Smartform or Sapscript- Does it diifer in printing barcodes.?

Hi All,
Does the output of a barcode differ, if smartform or a sapscript is used.
Does smartform take care of the printers barcode printing..
One of our barcodes only get printed in a specific printer, so in that case would it work better if we made a smartform.
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Vinotha M

Yes.
If you have Barcode in SAPScript, than you need some specific kind of hardware to be present in the Printer to be able to print. Barcode in the SAPScript is being printed with the OLD technology. So, SAP sends OTF data of the Barcode to the Printer and Printer must understand it to be able to print.
Whereas SmartForm uses the new technology of the Barcode priting. In the new technology, SAP process that barcode as the Image instead of the raw OTF. So, SmartForm is able to print the Barcode irrespective to the Printer hardware.
Please check this help:

Urgent!! Printing Barcode using smartforms

req: need to print barcode using smartforms.
【Settings】
The following settings are made already
1. Style ( paragraph, character type(Syatem Barcode ) )is created and activated (T-code:Smartforms)
2. In the smartform I used the above style to print barcode .
※TEXTTYPE = TEXT ELEMENT.
【Execution】
1. I run the smartform in test mode with setting any print parameters
2. Trigger print preview
【Problem】
1. I am getting only BAR's no barcodes.
The bracodes are not displayed properly.
If I test the same system barcode in SE73 it displayed properly.
Is there anyother settings are necessory?
Plz help me in solving the peoblem

Hi
To Create a Bar code prefix:
1) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.
Which barcode printer are you using ? Can you download this file and see.
http://www.servopack.de/Files/HB/ZPLcommands.pdf.
It will give an idea about barcode commands.

Detailed information about SAP Barcodes
A barcode solution consists of the following:
- a barcode printer
- a barcode reader
- a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.

I am attaching the list of BARCODE supported printers
List of device types in SAP Releases 4.6x/6.xx/NW04/NW04s
OSS NOTE : 8928
Installation of new device types ********************
Many device types are appended as a zip-attachment to this note.
README.TXT contains information about these device types and codepages.
README_UPLOAD.TXT contains information on how to import the device
types.
PRINTER DRIVERS AND DEVICE TYPES:
In R/3, a distinction is made between "printer driver" and "device type". The device type consists of all the attributes defined for an output device. For correct access, these must be made known in the R/3 system. They cover aspects such as control commands for font selection, page size, character set selection, character set used and so on. One of these attributes is the printer driver to be used by SAPscript (R/3 forms processor) for this particular printer.
If your printer is not specified in the list below, ask the manufacturer if the printer is compatible with one of the defined printers or if it can be used with another emulation (for example, Postscript).
If the printer is not compatible or cannot be operated using an emulation, you must create a new device type (if the printer is not compatible). To print from SAPscript, you must choose one of the existing printer drivers.
At present, there are five SAPscript printer drivers. They include:
for HP-PCL5 (for example, HP Laserjet 3,4,5,6 series)
for PostScript printers (PS level 2)
for PRESCRIBE (for example, Kyocera FS-1500)
for device types SWIN/SAPWIN/xxSWIN/xxSAPWIN
for all other models.
The last driver is known as the "standard driver". It cannot provide absolutely precise positioning on the paper and does not support proportional fonts. Printer drivers are relevant for forms output with SAPscript. For the output of ABAP lists special printer drivers are only used as of Release 4.5A. They are anchored in the C kernel and are developed and maintained exclusively by SAP.
In the spool environment, device types refer not only to printers but also other output devices, for example, fax machines. Device types support specific printers or printer models. Device type definitions are stored completely in tables and can be individually adapted, modified or enhanced. If SAP performs such an adjustment for a customer, it constitutes a consulting service, and is generally charged seperately. On the other hand, the list of device types, above all in conjunction with SAP's hardware partners, is continually expanded.
COMPATIBLE PRINTERS:
Some printer models have been so successful on the market that many OEM products, clones and compatibles are also listed. You can often use compatible printers with R/3 by entering the printer definition of the original. Since complete compatibility is extremely rare, SAP can offer no assurances regarding the usability of compatible printers. This also applies to follow-up models made by the original producer.
LIST OF PRINTERS:
This is the list of device types supplied by SAP in different Releases. Most of these device types use "Western European" or "North American" character sets. Some device types in newer Releases however, also support other character sets and language areas such as Russian or Czech.
The device types named in this list are supported in the standard R/3 System as of the release mentioned.
If an OCR-A font (prerequisite for check printing) or an OCR-B font is supported in the R/3 device types, this is indicated. However, this generally requires additional font cassettes or firmware for the printer involved, since few printers have an OCR-A font "built in." For additional information about this, contact the printer manufacturer.

