Printing datagrid items or data

I have built an application that takes user input, searches
data in an XML file, and returns matches to a datagrid (with scoll
bars) on the stage. The next logical step would be to print that
data. Of course, the data could be one item or 100 items, so I have
no way of knowing how many pages would need to be printed. From
what I've read, this can be pretty dicey. Hence, I'm looking for
some general ideas about how to do it.

Printing datagrids is a complex task and results are somewhat
substandard, but basically what you'll need to do is:
Determine how long the datagrid is (in pixels)
Determine how many pages long the datagrid is
Start a print job
Run a loop through the number of pages
Each loop iteration, update the position of the datagrid to
the next page
Force the datagrid to render before the next addPage call is
made
(flash does not update the screen when in a code loop)
Send the print job
Reset the position of the scrollbar.
A very basic (and ugly) version CAN be done in about 10-15
lines of code.
Good luck ;)
Cheers,

Item level data in sap script

Hello Friends,
I have a report which prints Normal Tax invoice & Returns Tax, I modified this report just by adding one extra "delivery channel". The report call one more program which dose the printing job based on the delivery no.
The issue, I can able to see the header data in th the print preview of the tax invoice, and not able to see item level data.
Please help me how to resolve this issue.

Hi,
You need to pass the line item data to the smartform/script. Please check in debug mode whether the data is passed correctly.

How to print selected Item rows in AR Invoice under PLD?

Hi,
Customer is running on 2007A PL30. They are distributing drugs to clinics and hospital.
Eg. In AR Invoice, they are selling 10 items to customer. The 10 items will be printed out in AR Invoice. Assume out of these 10 items 2 of it are poison.
Customer wants to print out poison report to the government for same invoice but only appear 2 items rather than all the 10 items.
May I know how to incorporate filtering in PLD to print out the 2 item only. FYI, we are going to use a marker in Item Master Data to indicate whether the item is poisoneous.
How to derive poison report in this scenario?
Regards
Thomas

Hi
It will be possible to filter the rows (poison only) to show on a separate layout using the flag on the item master.
You will need the flag field in the repetitive area as well as a formula field. You link your fields in the repetitive area to this formula field to determine whether a line in the invoice will show in the print or not.
Have a look at the system layout 'Invoice_Item Type and Details (system)' - repetitve area which will give you a good idea of how this can be done.

Maybe Flex SDK bug: Setting visible of DataGrid item renderers

Hi all, I'm still a noob at flex but this looks a bit strange to me.
I've been trying to hide a button renderer in a DataGrid but it just wouldn't hide. I've been setting visible inside the mxml and also in the the class that extends buttonbut it just wouldn't hide. I then overloaded the visible property set/get and traced what was setting the property to true and found that inside DataGridBase.as the function setupColumnItemRenderer always sets visible of the renderes to true.
DataGridBase.as
protected function setupColumnItemRenderer(c:DataGridColumn, contentHolder:ListBaseContentHolder,
                    rowNum:int, colNum:int, data:Object, uid:String):IListItemRenderer
        var listItems:Array = contentHolder.listItems;
        var item:IListItemRenderer;
        var rowData:DataGridListData;
        item = listItems[rowNum][colNum];
        if (!item || itemToUID(item.data) != uid
            || columnMap[item.name] != c)
            item = createColumnItemRenderer(c, false, data);
            if (item == null)
                return null;
            if (item.parent != contentHolder)
                contentHolder.addChild(DisplayObject(item));
            // a space is used if no data so text widgets get some default size
            columnMap[item.name] = c;
            if (listItems[rowNum][colNum])
                addToFreeItemRenderers(listItems[rowNum][colNum]);
            listItems[rowNum][colNum] = item;
        //[Matt] moved from inside the block above to outside because
        //the item definitely exists at this point, and always needs
        //its data refreshed
        rowData = DataGridListData(makeListData(data, uid, rowNum, c.colNum, c));
        rowMap[item.name] = rowData;
        if (item is IDropInListItemRenderer)
            IDropInListItemRenderer(item).listData = data ? rowData : null;
        item.data = data;
        item.visible = true;
        if (uid && colNum == 0)
            contentHolder.visibleData[uid] = item;
        return item;
Why does it do this? Shouldn't it respect the visible property already set for the renderer in mxml and not force it to true on init?

