Reg forms and smartforms

Hi All,
I have a very basic question it's like how did the data will come to the print program of a standard form?They use any select statements inside the driver program?Usually we will trigger the form printing from transactios like VA01,VA02 and all how the data flow between transaction, print program and layout?from print program it will go using write_form fun module i think.
Thanks&Regards
Mahesh

Hi!
You're right they may use selects in the standard printer programs. However sometimes they are not using select. In the standardd transaction they put the relevant data into ABAP memeory (using EXPORT command), and in the printer program they retrieve it using the IMPORT command.
But mostly it is not important, where the data come from. You have to copy the standard printer programs and then you only have to modify a few things and not to rewrite everything.

Select the text you have written in the created text element and on top of the text only there is an option for Paragraph and character formats which will give you the dropdown list with all the paragraphs and character formats u have created. choose the desired one and it will reflect..
OR alternately you can go to the editor and wite the code as in SAP SCRIPTS by providing the Paragraph name or Character name urself.

How to Copy Standard form in Smartforms?

Hi Experts,
can anyone tell how to copy a standard form in Smartforms.
Thanks in advance

Hi Abdul,
We have to copy them to '800'. (this is your own company define client no)
All Standard Scripts and their respective print programs are listed in table 'TNAPR'.
Ex: FORM MEDRUCK has the Driver Program SAPFM06P.
NOTE: Never make any changes to the Standard Driver Programs
STEP 1.
Goto Transaction Code <SE71> and
select from Menu UTILITIES ->Copy from Client.
Enter the Standard Form Name, It source Client 000 and the target Form Name that you want it to be saved as on your client.
Say you are naming it as zmedruck1.
Click on EXECUTE.
STEP 2.
Converting form to English.
Open zmedruck1 in <SE71> With language DE.
Then goto UTILITIES -> Convert Original Language from DE to EN.
Then you can modify the layout for example, chaging the logo, or changing the headers, or adding any new code to do some calculation etc.,
SAVE THE CHANGES AND ACTIVATE.
Then select from the menu FORM -> CHECK -> TEXT.
SELECT your driver program name from the list adn click on COPY.
If you don't see the program name in the list then click on
'APPEND PRINT PROGRAM' and add your program name and then select it from the list and click on COPY.
STEP 3: Assigning our form to the standard print program.
Start Tr.Code <NACE>.
In our present case since we are working on 'Purchase order' we have to select EF and click on the button Output Types.
Then on Right hand side, scroll down and select NEU - New P O Printout.
(This may change for different programs).
Then Double click on Processing Routines on Left hand side.
Change from Display -> Change Mode.
Give your form name (zmedruck1) for printoutput and SAVE.
STEP 4:
Start Tr.Code <ME22N> since you are working on Purchase order and click on print Preview to make sure your layout etc., changes are OK. If not again you have to make the changes accordingly.
If every thing looks ok then you can print your form.

Sathish:)

About SAPscripts and smartforms

Hi all,
         I am working on SAPscripts and i have one doubt.
I want to know the concepts how data is communicated between SAP scripts and print program.Suppose I am writing one subroutine. Can i write the form statements in the print program of the script or I have to write it in another program.
         I want whether SAPscript is calling the print program or vice versa.
         Please tell me the same concepts regarding smartforms.
         Please experts provide me a vivid idea so that I can get the concepts clear.
    With regards,
      Abir.

HI
GOOD
AS PER YOUR REQUIREMENT HERE I AM GIVING SOME POINTS RELATING TO SAP SCRIPT AND DRIVER PROGRAM
WHEN YOU R CREATING A SAPSCRIPT FORM IT CANT ABLE TO EXECUTE OF ITSELF, FOR EXECUTION IT NEEDS HELP .THAT IS THE REASON YOU R CREATING A DRIVER PROGRAM.
IF YOU GO THROUGH A DRIVER PROGRAM YOU CAN FIND OUT THAT YOU R PASSING THE SAP SCRIPT NAME AS A PARAMTER.SO YOUR DRIVER PROGRAM IS CALLING YOUR SAP SCRIPT FORM.
USING THE DRIVER PROGRAM YOU ARE PASSING THE APPROPRIATE VALUE FOR THE VARIBALE THAT YOU R GOING TO PRINT IN THE SAP SCRIPT FORM.
=============================
SMARTFORM CONCEPT=>
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)&
THANKS

