what is the difference between BODYPAGE AND A MASTERPAGE?

Hi,
Body page and Master page in Adobe form can be co related to Master and Normal slides in Microsoft powerpoint.
A body page is the area where you keep all your dynamic fields normally which you want to be available on one place in the layout. For example: some Tables, Name, Address, Submit button etc.
A Master page is the area, where you place those fields, which you want to to be available on each subsequent pages. Like: Header & Footer, company logo etc. You also place content area on Master page only. A content area is a place holder which defines the space available on all body pages.
It entirely depends upon the developer to decide which field he/she wants to put on body or master page. But thumb rule is: Fields which is required to be repetative on every pages should be kept on Master page. All dynamic and such fields which should be available on just one place should be kept on Body page.
There can be multiple Master page as well, and you can switch between multiple Master pages depending upon your condition.
For further details: Try creating your own form in SFP with Body and Master pages and try putting few fields on both the pages according to your requirement. You will see all contents on Master page automatically gets reflected on the Body page as well. I am sure once you create a simple form with Master and Body page, things will be become more clear.
Also, you can look for HELP in ADLC for more information.

Queries Related to Adobe Form

Hi Friends,
I have some queries related to Adobe Form. Our client is willing to replicate purchase order and shopping cart scenarios from SRM to Adobe Form.
But I am not sure whether we can achieve the functionalities or not. Our client requires to know the below answers.
1. He wants to know whether any sub screen can be developed in ADOBE form or not. For example, in PO, each line item has an account determination which has multiple entries (for example each and every line item will have more than 1 account assignments). In SRM the account assignment is entered in a second (sub) screen to enter multiple values. Whether this can be done in ADOBE form or not?.
2. He wants to know whether the search help can be provided as same as ECC/SRM in ADOBE form or not. For example, when we select the vendor he does not want to bring the list of all the vendors from LFA1 table. He wants to restrict based on come condition such as company code and user should able to key in the company code to filter the vendors associated with that company code. How this can be done in ADOBE form.
3. He wants to know, what is the best approach to develop either ADOBE form or portal page. Which one is feasible to develop cost effective and time consuming. Also he wants to know the performance impact of both approaches. Finally he wants to know the merits and demerits for both approaches (ADOBE Form and portal web page development).
Friends it would be a great help to me if you can send me the answers for the following.
Thanks in Advance.

What is the relation between adobe forms and web dynpro

hi
what is the relation between adobe forms and web dynpro

Hi Jyothsna,
Adobe forms are advanced to smartforms and scripts.
Adobe forms are much easier than smartforms they are online forms.
they can be developed online.
Adobe forms : This is another SAP tool designed to create your own forms. The transaction for this is SFP.
How to use them: You can create a sales order form in adobe form and send to the sales reps. Sales reps can fill this form when they are not connected to internet / SAP system. Once they connect to SAP just send an e-mail to a specific user id in outlook. You got to customize and code how do you want to process once you receive this form. This enables you to create orders even when you are not connected to the system. Hence no data loss. This is not how i used though :-). This is just my idea.
What is the difference between Adobe forms and smart forms / scripts.
Smart forms / scripts are used to show the data in SAP. Most likely you will use these to print / display some kind of reciepts / forms. Many companies must be using this for hard copies / ALE / EDI or to transfer data from SAP to others.
Adobe forms are used to post data into SAP from SAP too. So this has an additional feature compared to smartforms.

How to display line items corresponding to Header adobe form

Hi ,
As I am new to Adobe Form, So struggling with below problem related with Adobe Form.
For example, I have data in an internal table :
Stage      item
100         A
100         B
100         C
200         D
200         E
Here you have for field 'Stage' value '100' , I have 3 line items, for value '200' , it is 2 line items and so on.
My requirement is , I have to show Stage field at top and corresponding line items should be displayed in table.
Stage: 100
item
A
B
C
Stage: 200
D
E
I have used Nested table concept to achieve it but didn't get expected output.
Please help me out.

Hi,
     If all of your line items are getting displayed in different pages, to my knowledge, there may be two possibilities.
1) May be the size of the main window can accomodate only one line item. If one item data fills up the window, then there wont' be any space for the next line item data to be accomodated in the same window in the same page, so, the system triggers the next page. Like-wise for each item data. If this is the case, increase the height of the main window to display items in same page.
2) Check the driver program. Find the Write_form block, which is written inside an item loop. May be there is a Form-control Function module( Control_form with parameter 'NEW-PAGE' ) being called after the write_fom block, within the loop. If this is the case, remove the control_form FM section to make the data display in same page.

Workflow trggering using adobe form...

Hello interactive form gurus,
I need some help related to adobe forms. We have a requirement when user fills up adobe form specially designed for material master. When he submits it a workflow needs to get trigerred. My questions are as follows:
1) Is it possible to trigger workflow by adobe form submission ?
2) Can we fill the adobe form offline and still trigger the workflow in SAP ?
Regards,
Rajesh.

