Smartforms output different in two systems

Hi Gurus,
I've a smartform in Q and Prd. Versions are same but the font and style look different in both systems. In Q, the form is in bold, but not in Prd. Is it related to printer settings? What to check in SPAD? Both systems use LOCL printer. I also noticed the device type in SPAD is different. Does it impact the font?
Regards,
Raj.

Hello Raju.
     1) If you have used smartstyle for font, check if it is transported to PRD. It may still be in QAS.
     2) Get the smartform backup from PRD and upload it in DVT and transport to QAS.
     Now check the output in QAS.
Regards.

Smartform output different

Hello,
I have some smartforms, the output is different in my two systems. In the developpement system everything is ok, when I go in the consolidation system ... the text is not align, the gray is not the same, the tabulation are sometimes different ...
I have no idea how to check if the smartforms in the two system are the both, and what could be different ..
Any help are welcome
Regards
Frédéric
PS: I have check the request order.

Hi Wojtek,
I have check the form style, but I see something strange in the table STXSADM, there is the same creation date, but not the same modification date (with the same version number).
So I ask a new request order for this form style. I'm waiting the result.
I have check the output device also, it's the same, I use local device of my Windows.
Thanks for your answer

% DB increase differs for two system from the same landscape

Hi all ,
I have done upgrade and then unicode conversion for the two system- sandbox and development from 4.6 C to ECC 6.0 with oracle 10 G and AIX 5.3
On sandbox % db( used db size in DB02 ) increase is 60 to 80 which is as per SAP figures after unicode conversion however on dev it is almost 150 % .
Has anybody faced the same problem before or can you suggest somthing for this tremendous data growth
Also what I have observed is threre are 7 tablespace on sandbox and 8 on Dev with "PSAPSR370" as the additional one on DEV ( PSAPSR3700 is different )
Please help me on this
-Ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
the database growth depends heavily on the content. Which languages do you have installed in your system and which modules are used by your company?
I think the normal growth should be in a range of zero to 30 percent. The lower end comes from the reorganization effect due to the migration and 30 percent comes due to the fact that most data is normally numeric and numbers are the same with or without Unicode. But in rare situations it could be possible to see much higher values. The reason is, that Oracle, and also DB2, are using UTF-8 encoding if you're running your system as Unicode system. In UTF-8 a two byte Unicode character could be encoded in up to four bytes. That means if your systems contains lots of double byte characters it could grow much more than 30% but it seems unusual to me.
Are you sure that nothing was wrong with your migration?
Best regards

Same font appears different in two systems

The problem principally lies with transaction MM03 (Material Master - Display). The material description in "Additional Data" tab in any Material View is appearing to be of different fonts in two different client systems.
Upon checking, I found that both systems use the same font (Arial Monospace for SAP) with fotn size of 9.
Hence, I am not able to understand the difference in appearance of the two.
I have tried comapring I18N settings of both the systems. Please suggest a way to get rid of this problem.
Regards,
Ankur

HI,
Font depends on client.............so first check the client
Just check the SE73 Font download

Number field displays differently on two systems.

I have a ColdFusion front end/Oracle backend application I inherited from the company that lost the contract to my company. In one screen, there is a field the customer wished to increase from NUMBER (10,3) to NUMBER (10,8). After researching and conferring with the Gov't DBAS supporting the production and test systems, it was suggested that I just alter the field to plain NUMBER, I did so on my Development system and changed the CF code to allow for proper display. It worked quite well. I had the Gov't DBAs change the field in the production and test databases to match. I then FTP'd the CF code to the test system. It allows for entry and initial display of the new field size, but upon saving it (unlike my Development test) truncates/rounds up (i.e.- 123.87654321 becomes 123.87700000). I have ensured the proper code is there and verified with the Gov't DBAs that the databases matches my Develop database. What things could cause this problem? It has me baffled. All the instances are identical and the code on Development and Test is identical. Any ideas?

I remove all designation and set to just NUMBER. From Oracle documentation...
NUMBER(p,s)
Number having precision p and scale s. The precision p can range from 1 to 38. The scale s can range from -84 to 127.
There are 2 different concepts of number here. You should not mix them up.
With Number, there is no explicit precision and no explicit scale. That is, there are no arguments p, s. In that case, Oracle stores a number in the form d * 10^s, where d is a number that can have up to 38 digits and s ranges between -84 and 127. This is similar to the so-called scientific notation.
However, your original question is about 123.87654321. You want this number to differ from 123.87700000. These are decimals, which imply you require precision and scale. The number 123.87654321 requires the type Number(11,8). You had allocated Number(10,8) to it, which falls short.
I also notice that the conversion 123,87700000 has a comma. If that is indeed so, and not just a typing mistake, then it means two things: (1) The conversion already occurred, even before the database, in a locale in which a comma is used as decimal separator; (2) the database column is not of numeric type.

