smartforms
A Simple Smartform Tutorial
SAP Smartforms can be used for creating and maintaining forms for mass printing in SAP Systems. The output medium for Smartforms support printer, fax, e-mail, or the Internet (by using the generated XML output).
According to SAP, you need neither have any programming knowledge nor use a Script language to adapt standard forms. However, basic ABAP programming skills are required only in special cases (for example, to call a function module you created or for complex and extensive conditions).
1. Create a new smartforms
Transaction code SMARTFORMS
Create new smartforms call ZSMART
2. Define looping process for internal table
Pages and windows
First Page -> Header Window (Cursor at First Page then click Edit -> Node -> Create)
Here, you can specify your title and page numbering
&SFSY-PAGE& (Page 1) of &SFSY-FORMPAGES(Z4.0)& (Total Page)
Main windows -> TABLE -> DATA
In the Loop section, tick Internal table and fill in
ITAB1 (table in ABAP SMARTFORM calling function) INTO ITAB2
3. Define table in smartforms
Global settings :
Form interface
Variable name Type assignment Reference type
ITAB1 TYPE Table Structure
Global definitions
Variable name Type assignment Reference type
ITAB2 TYPE Table Structure
4. To display the data in the form
Make used of the Table Painter and declare the Line Type in Tabstrips Table
e.g. HD_GEN for printing header details,
IT_GEN for printing data details.
You have to specify the Line Type in your Text elements in the Tabstrips Output options.
Tick the New Line and specify the Line Type for outputting the data.
Declare your output fields in Text elements
Tabstrips - Output Options
For different fonts use this Style : IDWTCERTSTYLE
For Quantity or Amout you can used this variable &GS_ITAB-AMOUNT(12.2)&
5. Calling SMARTFORMS from your ABAP program
REPORT ZSMARTFORM.
Calling SMARTFORMS from your ABAP program.
Collecting all the table data in your program, and pass once to SMARTFORMS
SMARTFORMS
Declare your table type in :-
Global Settings -> Form Interface
Global Definintions -> Global Data
Main Window -> Table -> DATA
Written by : SAP Hints and Tips on Configuration and ABAP/4 Programming
http://sapr3.tripod.com
TABLES: MKPF.
DATA: FM_NAME TYPE RS38L_FNAM.
DATA: BEGIN OF INT_MKPF OCCURS 0.
INCLUDE STRUCTURE MKPF.
DATA: END OF INT_MKPF.
SELECT-OPTIONS S_MBLNR FOR MKPF-MBLNR MEMORY ID 001.
SELECT * FROM MKPF WHERE MBLNR IN S_MBLNR.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING MKPF TO INT_MKPF.
APPEND INT_MKPF.
ENDSELECT.
At the end of your program.
Passing data to SMARTFORMS
call function 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
exporting
formname = 'ZSMARTFORM'
VARIANT = ' '
DIRECT_CALL = ' '
IMPORTING
FM_NAME = FM_NAME
EXCEPTIONS
NO_FORM = 1
NO_FUNCTION_MODULE = 2
OTHERS = 3.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
WRITE: / 'ERROR 1'.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
endif.
call function FM_NAME
EXPORTING
ARCHIVE_INDEX =
ARCHIVE_INDEX_TAB =
ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS =
CONTROL_PARAMETERS =
MAIL_APPL_OBJ =
MAIL_RECIPIENT =
MAIL_SENDER =
OUTPUT_OPTIONS =
USER_SETTINGS = 'X'
IMPORTING
DOCUMENT_OUTPUT_INFO =
JOB_OUTPUT_INFO =
JOB_OUTPUT_OPTIONS =
TABLES
GS_MKPF = INT_MKPF
EXCEPTIONS
FORMATTING_ERROR = 1
INTERNAL_ERROR = 2
SEND_ERROR = 3
USER_CANCELED = 4
OTHERS = 5.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
endif.
Additional Fonts for your SMARTFORMS
You can create additional fonts and style with transaction SMARTSTYLES
This can then be define in the paragraph and character formats, which you can then be assign to texts and fields in the Smart Form.
The character formats includes effects such as superscript, subscript, barcode and font attributes.
Also, you can refer to the below link for the explanation:

  • Purchase order smart forms

    i have copied the purchase order smart form and activated it and know i have the function moudule which need to be used in program but i am not shure how to do that can any one tell me how i need to write the coding for simple purchae order and then pass on the data to the smart form so that it displays the output.

