Create Spool From OTF Data

Hi all,
Is there any way of creating a spool request or printing OTF data directly from an internal table.
Scenario is that I have read a spool request with multiple pages into OTF format and now have an internal table with OTF data. I have then split the spool data at page level into another internal table.
This table also contains OTF data . Is there anyway of printing this internal table directly to printer. If not is there any way of creating a spool request from this internal table?

Archive Smartform Copies - Error - OTF end command // missing in OTF data

Hi All,
We are printng invoices and archiving them at the same time.
When I try to print and archive just the original invoice it works fine
That is , it prints and archives.
However when I set the flag SSFCOMPOP-TDARCCOP to 'X' (Archive Copies as well),
I get the error OTF end command // missing in OTF data.
Im guessing that the system tries to archive multiple copies and the End of File Command // at the end of each copy is causing the issue. But I dont know how to go about solving it.

Get OTF data for a sales order document

I have a problem in getting the information of the created sales order document number as OTF data. I need this OTF data so to convert into PDF format using function module 'CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF'. My situation is i am keeping a parameter for sales order document number . when i execute the report after giving a sales order document number, i should get the OTF data .

Hi!
Firstly you have to define what technique is used for creation of sales order as printed document - smartform or sapscript. Then proceed as follows.
In case of smartform:
CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
EXPORTING
formname = 'ZFORMNAME'
IMPORTING
fm_name = v_form_name
EXCEPTIONS
no_form = 1
no_function_module = 2
OTHERS = 3.

w_ctrlop-no_dialog = 'X'.
w_compop-tdnoprev = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION v_form_name
EXPORTING
control_parameters = w_ctrlop
output_options = w_compop
user_settings = 'X'
IMPORTING
job_output_info = w_return
EXCEPTIONS
formatting_error = 1
internal_error = 2
send_error = 3
user_canceled = 4
OTHERS = 5.
i_otf[] = w_return-otfdata[].
In case of sapscript:
options-tdgetotf = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
EXPORTING
options = options
CALL FUNCTION 'CLOSE_FORM'
IMPORTING
RESULT                         =

   EXCEPTIONS

     send_error                     = 3
     spool_error                    = 4

Getting OTF data of an SAPscript

Hello Experts,
        Right now, I am receiving the OTF data from the combination of the Function Modules 'OPEN_FORM' and 'CLOSE_FORM' and the mail is already being sent by these function modules and the document is being archived. The transmission medium is External Send i.e. 5. However my new requirement is the subject line of the mail should be as high as 255 chars. So now I wish to restrict the use of OPEN_FORM and CLOSE_FORM only for archiving and Print Preview and send the mail using CL_BCS, which allows me the subject length of 255 chars.
         I want to retrieve the OTF data. I know we can do that by setting the parameter itcpo-tdgetotf and get the OTF table at CLOSE_FORM. However, I have noticed that when I set the tdgetotf parameter, the archiving is not taking place, which again will be an issue. Is there some other way of retrieving OTF data. I cam acroos function modules such as CONVERT_OTF and CONVERT_OTF_MEMORY. But no use.
        So in short, I just want to get the OTF data. Other all things are working for me now, and from what I have found out, I cannot use TDGETOTF and archiving in the same OPEN_FORM.
        Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Shaheen

Hi ssm,
   the problem has been rectified. thanks for your inputs. i remodelled my programming. i set the tdgetotf and got the otf table from there. and used CONVERT_OTF_AND_ARCHIVE for archiving. it works great.
thanks again all...
Emanuel, are you interested to know how am I doing it or you were asking it to answer my question? let me know, in case if you want to, i will share my 2 cents of knowledge.

How to receive OTF data out of spool request?

Hi Guys,
I want to write a program which reads out the OTF data of a spool request and then I want to send it either as eMail or as FAX to some receivers.
The function modules I found so far (CONVERT_OTF, CONVERT_OTF_AND_FAX etc.) assume that the OTF table is already filled. But what I have in the beginning is only the spool ID. Even the function RSPO_DISPLAY_SPOOLJOB doesn't pass back the OTF data. What I saw in this function is that the OTF data is read directly via C-CAll => Call 'C_RSTS_OPEN' and Call 'C_RSTS_READ'.
Does anyone of you have an idea how to solve my problem or could give me a hint?
Thanks,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
As you said, the OTF is stored as is in the spool file, and you can read it using the C calls, or use RSPO_RETURN_SPOOLJOB function module for example.
Note that using SP01, you can send a spool via a menu entry, which corresponds to function module RSPO_SPOOLJOB_TO_OFFICE.
Best regards
Sandra

How can I select a radio button in a table regarding the data in the cells?

