Print Button in Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi Everybody,
i hope that someone know or have a code sample how i can set a print button to the Web Dynpro for ABAP. On click on this it should open the print window from the Internet Explorer.
Please let me know if there is any information about this.
Thanks
Best regards
Markus

Hi,
If you are using the Internet Explorer 7, you can use CTRL + P to invoke print directly on any WebDynpro ABAP view. This is IE 7.0 browser featute & always has print preview & print options available from File Menu's. So you dont require any additional buttons on view :).
For table data if you use ALV you get options to export data to excel or fire print directly
Greetings

How to open print dialog from web dynpro abap application

Hi experts,
I have a web dynpro application with several views and onone of the view there is a button that should open print dialog with printers list and all other options (standard print dialog we see in windows). I did reserach on SDN and came to now that this is a limitation of web dynpro abap. I did find some code also but unfortunately our current version of ABAP(7.0) do not support the code I found. I am not able to find any proper solution for this. Could someone please let me know how I can open a print dialog by clicking on a button in web dynpro abap? Any sample code or any information would be greatky appreciated.
Thanks.

Calling a smart form on click of a button in web dynpro abap

Hi experts,
I have a requirement like if I click a button in a view i need ti generate a PDF through smart form.
Is this possible. If so please tell me the way..
Thanks & Regards

Hi Sharma,
Create Interactive form in your view, create one node say PDF_SOURCE under this one attribute PDF_SOURCE of type XSTRING.
Bind this to IF form Datasource and pdfsource.
in your button action write code to call your smartform
using SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME
using FM CONVERT_OTF and attach_file_to_response
*convert to pdf
call function 'CONVERT_OTF'
    EXPORTING
      format                = 'PDF'
    IMPORTING
      bin_filesize          = lv_bytecount
    TABLES
      otf                   = ls_job_output_info-otfdata
      lines                 = lt_lines
    EXCEPTIONS
      err_conv_not_possible = 1
      err_bad_otf           = 2.
loop at lt_lines into ls_line.
    lv_string = ls_line.
    export mydata = lv_string to data buffer lv_buffer.
    import mydata to l_xline from data buffer lv_buffer in char-to-hex
    mode.
    concatenate l_pdfstring l_xline into l_pdfstring in byte mode.
endloop.
call method cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response
    EXPORTING
      i_filename      = 'ZWTY_PACKINGSLIP'
      i_content       = l_pdfstring
      i_mime_type     = 'BIN'
      i_in_new_window = abap_false
      i_inplace       = abap_false.

Hi ,
It seesms something you are missing. It would be easy for us if you could paste your code which you have written in the Action of Button.
Sample code for your reference :
METHOD onactionget_url .
data lo_window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager.
data lo_api_component type ref to if_wd_component.
data lo_window         type ref to if_wd_window.
lo_api_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
lo_window_manager = lo_api_component->get_window_manager( ).
CALL METHOD lo_window_manager->CREATE_EXTERNAL_WINDOW
EXPORTING
    URL            = 'http://www.google.co.in/'
    MODAL          = ABAP_FALSE
    HAS_MENUBAR    = ABAP_TRUE

ENDMETHOD.

Print Functionality for Web Dynpro ABAP Application

Hi All,
I am using the standard print button provided by FPM in my application.
The application has a date navigator control as well as a dynamic ALV with fixed and on fixed columns.
I would like to know if the application has to do any implementation to provide print functionality. If yes, how do we do it?
Will it consider all the ALV columns as the ALV could have horizontal scroll bar.
How do we test it?
Defining output device in our user as LOCL is enough to test it? Are there any limitations?
Findings until now:
I just happened to see that gc_event_print FPM event is raised and the application uses interactive PDF form to implement printing.
I am not sure if this satisfies my requirement.
Could you help me in providing more information regarding this? You could also provide me some web dynpro examples for reference.
Regards,
Rekha

>I just happened to see that gc_event_print FPM event is raised and the application uses interactive PDF form to implement printing.
I am not sure if this satisfies my requirement.
As you are already suspecting, the FPM doesn't provide the print functionality itself. It only raises the event and the specific application is then responsible for how it wants to produce the output. Therefore it is your job to design the output (generally using PDF forum).

Pixel tracking in web dynpro abap

Hi,
I have a scenario where in we are tracking job applicant source. Lets say a job seeker goes to careerbuilder.com and searches for job. At that point, careerbuilder.com sets a cookie in the job seek's computer. when Job seeker clicks to appy for job that takes him to our company sap e-recruiting job application page. when job seeker finally clicks send application button from web dynpro abap, we are rendering external https url as image using rfc destination from web dynpro abap. The external https url which basically reads the cookie ithat is set by careerbuilder.com site in the client computer.
External url as rfc destination is not reading the cookie even though I have enabled cookie read option and used http1.1 in rfc destination.
does anyone have any idea how sap wda handles client cookie? how can we make a external url which renders as image can be set to no caching? any help is highly appreciated.
thanks
Vijay

Reg: Workflow in Web Dynpro ABAP

Dear Experts,
Im new to Workflow. I need some guidance in sending a smartform for approval to next level approver's workflow inbox, im using web dynpro abap when i click on approve button in web dynpro abap the smartform should move to next level approver inbox.
Regards
Arun.P

Hi Arun,
Here rather than using smart form, make use of INteractive adobe form.
This will disaply the required fileds of your amartform as well as buttons to approve o reject.
Do a little search on SDN and you will get plenty of examples to use adobe forms in web dynpro.
Once you have designed the adobe form, you can make use of SAP_WAPI* function modules to transfer data to workflow.
Hope this helps.

