Smartform archiving

I have a problem archiving the output from a smartform. Within the printing program, the function that calls the smartform needs to be called 3 times. The reasoning behind this is related to grouping information on different sheets. Every time the smartform is called, the following parameters are passed:
(first call)
control_parameters-no_open=' '
control_parameters-no_close='X'
(second call)
control_parameters-no_open='X'
control_parameters-no_close='X'
(third call)
control_parameters-no_open='X'
control_parameters-no_close=' '
This is all needed for the way in which we show the data. The rest is done as usual. In every call to the smartform, I pass the parameters:
archive_index
archive_parameters
Note that before passing the above parameters, I set the following, in order to request archiving:
output_options-tdarmod = nast-tdarmod.
In conclusion, when I call the smartform once, the archiving works well. However, when I call it more than once, no archiving takes place. An interesting point to note is that from transaction vf02 (Change Billing Document) the above behaviour occur (no archiving). However, if I use transaction vf31 (output from billing) I am able to archive all three calls to the smartform. Any ideas? Thanks.

Peter,
Thanks for your message. The problem regarding from where the output was triggered was fixed. I have another question though. We need to make several calls to the smartform function. As of now, it creates an archive for every call to the function. We would like to have it create only one archive, independently of the number of function calls. Thanks again.
Regards,
Alvaro

Smartforms - archive exemple

Hi expert,
I want to archive a form ( by smartform ). I know that I need to pass some parameters like that:
CALL FUNCTION wk_fb
    EXPORTING
      control_parameters = control_parameters
      output_options     = output_options
      user_settings      = 'X'
      archive_index      = archive_index
      archive_index_tab = archive_index_tab
      archive_parameters = archive_parameters
    IMPORTING
      job_output_info    = job_output_info
      job_output_option = wa_ssfcresop
    TABLES
      it_tab             = it_tab
    EXCEPTIONS
      formatting_error   = 1
      internal_error     = 2
      send_error         = 3
      user_canceled      = 4
      OTHERS             = 5.
Do you have some exemple to fill the following parameters ?
      archive_index      = archive_index
      archive_index_tab = archive_index_tab
      archive_parameters = archive_parameters
I don't Know how need to fill it !!

XML is a general language where u can define ur own tags and own document structure,
XSF is an XML based language.
where the structure is defined according to smartform structure, with tags customised to suit smartform structure.
In case of multiple forms within one spool job, the following XSF
output is appended to the last one. This means that several XML tags can occur within one XSF
stream, which is the only variation from the XML standard.

SMARTFORM Archive

Hi,
I need your help to solve a issue with archiving smartform's output.
(step 1)First i kept TDARMOD = 1, and then called function moudule fm_name to print delivery output.
If it is successfully printed, then i will have to archive that output.
(step 2) So now i kept TDARMOD = 2 , and called same function moudule to archive.
The problem is, output is printed in both cases as i dont want to print in step 2. So only first time (step 1)it has to print.
Any sugestions would be appreciated.

Archive Smartform from BSP

Hello
In our scenario we are entering data into a BSP and want to call a smartform and archive the smartform output as PDF on the click of a button. The displaying of the PDF file in the browser works fine. What I cannot get working is for the smartform to automatically archive the output using archive_index and archive_parameters. In ABAP this works fine but I cannot find why the same call in the BSP displays the form but does not archive the displayed data.
Does anybody have any ideas?
Thanks
Harry

Hello Prabu
Thanks for your answer. I thought in my question I clearly stated that converting the OTF and displaying the PDF was not the problem. Sorry if it was not clear enough.
In any case I have found a solution to the problem myself. After receiving the OTF data I copy it into an identical structure of the same type and use one to archive with FM CONVERT_OTF_AND_ARCHIVE and the other is used to display the PDF file in the browser. Surely not "state of the art" but it solves my problem.
Thanks to all
Harry

How to retrive the archived (in PDF) smartform as a email attachment.

Hi ,
I have a requirement where the smartform is archived in PDF mode and I have to retrieve the archived smartfrom and send the mail with PDf attachment.
I referred the sdn forum for the same and I could some posts posted earlier and quite a few are solved. I implemented the sample code provided by some of the posts and I still get the same error when I try to open the mail/attachment in SOST transaction. But I didnt understand what exactly they did to get away with the error when we try to open the attachment.
Please help me with the correct code to get this issue solved.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Sim,
The Error says:
"Adobe reader could not open 'InvoiceDetails_20110228094610.709_X.pdf' because it is either not a supported file or because the file has been damaged(for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decorded).
Below is the sample code that I got from one of the forum postings. I implemented the same and got the same error that the earlier posting was referring. From that step, I didnt know what to do further.

Hi ,

I was able to archive the original pages, but when I am trying to archive the copies along with the original pages, I am getting an Information message,
saying " OTF end command // missing " and giving a dump.
Can somebody help me on this.

use CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF function module and pass archive_index = tao_dara as importing parameter. after that archive the PDF file by using the FM CONVERT_OTF_AND_ARCHIVE.
you can also refer to the following link:

i hope it helps.

Problem while archiving a smartform

Dear All,
We have implemented records management and in GMGRANT tcode, we created button and which would create a smartform when we press that. Based on the Archive link settings from OAAD tcode, when ever we try to archive that smartform, it would trigger event 'ASSIGNED', we did type linkage for this even and assign a custom function module. There we designed to add this smartform as an element to Grant record. Its working perfectly in Production till yesterday. Suddently, its not working now, and when I checked the event trace, this event is not getting triggered. Would you let me know the possible reasons for this??
Thanks and regards,
Chandra.

Archiving invoice using smartform

Hi All
I am trying to archive invoices using smartform.
In the program I am directly calling the smartform by passing the archiving parameters to the function module of smartform which is determined using CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'.
I am passing the parameter to the archive_index and archive_parameters in CALL FUNCTION lf_fm_name.
If from the same program I am calling driver program of sap script then the document is getting archived.
Is there any problem with archiving using smartform.
Please guide.
