Purchase order smart form - Version number and link to RFQ

Hi I am making enhancements to the purchase order smartform and wanted to print the version number (ekko-revno) on the print layout.
The structure for ekko which is being filled in at runtime from print program ZMMS_640FM06P has the field 'revno' blank. It is filling in the rest all fields. When I go into the ekko table I can see a value in this field. Does anyone know why this field is NOT being filled. I do not want to do a select on this field again in my smart form.
I would also like to know if there is a any way you can track back the RFQ number for a particular PO.
Thanks in advance..

I hope It wil be there in table, check the entry & check teh work area entry.
Quotation will be available in PO item data. Keep a break point in Table and workarea.

SMART FORMS SYSTEM COMPARISON

Hello Friends,
Is it possible to compare smart forms between two different systems? If yes how?
Your prompt reponse would be much appreciated.
Thanks And Rgds,
Hemendra

Hi Dishant,
Thanks for your prompt response. But I don't think there is a Version management option for Smart Forms therefore it's still unclear to me how smart forms can be compared between two different systems?
Looking forward to hear from you soon.

PDF without full version of ADOBE Acrobat (Smart Forms)

Hello,
I try to generate a smart forms document as pdf-file by successfully using the otf-converter and afterwards the pdf-viewer.
Because of company rules only ADOBE Acrobat 7.0 Elements and ADOBE Acrobat 7.0 Reader are installed and we are not allowed to install the full version of ADOBE Acrobat.
Now the pdf-viewer methods generate error "did not find ADOBE application to display PDF documents".
Can anybody help?
Kirstin
Coding for pdf-viewer:
DATA: my_pdf_viewer     TYPE REF TO cl_gui_pdfviewer,
      my_main_container TYPE REF TO cl_gui_custom_container.
    IF my_main_container IS INITIAL.
      CREATE OBJECT my_main_container
        EXPORTING
          container_name = 'CUSTOM_CNTL'
        EXCEPTIONS
          cntl_error     = 1
          OTHERS         = 2.
      IF sy-subrc <> 0.
        EXIT.
      ELSE.
   " create PDF Viewer object
        CREATE OBJECT my_pdf_viewer

What is the diff b/w Sap Scripts and Smart Forms

Hi,
Whats the diff b/w SAP Scripts and Smart Forms..
I need the internal explanation for both Smart Forms and SAP Scripts mean when we execute what happens whether Print Program r Forms starts execution 1st and SIMILARLY FOR SMARTFORMS WHETHER FM'S R FORMS.
Thanks & Regards,
Gopi.

Hi
Difference with SMARTFORMS vs. SapScript(SE71)
The Following are the differences :-
a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
c) Labels cannot be created in smartforms.
d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
f) Unlike sapscripts (RSTXSCRP), you cannot upload/download Smartform to your local harddisk.
It was said that it was provided in CRM 3.0 version, but not available in R/3. You can download smartforms into Local PC in a XML format. In the same way you can upload this XML format into Smartform. From the smartform editor itself you can call download option, if you are working in CRM 3.0 environment.
In R3 also, you can download into XML format. However, it's not sure about uploading. Refer to the program 'SF_XSF_DEMO'.
In 4.7 Enterprise, other have seen this utlity which is completey missing in 4.6c. There is functionality to downlaod a complete form or only a particular node. (Utilities -> Download form). It will create a XML file and save it in the hard disk.
For others, if you want to download/upload the Smartforms source, you will need the help from the Basis people. What you can do is to create a Transport and then FTP down to your local harddisk. When you need the Smartform source in another system, you have FTP up the Smartforms file back to the SAP server. Finally, the Basis team, will tp it into your system.
g) The protect and endprotect command in sapscript doesn't work with smartforms. For example on a invoice: First data of position no 80. is printed on page one, other data of position no 80 is printed on page 2. And there's nothing you can do about it. Actually, there is something you can do about it. By using a folder node and checking the 'protect' checkbox, everything in that folder will be page protected.

