R/3 forms on Portal

Hi,
System:
We have EP6SP2, ITS and R/3 4.7 installed on three diff machines.
Situation:
When I create SmartForm and call it in the portal via the ITS, automatically the output goes to Adobe Acrobat Reader from where I can print the form output.
Problem:
The problem is that before opening the pdf form, a popup comes asking me for a print preview option. And when I click on print preview, only then the adobe opens. Now This extra popup is redundant on the portal as the pdf form itself is the preview. How to bypass the extra print preview popup window.
Thanks & Regards,
Shobhit

Hi,
Can you let me know how did you do this?
Because I have been working on this for couple of days and couldn't find a solution.
Hope you might have found a solution for removing the popup. if not, you can do that through the control parameters and output_options to the smartform FM. And also, I think you need to maintain a default printer
settings under your user profile, then it won't popup the
window.
Can you please send me the logic, how you have got the
pdf automatically when you execute a smartfrom through
enterprise portal. I am getting the same way, but when
I press the print preview button in the popup, i am getting nothing and it is displaying a window with message "Page can't be displayed" . if possible can you
send me the code also?
Regards,
Srinivas

Integrating Offline adobe form in Portal

Hi All,
I created offline adobe form using SFP tcode.
This form needs to be integrated in Portal. When user logs in, he/she should be able to open this form.
Can offline adobe form can be integrate to portal directly? or do we need to create the Webdynpro applications only for poral?
Please let me know whether we can integarate offline adobe form to portal directly. If not why?.. I don't know about portal.
Thank you!
Prasad

Hi Deepika,
This discussion thread is all about integrating a WebDynpro application which contains adobe form into portal.
I assume your requirement is different which needs to upload an offline adobe form into portal.
There are documents available to explain this functionality in detail. Please note down the following.
1) For uploading adobe form should be XML schema based.
2) There should be a webdynpro application with uploader UI element which has been integrated into the portal.
3) On form upload, you will get all the data associated with the form within webdynpro
Thanks & Regards,

Nested Tables, Forms and Portal

I am trying to implement a form in Portal that accesses a nested table. I can access normal tables but not my nested table. The nested table within the master table are object tables.
When trying to access from the designer page I get an error indicating that table does not exist even though it was displayed in the pick list.
Has anyone had success with this and can it be done.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by chetan.kashyap ([email protected]):
Actually nested tables are not supported by portal till now.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Chetan, can you be a bit more specific. What do you mea by 'till now'. Does this mean the next release can do it, or the current release shipped with Oracle 9i Application Server 1.0.2.0.0 for linux that I received.

Adobe Forms On Portal

Hi Experts,
My requirement is i need to create the interactive adobe form and this adobe form is finally accessed through portal and there are some approval process involved in this scenario. Now my doubt is do i need to create the adobe form through webdynpro stack or can i create the form and interface directly in transaction "SFP". If i create the form using SAP GUI is it possible to access such forms through portal. I need your suggestions and comments on this.
Finally my doubt is can we access the interactive adobe forms which are developed in transaction "SFP" through portal, and my print program also exists in the ABAP editor which has logic to fetch and display the data into adobe forms.
or do we need web dynpro application to access the interactive adobe form through portal.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Venkat

Anto,
Thanks for the info, actual my requirment is when ever user login into portal he will find list of purchase orders then in the object work list(OWL). He will choose one record and click edit button then the adobe form corresponding to that purchase order should open in edit mode, now here my question is how can my print program in SAP GUI know that the user has choosen particular purchase order, i will fetch the data based on my selection criteria and i can display data according to that, but how can i display the data in edit mode when the user has choosen some record from OWL.
For example : if user selects purchase order 123 from object work list then the same purchase order 123 header and item details should open in the adobe form in edit mode. If my application is developed in SAP GUI side then how can my application program fetch the data related to pirchase order 123 in portal. When i write an ABAP program i will write the logic to fetch and display the data according to my selection criteria, i am unware of what is happening at protal side how can one map my selection criteria details to the record selected in object work list, is this possible , if not what is the alternative way. kindly suggest
For such type of requirement, what exactly need to be done either web dynpro interactive form or SAP GUI interactive form.
Or both scenario's also possible. Kindly suggest.
How can we achieve this using web dynpro application or SAP GUI application.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Import oracle forms into portal

Can anyone please give me some pointers in importing forms created by orcale forms into portal?

There is no direct way to import your Oracle Forms into Oracle Portal, as the Forms within our Portletbuilder components are of a smaller, simpler functionality set than that provided within Oracle Forms.
What I would recommend is to invoke your Oracle Forms from Portal by integrating Forms with Oracle Single-Sign-On (SSO). Integration of Oracle Forms with Oracle SSO is described in Chapter 5 of the Oracle9iAS Forms Services Deployment Guide, available here on OTN:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/B10170_01.pdf
Hope this helps.

Session user when integrate Forms and Portal

Hello!
Iam working with Forms made in developer suite inside Portal and want to know how the session user (the user that is logged) is obteined to insert his login with another items in a table of my own db.
i used
portal.wwctx_api.get_user()
and in another chance:
get_application_property('sso_userid');
but doesn't work....Somebody have another idea?

