PDF Print Forms - Date format

Hi Frnds,
This is my first time to work in PDF print forms.
I am using standard interface and program to print my PDF forms. The PDF form alone is customised.
I need to format my date as dd-mmm-yyyy. how can i do it?
can i call a subroutine from a Zprogram in the context or interface?
Can anyone help me to solve my issue? thanks a lot.
regards
Suganya.

Hi Frnds,
I got the date format solution.
But I need to know whether we can use the subroutine of the program inside the interface or PDF forms as like script.
I am using the std prgm RFKORD10_PDF and my customised PDF form. but i am getting an error as "Contradiction in form".
Can anyone help me to solve the error?

Printing Chinese Date format using Oracle Reports

Hi ,
I need to print the date as for e.g, 2006 4 12 (Year Month and Day) with a chinese character after each of the three components, representing the year, Month and Day.
When running the report with the format mask as RRRR Mon DD, I get the chinese character for the Month component and not for the year and day. I tried with different format masks available and also tried with somehting which is not in list as well. But, I couldn't get the intended format.
Is there anyone who has done this before? If so, pl. let me know the way to get this done.
regards,
tilak

Hi Olga,
If the Date in the database is date (not datetime) means you cannot use a DD-MON-RR HH:MI:SS in your reports.
If you want to show date with time means, change the properties in Oracle Forms of that date field and assign datetime as datatype.
So that the value inserted to the field will become datetime. and automatically if you use this column in your report you will get date along with time.
Hope this clears...

How to print this date format: eg. 14-Aug-2002 01:26:36 PM?

Can anyone tell me exactly how to print this format?

This is how we can produce the output you specified.
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
//14-Aug-2002 01:26:36 PM?
class Test
     public static void main(String args[])
          //Date b=new Date();
          //System.out.println(b.toString());
          // Format the current time.
          SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat ("dd-MMM-yyyy ' ' hh:mm:ss a");
          Date currentTime_1 = new Date();
          String dateString = formatter.format(currentTime_1);
          System.out.println(dateString);
}//end of Test.

[11g] Date format when printing dashboard prompt

Hello,
i have a dashboard prompt with a between condition on a date format. When i display it on the dashboard, the format is perfect dd.mm.yyyy. But when i want to print the dashboard, the format is shown as yyyy-mm-dd. On the forum i found a hint about the localedefinitions.xml (Printer-friendly date format But there, the definition is ok
<property name="dateShortFormat">dd.MM.yyyy</property> // default short date format for locale
So, how can i change the format to dd.mm.yyyy when printing the dashboard. Any advice?
Thanks
Martin

Davison,
Its not possible using user settings. All you would need to do is copy the SAP SCRIPTForm program(You can keep the Print program as such) and set date mask as required in SAP script text editor using command
/: SET DATE MASK = 'MMMM DD, YYYY'
Now the date variable value written out on the screen would be
&DATE& -> JAN 01, 2010
You could revert to standard settings using command
/: SET DATE MASK = ' '

Date format within smartforms printing

Hello,
I have an issue regarding date format.
When I print a delivery note date format is e.g. 08.04.2011, printing an invoice it shows 04-08-2011.
It seems that depending on the customers country the invoice printing converts to date format within country settings
(V_T005-DATFM) while delivery form doesn't.
If I always want to print in date format of sales company what should I do?
Thanks a lot,
Wolfi.

I guess, it should work if you define
/: SET COUNTRY &country_key&
in the Initialization section of your smartform.
Note: The country-dependent formatting options are stored in the T005X table.

SaiRam

Hw can I generate XY graphs directly in a vector data format for printing ie pdf

A further question re. Printing of Graphs
There are many similar questions but none where the answers are acceptably adiquite or two or three were the link was broken,
"Developer exchange forums have been moved" and a pointer to the new
site, unfort it was hard to find or guess the rest of the link.
So here is my angle on this problem;
So far I have tried;
Using property node: "App. Printing.Default Printer" to select the printer to use, then
Using Report Functions to print controls;
New Report, to generate a new report reference
Set Report Orientation
Set Report Margins
Set Report Font
Set Report Header Text
Set Report Font
Set Report Footer Text
loop for each page
Set Report Footer Text, With page number
Append Control Image to Report, several times
New Report Page
Until the end of the last page
Print Report
Dispose Report
Initially using existing XY-Graph controls from the front panel. These
are on a page of a Tab control to hide these controls while not in use
and allow them to be hidden while generating the printout.
Unfortunately when this page is hidden any graph scales set to
autoscale don't, (normally don't need to and would otherwise be a waste
of processor time), resulting in graph plots going off scale or
becoming a line along the axis.
An issue is that what is printed appears to be read from the screen, so resolution is much
lower than required for for printing, resulting in rather pixellated
printed versions. These prints will usually be emailed, so tried the
pdf995 "printer driver" but the resulting pdf file size is rather large.
Currently trying Plot-XY on a much larger picture so as to get
adequate resolution for printing, however suspect this will result in
much larger pdf files and probably cause other problems.
The preferred solution in this case will probably be to generate print
output, instead of based on raster images (ie jpg or png), but on a
vector format, maybe via postscript or directly in pdf format.
Similar graphs currently printed from Excel via pdf995
(or OpenOffice) result in files around 20 kb per page. these can be printed at any size
(at least upto 64 times) without becoming pixellated, so assume these
are vector based.
Currently a page with 4 XY Graph controls uses around 40 to 45 kb per
page but resolution is poor and overcoming that may push file size up
to 150 to 200 kb per page, and the whole job can be 50 to 100 pages.
Are there any functions to generate XY graphs directly in a vector data format preferably in pdf or via PostScript format.
Cheers
Darryl

