Reg: WebDynpro Adobe Interactive forms

Hi Experts,
      I am using an application where i have 2 screens, First screen I have a button Create, when i click on Create a new window with interactive form opens where I have an Adobe form in Editable mode, here i need to enter data and save which gets saved in DB. I have a Save button and back button in this screen
      I am using Interactive form with displaytype as Native, Template Source as Custom developed one, whose interface is an XML Based interface and layout type is ZCI. The XML based Interface was generated with the Node in WebDynpro application.
      When i traverse to the screen with adobe form in editable mode and click save or back button, nothing happens, the internet explorer shows a wait status and nothin else happens. The whole process stands still with a image showing wait. Does Anyone have an idea why this problem has arised? I even tried to put a debugger in the code of save button but the problem is its not going to that part of code itself.
Please help ASAP.
Regards
Naveen

hi,
If that is laready done, then you should check if the form is set to be of Dynamic Type.
You can check that in Layout Tab. By accessing the menu option Edit->Form Properties.
This wll display a window, in that click on Defaults tab , there make sure on the DropDown for XDP preview format, "Acrobat 7 (Dynamic) XML Type" or "Acrobat 8 (Dynamic) XML Type" is selected.
Hope this solves your problem.

ABAP Webdynpro ADOBE interactive form

Hi All,
I have a problem when reading attachments from online adobe interactive form in Webdynpro ABAP.
I have tried two options:
Option1:
Get FP reference.
l_fp = cl_fp=>get_reference( ).
try.
Create PDF Object.
l_pdfobj = l_fp->create_pdf_object( connection = 'ADS' ).
Set document.
l_pdfobj->set_document( pdfdata = lv_pdf ).
Set task to get attachments.
l_pdfobj->set_task_getattachments( ).
Execute, call ADS.
l_pdfobj->execute( ).
Get result.
l_attachments = l_pdfobj->get_attachments( ).
CATCH cx_fp_runtime_system INTO exc.
xslt_message = exc->get_text( ).
ENDTRY.
option 2: in wdomodify method
DATA l_ifba TYPE REF TO cl_wd_interactive_form.
l_ifba ?= view->get_element( 'IF_001' ).
DATA l_form_method_handler TYPE REF TO IF_WD_IACTIVE_FORM_METHOD_HNDL.
l_form_method_handler ?= l_ifba->_method_handler.
DATA l_attachments TYPE tfpattachments.
l_attachments = l_form_method_handler->get_attachments( ).
Both options are not getting the attachments.
Our SAP Netweaver version is 7 and ehp 4, ADS configured.
If i save the pdf with attachments locally and then use the UI upload and read the attachments it works. But not when the interactive form is online and when i add attachments to it and click submit(where submit code is the option 1 code), it is not finding any attachments. I wonder whether pdfsource context stores the attachments or not.
When i check the note, SAP say that attachments are supported from ehp2.
What is that i am missing? Any direction would be good.
In worst case i will do webdynpro screens for attachments maintenance, wanted to check with all experts before taking this option.
Please someone answer.
Thanks
Anu

>When i check the note, SAP say that attachments are supported from ehp2.
That is correct. Attachments are supported as of NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 2.
>Our SAP Netweaver version is 7 and ehp 4, ADS configured.
Not possible. NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 4 doesn't even exist yet. In fact 7.0 Enhancement Package 2 won't start ramp-up until December 20th. I think you are confusing your ERP Enhancement Package level with your NetWeaver Enhancement Package level. I'm guessing that it is much more likely that you are on ERP 6.0 Enhancement Package 4. This level of ERP actually runs on NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 1.

