SFP & Adobe livecyle ES 8.1

We use a designer to design forms with Adobe Livecycle ES 8.1 (supposedly saved to be backward compatible to version 6 or 7),
All done and we have nice looking forms but...   have problem importing/activating the forms (SFP). Importing a form is fine, but when activating it, everything dissapears (hierarchy, body page, master page, pdf preview all empty except xml source).
Anyone experiencing this before? solution?

Hello,
SAP unfortunatelly does not support Livecycle 8.1 yet. Please use 7.1 for designing forms for SAP integration.
Best regards,
Dezso

  • Is it possible to have a field in the form to insert an image, like in Adobe livecyle?

    Should I use Adobe livecyle, does it still exists?

    Hi Timo,
    If I create a new row (A) with a createInsert operation the row is created ok - including the GUI field based on a selectOneChoise.
    When I create the next row (B) with a createInsert operation that row is created ok and row A is moved one step down in the table.
    But - at the same time as row A is moved down the field in row A that is based on a selectOneChoice is blanked (cleared).

    Hello Srini,
    To Migrate Smart Form into Adobe
    Prerequisites
    All graphics that are used in the Smart Form have already been migrated.
    Process:
    Go to the Smart Forms initial screen (transaction SMARTFORMS).
    Choose Utilities --> Migration --> Interactive Form -->Export.
    In the dialog box, enter the name of the Smart Form that you want to migrate, the name of the PDF-based target form, and the target interface. The system suggests the name of the Smart Form as the name for the target form and target interface. You can change these names. The target form and the target interface can have different names.
    Choose Continue.
    The system displays the Settings dialog box where you can flag various options for migration. To activate the selected options and close the dialog box, choose Continue.
    the dialog box Create Object Directory Entry, enter a package for the interface, or save it as a local object.
    Assign the form to a package, or save the form as a local object.
    The system migrates the form.
    If no errors occur during the migration, you can activate the new interface and the PDF-based form. If you see an error message, read Migration with Errors or Warnings below.
    Activating an Interface and PDF-Based Print Form
    If the form was migrated without errors, the system returns a corresponding message. You now have a PDF-based form (consisting of a form and interface) that you can edit. Initially, migrated forms and interfaces are always inactive and therefore have to be activated before a call can be made from the application.
    To activate or edit the form, choose Utilities --> Migration --> Interactive Form --> Edit. The system displays the initial screen of the form builder for PDF-based forms. After you have activated the form, you can "switch runtime" as described below.
    Refer:Migrating Smart Forms
    Pl read the constraints before migrating
    Notes About Migrating Smart Forms
    Hope the above information helps......

  • Printing SFP ADOBE generated pdf from spool.

    I am trying to print ADOBE PDF file to HP Designjet Z5400 plotter.  It successfully writes a pdf file to the spool.  When I either release that spool file to print or have the print job set to print immediately I get a spool error - unable to read format G_RAW l_rc =128.  However I can print the pdf from preview.  It is NOT an issue with the printer printing the pdf file as I can do this.  My issue is that I cannot print directly to the printer via the SAP spooler.  I have entered incident to SAP with specific example of my program that produces the pdf spool file.  I am directed to read notes that imply I have ADS problem which is ridiculous as I have plenty of SFP generated pdf files printing to HP and Canon laser printers.  Again i am trying to print a very large label 2 X2 foot to HP Designjet Z5400 plotter directly via spool.  My task is to direct label to different printers based upon MATNR field.
    I would appreciate response from only people who have printed SPF ADOBE pdf to plotters.
    The pdf that was created file size 5.7 KB.
    SPAD settings
    Device Type  HPGL HPGL  : Bus.Graphics:  HP/GL plotter Device Class Standard printer
    Model        HP Designjet Z5400
    Host Spool Access Method  G G: Frontend print with control technologie

    new component SAPPDFPRINT, interactive forms can be printed on any Windows printer just like all of the other spool requests with the SAPWIN device types.
    Refer to SAP notes:
    1444342 - Device type-independent printing of ADS forms
    968394 - Forms Printing from spool and from Preview PDF differ
    1630403 - Mass printing of Adobe documents

  • SFP Adobe problems

    hi everyone !!
    I'm trying to create a form with the transaction SFP.
    Unfortunately some problems:
    Every time I tried to activate my form, the activation failed ("<i>Action canceled by user</i>" error message displayed) and all the labels of my elements were erased (my guess would be an XML generation problem).
    It would be cool if somebody could help me with it.
    Thanks
    Great day to y'all
    Quentin

    Hi Quentin,
    this is certainly something that should work. I am not aware of any SAP Notes or even messages on your issue. Please create a customer message on component BC-SRV-FP, if your problem persists.

  • Sfp adobe form for production order

    I need to supress printing a field within an adobe form base upon a condition.  I customized print program to allow printing production orderwhen order type is RM01 but I do not want to print the barcode field OPSDATA-RUECK.  I need to know how to supress printing under certain circumstances.
    How do I condition a field to prevent printing?