Hi Darryl,
I was able to reproduce the issue you were seeing, in which a report generation was taking up a large amount of space per page in a PDF utility. I found; however, using my attached VI (notice that it is set to *.png) and the CutePDF utility (free download at http://www.cutepdf.com/) I was able to get a per page size of about 10 KB. Also using the png I found that the image quality seemed to be quite high.
Please try incorporating this solution into your application and see if it reduces your file sizes.
Thanks and have a good evening!
Cheers,

Printing binary data in PDF format

HI all,
Any idea on how to print Binary content in a PDF format
I have read a PDF format from application server in a Binary format, I need to print the binary content on a printer in PDF format
Any help on this is appreciated <REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Thanks

Hi papick,
this may be easier than expected for a million dollar erp system:
You need a PDF printer.
When I played around with adobe interactive forms our basis guys created a new printer in SPAD with
Device Attributes
Device Type PDF1
Device Class Stabdard Printer
location PDF-Frontend printer = Standard printer for workstation
Access Method
Host Spool Access Method FF
Host printer PDF
Then need some expremimenting with Functions
RSPO_OUTPUT_DEVICEDATA Spool Output Control of an Internal Table with Formatted Data
or something alike (see function group SPOD)
Then you should be able to create an entry in spooler (SP01) with spool request type adobe pdf document.
Sorry, I don't have this problem, thus I did not check out the details yet.
But I'm convinced it should work that way because the ADS server creates a complete PDF binary and it can be printed using the above described printer - actually a HP Laserjet V was configured as frontend printer and it can print the pdf.

Clemens

Date Format in Check Printed from F110

Hi,
I'm on 4.6C.
Company: US10 (United states local configuration)
I'm doing the check printing thru Tcode F110 and for printing we are using program RFFOUS_C. Earlier we were getting date format as MM.DD.YYYY but if vendor is form Spain (I'm not sure) I have started getting format as DD/MM/YYYY.
Why?. Should I change vendor's country to US on Tcode FK03?
I have checked the user setting (Tcode SU3) of the person who did the printing, in that also the date format is MM.DD.YYYY.
A lot of thanks in advance.
Best Regards,

Hi Sid,
Thanks for your quick answer.
My Date's fields in RFFOUS_C are: &REGUH-ZALDT& and &REGUP-BldAT&
/: SET DATE MASK = 'MM.DD.YYYY'
OR
/: SET REGUH-ZALDT MASK = 'MM.DD.YYYY' ????
I must set date mask in every window??
a lot of thanks in advance.
best regards

Date format when printing Maintenance Order

Dear Colleagues
When I print a Work Order, I'm getting the date format as DD-MM-YYYY
I know that I can change this format in the User Parameters, however I need to modify a huge number of users.
Question 1) Is there a way to setup the date format independent of the user parameters?
Question 2) I'd like to have the date like this: JAN-01-2010. But I don't have this option in the User Parameters. Do you know how can I do it?
Thank you for your help

Davison,

Date format changed while printing invoice

Dear All,
Since yestardayin production server the date format of invoice is like 12.02.2010,but form morning it is comming like 2010.02.12.
I have checked in quality and it is still comming like 12.02.2010.
Could you please tell me why is it comming?
Regards,
Amar

Dear Amar,
1 Check the user profile for default type od date value in production system and compare it with quality. If this is not as per the quality system then change it.
2 if both system quality and production both have same date format then you have to debug and find out the issue.
Hope you need not to go for second point.

How do I create a printer friendly page in a popup window for a JSF page

I have a JSF page that displays a table that shows the inventory level of a particular garment style. The table is like a matrix with each row representing a color of the style and each column representing a size of the garment. So the data in the table cell is for the inventory level of a particular color/size combination (e.g. navy blue of medium size ) for the particular style. The page also allows you to dynamically select a warehouse from a dropdown to see the inventory matrix of that warehouse.
Now everything has been working fine except that the matrix table is not printer-friendly. So we need to have a Print button or link on the page that will generate a popup window that displays the same matrix table in a printer-friendly format (with different style sheet etc.). What is the best way to populate the matrix table in the popup? The data in the matrx table is stored in a hashmap in a InventoryManageBean of session scope.
Also, shoud I use window.open to get the new window and if so what do I pass in the URL parameter?
Any advice is appreciated. It would be great if you can include a code sample as I would think someone else must have had this done before.

Any one please? This is urgent. Thanks a ton!