    What you do for inserting lines is to select line one of the screen table and then click the insert button.
    Do this for each line in your BDC and then you only have to worry about line one of the table:
    Code:
    Form Add_Item_Line Tables t_Item_Data
                        using pu_program     type Program_Name
                              pu_screen      like sy-dynnr
                              pu_insert_line like sy-ucomm
                              pu_insert_at   like sy-tabix
                              pu_werks       like Zorder_Header-Dwerk.
         Data: t_characteristics type Order_Lines,
               w_Characteristic like Zorder_Line.
         Perform Zbdc_Screen using pu_Program pu_Screen.
         Perform Zbdc_Field  using c_OkCode pu_insert_line.           <----
         Perform Zbdc_Screen using pu_Program pu_Screen.
         Loop at t_Item_Data into w_Characteristic.
            Is this actually part of the item line or is it a
            Characteristic ?
              Translate w_Characteristic-AtNam to Upper Case.
              Case w_Characteristic-AtNam.
                   When 'MATNR'.              " Material
                        Perform Zbdc_Subscript using 'VBAP-MATNR'
                                                     pu_insert_at
                                                     W_Characteristic-AtWrt.
                        Perform Zbdc_Subscript using 'VBAP-WERKS'
    Looking at it from a modification point of view, the aim will be always to bring the line of the table that you're interested in to line one of the table
    so again you only need to handle line one of the screen table. Some of the codes for this are 'POPO' in Purchase order processing, and 'SORT' in CO02:
    Code:
    Now loop round the P/O and delete all of those that we don't want
       Loop at t_ekpo.
          Keep this P/O Line item ?
            MOVE SY-TABIX TO W_POPO.
            PERFORM ZBDC_SCREEN USING 'SAPMV50A'   '0270'.
            PERFORM ZBDC_FIELD  USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=POPO'.
            PERFORM ZBDC_SCREEN USING 'SAPMV50A'   '0111'.
            PERFORM ZBDC_FIELD  USING 'RV50A-POSNR' W_POPO.
            PERFORM ZBDC_FIELD  USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '/00'.
            Read Table t_vl31_asn with key ebeln = t_ekpo-ebeln
                                           ebelp = t_ekpo-ebelp.
            If sy-subrc <> 0.
             Not found - discard this one.
               PERFORM ZBDC_SCREEN USING 'SAPMV50A'   '0270'.
               PERFORM ZBDC_FIELD  USING 'RV50A-LIPS_SELKZ(01)' 'X'.
            ELSE.
             Change the quantity....
               WRITE T_VL31_ASN-MENGE TO W_MENGE UNIT T_VL31_ASN-LMEIN.
               CONDENSE W_MENGE NO-GAPS.
               PERFORM ZBDC_SCREEN USING 'SAPMV50A' '0270'.
               PERFORM ZBDC_FIELD  USING 'LIPS-LFIMG(01)' W_MENGE.
            EndIf.
       EndLoop.
    Hope this helps.

  • Regarding building a purchase order smart form

    hi guys,
    i got to design a  purchase order smart form  which consists of 3 pages and i need to enclose " terms and conditions " on the back side of every page. To be more elaborative on first page purchase order details and back side of it " terms and conditions " and same way on other 2 pages.
    how do i do it, can any one help me with this.
    thank you very much
         pavan

    Hi
    If the smartform purchase order is not available in your system
    means you can download the form IDES and you can upload the form in ur ecc 6.0 system.we faced a similar kind of problem in our system and we did as i said.
    Once you uploaded the things you can easily view the form interface and rest of the things related to smartforms.

