Screen Painter and FMS

Hi all,
I have developed a form with Screen Painter. In a field I attached an FMS. Although the FMS works perfect when I choose the value it is not paste in the specific field.
Any Idea,
Thanks in advance,
Vangelis

Hi Vangelis,
If there is I don't know about it, but I also never tried it.
Is some cases I've emulated the CFL behavior with the following steps.
1. Catch the Validate event ;
2. If the Key Pressed to exit the field is the TAB key, open a form - lets call it CFLForm - with the possible values;
3. Catch the double-click event or the "Select" button pressed event
4. Write the value if the base form's field and close the CFLForm form.

Screen Painter and SDK

Hi,
I've developed a form in the screen painter. I want to add the business logic from SDK. Is it possible...it should be right?
I have a very complex form with around 20-25 edit boxes and one grid. The issues
I have designed the form in the screen painter and am trying to access the edit boxes from SDK. the code snippets is like
oForm = SBO_Application.Forms.GetFormByTypeAndCount("60004", 0)
When i try to access it says form not found. sbo_appl.forms.activeform worked, but when i used
oEdit = oForm.Items.Item("9").Specific
in the next line, it says 9 is not a valid feild.

Yes - this is what SP is about. You design your screen
from SP and save it as an XML file. At this point you
load it in B1 from your addon using the LoadBatchAction.
You just need to change the FormID before loading it, this
is an easy task: if you want some sample you can see the
samples here in SDN or check the code of B1DE here on SDN
too.
Once it is loaded you can use all the UI SDK methods and
properties to handle events and items in this form.

Difference between screen painter and module pool

Hi guys,
what's the difference between SCREEN PAINTER and MODULE POOL ....
can anyone plz give brief description ...
regards
venu

hi ,
As its said by many colleagues in SDN , there are not very major differences between Modulepools and screen painter .
The few differences are :
1) Module pool is nothing but a pool ( series ) of screens . and Screen painter ( SE51 ) is a tool used for creating/designing screens .
2) While creating a modulepool you even need to create a transaction and assign this module pool program else the mpool program doesnt work . I think this is place we can say they are different .
3) If at all you create a screen in screen painter ( SE51 ) , that doesnot function by its own , you need to assign it to any of the executable programs or modulepool programs .Here is again a difference .

Ranjita ..

Screen Painter and Matrix

In screen painter I am unable to attach the folder with the respective matrix. Please give the complete method to attach the above mentioned.

Hi Manish,
I am not too sure what you want to know, but if you want a matrix to be displayed only on a specific folder you should do the following. I am going to show you the code, but you can do parts of it in screenpainter as well. In screen painter you cannot display it like you would at runtime.
On your matrix you would set the PaneFrom and PaneTo properties. To only set it visible on the first folder:
        Dim oItem As SAPbouiCOM.Item
        Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form
        oForm = oApplication.Forms.ActiveForm
        oItem = oForm.Items.Item("My_Matrix")
        oItem.FromPane = 1
        oItem.ToPane = 1
To add the folder you'll have to remember to set the ValOn and ValOff properties:
        Dim oFolder As SAPbouiCOM.Folder
        oFolder = oForm.Items.Item("My_Folder").Specific
        oFolder.Caption = "MyFolder"
        oFolder.DataBind.SetBound(True, "", "UDS_1")
        oFolder.ValOff = 0
        oFolder.ValOn = 1
To invoke the folder's click event you have to code it manually:
Private Sub SBO_Application_ItemEvent(ByVal FormUID As String, ByRef pVal As SAPbouiCOM.ItemEvent, ByRef BubbleEvent As Boolean) Handles oApplication.ItemEvent
        If pVal.FormTypeEx = "My_Form" Then
            If pVal.BeforeAction = True Then
                If pVal.ItemUID = "My_Folder" Then
                    If pVal.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_ITEM_PRESSED Then
                        Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form
                        oForm = oApplication.Forms.ActiveForm
                        oForm.PaneLevel = 1
                    End If
                End If
            End If
        End If
    End Sub
Hope it helps,

Screen Painter and RFC connection issue

Hello,
I get the following error when I try to start screen painter:
EU_SCRP_WN32 : timeout during allocate / CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPCMRCV'
I have installed all sapgui components and when I test the rfc connection it
starts the program but then sends the same error.
I think it's got something to do with the fact that I'm trying to start this
program through a saprouter because when I start it locally (within my LAN)
the program starts without problems.
I have already applied latest kernel patch.
Could you suggest what could I do to complete my RFC connection? Should I
put something under gateway host or gateway service?
Thanks in advance

The issue here is that I don't know how to establish de gateway option
considering I'm using saprouter to connect to sap system.
Well... If you are asking how to "enable" gateway option then...
You go to SM59 > Open EU_SCRP_WN32 > Go to "Technical Setting" tab
Click on change option.
Put the Gateway host IP address or Host name (SAP Server) > Save
Check the connection by "Connection Test" option.
If any error... pls post here.

