Problem in Sending Fax output in Adobe form

Hi All,
I am creating RFQ / Purchase order with output type : NEU, Medium : 2 (Fax). While creating output for the purchase order in transaction ME9F (adobe form), a popup window appears prompting for Output device.(NAST-DEST). For Fax as output medium NAST-DEST doesnot have any value. For print, it would be Printer name. This problem is not only with custom driver program but also seen when assigning standard program :SAPFM06P and standard adobe form : MEDRUCK_PO and standard routine : ADOBE_ENTRY_NEU.
There is absolutely no issue with SAP Script and I can see the output in SCOT.
Please let me know if there is any configuration settings to be arrived for FAX output medium using ADOBE FORM.
Thanks for all your inputs.
Thanks
Guru Shanthi

Hi Priyanka,
Thanks for your time.
In NACE, I had configured Driver program and corresponding ADOBE form.
Could you please suggest, how do I apply the solution you have provided. Please elaborate.
Thanks

Fax output in Adobe forms

Hello Gurus,
I have requirement to send fax of an adobe form from my program. In FM "FP_JOB_OPEN", we have parameter "DEVICE" where we can give as "TELEFAX" and Other parameter is there where we can get the PDF i.e. through the parameter "GETPDF".
But, Later am not understanding where to give the Fax Number n so on details....
Please let me know how to proceed further.
Thanks in advance.

Usha

Hi Nishikant Kumbhar ,
Thanks for ur reply, Actually problem is where should I mention the Fax number (i.e. in some parameter we have mention).
Here, we have different options to send.
For Printer, We use the set of code.
                 Pass the parameters in OUT structure.
                 sample :
                              out-device = 'PRINTER'         " in case of Printer
                              out-nodialog = 'X'.
                              out-dest = par_priz.    " Normally for the printer, We specify the printer name
                              out-reqnew = 'X'.
out-reqimm = 'X'.
out-reqdel = 'X'.
                              out-reqfinal = 'X'.
For EMail, We use the set of code.
                 Pass the parameters in OUT structure.
                 sample :
                              out-device = 'MAIL''         " in case of Printer
                              out-nodialog = 'X'.
                              out-getpdf = 'X'.              "It will return the PDF
We will call FM FP_JOB_OPEN, Next Call Adobe Form Generated FM will return PDF , Next based on return PDF, we send the mail using FM "SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1".
For Fax, Do we need to this set of code... Confirm this.....
                 Pass the parameters in OUT structure.
                 sample :
                              out-device = 'TELEFAX'         " in case of Fax
                              out-nodialog = 'X'.
                              out-dest = par_priz.    " Normally for the printer, We specify the printer name but *                                                               now For Fax, where should I specify the Fax number.
                              out-reqnew = 'X'.
out-reqimm = 'X'.
out-reqdel = 'X'.
                              out-reqfinal = 'X'.
But, here also, do I need to use any other FM where I can specify the Fax no's or any othre way to do...
Please, Let me know about this...
Thanks in advance.

Merging Smartform Output and Adobe Form Output in a single PDF File

Hi All,
My Requirement is as follows -
I have multiple Smartforms and a single Adobe Form.
I want to merge the Smartform Outputs and Adobe Form output in a single PDF.
I am able to merge multiple Smartform Output in a PDF , but not able to find any way to merge smartform and adobe form output as the Smartform output is in OTF Format and Adobe form output is in PDF Format itself.
I have tried few ways , but could not find any success.
Request you all to give me some direction to this problem.
Thanks & Regards
Bhavika

Kumar,
I am afraid this is not possible using SAP functionality. There are probably 3rd party tools which allow you to merge several PDFs into one, but SAP itself does not offer such a mechanism. There is an internal SAP function, though, which can merge several "parts" (=several PDFs) within an Adobe-created spool request into a single PDF, intended for downloading this PDF from SP01.
This is described in note 1717357.
Best regards,
Alexander

