Re: Adobe forms - interface type

Hi...
    When Iam creating the interface ... it is asking  Description and
                                           interface type as         ABAPDictionary- Based interface
                                                                            XML Scheme- Based Interface
                                                                         Smartforms-Compatible interface...    Have to select one option.. In some Examples I didnt see this interface type Option... what is the use  of this interface type...
Thanks & Regards,
Abaper..

hello again,
i tried to list all the things u need to know to create your interface:
1.      Open the required interface in the Repository Browser of the ABAP Workbench.
2.      The Interface tab is displayed. Under Form Interface, double-click the Import node
3.      You see a screen for entering import parameters. This screen also shows the standard parameter /1BCDWB/DOCPARAMS. You cannot change this parameter.
You use this parameter in your application program, to specify the value for the language setting, for example. To display this structure in the ABAP Dictionary, double-click the SFPDOCPARAMS type.
4.      XML schema-based interface
○     The standard parameter /1BCDWB/DOCXML with the type XSTRING is used for sending data from the application program.
ABAP-based or Smart-Forms-compatible interface
○     To insert a new line, choose Insert Line (This graphic is explained in the accompanying text). Enter the parameter names of the data you want to import. These names are valid for the whole form and do not have to match the variable names in the data collection program. All data types are valid. TYPE can be selected under Type Assignment.
5.      When you double-click Export, you see the standard parameter /1BCDWB/FORMOUTPUT of the generated function module. You cannot change this parameter.
Note: You use this parameter in your application program, to make the generated form available as a PDF for further processing, for example.
6.      To display the exceptions used by the generated function module, double-click Exceptions.
7.      Activate the interface.
Note: At runtime, the application program must provide the parameters. If a parameter has been defined in the form, but is not defined when the application program is called, then the output of the form ends with the program crashing (hex dump).
However, it is also possible that the application program provides parameters that the form does not need. You do not need to mention these parameters in the form; they can also be specified in a different order from the code of the application program. This has the advantage that an application program can work with several different forms.
Hope this helps
Cheers

  • ABAP Script value incorrectly reflected in ADOBE form interface.

    Hi ,
    I have an issue. In ABAP Script, the unit of measure value for VBDPL-VRKME is 'STK'. But it is printed as 'EA' in ADOBE form.
    Would you please suggest me an idea to fix this issue as I am new to SAP not much aware of fixing issues other than debugging.
    Best Regards

    Go to SE11 for table  VBDPL.  Find field VRKME and double-click the data element.  Then double-click the domain...MEINS.  You'll note that MEINS has the CONVERSION routine populated.   After you do a read on the database, call the conversion routine Function module (double-click the conversion field to get the name) to convert the database value to the display value.  This is what SAP programs do when there is a conversion routine...  In this case, you'll probably find that the EA is correct because 'EA' is likely the user-display value for database value STK.

  • Adobe Form attaching it to Standard transaction

    Hi Experts,
    I've developed a Adobe Form & Interface for Purchase Order Now I want to attach it to the purchase order Transaction ME22 for print preview & then for print.How to attain this, & where to  attch my program?
    Thanks in advance.
    Your efforts will be valued.
    Regards
    Hemendra.

    Hi,
    Normally the purchase order printout is associated with NEU output type. You can see this from header->messages tab in Me22. Once you are sure about what output type you are going to use, then you can configure the output type via SPRO transaction. MM->purchasing->Messages->Output Control-> Message types->Define message types for purchase order.
    there you can enter your program name , form routine in "Processing Routines" node . Once you ensure that there are condition records entered for this to happend , then whenever a purchase order is created , the output type is triggered automatically and you end up having a printout available for your use as required.
    Regards,
    Raymond.