  • Smart forms and script

    hi,,
           will u tell what is the difference between smart forms and scripts.

    hI
    Sapscripts are client dependend and smartforms are client independet.
    SAPscript are CLient Dependent, SmartForms are Client Independent. The reason why SmartForms are client independent is because when you activate a SMartForm, SAP actually generates a Function Module (which as you know is client independent). The Print Program (or as SAP likes to refer to them these days - Application Program) calls your generated FM.
    In the "smartforms" transaction, when you are viewing a smartform, you can go to the Environment->Function Module Name menu path to see the FM name.
    Look at the "Application Program" for the Invoice SmartForm (RLB_INVOICE):
    determine smartform function module for invoice
        CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
             EXPORTING  formname           = lf_formname
                    variant            = ' '
                    direct_call        = ' '
             IMPORTING  fm_name            = lf_fm_name
             EXCEPTIONS no_form            = 1
                        no_function_module = 2
                        OTHERS             = 3.
    call smartform invoice
          CALL FUNCTION lf_fm_name
               EXPORTING
                          archive_index        = toa_dara
                          archive_parameters   = arc_params
                          control_parameters   = ls_control_param
                    mail_appl_obj        =
                          mail_recipient       = ls_recipient
                          mail_sender          = ls_sender
                          output_options       = ls_composer_param
                          user_settings        = space
                          is_bil_invoice       = ls_bil_invoice
                          is_nast              = nast
                          is_repeat            = repeat
         importing  document_output_info =
                    job_output_info      =
                    job_output_options   =
               EXCEPTIONS formatting_error     = 1
                          internal_error       = 2

    <b>Difference with SMARTFORMS vs. SapScript (SE71)</b>
    The Following are the differences :-
    a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
    b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
    c) Labels cannot be created in smartforms.
    d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
    e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
    Contributed by : SAP ABAP/4 Programming, Basis Administration, Configuration Hints and Tips
    f) Unlike sapscripts (RSTXSCRP), you cannot upload/download Smartform to your local harddisk. 
    It was said that it was provided in CRM 3.0 version, but not available in R/3.  You can download smartforms into Local PC in a XML format.  In the same way you can upload this XML format into Smartform.  From the smartform editor itself you can call download option, if you are working in CRM 3.0 environment. 
    In R3 also, you can download into XML format. However, it's not sure about uploading. Refer to the program 'SF_XSF_DEMO'.
    In 4.7 Enterprise, other have seen this utlity which is completey missing in 4.6c. There is functionality to downlaod a complete form or only a particular node. (Utilities -> Download form). It will create a XML file and save it in the hard disk. 
    For others, if you want to download/upload the Smartforms source, you will need the help from the Basis people.  What you can do is to create a Transport and then FTP down to your local harddisk.   When you need the Smartform source in another system, you have FTP up the Smartforms file back to the SAP server.  Finally, the Basis team, will tp it into your system.
    g) The protect and endprotect command in sapscript doesn't work with smartforms. For example on a invoice: First data of position no 80. is printed on page one, other data of position no 80 is printed on page 2. And there's nothing you can do about it.  Actually, there is something you can do about it.  By using a folder node and checking the 'protect' checkbox, everything in that folder will be page protected. 
    i) The main difference is that SAP script is client-dependant, while smartform is independent. Also there are some advanced and intreractive features available in smartforms.
    You can use an External subroutine-call in sapscript editor like:
      /: perform <form_name> in program <program_name>
      /: using <var1>
      /: using <var2>
      /: changing <return1>
      /: changing <return2>
      /:endperform