Webdynpro + Adobe Interactive Form + Web Service

Hello Experts,
Can you please provide me the useful solutions for the below mentioned issues.
I created a Webdynpro with one view .Kept the adobe interactive form on the view by binding the structure with all my fields to the data source. And one webservice is linked to this form by keeping one submit button on the form. Iam sending the entire data filled on the form to the webservice as importing structure which is binded to the DATA SOURCE of the View in the Webdynpro. Now my questions are,
1.Among these fields,i have a list box (can select multiple values from the list). Iam pasing the values to this list box from the Webdynpro with out changing the TYPE of field in the structure. But all the selected values of list box should be available in the web service. how is it possile?. The importing structure contains the TYPE of that field as a data element and not a TABLE TYPE.
2. How to make the borders of the field in red color in run time. (like it comes for mandatory fields initially).
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ram.

Hi,
But now, my doubt is "How to know the list of values selected in the list box to concatenate using scripting in th Adobe form it self? "
For list box which is multiselect, when you say this.rawValue you get a arraylist, i believe separated by "\n" which mean newline on the form and separated by # when it reaches to SAP.
And also, regarding border color. The suggested logic is not changing the color of the border of the field. Instead it is giving additional border in specified color. But, Is it not possible to change the actual border color instead of adding additional borders with other color
You feel like aditional border because the field is an input type which has emboss effect to look, you can change the appearance of the file from palletes/windos>object>field-->appearance dropdown, just say it to none and alter the type field in Value tab from user entered optional to readonly you will see the difference.
Let me know if this suffice you.
Cheers,
Sai

Abap Webdynpro & Adobe Interactive Forms : Refresh Context

We created a Abap Webdynpro program to fill an Adobe interactive form. When we read the first time the data the form context is filled and displayed. When we read other data then the form is not refreshed. This is only the case when the form is enabled as interactive.
When we use 2 views then everyting is ok. But we want to place the form in an Embedded View, then we have the same problem. Is this a know problem ?

Hi,
We faced a similar Issue. We could get past it by chaging the view property to "When Visible" for both the embedded view & Main view.
Try & letme know if it works. We are trying to solve some other issues aroind this right now. Only the checkboxes dont get populated the second time we go to the view having Adobe form. Rest all data on form is refreshed. But not the Check Boxes.
thanks,
Phani

Testing WebDynpro Adobe Interactive forms Using eCATT or any other testing

Hi All,
We are testing WebDynpro Adobe forms (Java). is there any methodology to test Interactive forms not normal webdynpro applications. Especially Interactive form with UI fields like dropdwons, datepickers dropdown values are from BAPI/RFC's in these forms we will perfom actions like send data to backend and display PO created in onther view.
once we repaly the test script all the drop down values are not updated this test scenario we tested with LR.
Is there any procedure to test this scenario using eCATT or any other testing Tool.

Hi Vara,
You can develop Interactive forms using WD ABAP also.
[E Learning- Interactive Forms using WD ABAP|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/media/uuid/c766e918-0b01-0010-99b1-c2b78cd059b3]
WD Java is useful in case, when your ABAP system is less than ECC 6.0. Otherwise you can achieve same functionalities in WD ABAP also.
Hope this will help you.

WEBDYNPRO ADOBE INTERACTIVE FORMS INTERNAL TABLE BINDING

Hello Firends,
I have created one table in the WebDynpro Program with Context NODE_RESULT having Cardinality 0...n in the View ADOBE_VIEW. In this view I have created the Interactive Form and specified the properties: data source as NODE_RESULT, Template Source as Z_XX_ADOBE_FORM.
Also I have made an supply function for the context NODE_RESULT as GET_RESULT.
In the Supply Function I have used the BAPI to fill the contents of Internal table (itab_data). And have binded the itab_data using node->bind_elements... (ALSO Tried node->bind_table...).
Also I have coded the HANDLE_IN method.
Here the point is that I can see the table in the interactive form layout and have successfuly binded all the elements and when I have tested the form, the Adobe form is showing the blank table. i.e. it is showing up only the design of table, not the internal table values what I have binded.
I have made every check like ADS is working fine as I can run the Interactive form through the ABAP program (i.e. through se38, where the form is allowing me to save the data in the PDF).
Have installed the ACF.
Also checked that the form is XML based schema and it Generated.
Here everything is fine but I am unable to bind the internal table from webdynpro to Adobe Interative form.
Friends plz help me in resolving this issue.
Thanking You
Regards
Pradeep Goli