Print Prog-Auto Print Barcode Label for Goods Receipt(MIGO) using Smartform

Hi Guru's
I have created a smartform that prints barcodes on a label.
My tests print successfully to the Printronix thermal label printer.
Is there perhaps a SAP Standard print program that i can use in my output type that will call my smartform upon goods receipt(MIGO)?
please bear in mind that i am looking for a print program that calls a SMARTFORM. not a sapscript.
/SMB40/M07DR does not exist on my system. and I am going to use output type WEE1 - for LABEL Printing
Awaiting your feedback.
Thanks in advance geniuses!

Good luck dude,
In that same program I noticed We01 that will print a smartform GR. I think if you use form entry_we01 in your output control you should do well.

Printing barcodes in smartforms

How to print barcodes in smartfroms

hey Ganesh,
welcome to <b>SDN</b>,
check the below extra info addition to above one
Which barcode printer are you using ? Can you download this file and see.
http://www.servopack.de/Files/HB/ZPLcommands.pdf.
It will give an idea about barcode commands.
Check this link:

Details information about SAP Barcodes
A barcode solution consists of the following:
- a barcode printer
- a barcode reader
- a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.
The next part of the equation can be a bit tricky as you will need to get a printer to print that barcode font. Regular laser printers does not normally print barcode fonts, only specialized industrial printers that is specifically designed to support that protocol and that uses specialized label media and heat transfer (resin) ribbon to create the sharp image required for barcodes.
Not to fear though, there are two ways to get around this:
- You can have your IT department do some research -
most laser printers can accept a font cartridge/dimm chip (similar to computer memory), called a BarDIMM that will allow a laser printer to support the printing of barcodes.
- Secondly, you can buy software that you can upload in your SAP print Server that will convert the barcode symbology as an image that will print on a regular laser printer. I found that this option results in less sharper barcodes. This option is really if you need to convert a large quantity of printers (>10) to support barcodes.
- Thirdly, you can buy a third party software like Barcode.dll and install on your frontend PC connected to the laser printer.
Now you have a barcode printed - what next?
Well there are two options, depending on your business requirements:
- You can use an existing SAP transaction on a regular workstation and get a barcode wedge reader to hook up between the keyboard and the PC. These wedge readers comes in a wand or scanner format. There are even wireless wedge scanners available that allows you to roam a few yards from the workstation to scan a label. This approach is mostly used where you want to prevent human errors in typing in long material, batch or serial numbers in receiving or issuing of material. The problem is that it's just replacing the keyboard input and you are basically locked down in one location and have to bring all the material to that location to process.
- Another solution is to use SAPConsole transactions
or write your own ABAP Dialog programs that will fit onto a barcode enabled wireless handheld terminal and that will follow the business logic as executed on the shop floor.
These programs are highly complex exercises in industrial engineering and ergonomics because of the limited screen sizes and limited ability to accept keyboard input. The user is instructed step-by-step and only scan and push F-keys to interact with the SAP system. Scan, scan, beep, beep, enter - highly automated.
Barcode Standard
To Create a Bar code prefix:
1) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
if u find it useful plz mark the points on the left side

Can we migrate smartform to sapscript

hello excuse me,
i am trying to do innovative things...
can any one tell me how to do a sapscript with table in it..
else you have to tell how to migrate a smartform into sapscript..
because i am struck with an issue..it seems in DOTMATRIX printer table is not appearing when a smartform is printed..
so my master mind tells me i have to do it via sapscripts and do hardcoding for table lines...i dotn any anything in sapscripts..i tried 3 days in smartforms to get ulines vlines ..no luck..now i am set to learn sapscripts
ok...so help me..
bye

Hi,
I wouldn´t recommend to migrate to SAPscript, because this is an old technology that in future versions is going to be not supported any more by SAP; therefore, you´ll have to migrate SAPscript forms to SmartForms or AdobeForms.
There´s a migration tool from SAPscript to SmartForms but not on the opposite way. You never get that from a new version to an old version.
What do you mean by a table ?? a table like in SmartForms is not supported by SAPscript, ´cause the graphical design is very poor. It is more for text display. You can create windows and set the line borders and also you can make the background gray or dark but that´s all.