  • Calling adobe form from webdynpro abap view

    Hi,
    I need some help. The situation is: I have created a Adobe form interface as well as a form using the SFP transaction. Now, I have a webdynpro screen with a button, which upon pressed must give the output of the PDF form.
    I tried the following steps:
    1. Call function 'FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
    2. Call 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
    3. Call the generated function module name
    4. Call FP_JOB_CLOSE.
    The procedure works fine when I use the same code in a report program. It opens a dialog box where there is a option for Print preview and it displays the PDF.
    But when I try to replicate the same, it does not work in Webdynpro for ABAP. Any suggestions as to how to go about this problem?
    regards,
    Praveen Kumar

    Hi Praveen
    there is documentation on the Web Dynpro for ABAP integration of Interactive Forms in the SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/aa/940ee5331b4b8fa0a6cb6714dc5db4/frameset.htm which should answer most of your questions.
    You specify the form to be used during the design of your Web Dynpro application (you are prompted to determine it when you insert the UI element).
    You can save the form from the Reader toolbar, the question would be why would you want to do this and not use a proper download screen.
    A proper tutorial is planned to be available in June. Until then, check the ABAP page in SDN for some e-learning / webinar recording), or directly here: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/media/uuid/c766e918-0b01-0010-99b1-c2b78cd059b3

  • Suppress Print Dialogue while calling ADOBE FORM

    Hi,
    How to suppress the Print dialogue when I call PDF FORM.
    In Smart form interface we have a field no_dialogue in the structure SSFCTRLOP to suppress print dialogue.
    But in the Function Module generated by Adobe Form or in the Adobe Form Interface we don't have such structure to control the print dialogue.
    awaiting the answers.

    Hi,
    Please tell me in detail what is difference between interface types for an adobe form.
    Thanks.

    Hi Riya,
    If you are using WD ABAP, in that case goto layput tab. And then Menu --> Palettes --> Object.
    In the Object tab you can change the properties of all the fields.

  • Adobe Form called from SAP Portal, not executing interface global init code

    Hello!
    I have an adobe form called from both R/3 and SAP Portal and I need to show long text dinamically calculated.
    The deal is at the SAP Portal execution, as scenario characteristics don't allow string definitions, I'm using 255 characters tables (QISR_TAB_TYPE), that I'm trying to convert inside form interface (Global init code).
    The problem is that the interface global init code is being executed when the form is called from R/3, but it is not at SAP Portal.
    Does anybody know how to manage this? It's kind of a problem that the BAdi method int_service_request_init doesn't allow types over 255 characters... and if it is not possible to access the form interface code section (maybe there's any way)... i need to find some code section where i can convert tables before the form context is filled!!
    Thanks a lot!!
    Regards,
    Diana.

  • Adobe Form with XML interface cannot retrieve all data from SAP

    hi all
    I want to use the Adobe forms for the real estate module.
    I had seen that adobe forms can have an interface with XML input and output as parameter.
    In the interface type only the /DOCPARAMS an the DOCXML are INPUT parameters which are available.
    No other INPUT parameter can be added to it.
    When i try to retrieve the data in real estate there are some default function modules for retrieving the data from real estate.
    But this function modules also are going to find out if the form which asks for this information has a IMPORT parameter
    for the required data. For example, the SENDER data is retrieved, but before the default function module retrieve this data
    the function module checks if the form has a INPUT parameter SENDER.
    And that is not the case. And i cannot create the SENDER parameter to it, because this INTERFACE type does not allow it.
    Does anybody know a solution herefore?
    kind regards,
    Anton Pierhagen

    Hi Bhaskar
    It is a long time ago, almost 2 years.
    I created my own custom development for calling the Adobe form. This custom development uses the correct function module interface with the IMPORT XML.
    The XML which i sent as IMPORT PARAMETER to the form is also created by own custom development. Via the default XML class of SAP
    So that was my solution
    Kind regards,

  • Need to configure output type for adobe form

    Hello All,
    I need to configure output type for Adobe Form thru NACE. What would be print program and how do I call my form from that program? and, what would be the FORM routine for that form in NACE?
    I'm little confused, Pls I need your help.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi,
    Just before few weeks we did this task.
    Say for example if you want to print PO details through ADOBE form instead of normal sapscript layout or standard MEDRUCK, you can follow the following steps.
    1. Design the form in SFP tcode, by passing the necessary inputs through form interface.
    2. Then use tcode tcode NACE and select EF as application and click output types button on the          application tool bar. Select NEU output type and double click processing routines on left side.
    3. Then, in the right side of the screen we can see the calling program and the form (may be sapscript or smartform) whatever used.
    4. For form names we have two options in NACE tcode.
    One is Form and the otherone is PDF/Smartform Form. If you are using adobe form give your form name under PDF/Smartform and also select PDF under the type option in the same screen.
    This worked perfectly for us. But pass the required parameters to the form from the routine used in standard program.
    If any queries please post it.