    Hi Vijay
    the printers first need to be configured by the BASIS consutant who will assign printers to Users based on their Roles and authorizations and i think this is a Config activity and needs to be transported
    also from the menu go to user profile, under own data and under defaults Tab, you need to assign the printer here and save it and first log off and then i think it should help
    also check in the Control key setting in OPL8 which you have used for routings operations whether they allow printing shop floor papers and confirmations and time tickets based on your requirements
    this should probably help
    if useful plese reward points

  • Attach files to a pdf with Adobe LiveCyle Designer 7.1

    Hi, I need to add a button to a form so that it allows me to attach archives to the pdf, somebody knows if this is possible and in that case since it becomes?

    In my case I have a drop-down list of files with preloaded filenames to attach. Here is the code that works for me on a click of button.
    var selectFileName = form1.subform.DropDownList1.rawValue;
    if (selectFileName != "Please Select") {
    var doc = event.target;
    doc.importDataObject(selectFileName);
    var MyPar1 = doc.getDataObject(selectFileName);
    var filename = MyPar1.path;
    After you click the button it open a windows dialog box asking you to choose the file and adds the attachment to the attachment pane in runtime. To view the attachments simply view the attachment pane in runtime after you add the attachments.
    Good luck,

  • How do I get my XDP form in the SharePoint 2010 Adobe Form library?

    I was able to get the Adobe LiveCycle samples for SharePoint to work.  For some reason, I can't get my XDP forms to show up in the selection dropdown in the Adobe Form Library on SharePoint using the Adobe LiveCycle SharePoint connector for SharePoint 2010.
    Is there a trick that you have to do to the form to make it available.  The only difference that I noticed was the sample forms used a guide.
    We are using Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES3 and we have Adobe LiveCycle server ES4.  We are using SharePoint 2010.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Joe

    I got this problem solved.
    Solution:
    Create new Adobe Livecyle form
    Have an xsd created for the schema of what is going to be in the form
    Import that data model when creating the form
    Right-click on xsd data connection in form.  Click Connection Properties.
    Click Next.
    Click the checkbox "Embed XML Schema" (This is what I was missing).
    Click Finish.
    That's it to make the form show up in the SharePoint Adobe Form Library.

  • Price of Adobe lcds 3: ByBy Adobe LiveCycle Data Services 3 final

    Hi Adobe,
    first of all I would like to mention, that I worked since April 2009 with lcds 3 day and night. I was really excited about the product.
    We planned to set up a start up compay using lcds 3.
    When the final version came out, I was completey shocked about the pricing policy:
    The first CPU is no longer free, the 100 concurrent version is gone as well and the full licence at 18.500€ per CPU =(x1,5108=27.950 US $)!
    As the data within our is very confidential, we have to set up a seperate server for a group, with for example 50 users.
    That makes 27.950$/50=559$ per user. That is more then we planned to take for our complete product!
    A cheaper hosting solution would not help, as there are very strict regulations in Europe especially for financial data where the server has to be located and who has access to it.
    The whole situation remindes me at the 1980ties when Apple showed their first computers. What a wunderfull product! But the price in Europe was about 500-700% more expensive then a normal PC. With a bleeding heart I bought a PC with Microsoft on it. And guess what, about 12 computers and 25 years  later I am still using Windows!
    I think its not enough to have a very good product to win the crowd. You have to understand the situation of your customers what is possible and what not. Ok Adobe, go with a startup company to a bank and ask for a loan for a single server with 4CPU=74.000€ =111.900$. Only for a licence for one server for the backend! The server is not paid with it.
    The funny thing is, even if Adobe changes back the policy, I lost my confidence. I fear that Adobe would raise the price in the future.
    I will give Adobe not a second chance to hit me like that, to take me out of the market before I even started!

  • GP and WD with Adobe Interactive form question - need some guidance.

    Hello experts,
    FYI, I'm running ECC 5.0 Support Stack 9, EP 7.0 SPS 11, NWDS 2.0.9_15 with Adobe Livecyle Designer.
    I am slightly stuck with what I'm trying to do. I have created a web dynpro application that has an Adobe interactive form. I'm trying to use guided procedures to initiate a process so that this interactive form can be filled out and submitted to an approver. I need the relevant parties to receive a notification email. I have setup email templates and services, I just need to know how it will fit into the process. Once approved in the process, a BAPI should be invoked to populate some fields in the form. Should I be creating the Web Dynpro application to invoke the bapi or should a guided procedure callable object invoke the bapi? I know how to do these things, but I dont know which method I should use, in order to correctly have this process flow from point A - point B. Should the process appear in the Universal Worklist? If not, why not? Will it only appear in the GP runtime? I have pretty much read thru most of the tutorials but still cannot get this GP stuff to work as a WHOLE process.
    Any guidance, suggestions, possible solutions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Kunal.

    Hi,
    It seems you have not activated the Composite Form object. Only after activation you will be able to use it to create a Callable Object of type composite form.
    Hope this helps,