Hi Vaibhav,
Sorry for replying late.. I have done debugging on the node and found values are being populated to the internal table which i have created, and also as you said i have dragged the node and found the table icon is appearing and in form object pallette of that table the poperty of binding is "....[*]" is also creating but the vvalues are not being reflected to the PDF output.
Also i have tried many approaches like first creating the form and then creating the webdynpro program and by linking the form to the wendunprro. But the result is same i.e. no values are being found in output.
But i have a doubt that what are the system requirements to get this binding done properly. i.e. I am using Netweaver 2004 with SPS release 7 and Adobe 8 and ACF is being installed in the system. And also I can see the values if I am using the structure but the problem is with table. And I can work with the ABAP ADOBE where if I am coding using se38 and executing the values are excellently displaying in the PDF output(Similar case with interactive forms) Also ADS is properly configured.
Is it compulsary to have SPS GREATER than 8 for NETWEAVER 2004.
Please kindly help me in this regard. Thanking you at the earliest.

Saving Adobe Interactive Form into a Server Path in Webdynpro.

Hi Forum,
                 I have an Adobe Interactive Form as UI element in my webdynpro View. This form is available in the context attribute in Binary Format. I can read the form from this attribute as Byte Array only. I want to save this file in to a folder located in the Portal Server (ex : path :
usr\jc00\j2ee\........\temp\myfolder).
              I am trying with the following code :

How to use Adobe Interactive forms with ISR frame work in Webdynpro forJava

Hi,
Anybody worked on Adobe Interactive forms with ISR frame work in Webdynpro for Java in ESS/MSS development.
We have already searched in ISR_Cookbook_2004, however we didn't anything related webdynpro for java in that.
Any information regarding this will be of great help.
Regards
Satish Kumar

There are a number of issues here. A form that you created with LiveCycle Designer (XFA) cannot be used with FormsCentral. An Acroform, the kind you can create with Acrobat, can be used with FormsCentral, with certain limitations, one of which is skip logic. A dynamic XFA form allows for this type of thing, but as mentioned, they don't work with FormsCentral. You can set up an Acroform to show/hide or activate/inactivate fields based on selections or entries made in other fields, but you'd have to set this up in Acrobat, not FormsCentral. So you can set up something roughly equivalent to a web form's skip logic, but you'd have to learn how to do this in Acrobat using JavaScript. There is a separate Acrobat JavaScript forum here if you have any questions.

Adobe Interactive forms - ABAP Webdynpro or JAVA Webdynpro?

Hi,
I am an ABAPER and I got few requirements for Adobe Interactive forms Offline Scenario/Online scenarios & ALV reports.
I have practiced a session ( How Tou2026execute an RFC model with inputs from Interactive Formswith RFC Module ) -JAVA webdynpro where it interacts with SAP via BAPI.
Now my question is I am bent more towards ABAP.. I want to do this in ABAP but unfortunately I haven't found any similar material for ABAP webdynrpo.Could anyone pls suggest me !
FYI.. We are also developing some ALV Webdynpro reports and I am using PURE ABAP which i like it.
So the other reason is we don't want install NWDI and complicate this structure as we don't have ESS/MSS requirment here. Just we need some forms/reports on portal.
Any suggestions and links which can help me here?

WebDynpro with Adobe Interactive Forms

Hello Experts,
We use Java Webdynpro with Adobe Interactive forms. We have 2 local development components. In the first development component we create a PDF and mail that PDF to client. De mode we used for PDF creation in 'UpdateDataInPdf'.
The client fills out the PDF and send it back to office by mail.
The second development components reads the mailbox and displays the PDF. The mode for this PDF display is 'UsePDF'. We use a PDF utility to transfer the data from PDF to the context. We can change the data in the PDF but is not reflected in the context. How can I fix this.
