fine.
Does anybody have any idea why this would happen?
Is it possible to use an accordion widget as my left-side
navigation bar?
Thanks in advance!

There would be no a prioi reason that I can think of that
would prevent you
from having such things in your Template. Can you post a link
to one of
these pages?

Grouping of document templates created in template designer

Hi,
we use document templates when creating activities. We have defined profiles for document templates and assigned them to transaction types. Now when I create activity type "A" I can use for attachment only templates defined on profile which is assigned to activity type "A". My question is if it is possible to do more detailed grouping based not only on tranaction type but based on other attributes of activity, for example "reason".

Careful with the recommendations for XPAAJ. There are specific restrictions around whether you can
use XPAAJ or not. Specifically, you have to own a copy of one of the server-based LiveCycle

Document templates with reference not working anymore with CRM2007 on SP7

Since we upgraded our CRM system(v 2007) to SP7 we are facing a serious problem with our document templates. The document templates do not contain any reference anymore (e.g. BP name and address details). This issue is a showstopper for the SP upgrade to go live in production.
We have taken the following actions to get it work again but all without any success:
- We have regenerated the webservice again (CRMOST_GENERATION);
- Created the webservice again and generate it (CRMOST_GENERATION);
- Run CRMOST_GENSTATUS_MONITOR for correponding webservice: status OK
-> when debugging /CRMOST/Z_D007_READ I see in table LT_MESSAGES: "Invalid mainobject: GDCOIRoot
Also, we investigated SAP note: 1329961 and notes related to CRM-BF-COM in SAPKU70007.
It looks like a bug in the new programming. When using standard SAP mainobject GDCOI no reference is taking into account anymore.
To visualize the issue for you, I will describe for you the steps how we can reproduce the issue:
- Within Account ID we identify an account and confirm account;
- Now when we create a service ticket we can enter some additional information in fields;
- We save the ticket and select the "Create a new letter" icon and select a document template;
- Now Word with XML is openened but WITHOUT taking any reference from confirmed account and service ticket.
I can not imagine we are the only customer with CRM2007 on SP7 and is using document templates who is facing this issue.
I really would appreciate it if anyone could help us in any way.
Regards,
Harrië

I had the same problem and solved it by doing this 2 stepa:
1. Run report CRMOST_CREATE_PACKAGE, because after upgrade, package $WS_BOL_GEN is missing.
2. Run report CRMOST_GENERATION to generate webservice again.
Regards.

Document Templates in MS Word - how to cut the leading zeroes in number

Hello CRM gurus !
We use document templates in MS Word but have the document number printed with the leading zeroes.
example we have now:
0005000681
example we want to have:
5000681
Question - how to do that?
Is that in standard? The document number is the ObjectID tag as far as I know. Do I need to create another tag?
Or may be just call a function? Do I need to change my current Web Service Tool? Is that some extra ABAP to be inserted?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
have you tried to use this function call to delete de leading zeros?:
     CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
       EXPORTING
         input = value
       IMPORTING
         output = value.
Best regards

Rule usage in Document template creation

Dear all,
In our scenerio,I am using document template(TS) creation step in WS.
In this task I have created different word document templates.In my requirement based on the user, any one of the document template should come for creation.(not all the document templates).How can I do the config for that?Does it work,suppose the task is assigned with a Rule(The template is in creation mode)?

Hi Srini,
Use of background step indicates that it is additional step prior to your Document template. Do the processing what you were supposed to do in rule , get the required results from this step , store them in workfow container elements and Use them in your Document for template step.

New line formatting required in document template step in workflow

Dear all,
         I use document template step in workflow.
         In the document template step ,I use MS-Word as document class.
         I have to populate all employee names in the word document whose probation expires on a particular date.
         When my workflow attains execution, all employee names appear in single line in the word document.
         I want each employee name to appear in one line i.e., in new line in the word document.
         Is there any ABAP data dictionary type for new line?
        Please suggest me a solution to this problem.
Thanks and regards,
S.Suresh

Dear Raj!
          Thanks for your immediate response.
          I populate all employee names using custom method in the BOR zbus1065.All these employee names are inturn passed to multiline workflow container which in turn passed to word document.
          I did binding as following in the word document of document template step:
Following employee probation expires shortly
                     {&EMPLOYEENAME&}
          Though I am getting all employee names,all the employee names appear in single line.
           I want each employee name to appear in new line.
          Please suggest solution for which I will be grateful.
Thanks and regards,

Using a PDF as a Document Template in SharePoint 2010: "New Document" icon and action

Hi,
I have to create a document template in SharePoint 2010 using a PDF. After much searching I have learned to install Reader on the SharePoint server to bring in AcroPDF.dll
and set the OpenControl for PDFs in DOCICON.xml to be "AdobeAcrobat.OpenDocuments".
After taking these steps I can check PDFs in and out of SharePoint, and edit PDFs as I would edit an MS Office document.
However two problems remain with creating new documents based upon a PDF document template.
1) The PDF icon does not appear in the New Document dropdown. This makes sense since I never referenced a 32x32 icon in the SharePoint config files. Where would I place the icon image file and which configuration file would I edit to use that image file, and how?
The last three document templates are PDFs.
The second problem I face is that when I click one of the document templates above that is a PDF, nothing happens. I have tried this with Acrobat installed on both the client and the server. It would be preferable to insert a copy of the PDF document used as a template without having to use Acrobat at all.
Is there any resolution to either of these problems?