Is it possible to print barcodes from LT31 (SAPScript) on a Zebra?

Hi
We have a factory that would like to print their picking lists/transfer orders using transaction LT31 to a Zebra ZM600 printer. The transaction appears to create a spool in the SAPScript format.
We have tried pretty much all of the Zebra drivers (ZEB), a standard HP driver and a ASCII line printer driver (in SPAD) but nothing works - barcodes are not printed. For some drivers the format of the spool looks good in SP01, but then nothing is printed at all at the printer! In other cases the text is okay but barcodes are not, in other cases the text is complete gibberish.
The user has been informed that SmartForms should be used instead of SAPScript but we believe this would involve changes at ABAP level and our ABAP support is by a third party company which we are trying to avoid using.
I have seen SAP Note 179534 - Label printing with Zebra printers (SAPscript) but it seems this would also involve Application Support/ABAP teams etc.
Is there anything we (SAP Basis) or the end user can do to be able to print barcodes from LT31 to the Zebra printer without involving Application/ABAP support?
Thanks
Ross

Tried but get an error:
SAP spool error log
=====================
Print request processing log
The host spool is reporting errors

Idoc generation and reprint for smartforms and sapscripts

Dear Experts,
Currently our scenario is as below.
We are using XML for all outputs. once IDOC is generated it is passed to XML port and print is issued.
To reprint IDOC we have a customised program where in we can enter idoc number and print output.
Now we are converting all to smartforms and at some places sapscript. So how to setup reprint for idocs in smartforms and sapscript as it is done for sapscripts. Do we need to make some config in WE19 to issue smart forms and sapscripts.
If possible please give all steps right from preparing structures till reprint.
Can anyone help with detailed solutions.

--> when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
-->Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
-->The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.

Conversion PDF Form to Smartforms or Sapscript possible?

Hi Gurus,
Is it possible to convert a pdf form to a Smartforms form or sapscript form?
Reason is because for some new pdf forms like IDCN_CASHFLOW there is no proper form in Smartforms or Sapscript available.
2nd reason is customer does not have an ADS installed.
Thanks+Regards
Dieter

Hi Dieter,
generally no such tool.
However, the Adobe form is designed to separate the data logic and layout logic, therefore an experienced smartform+adobe form developer can convert it manually without very large effort.
Since the SAPscript form mixes the data logic and layout logic, it is not recommended be used no more.
Cheers.

What are Smartforms and SAPscripts?

Hey Everyone,
Where do we use Smartforms and SAPscripts...how to we create these...if u have step step procedures that will be helpful...
Thanks in Advance...
Cheers:
Jim