Last changed date different between two systems after transport

Hi, first of all, I am not from basis background and just want to make sure whether is this something correct or not.
I found that the "Last changed date" and "username" are not same between the original system and the target system. Is this something configurable?
And the "username" field is totally empty. However, the program code's version is identical in both systems.

I think I misunderstood your question. You are referring to the system Transports not the connections between systems. If the Transports are not transferring all the contents, you really should talk to your basis folks and tell them which items are not being reproduced correctly.

Smartform output in two different printers

Hi Experts,
I want to take the Smartform output in two different printers. printers has been added in the table <b>pkhd</b> .
please anyone suggest how to pass these two in the smartform function module?
Thanks in Advance
Kavya Deva

Hi Kavya,
You can execute the Smart form Function Module. It will then pop-up a dialog box asking for an output device. There you can specify the Output device type and go for Print or Print Preview as necessary.

Can two different SRM clients systems connect to one R/3 Back-end system?

Hello,
Trying to developing SRM Co-Exist/Global strategy, based on the following scenario:
1. Two different SRM client systems, each at DIFFERENT SRM Version/Release Level. SRM system "A" runs in Stand-Alone and Extend Classic Scenario mode. SRM system "B" runs in Classic Scenario mode
2. Two different R/3 back-end systems, each with SAME R/3 4.7 Version/Release Level.
Question 1: Can the two (2) different SRM client systems be connected to one (1) of the R/3 back-end systems?
Question 2: Are there any Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) issues/difficulties to consider from either the SRM client or R/3 back-end side?
Question 3: Does each SRM client need it own unique transaction document type(s) and number range(s) definitions?
Question 4: Are there any other difficulties, for example, with RFC and Partner Profile related definitions and what are the steps to address/resolve difficulties?
Please advise and thanks in advance for your feedback!
Regards,
Ed

Question 1: Can the two (2) different SRM client systems be connected to one (1) of the R/3 back-end systems?
They can be connected
Question 2: Are there any Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) issues/difficulties to consider from either the SRM client or R/3 back-end side?
Make sure that you have unique consumer entries for Middleware for Material replication, RFCs etc
Question 3: Does each SRM client need it own unique transaction document type(s) and number range(s) definitions?
Yes you need to have them.
Question 4: Are there any other difficulties, for example, with RFC and Partner Profile related definitions and what are the steps to address/resolve difficulties?
Don't see any difficulties as long as the a structured approach is followed.

Need smartform output in different languages

Hi expert,
Can you please let me know how can I see the output of a smartform in different languages. I'm seeing the output of a sales order. I have three output types . ZZAC,ZZ00, ZZ01. The smarform is developed with the language attributes of Translate into all languages. Is it required to convert the forms in SE63? or there are other ways we can see it.
I need the output in all the languages like FR,EN,DE,IT,ES ,EN etc.
Thanks in Advance,
Abhi

HI,
Try This... hope it will solve your problem....
To maintain the translations:
1. Go to transaction SE63 in R/3. Go to menu Translation->R/3 Enterprise->Other Long Texts.
2. Select the object type in the pop up. Smartform (SSF) object type is found under Forms and Styles(FS).
3. Enter the name of the Smart form and choose the source and target language(Let the Source Language be 'EN'). Now Click on 'EDIT'.
4. This would open a screen with the Smartform code in Source language on the top and an editor with the same code in the bottom. Find the text for which you need to maintain the translation and insert the translation in that place.
As usual after required texts are maintained Save and Activate.
To see the translated Smartform create an output type and assign the smartform and the driver program to this output type. In the transaction that sends output to this smartform, select the output type and select the language in which the smartform has to be displayed (translations have to be maintained in this language).This will give the smartform in the required language.

Loading two different SAP BW system from one SAP R/3

Hi all,
is it possible to load the data from one SAP R/3 4.7 to two different SAP BW systems in parallel?:
A) BW 2.1C
B) BW 3.5
I mean not because R/3 has for example version of R/3 Plug-In which is compatible only to one R/3 Plug-In installed on BW side.
Are there any other restrictions? Ar there any workarounds how to hande this situation?
Thanks,
m./

Hi dear,
I think you shouldn't have any problem!
Look at OSS Note 775568 'Two and more BW systems against one OLTP system' to have more details...
"R/3 has for example version of R/3 Plug-In which is compatible only to one R/3 Plug-In installed on BW side"...what's your plug-in version in R/3 ? I can't understand what do you mean with "R/3 Plug-In installed on BW side" !!!
Hope it helps!
Bye,
Roberto
...and please don't forget to reward the answers...it's THE way to say thanks here, my dear colleague !