How to delete a line in smart forms

Ammad

Hi Ammad
i have a solution to ur question.
well u only want to print a line in the smartform Main window table if u have data in the first field of ur internal table lets take name as T_FINAL.
So u want to print lines in Smartform if T_Final-Field1 (which for month) is not empty.
For this go to the Condition tab of the Line (ROW) inside ur MAIN AREA In TABLE which must be there in any window probably in the Main window.
Double click on the Line (ROW) in MAIN AREA, It will contain 2 tabs Output option and Condition.
Click On condition and write under FIELD NAME the field of ur internal table WA u r using in TABLE for eg T_Final-Field1 if its Internal table with header line or if u r using a separate Work area use the work area like WA_Final-FIELD1, then click on the Square button just in front of it to select an RELATIONAL OPERATOR , put there the RELATIONAL OPERATOR as "Not Equal to" and in the comparison value column write a space quoted with single quotation as ' '.
After u do this any line encountered with its first field of WA_FINAL i.e wa_final-field1as empty wont be printed.
This Reloves ur issue.

Issue Regarding Chinese characters In Smart Form Print preview..

Hi All,
I am working on a smart form development for chinese users. The requirement is the user will login using English & when the delivery will be issued for output, a check will be done on the country of user. If that comes as china then the international version (C) maintained for that customer will come as output.
Now the problem is even if I login using EN or ZH the below issue I am facing always.
In the database I can view the details in chinese properly by logging in as ZH. During debugging also i checked the data from table ADRC & MAKT is coming in chinese properly. But when i gave the values to be output in SmartForm, it is showing the characters like how it will look if I login using EN & view the table contents.
When i view the data by changing character set as Simplified Chinese then in table i can see chinese texts properly. But when the same data goes to print preview it shows the chinese characters like as it would appear when character set is Unicode or West European..
Please help..
Thanks in advance.

Dear,
print preview and physical printout are two different things.
PrintPreview:
The data stream will be sent to the frontend and rendered with windows-fonts etc (for backend prints a simulation).
Printout:
Frontend: You need a printer, that maps the character, you have to use SAPWIN or SAPWINCF when using cascading fonts. The rendering will be done in the windows spooler.
Backend: Your printer needs also a mapping (look like something with UTF8). Also the printer needs the fonts installed because the rendering will be done in the printer!
If you use the pdf-printer in SAP, you need to upload all necessary fonts (TTF) for the pdf-composer. Also you need a unicode pdf printer for that.

Christian

How to create a smart form using the purchase order

hi everybody............
i have created one purchase order, i want to print that PO using smartforms rather than scripts. how can i do it, can anyone help me out in solving the issue. i am using the version sap 4.7
Edited by: mhyderali on Aug 21, 2009 4:08 PM

Hi,
Before answer your question few things i would like to kno:
1. currently is there any script is printing while displaying output.
2. do u allready hae a smartform or you are going to develop a smartform.
3. if you dont have a smartform and there is a script attached then you can convert script into smartform and then you can change in the smart form accordingly.
4. after devloping a new smart form or converting script into smartform what you need to do is go to V/83 transaction give Output Type which is associated with script and Application area (for purchase order i.e. EF). then press ok screen will display here you can change the name of your form name under the form column.
6. if you dnt have the Output type then you need to create a output type for the purchase order.
Please let me know if you have still some question.
Thanks

Output in Customer Language for Service Dispatch Note Smart form

We have upgraded from ECC 5.0 to ECC 6.0.
After the upgrade we are facing an issue in some of our Service related smart forms.
The version of the driver program is same in both the systems and the smart form is also same.
The customer's language is maintained in Customer Master data.
In the un-upgraded system, the forms were printed in the Customer language according to what is maintained in the customer master data.
But after the upgrade, in the new system, the form is being printed in English as opposed to the Customer language in the older system.
As I have already mentioned above, in both the systems, the driver program, smart form and Customer Language in the customer master data are similar.
Kindly suggest me the solution if anyone has faced a similar problem.

Hi, Actually I have checked in debugging and have come to know that during the upgrade, when I have downloaded the form from ECC 5.0 and uploaded it to ECC6.0, the Language option in the general attributes tab of the text modules is blank and hence the form is displayed in English only.
Is there any way that I can get the smartform uploaded as it is in the earlier system?