Screen Painter and existing forms

Hi all,
Is it possible to save one of the existing forms, for example, the item master form to an xml file that can be manipulated in the screen painter? If it is possible, how would I do it?
TIA,
Steve

Hey Ram,
You will have to handle the click on the choose from list button (not sure of the item ID, use the debug information and mouse over to find it). You will also have to handle the key down tab event (CHAR = 9) and open your form as well.
To stop business one from handling these events you will have to do it on the before and set bubblevent = false

Screen Painter and pf status

hi experts...
I want to create my own screen for my program...please guide me how to create and what is pf status and its use...

Hi Sugumar
For creating your own screen.. Just follow the under mentioned steps
Just write
CALL SCREEN XXX ( in SE38 Editor)
then double click on the XXX ( screen number which you have specified )
It'll take you to the next screen where you you will see the following set of statements
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE STATUS_0100.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100.
YOu just have to de comment the above mentioned statements.
Then double click on
MODULE STATUS_0100
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100 respectively.
It will generate a code in se38 editor like this
MODULE STATUS_0100 OUTPUT.
SET PF-STATUS 'xxxxxxxx'.
SET TITLEBAR 'xxx'.
ENDMODULE. " STATUS_0100 OUTPUT
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100 INPUT.
ENDMODULE. " USER_COMMAND_0100 INPUT
Then you just have to punch in the logic as desired.
Regarding * SET PF-STATUS 'xxxxxxxx'
The purpose of this statemnt is to provide icons/ functions on application toolbar and menu toolbar at the o/p screen.
This is how we do it :
just provide a name to XXXX by decommenting it
for example SET PF-STATUS 'ZITP_GV_ALV_GRID'.
Then double click on "'ZITP_GV_ALV_GRID'"
it will take you to the next screen.
On that screen you just ahve to provide the
icons / functions which you want on your application and menu toolbar respectively..
so that you can use them while you are seeing the O/P of your program.
one eg :
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100 INPUT.
IF SY-UCOMM = 'EXIT'.
LEAVE PROGRAM.
ENDIF.
ENDMODULE.
This exit button is there on menu toolbar
SO when you will press exit on the menu toolbar ( ^^^ the code wil be executed and it'll take you bac to se38 editor)
I hope this information helps !!

Gaurav

Screen painter, ChooseFromList and et_EDIT

Hi,
I'm in Screen Painter and I did set a it_EDIT with a ChooseFromList Business Partner.
When I hit PREVIEW, it works fine, the list of Business Partners appear and I choose one but the choosen one do not go in the et_EDIT textbox.
I don't understand the Aliases because the help do not let me understand what it is and there's no way to see by a demo or anything else so I can understand clearly.
First is this all possible just by the Screen Painter or I do need to code something else ? Any video tutorials ? Anything could help understand how to make it work.
I beg anyone to give me a working solution.
Thank you
Edited by: Marc Roussel on Dec 20, 2010 3:16 PM

Just a mall thing. Everything seems to work except that when I did choose the BP, a message pop saying :
"Item - Can't set value on item because the item can't get focus. [66000-153]"
However once I clicked OK of that message, I see my choosen BP in my EditText and everything is fine so I don't understand why I receive this message. Here's the code I use
if (pVal.EventType != SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_ACTIVATE && pVal.EventType != SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_LOAD)
    if (pVal.EventType == SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_CHOOSE_FROM_LIST)
        SAPbouiCOM.IChooseFromListEvent oCFLEvento = null;
        oCFLEvento = ((SAPbouiCOM.IChooseFromListEvent)(pVal));
        string sCFL_ID = null;
        sCFL_ID = oCFLEvento.ChooseFromListUID;
        SAPbouiCOM.Form oForm = null;
        oForm = SBO_Application.Forms.Item(FormUID);
        SAPbouiCOM.ChooseFromList oCFL = null;
        oCFL = oForm.ChooseFromLists.Item(sCFL_ID);
        if (oCFLEvento.BeforeAction == false)
            SAPbouiCOM.DataTable oDataTable = null;
            oDataTable = oCFLEvento.SelectedObjects;
            string val = System.Convert.ToString(oDataTable.GetValue(0, 0));
            if ((pVal.ItemUID == "it_BPCode") && pVal.ActionSuccess)
                ((SAPbouiCOM.EditText)oForm.Items.Item("it_BPCode").Specific).Value = val;