Smartforms have different FM,Program Name in different system

Hi,
I have created few Smartforms in our DEV system & imported to QAS & PRD.
Here I found the Smartform - Function Module, Programs names are different in each system.
Smartform: Z_SD_INV_LETTER_V3
Sys                     Function Module
DEV                       /1BCDWB/SF00000006
QAS                       /1BCDWB/SF00000002
PRD                       /1BCDWB/SF00000002
On import the changes are reflected correctly in the corresponding Function Module & programs
in each system.
1. I want to know why there is a change in version of the Function Module/Program in each system.
2. How are the changes been applied on importing to each system as the version differs.
Regards
Vincent

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your answers...
From my investigation found that few tests smartforms was created in DEV system, which was the cause of the problem. My Smartform present versions across the landscape looks as follows:
Smartform: Z_SD_INV_LETTER_V3
Sys     Function Module
DEV    /1BCDWB/SF00000006
QAS   /1BCDWB/SF00000002
PRD    /1BCDWB/SF00000002
In order to maintain all the function module name to be the same across the landscape, is there anything that can be done
in DEV as follows:
Smartform: Z_SD_INV_LETTER_V3
Sys     Function Module
DEV    /1BCDWB/SF00000002
QAS   /1BCDWB/SF00000002
PRD    /1BCDWB/SF00000002
Like something I could reset the internal number range for the smartforms & load the smartform again and activate or so...?. Please let me know...
Regards
Vincent

Can't install TCS4 on two different XP SP3 systems

Hi,
I want to send the output of a smartform as html in email body.
I found and used this bolg: :<a href="/people/pavan.bayyapu/blog/2005/08/30/sending-html-email-from-sap-crmerp HTML Email from SAP CRM/ERP</a>

Converting smartforms output into PDF

Hi ALL,
How to convert the smartforms output into PDF based form. After executing the form, it should directly open in PDF. How to do this?
Points will be awarded.
Thanks and regards,
vinoth.

Hi Vinoth Kumar,
Please go throuh the below procedure and sample Code, this might help you.
Procedure
When we activate the Smartform the system generates a Function Module. The function module name we can get from Smartfrom screen from menubar
Environment => Function Module_Name . In a report we can get this Function module name by calling a Function Module standard SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME. This function module at runtime calls the FM generated by smartform, which in turn is then used to pass data from the report to Smartform. In the report given below the FM generated is /1BCDWB/SF00000152 . In this FM we can see CONTROL_PARAMETERS in import tab. This is of type SSFCTRLOP. We need to set the GETOTF of this to be X. Setting this field will activate the OTF field in smartform.
In export tab of the FM generated by smartform we can see a parameter JOB_OUTPUT_INFO which is of type SSFCRESCL. The SSFCRESCL is a structure of having one of fields as OTFDATA. OTFDATA in turn is a table of type ITCOO. ITCOO has two fields TDPRINTCOM and TDPRINTPAR. TDPRINTCOM represents command line of OTF format data and TDPRINTPAR contains command parameters of OTF format data.
In every Smartform output in OTF format, TDPRINTCOM begins and ends with //. EP represents the end-of-page value for TDPRINTCOM field.
In addition we need to set few fields at the place where we call this FM(generated by smartform) in our program. While calling this FM we should set control_parameters, output_options, user_settings and job_putput_info fields as shown in program.
Once these settings are done we can call Function Module CONVERT_OTF to convert the OTF data of smartfrom output to PDF data format. Once these are done we can call method cl_gui_fronted_services=>file_save_dialog to specify the directory path where we want to save the output PDF file. After this we can call Function Module GUI_DOWNLOAD to download the PDF file on our local system.
Here is a sample code of program to perform the function.

Text and table structure getting jumbled up in the smartform output

Hi all ,
While viewing the print preview of a smartform output , i am facing a strange issue.
The hardcoded text is getting jumbled up .For eg:"As soon as possible" becomes " as possible . soon as"
The structure of the table is also getting reversed.That is the table is now getting displayed with the last couloum first.The data in the table is also coming in the reverse order.
While executing the smartform directly , the layout is coming in the proper order.But while executing this through a transaction (FINT) , this issue is coming up.The print program is a standard program.
I have tried deleting the window , copying it to a new smartform etc.I have also tried in different systems to check whether if it is an issue with the system.
If anyone has faced a similar issue , please let me know how to solve it.Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
Rashmi

Hi
Please check the Printout rather the print Preview. and also check the Structure/table entries also that u printing and also if u r using template, then check the assignment 1 of 1 , etc to the texts.