Hello Everybody!
i followed the steps in http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/frm9isrw9i.pdf to configure forms to use SSO, and when i try to run the form from portal i obtain the following error message:
FRM92050 failed to connect to the server /forms90/l90servlet:-1
and in the details the first error show:
User does not have proper credentials configured in OID.
First, i think that "l90servlet" is wrong because the correct url is with "f90servlet" or this refer another thing?
Second, my forms run excelent before i configure SSO, but i need this to use the get_application_property...
Please, somebody can help me? :$

Oracle Forms and portal

Does any one know how to integrate oracle forms into portal. I am using Oracle 10g?
Thanks

How do you want the integration to function? Do you just need a form to run on a page or do you need the form to interact with Portal functionality?
The former is easy to accomplish with a frame portlet. The latter not so easy but doable. Using the database as the common denominator its possible to have Forms interact with Portal thru PLSQL and data tables acting as state repositories.

Forms and Portal

when remote db is used in forms,an error is popped up saying that remote queries could not be executed.
Is it possible to build forms with portal for insert, update and delete operations.

Yes. You must create the following in the Public Schema under Database Objects.
Database link to remote database.
Synonyms for the tables you will be using.
Now under Providers, create a Portal DB Provider. I use the same name as the Database link created above.
Note: (I have not been able to create forms to the remote database using any other names.)
Now in your Portal DB Provider you can Create New Forms --> Form based on table or view . In the Table or View page type in the Public Synonym you created above. This Synonym probably will not show in the list.
This should get you started.
Good Luck

Adobe Forms in Portal

Adobe Forms in Portal
Manager Self Service:
Say suppose i want to integrate "Change Personnel Area and Sub Area" into Portal:
I can deploy the MSS Business Package in Portal & with the appropriate iviews installed i can access "Change Personnel Area and Sub Area" in Portal.
The above thing works without any issues.
I have ads configured, acf & adobe lifecycle designer installed -- config tests are successfull for some sample webdynpro applications.

NEW Requirement:
Users want to see the same "Change Personnel Area and Sub Area (ISR_FORM_SPPA, ISR_IF_SPPA) " in Portal as adobe interactive forms.
Can you tell me where i have to start to accomplish the above task?
Any insight on the below stuff would be higly appreciated and rewarded.
1)?backend tcode sfp?
2)?web dynpro java?
3)?business package Enterprise Portals?
Thanks in Advance,
RK.

Hi RK,
We had a similar requirement and we used Web Dynpro for Java which contained the Interactive Form that would display the personnel area, personnel sub area, etc.
We developed a custom application in WD Java which would accept entries from the user on each screen after clicking on the Change Personnel area link in the portal. The user would put in the values and when the user would click on the Submit button, an adobe form would be displyed which would show the existing values as well as the values the user newly entered.
Hope this helps. Do let me know if you need any further inputs.

Cannot create new form in portal

hello
i have a problem creating a form in portal!
i log in portal with the username orcladmin, then i click on builder -> navigator -> providers -> open(any provider) -> create new form (or report or chart)
i get the error in internet explorer The page cannot be found (link =http://marpolas.marpol.si:7783/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwexp_api_engine.create_action)
in netscape the error is a little different
The requested URL /pls/portal/PORTAL.wwv_menu.menu was not found on this server.
it is imposible for me to create new forms in portal.
Any ideas?
thanks in advance
Marjan
p.s
i use portal on windows 2000 server, 1800mhz and 1gb ram

Sounds like a problem with the privileges.
Try creating a new user, say user_temp, and grant the user Manage privilege to All Portal DB Providers and Manage to All Schemas.
Try creating a form after logging in as user_temp.
The minimum privileges required to create a Portal DB provider component is Create privilege on the Portal DB Providers and Manage on the Portal DB Provider schema.

Setting Oracle form on Portal

Hi All,
I'm developing oracle form on portal that will be used for 38 branches. Every branch has their own data (using the same table) but the same form, the different is only selecting their own data. I have no idea how to implement this other than creating 38 form for each branches. so 1 changes on a form should be replicated to 38 branches. Can i configure 1 form for every branches?
best regards,
~Diko~

Seems to me like implementing VPD in your database would be your best bet. By setting a context, you can ensure that each branch will see only the data relevant or specific to that branch.
Hope this helps

Inserting developed forms into portal

What do I need to do to insert a form I build in forms developer into my portal? Please go step by step. Thanks a lot!!

Mathew,
if you simply link from portal to forms then the required trasks are simple in that you create a link in Portal and provide the Forms startup URL. In Oracle9i Forms, Forms and Portal share the same SSO scheme so that you are fine for that.
If you like forms to be a Portlet within Portal, then there are quite some difficulties to be aware of:
1. It seems that Portal doesn't pass the full HTTP header to Forms which means that Forms does not know about the Browser type your are using (as well as the language set on the client). This measn you have to configure the application to always use JInitiator (which works on both Browser types)
2. Portal redirects the request making relative URLs fail. Make sure you use absolute URLs in the formsweb.cfg file (e.g. the serverURL parameter for the Forms Listener Servlet).
3. In Forms9i, reloading a page does restart Forms and reloading a page is what Portal does all the time. Use the Java 1.4 Plugin instead of JInitiator and set the legacy parameter to make it behave like Forms6i. Note that the change in behaviour was added by SUN in Java.
4. In Portal use the URL portlet from the JPDK to link Forms into Portal
Actually from exoerience our recommendation still is to run Forms in an extra Window.