    d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
    e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated
    Scripts are client dependent whereas smartforms aren't.
    Upto 99 main windows are possible in scripts and only one in smarforms.
    To create multiple main windows in scripts, you just have to give the window type as MAIN whnever you create a window.
    Scripts still exists but smartforms are in use from 4.6c version, now the lastest version of these two is adobe forms
    SAP Smart Forms is introduced in SAP Basis Release 4.6C as the tool for creating and maintaining forms.SAP Smart Forms allow you to execute simple modifications to the form and in the form logic by using simple graphical tools; in 90% of all cases, this won't include any programming effort. Thus, a power user without any programming knowledge can
    configure forms with data from an SAP System for the relevant business processes.
    Advantages of SAP Smart Forms
    SAP Smart Forms have the following advantages:
    1. The adaptation of forms is supported to a large extent by graphic tools for layout and logic, so that no programming knowledge is necessary (at least 90% of all adjustments). Therefore, power user forms can also make configurations for your business processes with data from an SAP system. Consultants are only required in special cases.
    2. Displaying table structures (dynamic framing of texts)
    3. Output of background graphics, for form design in particular the use of templates which were scanned.
    4. Colored output of texts
    5. User-friendly and integrated Form Painter for the graphical design of forms
    6. Graphical Table Painter for drawing tables
    7. Reusing Font and paragraph formats in forms (Smart Styles)
    8. Data interface in XML format (XML for Smart Forms, in short XSF)
    9. Form translation is supported by standard translation tools
    10. Flexible reuse of text modules
    11. HTML output of forms (Basis release 6.10)
    12. Interactive Web forms with input fields, pushbuttons, radio buttons, etc. (Basis-Release 6.10)

  • Purchase order smart form - Version number and link to RFQ

    Hi I am making enhancements to the purchase order smartform and wanted to print the version number (ekko-revno) on the print layout.
    The structure for ekko which is being filled in at runtime from print program ZMMS_640FM06P has the field 'revno' blank. It is filling in the rest all fields. When I go into the ekko table I can see a value in this field. Does anyone know why this field is NOT being filled. I do not want to do a select on this field again in my smart form.
    I would also like to know if there is a any way you can track back the RFQ number for a particular PO.
    Thanks in advance..

    I hope It wil be there in table, check the entry & check teh work area entry.
    Quotation will be available in PO item data. Keep  a break point in Table and workarea.

  • Creating a Purchase Order Smart Form (Form Interface)

    After reading up on all the posts about making a PO smart form I know this:
    - An SAP script "medruck" is the current output
    - A smartform exists for PO's named "/SMB40/MMPO_L" or "/SMB40/MMPO_A"
    - You need to install an update to get those smartforms if you are using ECC 6.0
    So my dilemma is that the SAP administrator is on vacation for a week, so I can't install the update to our system.  I'm trying to just create it from scratch using the medruck SAP script as a reference, but I am a little confused.
    Basically all I need to know is what form interface parameters do I pass in?  Meaning how do I find out what structures and tables are imported into the function module when print preview is called from t-code ME22N?  Can you please provide proper syntax for form interface solution or instructions on how to determine imported variables into the smartform?

    Hi
    If the smartform purchase order is not available in your system
    means you can download the form IDES and you can upload the form in ur ecc 6.0 system.we faced a similar kind of problem in our system and we did as i said.
    Once you uploaded the things you can easily view the form interface and rest of the things related to smartforms.

  • Find the translation of smart form and script

    Hi, I am new in this forum. 30.04.2009
    1.) I have to translate a smart form from German to english and to hungry. I use SE63 translate the text. The elements get a new name with the language in the name. I activate it.
    In the formula at the form attributes -> translate -> in all languages
    I put it in a transport, but where they are??? I can see it there are with the name in the Formula.
    I can not find the translation.
    2.) I must change the formula, I must translate it again? I use SE63. I don't find the
    translation of the formula. The same like oben.
    I hope you can help me.
    With best regards
    Heinz

    Hi Heinz,
    1) You do not see the translation of the SmartForm in the TP request. The idea is that it will get transported with all the associated texts from SE63.
    2) You cannot translate texts that only have variables (&abc& elements) in them. The idea is that they will remain the same in whichever language you will use.So, changing the formula in the original language means it will be changed in all the languages.
    But, if you have a row something like: Material &matnr& produced in &country&, this row will appear in SE63 and you will have to translate it because it contains texts outside of variables.