String search in SAP Script and Smartforms

Hi All,
We have an urgent requirement where we need to search for a character string in all SAP Scripts and Smartforms in our system.
It would also help if we can get the names of programs/function modules which are internally generated for the same.
Any pointers on the same would be helpful.
Regards,
Saurabh

You can create a variable window in the main window.
You can restrict the last item of the main window by varying the size of main window. In your wite-form ,
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
      EXPORTING
         element                  = 'ITEM'
      function                 = 'SET'
      type                     = 'BODY'
      window                   = 'MAIN'
      EXCEPTIONS
        element                  = 1
        function                 = 2
        type                     = 3
        unopened                 = 4
        unstarted                = 5
        window                   = 6
        bad_pageformat_for_print = 7
        spool_error              = 8
        codepage                 = 9
        OTHERS                   = 10.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
DO this. in the bottom of the main window, create a variable window.
you can add your text in the variable window inside main window.
it will be displayed just after the item ends.

Reg scipts n smartforms

Hi All,
Cud u pls let me know
1. the differences between scripts and smartforms..???
2. differences between standard text and text module in smartforms???
3. how do u upload graphics(logos) in smartforms?
Its really very urgent.
Thanx in Advance.

Hi,
1. The Following are the differences :-
a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
(like For the same form u can have one page with Landscape orientation and 2nd page with portrait orientation which is not available with scripts...)
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.
( Here u need to use the function module (thats been generated when u have activated the smart form) to call the smart form in your print program )
f) Here u can give colors to windows , texts , window edges .... which is not possible with scripts !!!
g) 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
h) The most important one is these smart forms are CLIENT INDEPENDENT
2. Text module (an encapsulated text) can be reused in several forms, whereas Standard text can be used in any form any number of times by calling its name, once it is released.
3. Use the SE78 T Code to upload graphics .
Hope this resolves your query.
Reward all the helpful answers.

Program RFKORD50_PDF and SMARTFORMS

Hello
Does the program RFKORD50_PDF only use PDF based forms, or can it be configured to allow the use of SMARTFORMS?
I was looking in the code of the program and I saw the following line:
DATA: save_ftype TYPE rfkord_ftype. "space, 2 smartforms, 3 pdf
Nowhere in the program can I find the value of "2" being used.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Peter Graham
Cooper Standard

Hi Peter,
It reminds me what I have done on RFKORD50 report if I remember well, it was exactly the same issue, and I had enhanced the source (something like a modification of the standard) to be able to process smart forms, and it was pretty easy to do. I also had to enhance a DDic view so that we can enter the form type in the customizing table. Unfortunately, I haven't a more precise answer

RMA FORM USING SMARTFORMS

I have been requested to make a Return Material Authorization RMA form using smartforms.
My questions are: Is there any standard template/format in SAP I can use. And if there is, is there any standard ABAP program which i can use with the form (if one is required) and what are the steps to take to do and complete this task.
N.B i hava a Functional Spec docu for this and i'm also expected to write a Tech Design Docu. for it.
I'll be grateful for your help

Hi,
I think there are some examples you can use, but smartforms is quite easy to learn. I think that the SF "/SAPDII/RETPA_LIST" might be sort of what you are looking for, but if you find it to dificult, just start a new one. The SAP Help is pretty easy to follow.
As for the program to "call" the form, you will have to develop yourself, but unlike SAPSCRIPT you won't need to control the drawing of the form. In smartforms, the form generates a Function Module with an Interface, which will control the drawing of the form. The program only needs to get the info necessary and then call the FM generated with the parameters you defined in the form.
You will need only to know one FM to call the form within the report.
FM SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME - This one will return the name of the FM that was generated by the form. Parameter is the name of the smartform and return is the name of the FM.
Then you just call the FM that was returned in the previous FM (usually names are something like "/1BCDWB/SF00000006").
Reward points if found helpful....
Cheers,
Chandra Sekhar.

SAP Interactive Forms and SAP Smart Forms for Human Capital Management

Hi gurus,

What are the differences between Smart Forms and Adobe Forms?
For both of them, SAP dynamically creates a function module that must be called from an ABAP program to generate the form
In Smart Forms, it is possible to add ABAP code during generation of the form, that is not possible with Adobe Forms
It is possible to add javascript or FormCalc code in Adobe Forms, which is executed during the generation of the form