Renderers use the visible property for recycling. Invisible renderers are not supported. The hit detection logic would find it the cell it belongs to even if it was invisible. You can set alpha=0, but it won't stop the hit detection logic.
Why are you trying to hide a renderer?

Steps involved to Configure a Smartform for printing TO Item

Hi,
I want to develop a Smartform to print TO for each Item.
Currently it is being done using SAP Script.
I checked the Configuration in OMLV and assigned my print program Z****** .
This thing here is I don't see any values passed to my program like TO Number, Whse Number etc when called through LT31.
Where as I assign the standard program RLVSDR40 and debug it all the details are being passed to this program.
I am not sure if I am missing any configuration.
Please help me to figure out the issue and let me know all the steps involved in configuring the Smartforms to print Transfer Orders.
Thanks in Advance.
MK.

Hi Murali,
The SAP delivers the solution to print the TO item by SAPScript, but we can do it by Smartform as well, as in
You need to create a project for the enhancement MWMD0001, because EXIT_RLVSDR40_001 will fulfill your purpose of doing it the other ways i.e. via Smart from.
For this you have to use CMOD transaction to create the project for the above said enhancement.
Note: If you do this way any configuration done via OMNU wont't be considered.
Then after in teh import parameters you have a table XRLDRI, which contains both the warehouse number and the transfer order number, the same can be passed on to the designed Smartform to fulfill your purpose.
Sample Code, you can refer to:
*local variable declaration.
   DATA: l_wa_fm_name            TYPE rs38l_fnam.
* Local Field Symbols
   FIELD-SYMBOLS : <l_fs_rldri> TYPE rldri.
* Local Constant declaration
   CONSTANTS : lc_fmname TYPE tdsfname   VALUE 'XYXYXYXY', "Smartform name, here designated by 'XYXYXYXY'
               lc_chk      TYPE rldrudruck VALUE 'X'.
*Moving Transfer Order Print :Item level data into corresponding work area.
   LOOP AT xrldri ASSIGNING <l_fs_rldri>.
* Determine smartform function module
     CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
       EXPORTING
         formname           = lc_fmname
       IMPORTING
         fm_name            = l_wa_fm_name
       EXCEPTIONS
         no_form            = 1
         no_function_module = 2
         OTHERS             = 3.
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
* Call the function module of the smartform
       CALL FUNCTION l_wa_fm_name
         EXPORTING
           user_settings    = lc_chk
           tanum            = <l_fs_rldri>-tanum
           lgnum            = <l_fs_rldri>-lgnum

DataGrid Item Renderer loading duplicates after scroll

HI,
I have a report that loads into a datagrid, these reports are
about thumbnail images that are on a server.
I have a datagrid item renderer that loads the thumb nails.
When the grid first loads the first set of rows that are visible
display the correct images. But after I scroll the new rows have
images that are repeated and not the correct ones.

Great article I ended up getting rid of the creationcomplete
changing my init():void too override public function set data(

Add barcode in the item master data

Hi All
we have a field in the item master data called Bar Code. if you have several hundred thousand items in the database how do you assign a barcode for each item? do you enter the barcode manually for each item or is there any other way to enter this item's barcode automatically when the item is added into ware house? if you have enter manually the barcode how we should follow with the number of characters in the field? is that should look like exactly on the barcode label when you print? or we need to follow our own naming convention in using the numbers?
thanks

Avoid printing child items of Sales BOM in AR Invoice

Hi All,
I have a requirement to edit the print layout of AR Invoice to see only the parent item of the Sales BOM in SAP 2005.
In SAP 2007, there is an option to Hide BOM Components in Print Out but how do I avoid printing child items in SAP 2005.
Please advise.
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Payal