Problem while sending fax through a SAP Smart Form

Hi,
I am trying to send fax through a smartform but it is not working, please see the details below.
I am calling the Function Module "SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME" in a PAI event. After storing the FM name "/1BCDWB/SF00000029"in a local variable "ls_frm_name", I am using that for printing the Form and at the same time to fax out the same by passing the following export parameters.
control_parameters type ssfctrlop with values
la_ssfctrlop_struc-device      = 'TELEFAX'.
la_ssfctrlop_struc-no_dialog   = 'X'.
la_ssfctrlop_struc-langu       = ls_supplier_info-spras.
output_options type ssfcompop with values
ls_ssffaxop_struc-tdteleland   = ls_supplier_info-land1.
ls_ssffaxop_struc-tdtelenum    = lfa1-telfx.
ls_ssffaxop_struc-tdfaxuser    = syst-uname.
ls_ssffaxop_struc-tdnoprint    = 'X'.
along with "fax_details = ls_zap1_fax_details" declared as interface parameters to the Smart Form.
But the Function Module is throwing following exception and not sending any Fax.
SY-MSGID-->OL
SY-MSGNO-->356
SY-MSGV1-->NOAUTHORITYCHECK
Do I need to pass any other values to the FM, I felt that this is not an authorization problem after debugging.
Can any one please help me in handling this exception and send the fax,
Thanks,
Srinivas.
Edited by: Venkata Srinivas Inavilli on May 20, 2008 2:40 PM

may it be that in those cases where it doesnt work, that you got no fax number?
Since it works soemtimes, it seems there are no errors, but rather in some cases some important info is missing, fax number may be one of thsoe important info in a FAX scenario.

Problem using RFC to call an adobe form to create pdf file........

Hi,
   I have an RFC that calls an adobe form to display the pdf output back in a bsp page...the RFC fails at the call to the adobe form (next call after after getting the form name) ...while debugging it looks like within this call it is trying to call fpcomp_job_open and failing on the call check_job_open ...
The code in my RFC looks like this....
DATA:
    gs_outputparams TYPE sfpoutputparams,
    fn_name           TYPE rs38l_fnam,

Thanks,
Venkatesh

what is the solution for this problem? I have the same problem. I get sy-subrc = 1 after CALL FUNCTION 'FPCOMP_JOB_OPEN'.
If I look more in detail I see that "Perform check_job_open" is creating the problem:
FORM check_job_open.
IF fpstat-is_opened = c_true. (--> exactly here is the problem. This condition is true so the program is terminated.)
    PERFORM reset_status.
    MESSAGE ID 'FPRUNX' TYPE 'E' NUMBER '101' RAISING usage_error.
ENDIF.
fpstat-is_opened = c_true.
fpstat-is_started = c_false.
ENDFORM.
Does somebody know why my job is open and what is the solution to have the job closed at the beginning of my processing?
Thanks in advance.

Line Alignment Problem while sending Fax from SAP Script

Moderator message: please do not post the same question in different forums
Hi Experts,
While sending fax the horizontal lines are not displaying till the end of the page.
But in the print preview the lines are displying till the end.
If this is printed using local printer the lines are printing fine but the problem is with the fax.
Please provide me a solution for this.
Regards,
Rajesh.
Edited by: Matt on Nov 25, 2008 2:51 PM

Puzzling.
I've seen where the printed output doesn't match the print preview but not a fax not matching a print.
Do you use SAPConnect or the older SAPComm method for faxing?
How do you produce the horizontal lines? BOX commands, ULINE, '-', etc.?

In INT_FAX internal table we have two fields one is tdformat second one is tdline
The lengh of the TDLINE is 132 char,Initially for all reocords we have only 108 char length,But according to user requirement we added one more field in taht
Now the lengh increased to 132 for each records.
When i checked in debugg mode the INT_FAX internal table have all 132 characters.
The problem is while checking in SOST trnasaction it is showing 108 characters in one line and remaining in second line,can you please help on this.
Thanks In advance
Sriman.

may it be that in those cases where it doesnt work, that you got no fax number?
Since it works soemtimes, it seems there are no errors, but rather in some cases some important info is missing, fax number may be one of thsoe important info in a FAX scenario.

Weird character 'u00A4' display at output of ADOBE form in SAP for amount

When display pattern for amount field is set for ADOBE form in SAP, output displays ' ¤ '.
All display patterns shows '$' at the begining, but when output is generated it displays '¤'.
Advice me how to eliminate this. (or)
Is there a way to hide this character.