According to what i found the image needs to be 16x16.
See if this works.
Edit the DOCICON.XML file to include the PDF icon
In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML
Edit the DOCICON.XML file (I open it in NotePad, you can also use the built-in XML Editor)
Ignore the section <ByProgID> and scroll down to the <ByExtension> section of the file
Within the <ByExtension> section, insert a <Mapping Key=”pdf” Value=”pdficon_small.gif” /> attribute. The easiest way is to copy an existing one – I usually just copy the line that starts <Mapping Key=”png”… and replace the parameters for Key and Value (see image below for example).
Note: Do not take shortcuts and copy/paste from here. 99% of problems with PDF icons not being displayed are due to errors made in the DOCICON.XML file
Save and close the file

Corrupt document gets created in document library with document template using createlistitem workflowaction in visual studio workflow for office 365 solution

Hi,
My requirement is to create a document library associated to a custom content type with a document template associated. Also I need to create a document based on the template in this document library when a new item is created in another list by taking the
reference ID of that new Item , I need to create the document with the name appended by ID. I need to do all this deployment using WSP.
I have created document library with document template associated to content type by following instructions in below stated blog :http://blogs.msdn.com/b/chaks/archive/2011/05/19/deploying-a-document-template-file-in-content-type-in-a-office365-sandboxed-solution.aspx
This works perfect for me.
However, there are few observations, when going to Document Library > Library Settings > Advanced Settings > Document Template section - doesnt shows the Edit template link. When tried to look at the value for the document template using view source
, it is giving me /Lists/MyDocsListInstance/Forms/template.dotx instead of the actual template file uploaded.
Ignoring the above observation, when I am trying to create a sandbox based workflow in visual studio to create document in document library when new item is created in another list, I provide the ContentTypeID as the ID associated with the document library
with template.
It creates the corrupt document at end of workflow.
I have tried using .docx instead of .dotx files for workflow as per solution provided in some of the post but it isnt resolving my issue.
Any help is much appreciated.
Regards,
Krutika

OK, I am going to throw out a lot of ideas here so hopefully they get you closer to a diagnosis. Hang on :)
Does it happen to work for some users but not others? If so, try logging in on the "good" computer with the "bad" username. This will tell you if the problem is related to the end-user's system. Also, once the user downloads a document
successfully can they open and work on it in Word? Also, does the document library have any custom content types associated with it or does it just use 'Document'?
I notice that there are other folks on the web that have run into this same problem and the similarity seems to be that they are either on SharePoint 2007 or have upgraded from 2007. Did this doc library start out as a 2007 library?
What you might want to do is this: Make a site collection from scratch in 2013 (or find one that you know was created in 2013). Choose team site (or whatever you want) for the root web and set up the security the same way you have it on the malfunctioning
library. Now, use windows explorer to copy and paste some of the documents to the new location. Be sure you recreate any needed content types. Now test it from the troubled user's computer.
I'm thinking there may be something that is different about the library since it was migrated through various versions and updates since 2007. I've sometimes found that there can be problems (especially with user profiles but that's a different story) with
things that go through this evolution.

Hi,
If you want to add fields to a list, as you have written your form in JavaScript, you can take consideration of using JavaScript Client Object Model to add/delete fields dynamically.

If you want to achieve it with Form7, it is recommended to post the question to its forum to get quick and confirmed answer.

Trouble using Custom Template and Saving Resulting Document. Help!

I created a Custom Template in Numbers '09. When I go hit "New from Template Chooser", there it is. I've tried entering info directly into the template, as well as duplicating it and entering info in the duplicated document. I can enter the info just fine, but.... Either way, when I'm done I do not have an option to Save, Save As or anything like that. I only see "Save As Template".....but it's already a perfectly good template. I don't want to Save As Template and create another template!!!. I want a named document saved, using the great template I already put together. Is this a problem? What's up? Why can't I do this???? Please help!

I'm on an iMac running 10.7.5. (Afraid to go further because I have FInal Cut Pro 7 and I'm very attached to it....I'm afraid to upgrade my OS and have FCP not work! I'm a pro and not so willing to go to FCP 10). Anyway, I'm on an iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 4 GB, 1333 MHz RAM.
I'm running Numbers ''09 and don't have 13, so it's an 09 template entering 09 info. It's perfect. I run webinars and it contains all of the status for media and every detail of any upcoming webinar production. My goal is to open the template, enter the info, and save it with the name of the webinar client. Then open again, enter for another client, save, etc.
It's just 09 all the way through. It says I can Save a Version or Save as Template.
Should I open a template and then Duplicate so it's a fresh document? I do that sometimes in hopes of seeing an option to SAVE AS. Sometimes I open and Don't Duplicate, but just use the template. Either way I see no way of saving the document with the specific information for the client. I don't want to Save As Template! Who wants hundreds of templates running around that are all virtually the same except for the info entered within it.
Am I missing the boat here?

Use a pdf as a document template, New Document icon and action

I am looking to use an editable pdf as a new document template for a content type. I uploaded the pdf successfully, but when I select the new document from the template options, it attempts to open the pdf, and then provides the error message:
Message from webpage
The document could not be created.
The required application may not be installed properly, or the template for this document library cannot be opened.
Please try the following:
1. Check the General Settings for this document library for the name of the template, and install the application necessary for opening the template. If the application was set to install on first use, run the application and then try creating a new document
again.
2. If you have permission to modify this document library, go to General Settings for the library and configure a new template.
OK
I have already setup the docicon.xml with the following entry for pdf's:
<Mapping Key="pdf" Value="pdficon_small.gif"/>
PDF's are behaving appropriately throughout the environment, but I am unable to get the 'New Document' from a pdf template functioning. Does this capability exist?
Thanks!

For Content Types, it only recognizes Office document types. In order to add PDFs, you would need to build a custom solution or purchase a 3rd party product (such as http://www.pdfshareforms.com/pdf-share-forms-enterprise/).