Closing web browser from a Web Dynpro (ABAP) component in it

Hi,
I am opening a Web Dynpro component in IE.
I have a requirement to close the Internet Explorer window on click of a "Close" Button in Web Dynpro (ABAP) component. I am using EXIT Outbound plug of the Main Window to perform the same.
In the EXIT plug I am setting "CLOSE_WINDOW" parameter to ABAP_TRUE.
On click of the "Close" button a pop-up dialog box (with "Yes" and "No" buttons) appears asking me whether I really want to close the IE window.
If I click on "Yes" button of the dialog box, the IE window gets closed without any issues.
But when I click on "No" button, the IE window shows up a blank screen. I want the control to come back to the calling Web Dynpro component's screen.
Appreciate any help/guidance in the above issue.
Thanks,
Prasanna

Issue While printing / Previewing a Adobe form in Web Dynpro ABAP application

Dear All,
We have designed 4 different adobe forms using SFP transaction for 4 different countries in SAP system.
Every country have different terms and conditions and therefore we have placed static texts (Hardcoded text) with text in different styles. Some text is in bold, some in different font (Bold, Italic). Font and Paragraph settings of the text was done as per expected. All the forms have same font and paragraph settings.
When we Launch Web Dynpro ABAP application to open the form in Print preview or to take print, form is not getting displayed / printed as it is designed in SFP. But if you open the form in SFP, everything looks fine.
It is working fine for 3 different forms but problem with only 1 form.
Kindly guide what is the reason for this strange issue when previewed or taken print. It is very urgent.
Thanks,
Bharath.K

Dear All,
Thanks for your responses.
We had identified the reason.
Customer has provided terms and conditions for all 4 countries in PDF document. Along with PDF, for 3 out of 4 countries customer has shared pre-prepared word document with pre aligned and justified terms and conditions as per expected outcome. We copied this text from word to Adobe form layout. It worked fine. For 1 country, customer have not shared terms and conditions in word document. Therefore we had copied text directly from adobe PDF document in to Form layout. Then this issue happened.
Solution for this issue is to, prepared a word document with expected alignment and justification of terms and conditions text . Then copied from word to adobe livecycle designer form layout. It worked fine.
Thanks,
Bharath.

Submit button from Interactive adobe form in Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi all,
We seem to be having a problem with the 'submit' button on the Interactive Form for the Web Dynpro ABAP. The submit button is from the Web Dynpro active X or web Dynpro Native in the form designer. The submit button doesn't trigger the action in Web Dynpro. we are currently running on support pack 9 for the ABAP stack. We have Internet Explorer browser version 6. Could someone tell me if there are requirements for the IE version that will work in conjunction with a particular ABAP stack version. And, are there specific IE security settings or administrative privilages required with this version of the ABAP stack. Or, any other ideas as to why this does not seem to work.
Thanks in advance,
Michelle Hong

Hi Michelle,
Could you tell me how you resolved the problem - as I'm facing exactly the same issue!
Many Thanks

Hi,
You can create Button in your ALV table column with below code
DATA lo_button              TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_uie_button.
CREATE OBJECT lo_button.
    CALL METHOD lv_value->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_column
      EXPORTING
        id    = <your column name>
      RECEIVING
        value = lo_system_select_hdr.
    lo_button->set_enabled( value = abap_true ).
   lo_button->set_text( value = 'Avaliable List' ).
    lo_button->set_tooltip( value = 'Avaliable List' ).
    lo_system_select_hdr->set_cell_editor( value = lo_button ).
And for button click action,
Create a method (say SHOW_DATA( ) ) with on_click event handler.And when you click button on your ALV table, SHOW_DATA( ) method will trigger.
Thanks

How to add screen elements at run time on button click in Web Dynpro abap?

Hello All,
I have a requirement wherein the user wants to add the textbox dynamically at runtime on button click action. My questions is, Is it feasible to dynamically add screen elements at runtime? If yes, how?
Please help.
Thanks

Hi Ajinkya,
This is absolutely possible! Adding view elements at runtime is called "dynamic programming". There are a lot of good resources and tutorials on SCN if you do a search. To start you off, here is an excellent series by Thomas Szücs:
Dynamic Programming in Web Dynpro ABAP - Introduction and Part I: Understanding UI Elements
Dynamic Programming in Web Dynpro ABAP - Part II: Handling ViewElements
Dynamic Programming in Web Dynpro ABAP - Part III: Aggregations and DDIC-Binding of ViewElements
Another option that avoids dynamic programming is to create the view element at design time but bind its visible property to a context attribute of type WDUI_VISIBILITY. You could initially set its visibility to "none" until the user clicks the button, then you could change its visibility to "visible".
Cheers,
Amy