Hi everyone
This is the issue: I need to select the RadioButton which is in a table with data related to transfers in the cells next to it, so I need to select the correct radio regarding the data next to it.
This is the whole process: First I go to the Add Recurring Transfer section and select the parameters of the transfer (Accounts, date, amount, months etc), then with VB code I capture those parameters from the page and store them into Global variables for further usage on my E-tester script.
Right after that I need to select the radiobutton regarding the data of the transfer that I already created in order to delete it or modify it (Please see Attachment selectradio1.jpg)
So How can I move along the table and compare each cell with the variables that I created with the transfer information, so when I finish comparing a row cell by cell and if all the comparison match well in that row, I could select the radiobutton of the row.
Note: Second Attachment selectradio2.jpg shows the source code of the table...If you need more info please let me know
Could you please help me with this problem?? I'm Kind of frustrated with this issue jejeje

Here is an example. I uploaded mock html so that you can actually try this code. I think this does exactly what you are asking.
Private Sub RSWVBAPage_afterPlay()
Dim tbl As HTMLTable
Dim tblRow As HTMLTableRow
Dim tblCell As HTMLTableCell
Dim strValue As String
Dim rButton As HTMLInputElement
' ******** This would be your global variable. I put this so that values are seperated by a semicolin you can use what ever format works for you.
strValue = "03/22/2008;03/22/2008;*************1977;*************1977;$25.25;Jan, Jun, Jul, Dec"
' Strip out the ; for inner text comparison
strValue = Replace(strValue, ";", "")
' This will get the table but can be modifoed to be more specific
Set tbl = RSWApp.om.FindElement(, "TABLE")
' This loops through all the rows in the table until a match to the strValue is found
' then clicks the radio button. Findelements allows you to specify a root element
' once the correct root row is found, FindElemets can get the correct radio button
For Each tblRow In tbl.rows
  If tblRow.innerText = strValue Then
    Set rButton = RSWApp.om.FindElement("account", "INPUT", "NAME", , , tblRow)
     rButton.click
   End If
Next
End Sub
I also uploaded the script I created. You should be able to run it and see how it works.
This should get you going.

Query regarding the data type for fetcing records from multiple ODS tables

hey guys;
i have a query regarding the data type for fetcing records from multiple ODS tables.
if i have 2 table with a same column name then in the datatype under parent row node i cant add 2 nodes with the same name.
can any one help with some suggestion.

Hi Mudit,
One option would be to go as mentioned by Padamja , prefxing the table name to the column name or another would be to use the AS keyoword in your SQL statement.
AS is used to rename the column name when data is being selected from your DB.
So, the query Select ename as empname from emptable will return the data with column name as empname.

Regarding baseline date

i want to show the base line date is unchangeble.how can i do that , for the base line date where can i supress.one of our friends told me regarding baseline date, you can supress by selecting FSG, or validations and parameter ID.
but i have tried the above scenarios , it is not showing any field in account groups,postingkeys and field status groups. and in the validations also it is not showing any baseline date. and in the parameter id it is not showing any parameter id for the baselind date.if i supress user cannot change that date.
please help me

Reddy,
Follow the menu path for validation
Spro-FA-GLA-Business Transactions-General Ledger posing-make check and document settings-validation for accounting documents.
In this you can select line items and in prerequisite step you can select Baseline Date, which is in almost down in the column, give the baseline date table and give the condition as you require. Make active callup point.
i hope it will work.
If it is useful award points.

Question regarding Polling data from database using DB Adapters in BPEL

Hi,
I have the following question regarding Polling data from database using DB Adapters in BPEL -
If I am selecting data from multiple tables/view to ultimately generate hierarchical xml document, is there a way that I specify polling all of these tables/views. Is polling limited only to one table/view?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
your question seems to have been answered for the question of polling a set of tables with one as the root, and getting back a hierarchical xml representing multiple related tables.
However you can also poll for changes to both the root table and its related tables. Not sure if this was your question or the one already answered. If the former please check out the sample

Regarding Posting Date in IDOC for Intercompany Invoice

Hi,
We have priority issue regarding posting date in IDOC. When we create Intercompany invoice, billing date in intercompany is Actual GI date of delivery document and also Invoice posted with Actual GI date only. But, in IDOC, Posting date is appearing as Planned GI date of delivery document.
Actual GI date and Billing date and Posting date in IDOC should be same., but, posting date in IDOC is appearing as Planned GI date of delivery doc.
Kindly help in finding out the root cause of, why posting date in IDOC is not appearing as Billing date and appearing as Planned GI date of Delivery document. This issue is happening from past one month for Intercompany invoice, previously posting date in IDOC used to appear as Billing date only.
Thanks & Regards,
Jai Prabhu.

Hi Jai,
Are you using standard message type INVOIC ?
If so check SEGMENT E1EDK02 for date field
and also check if there is no code put to overwrite the date
you can check the code in Function module "IDOC_OUTPUT_INVOIC"
thanks