    George

    WE ARE GOING THROUGH UP GRADATION PROJECT.SO I NEED THE TCODE FOR OBSOLETED TCODE FOR SCRIPTS TO SMARTFORMS IN FI.

    Hi Arun Kumar,
    Generally we do changes in SE71 itself for any forms
    but the forms of FI module, we assign in SPRO.
    Goto SPRO there click on Display SAP Reference IMG push button or  (F5) .
    Now search for FORMS. Give the Search term as FORMS and press enter.
    Here u get the hit list for FORMS related to all the functional modules. select the FI related forms and double click on it. Then u get the dropdown where the forms are located.
    Foe Example here is a path for Assign payment forms for payment method in company code
    In SPRO --->Display IMG

  • Purchase order smart form - e-mail smartform output and item attachments

    Hi,
    Our release is ECC5.0. By configuration the PO smartform can be e-mailed to vendor as PDF attachment by standard output medium,external send. And this already works. However, the additional functionality required is:
    1.) The documents attached to the actual PO line items should also be e-mailed as attachments to the vendor.
    How can I accomplish this?
    Do I need to write addition logic in my print program to retrieve these attachments by PO number and send them as a seperate e-mail with attachment? OR
    Is there any way to send these attachments on the same e-mail where the PO is sent as a PDF attachment. OR
    Can this be done by configuration?
    Regards,
    K..

    Hi Ahmad ,
    I got the same problem with a little more complexity because the mail can b send to several mails adresses ( some in copy ).
    For the requirement to send also the document linked in PO's item , there's no standard solution . So you need to write a specific program for this .
    You can have a look at this Sending DMS documents  as Email attachments , you will find information on how to retrieve the content of the document.
    Let me know if you need more explanation.
    Best regards.

    Hi,
    Companies depend on formal documents that reflect their corporate identities and contain critical business information from live systems. SAP and Adobe partnered for automating and streamlining forms-based communication to support customers who create reusable forms for their business processes.
    SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe will be used more and more as a way of simplifying and automating manual processes.
    There are various advantages of Adobe forms.
    SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe provides all the features and functions you need to create form-based output, such as order confirmations, invoices, or pay slips. You can either print such documents or send them by email or FAX.
    <b>Online Interactive Forms</b>
    A user logs on to the company intranet to fill in a form required by the HR department (for example, a Non-Disclosure Agreement to be signed by a new employee). The form is displayed in the browser.
    As the user is logged on in the background to the company's HR system, his master data is displayed in the form. The user enters the required information in the fillable fields of the interactive form, and sends the data back to the system by pushing a button. The system extracts the data from the form and saves it in the database.
    <b>Offline Interactive Forms</b>
    The purchasing department of a company creates a bid in its Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system and selects the potential vendors. Based upon this data, the system automatically creates interactive bidding forms with specific vendor information, such as the address or contact person.
    The forms are transmitted to the vendors by email. The vendors can fill out the forms offline (without being connected to the system that created the forms) and transmit them back to the company. The company then processes the forms automatically, and the data provided by the vendors is written to the ERP system. The purchasing department uses the data to evaluate the quotation and then issues an order.
    <b>With the integration of Adobe PDF technology into its solutions, SAP will be able to further extend its offerings of end-to-end business solutions by:</b>
    Providing for the first time the capabilities of Adobe's interactive PDF-based forms.
    Integrating PDF documents into business processes that are driven by SAP applications.
    Automating the process of moving XML data from SAP applications into interactive forms and vice versa.
    Reducing time to design, manage, and maintain extended forms-based processes through easy-to-use forms design and deployment tools.
    Offering its customers enhanced printing capabilities, in particular for interactive Web applications.
    The focus of new forms technology from SAP is interactive PDF-based forms that can be created in SAP systems as a result of the <b>integration of Adobe technology with Web Dynpro and the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.</b> This integration means that adobe is the future technology.