Regarding the flow logic in screen painter

Hi Experts
I am a BW guy and i am new to ABAP and i need your help to solve my problem.
I have created a table for master data(zemp_data) in R/3 se11..which has fields like zempid,zempname,zmgrid,zdeptid,zdeptname and i have created the respective fields in screen painter too but my problem is i dont know how to link this fields in the screen painter to the fields in table .to be more clear i want the flow logic or module pool code to link this table when i give an entry in the screen painter for the respective fields..i will really appreciate your answers and award the maximum points for the usefull answer ..as i dont know ABAP much if it is a step by step approach ..that would be helpfull
Regards,
RK.

Hi Karthik,
Please consider the following
In the screen...the fields must be from the database table in Se11..(in screen painter -> use.."get from Dictionary" -> enter the table name -> select the fields -> drag and drop on the screen) or must have the same name in the database table..This will be a link but unless you code to fetch values from database or update values to database there will be no action taking place
Usually in the PBO(process befor output) we write the code to display values before we accept data from the user ie,set default values on the screen if required and prepare the screen for user input
in the PAI of the screen painter we can do data processing ie, data validations,checks and saving based on what the user wants
So imagine you have buttons placed on the screen and there are buttons from standard application bar like BACK,SAVE, set using PFstatus..all the user actions will be linked to a function cod..ie whenever user presses a button we can uniquely idntify what was pressed by assigning a function code to each button in the menu painter or PF status and do the action accordingly
Assume that you have created a push button on the screen painter and assigned it a function code "PUSH"
so whenever you press the button in the variable sy-ucomm "PUSH" will be captured..this you can check in PAI for the screen like
Case sy-ucomm.
when 'PUSH'.
do the needful coding
when 'SAVE'
Modify database table
endcase.
you can check the standard demo programs in SE38 -> program name-> display for basic ABAP coding you have asked for
(1)demo_dynpro_input_output .
(2)demo_dynpro_dictionary
(3)demo_dynpro_push_button
Pls let us know if you need more help on the same
Reward if helpful

Setting Folder Pane in Screen Painter

Hi All,
I have a question about setting a value of pane - folder's property. When I set this property in Screen Painter and choose form preview form's pane level changes, but when I save this form in xml file and load in my add on I have to add code that changes pane level after clicking on folder. Also SAPbouiCOM doesn't contain such property like Pane. What is this property for? Why it works in SP and doesn't when load from xml? Is this just for Screen Painter?
Regards
Szymon

Form.PaneLevel is a property for form and it changes form panelevel.
I think that comparable property for for Folder.Pane (in Screen Painter) would be val off and val on.
The most important thing for me was to be sure that I have to handle changing of panelevel by myself. I thought that maybe this property wasn't handle by SAP SDK correctly.
Regards
Szymon

    End Sub
i am calling this function getxml in pageload of this form as
Private Sub B1_Application_ItemEvent(ByVal FormUID As String, ByRef pVal As SAPbouiCOM.ItemEvent, ByRef BubbleEvent As Boolean) Handles sbo_application.ItemEvent
        If pVal.FormType = "142" And pVal.BeforeAction = False Then

                    getxml(FormUID)
            End Select
        End If
End Sub
it will create the xml file ChangedXml.xml in the destination folder, then i will copy that one and paste it and change the extension to .srf.
then i will open screen painter and try to acceess this one it will open the form but it will give an error as Error: Menu - Image Type Not Supported
it will open the screen but it won't open the matrix, the space which consists of matrix in the original form will come as blank.
Please any one help me, it's urjent.
Thanks,
Vaithy

Hi Vaithy,
Not all the items you have in B1 forms are supported by the UI API and/or the ScreenPainter.
If you need to reproduce a B1 system form you will have to remove all items giving you an error in the ScreenPainter and then have a reduced form.
Why do you need the xml of the Purchase Order form? Please take care if you are trying to reproduce the behavior of the Purchase Order form, there can be some Formatted Searches or other customizations in the B1 form if you are using other addons.
Hope it helps
Trinidad.