I am not saying this is your problem BUT I was troubled for quite a while by having unprintable characters imbedded within text fields. It turns out that Ctrl V character was being embedded within text by user.
So I suggest that you view the data while in debug and do it in hex. This was the only way I was able to see that I had a problem with the text itself. Then I was able to add logic to filter for these errors.

Problems Displaying data from RFC on Adobe Forms

Hi,
I have some Problems with creating an Adobe Form and hope, someone can help me or give me some hinds to some tutorials, which can help me.
I'm developing an webdynpro-application which get data from a R/3 via RFC-Call.
Context-Binding and so on is done and works. I created also an interactive form and can display some datas on it.
Here my questions:
I have an field 'unit' which shoulb be displayed on several positions onto the form. My problem is, i can display it only once. If i copy the field, there is no output in it. What can i do, to solve the problem?
From the RFC i get a table with several rows of data, i want to display on the form.
With drag&drop i can place the fields onto the form but they are displayed only once. I want one line for every row from the table.
What do i have to do? Are there tutorials which show the steps?
When I am not using a form, i can display the data from RFC in a table with no problems (i create a table ui and choose create binding from context menue). Are the nescessary steps for displaying the data on an interactive form the same.
I read something about creating a dynamic form design. Do i have to create it? What are the steps i have to do.
Many questions, but i hope that someone can give me some helpful hints.
Many thanks
Mathias Lange

Hi Mathias,
If I caught you correctly, you want to display data in Adobe forms in form of tabel, right?
So, follow the steps:
1. Insert one sub form on your adobe form.
2. Set its type as "flow content" in object->subform property.
3. Set flow direction as "Table".
4. Insert another subform inside this subform.
5. set its type as "flow content" and flow direction as "Table row".
6. Now, choose binding tab, and there check "repeat subform for each Data item check box" and specify min. count for your rows.
7. Now, insert your column fields inside this sub form once.
8. Format its look and feel as you want.
When you run this application, it will show you multiple data as table on Adobe form.

Bhavik

Configure SAPConnect for sending Fax Output

Hi all,
I have a business requirement to send a purchase order output thru Winfax. I wonder how this can be setup in SAP using SAPConnect?
In addition, I wonder if I want to send PO output thru a fax machine instead of Winfax, how would the setting be different?
Please advise.
Thanks.
Tom

Hi,
To control the output of the form, you use various fields in a structure with the type SFPOUTPUTPARAMS. When the form is called in the application program, these fields are sent to the function module FP_JOB_OPEN as parameters (IE_OUTPUTPARAMS).
If you want Output as Fax or E-Mail
1. In your application program, set the field SFPOUTPUTPARAMS-GETPDF.
2. The system sends the generated PDF form back to the application program, where it can then be forwarded to the interface of the Business Communication Services.

Problems with Image Field Table in Adobe Forms

Hello,
I have a desgined a Adobe Form(Print Only) in the Adobe Desinger in NWDS.
The form layout contains a table of images in 2 columns and 3 rows. Every Column has a Image Field and a TextField displaying the Image URL.
The URL of this image is passed at runtime.
The problem is that when the form is rendered, All the Columns have the same image which is the URL in the first row first column. However the text field displays the correct URL.
Is this some known bug in the Adobe Forms, or I am missing some property.
Regards,
Shubham

Hi,
The solution was to put the following code in the initialize event of the image field.
this.value.image.href = <Photoimagepath>.rawValue;
Where <Photoimagepath> is the image path.

Problem in sending fax

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement in which I need to send 3 copies of the same document via FAX.
The heading of all copies differ(for eg.Customer copy,haulier copy,DC copy).But i want all the 3 copies in ONE fax.I have written the following code for calling the smartform.
     MOVE: c_x        TO i_control_parameters-no_dialog,

          user_canceled      = 4
          OTHERS             = 5.
Inside the smartform I am changing the heading based on sfsy-copycount.
But I am getting only 1 copy in the output fax.
Please advise me what to do.
Thanks
Avinash

Hi , Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand that you're unable to send a fax to Hong Kong. I would like to assist you with this. In the office are you required to enter a number to get to the outside line? Have you ever been able to send faxes before?Are you able to send a fax to another recipient? Here's a document I would recommend that you try, HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color M276n and M276nw - Cannot Send or Receive Faxes. For more information, please see the Manaual and go to: Faxes can be received, but not sent, on Page 119.
Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you. Good Luck!