Hi Rajesh,
From the broadness of your question this is definitely possible. In short a workflow can be triggered everytime an event is raised.
You are just looking at plug points when you can raise this event:
1. When the form is submitted online
2. When the form is stored
Maybe if you can provide more details the answer could be more specific.

How to use SAP Business Workflow along with Interactive Adobe Form

Hi Experts,
I am working on SAP Business Workflow since last couple of years.
Now i have got a new Project where client wants to use SAP Business Workflow along with Interactive Adobe Form.
I am new to Interactive Adobe Form and Portal thing and i really dont know from where to start.
We have one central system and 2 local systems. when we do create a Material document using adobe form workflow should trigger and notification should go to group of users who can approve or reject it, once they approve it document gets created in central system and replicated to 2 local system through ALE.
In the Local system they do extend the document to different plants, again workflow triggers and notification will go to Managers inbox for the approval.
Once the final approval done data should go and store in SAP.
Now here i have couple of Questions.
1. In SAP R3 Business workflow when i execute the workitem from the inbox i do get the application screen ( i.e. MM01 MRP View ) , what is going to happen if the same case i have with Adobe form?? is it possible or do we have to design a adobe form and we will have to map the fields with backend application??
2. Do i have to maintained 3 separate Org Structure for 3 different system or using UWL i can manage the show
3. Untill final submit is not done, where the application data is going to be, is there any kind of buffer that we will have to keep it or its there with XML file??
Please help me out.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Manoj

Hi Manoj,
Welcome to ADOBE Forms related Workflow Development. Well, here are my answers.
1) You can go for either go for ISR based development or WD development with Adobe form. In both the cases you can achieve your requirement. Yes, you will have to design the Adobe form and bind the fields to backend.
2) Am not clear or your System landscape to advice you in these regards.
3) Until final Submit/Approval is done, the data can be stored in WORKFLOW CONTAINERS or XML FORM(If you go for ISR based Development).
Hope this helps.

Raja Sekhar

Adobe forms with file attachments

Hello,
I want to use file attachments in my offline adobe forms. I have found some articles about how to do that but it was all related to webdynpro which i'm not using for this scenario.
Does anyone know how to do that in plain ABAP?
Many thanks in advance for your help!
Best Regards,
Tijana

I'll answer on my own question
I found the answer in the test program FP_PDF_TEST_16.

Multiple images into a subform in a dynamic non-interactive adobe form

I want to convert a set of images into a PDF (one page for each image) with Webdynpro. I'm trying with a non-interactive adobe form.
I followed the tutorial "Dynamic Non-Interactive PDF Form".
I've got a multiple Context node: 'Images' with a string attribute 'url' for each image.
In the form, I've created subform1, and subform2 within. I put an image field into subform2, setting its url to: $record.Images[*].url
and its script to: this.value.image.href = xfa.resolveNode(this.value.image.href).value;
It doesn't work.
If I add a field into subform2 binding it to url attribute, I can see some lines with the correct path for each image, but the image isn't displayed.
It works with a single dynamic image in the page. What am I doing wrong?
Regards
Anibal Pozo.

No. It's form scripting. In any case I'm working with Webdynpro Java.
I tried this code in table 'initialize' event.
for int=0 upto $record.nImages do
Table1.Row1[int].ImageField.value.image.href = $record.Images[int].url;
Table1.Row1[int].Cell4.value.#image.href = $record.Images[int].url;
endfor
Cell4 is a static image.
In 04SP9, it show always the same image in the image field (first column), and alternating image in cell4 (second column).
In 04sSP6, it shows always the same image in all the rows in both columns.
Any idea? I didn't find any OSS related.

How do I get to have more than 20 columns in a table in adobe form?

I see that there is limitaion to not have more than 20 columns in my table in adobe form, Is there any way I can have more than 20 columns in a table in adobe form in landscape mode.

Hi,
That only relates to the Table Wizard. Once the table is placed on the page, you can add columns manually, from the menu or right-clicking on a column.
You can also use fields within a repeating subform (instead of the table object).
Good luck,
Niall

Adobe forms:Data view palette not showing any fields present in the context

Hi Experts,
I am trying to create a static adobe form by following a step-by-step tutorial.The steps I have followed are:
1. Created an Interface with just one field in the Import parameters (apart from the default one).
2. Created a form by using that interface and included that field in the context .
3. Activated the form and wennt to the layout of the form.
4. I should be seeing that field added and activated in the context in the form but its not there.
What could possibly be the reason for it.Please guide me.
Thanks and Regards
Abhishek

Hi,
I am working on Adobe Form when I open it in change mode I am unable to see the below options in it.
Always I could see only the preview of pdf output. I tried for the option in Palette by right click on the pdf form->Right Click->Palette but it has options Border,Accessibility etc but no option is related to DataView or Hierarchy palettes.
I am looking for Dataview and Hierarchy Palettes to be displayed on the left side of the form.
Please share if any ideas.

Rafi