Smartform is client indep.
Scripts is client dependent.
Smartform will generate function module.
Script will not.
Tcode for scripts is se71
Tcode for smartforms is smartforms
go to sap library ............ their u can find the step by step procedure............
SAP Smart Forms is introduced in SAP Basis Release 4.6C as the tool for creating and maintaining forms.
SAP Smart Forms allow you to execute simple modifications to the form and in the form logic by using simple graphical tools; in 90% of all cases, this won't include any programming effort. Thus, a power user without any programming knowledge can configure forms with data from an SAP System for the relevant business processes.
Execute transaction SMARTFORMS to start SAP Smart Forms.
Key Benefits of SAP Smart Forms:
SAP Smart Forms allows you to reduce considerably the implementation costs of mySAP.com solutions since forms can be adjusted in minimum time. You design a form using the graphical Form Painter and the graphical Table Painter. The form logic is represented by a hierarchy structure (tree structure) that consists of individual nodes, such as nodes for global settings, nodes for texts, nodes for output tables, or nodes for graphics.
To make changes, use Drag & Drop, Copy & Paste, and select different attributes. These actions do not include writing of coding lines or using a Script language.
Using your form description maintained in the Form Builder, Smart Forms generates a function module that encapsulates layout, content and form logic. So you do not need a group of function modules to print a form, but only one. For Web publishing, the system provides a generated XML output of the processed form. Smart Forms provides a data stream called XML for Smart Forms (XSF) to allow the use of 3rd party printing tools. XSF passes form content from R/3 to an external product without passing any layout information about the Smart Form.
To print a form, you need a program for data retrieval and a Smart Form that contains the entire from logic. As data retrieval and form logic are separated, you must only adapt the Smart Form if changes to the form logic are necessary. The application program passes the data via a function module interface to the Smart Form. When activating the Smart Form, the system automatically generates a function module. At runtime, the system processes this function module.
You can insert static and dynamic tables. This includes line feeds in individual table cells, triggering events for table headings and subtotals, and sorting data before output.
You can check individual nodes as well as the entire form and find any existing errors in the tree structure. The data flow analysis checks whether all fields (variables) have a defined value at the moment they are displayed.
SAP Smart Forms allow you to include graphics, which you can display either as part of the form or as background graphics. You use background graphics to copy the layout of an existing (scanned) form or to lend forms a company-specific look. During printout, you can suppress the background graphic, if desired.
SAP Smart Forms also support postage optimizing.
Also read SAP Note No. 168368 - Smart Forms: New form tool in Release 4.6C
Example Forms Available in Standard SAP R/3
SF_EXAMPLE_01
Simple example; invoice with table output of flight booking for one customer
SF_EXAMPLE_02
Similar to SF_EXAMPLE_01 but with subtotals
SF_EXAMPLE_03
Similar to SF_EXAMPLE_02, whereby several customers are selected in the application program; the form is called for each customer and all form outputs are included in an output request.

Smartform and sapscript..

in which scenario v prefer smartform over sapscripts and in which scenarios sapscript over smartforms?

Hi,
Smartforms are better to use than scripts as they provide more facility like color, graphical user interface etc, but scripts are the oldest form of layout available in SAP. There is no advantage of using script over smartform. This entirely depends on the choice in case of new developments. However, if you have to change/customize existing script then you have to deal with scripts only.
Difference with SMARTFORMS vs SapScript(SE71).
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) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
d) Unlike sapscripts (RSTXSCRP), you cannot upload/download Smartform to your local harddisk.
e) In smartforms there is only one main window.
In scripts we can create 99 main windows.
f) Smartforms are client independent. but scripts are client dependent.
g) we can execute smartforms directly without driver program. But it is not possible in script.
h) peform statement is possible in script but not in smartforms.
i) loop statement is possible in smartforms.
In script for every data record controls moves from
script to driver program and to script.
In smrtforms this is not rquired.
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.
i) 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.
Check the link,
http://www.sap-img.com/smartforms/sap-smart-forms.htm
Conversion of SAPSCRIPT to SMARTFORMS
SAP provides a conversion for SAPscript documents to SMARTforms.
This is basically a function module, called FB_MIGRATE_FORM. You can start this function module by hand (via SE37), or create a small ABAP which migrates all SAPscript forms automatically.
You can also do this one-by-one in transaction SMARTFORMS, under
Utilities -> Migrate SAPscript form.

Print barcode in matrix printer (IBM6500) by smartforms

Hi,
Does the alignment look correct in te print preview? There are some problems with dot matrix printers due to limitations of the ESC/P printer lamguage.(see SAP note #19807)
Try printing via windows and a windows device type like SAPWIN or SWINCF. The result should be better.

AIO remote does not find my printer

I changed Internet providers a few months ago. I have not been able to print from my iPhone or iPad since then. AIO remote does not find my printer at all.

Hi,
Both AirPrint and the HP AIO Remote app relies on Multicasting, a such have to be supported and enabled by your router.
Some routers support a such by default, some require settings changes and some do not support Multicasting which required for a such.
Please clarify your router brand and model to better understand any possible steps to try.