Hi Payal,
As a definition of B1, the children of the Sales BOM will always be shown in a marketing document.
However, we can change the template to hide them from the printouts. Please kindly follow the steps as below:
Print template editing for removing child items of Sales BOM
1.Add a new Text Field with Text 'I' in the Repetitive Area. ('I' is the attribute for child items)
2.Add a new Data Field in the Repetitive Area as below:
   a)In the Content tab, chose Table A/R Invoice # Rows and Column BOM Type
3.   Add a Formula in the Repetitive Area as below In the Content tab, chose:
      i.Source Type: Formula
      ii.In the Formula Editor, insert Field 1: the newly created Data field
      iii.Operation: !=
      iv.Field 2: the newly created Text field e.g. Field_316!=Field_315
4.Set the three fields added as Invisible, in order to set it as invisible, please uncheck the Visible box under General tab
5.Set Link to Field on the General tab of every field in the Repetitive Area (Row Level) to the exclusive number of the newly created calculation field.
6.Double-click the Repetitive Area to open Repetitive Area Property, Check Area Height Adjustment box under Format tab to hide the blank lines.
7 Save template and set as default, print preview.
You will find that the row number is the original, not successive, number. It is better to hide the row number field.
I hope it shall help.

Translation of UoM in Item Master Data

Hi all,
Problem:
Our customer uses multi-language support. In the item master data they use the purchasing and sales UoM which is printed on the marketing documents. For example "ST" in German corresponds to "pc" in French (piece). They need to go into each item one by one and enter the translation even if the UoM is always the same.
Possible solution:
A table behind the UoM field so that you can select from a drop down list. You would then need to translate each entry in the table just once.
Best regards,
Gunther

Suppressing the printing of Item Master record remmarks.

Hello
How do I disable the printing of the Item Master Data Remmarks from the Marketing Documents when a Text Line is present. Example - When a Text line is added to a Sales Order, the PLD priints the remmarks on the Item Master record in addition to the Text entry. I will like to suppress the printing of the Item Master record's remmarks.
Thanks.

Hi,
Please apply the following workaround:
+Hide the field "item Details(INV1,text)
+Link every existing field in the Repetitive Area to itself (this
inlcudes hidden fields as well)
+Add the following fields to the Repetitive Area:
(Before adding the fields,Increase the Height of the Repetitive Area to
allow placing the following field vertically below the exisiting fields
of the Repetitive Area - tick Height Adjustment for the Area)
      Field_1:
      General Tab
      untick visible
      Left = 0 / Width = 0 / Top = 0 / Height = 0
      Content Tab
      Source Type: System Variable
      Variable No.: 157
      Field_2:
      General Tab
      untick visible
      Left = 0 / Width = 0 / Top = 0 / Height = 0
      Content Tab
      Source Type: Formula
      Field_1 !='T'
      Field_3:
      General Tab
      untick visible
      Left = 0 / Width = 0 / Top = 0 / Height = 0
      Content Tab
      Source Type: Formula
      Field_1 =='T'
   Field_4:
   General Tab
   Link to: Field_2
   untick visible
   Left = 0 / Width = 0 / Top = 0 / Height = 0
   Content Tab
   Source Type: Formula
   LineNum()
   Field_5:
   General Tab
   Link to: Field_3
   untick visible
   Left = 0 / Width = 0 / Top = 0 / Height = 0
   Content Tab
   Source Type: Formula
   LineNum()
   Field_6:
   General Tab
   Link to: Field_3
   Left = / Width = / Top = / Height =(Remain as it is)
    => place vertically below the top row in the Repetitive Area
   Format Tab
   Line Break: Divide into Rows
   tick Field Height Adjustment
   Content Tab
   Source Type: Database
   Table: A/R Invoice - Rows
   Column: Text
I hope the above steps will solve your issue.

DataGrid jumps on data refresh

Hi,
I have a datagrid control bound to an arraycollection. I also
have a timer which updates the arraycollection with new data and
call its refresh method every few seconds
The problem is that the datagrid scrolls to the item that is
selected and it looks very jumpy. How can i prevent this from
happening?

Actually, I discovered that I don't have to use itemUpdated()
method when binding an arraycollection to a datagrid (notification
of data change is sent to the view automatically)...
What i did instead was simply update the properties of the
objects inside of my arraycollection through a loop.
for(var i:int = 0; i < mainCollection.length; i++){
var item:Object = mainCollection.getItemAt(i);
for (var qs:String in anotherCollection
item[qs] = anotherCollection[item.id][qs];
mainCollection.itemUpdated(item);
But, since you are ADDING or REMOVING items, I'm not sure how
useful the code above will be in helping you figure it out. Since I
use it to update the items.
