Standalone interactive Form-- initiate the GP process.

Dear Experts,
I am trying to initiate a GP process from a standalone offline interactive form on the click of a submit button.I have a few doubts:
1.It is documented that the standlone forms maintain a user session.How can i access the user information from the session?For e.g if i want to know the user ID of the person who submitted the form , how can i do that?I want to map the user submitting the form to the initiator of the process using some background object.
2. Also there's a requirement that default roles be assigned to all the processors of the actions.Can we override this somehow?
I'll appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Karambir Singh

Hi karambir,
Go thru the link below for info on using Java APIs for form Handling
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/34be0d89f01bcce10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm
Go thru the link below for accessing context paramter
(you can retrieve the templates form context structure as an instance of the com.sap.caf.eu.gp.exception.api.IGPStructureInfo interface, which represents the context parameters of a GP development object.)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/34be0d89f01bcce10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm

Point 2:
You can select the option "Override Default Roles at runtime" in the Role or Built-in Roles Tab (I dont remember where that option is ), that should help you deal with your second point.

Further i see the process is completed successfully when i see the flow and log and the out is present in the output response. Has any body faced this issue. What is that character that it is nto able to parse as the error says.
Thanks

"Could not initiate the BPEL process because the input xml is not well form

hi all,
i am new to BPEL and tring to create a BPEL WebServices. now i got struck up with one issue like below
"Could not initiate the BPEL process because the input xml is not well formed, the reason is : Error parsing envelope Please correct the input xml."
But according to BPEL compiler there are no errors in the design and deployment as well. when i tries to initiate the deployed WS i am facing the above issue.
can anybody help me to fix this issue. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Kalyan

hi' Kalyan,
The issue seems to be due to XSD file which you are importing while making the new BPEL process,
the XSD file is very sensitive even a simple upper case will create error, XSD file are many times used when you want
to pass some entries to be updated in the database.
use this XSD file:"discountflow.xsd"

elementFormDefault="qualified"

Interactive Forms - "Overdue or Erroneous Processes"

Hi,
I created an interactive form which starts a process upon submission. It is starting a process (I am receiving a success message from on the PDF form) but the process is falling into "Overdue or Erroneous Processes" category. I checked the logs to see if any exception is being thrown but found none. Why the process is falling into erroneous processes category? How can I find more information about this?
Thanks
Ram

Hi,
I assume that you have not set any due date which points to the past so the most likely explanation would be that the process transitions into an "error" state because a background step fails.
Of course, this is only possible if the first step is in fact executed by a background callable object.
To check this, you can also examine the process instance using the NetWeaver Administrator (NWA). To do so, enter http://<server>:<port>/nwa. The monitoring tool for GP can be found in "System Administration" -> "Monitoring" -> "Guided Procedures".
To select your process instance, choose a the tab "Process Instances". There you can filter for erroneous instances and it will be most easy to specify the user under which you have posted the form as the initator. You should then be able to examine your process instance and to see at which step exactly the process is hanging.
Kind regards,
Frank Schertel

Adda more pages to an Interactive Form and the binary context

Hi to all,
my scenario is: I have a java webdynpro with a view with an interactive form of 2 pages. I inserted a button on the pdf which duplicates the second page (using java script). Then there is the "submit to SAP" button which transfers the content of the binary context (I bound it to the pdfSource attribute of the interactive form) to an R/3 system. The fact is that when then I read the "binary" file from R/3, I find only the 2 pages and not the pages I added with my button.
How can I do? It's important for me the possibility of having more second pages.
Sorry for my english,
Thanks in advance
Enrico

Hi Enrico,
If I understand correctly, you are calling the addInstance() on click of the button that you placed in your form and when you add more pages using this button and save the fikle and open it again, the newly added instances are not displayed in the form. Am I right?
If this is the scenario, the you need to store the value of the forms created using this button and call the same addInstance() method in the initialize event of your form. I.e place the same code that is there in click event of the button inside the Initialize event of the form with the number that we have saved in some hidden field.
Hope this resolves your issue.
Cheers,
Arafat

Passing value from Adobe Interactive form, to the Webdynpro Application

Hi,
I have followed all the tutorials on interactive forms in WD for Java, & am able to successfuly display my context data in an interactive form.
However, i need help with the following:
1. Online scenario:
User has filled details in an interactive form & clicks on the submit button.
The Data from the form is NOT getting passed back to the WebDynpro application.
2. Offline Scenario:
User has filledup a pdf file(form), & has uploaded the form to the webdynpro application, using the file-upload UI element.
How do i read the data that the user has entered in that pdf file?
Any help with regard to these two queries, will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Hanoz

1) Online Scenario
check if the context mapping between UI elements and Context is properly done
check if the cardinality of the Context is alright.
2) Offline Scenario
you will have two views.
one upload view
and one interactive form view
in the upload view use the File Upload UI element.
in the Interactive Form View.... use the same view which you used to create the offline form, thus the interactive form UI element will already know the structure of data and the context mapping in the pdf file when you upload it.
Add the following line of code to the
method wdDoInit.
wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute
("pdfObject").getModifiableSimpleTyp
e();
Add the following line of code right
before
wdThis.wdFirePlugOutToDisplay()
in the method onActionShowForm().
wdThis.wdGetTravelRequestCompControl
ler().wdGetContext().currentContextE
lement().setPdfObject(wdContext.curr
entContextElement().getPdfObject());
in the interactive form view, change the property of the interactive form.... MODE to usePdf.

Standalone Interactive Forms without ABAP Dynpro and Drop down boxes

Friends,
I need to create Adobe interactive form with drop down boxes. I have 2 questions:
1) do i need to use abap dynpro to display the form or can i display the form using print program
2) for using drop down box, should i use the one from standard library or Web Dynpro ActiveX or Web Dynpro Native library
Points will be rewarded for helpful answers.
Thanks.

Hi,
Its not necessary to have ABAP web Dynpro to create and display adobe forms. You can display it in programs in ABAP. Go to following link to know more:
[https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/adobe#section39]
There is a sample application for Adobe form in ABAP and lot more.
You can use web dynpro Native dropdown list.
Hope it will help you.

Read values from Adobe Interactive Form inside the webdynpro

Hello,
I have problems to read the values of the fields inside de adobe. I read an article on saptechincal that told:
You can see the Adobe form that we have designed, enter the data as shown below and press the submit button. (As I said earlier an activex control will be installed on to the client machine, you can see the activex control in the internet explore go to the menu: ToolsàInternet optionsàgo to the programs tab àPress button Manage add-ons.
You can see an activex control named u2018SAP ACFu2019, if you donu2019t have this control you will not see this page: Note you need to have adobe acrobat reader 7.1 installed, I have used version 9, the activex control was not working properly so down graded my adobe reader to 7.1)
This is true ??? I have the Acrobat reader 9.3 and i saw that also have the SAP ACF installed.
The value of the property displaytype on adobe interactive form on webdynpro is activeX or native.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Thank you for the answer.

I change the value of the attribute but again i can read anything from the adobe form. So let me explain what i'm doing.

Objective: I have to create one webdynpro with an adobe interactive form for create new clients on r/3 system.

1. I create de the view with 2 elements an interactive form and one submit button.

2. Create the context of the view with the following tree:

> context (node)

 > ADOBE_DATA (node)

 > Clients (from KNA1 table) (node)

 > KUNNR

 > LAND1

 > NAME1

 > ORTO1

 > TELF1

>PDF_SOURCE

3. Complementing the properties of the interactive form:
datasource = clients node of the context
displaytype = native
pdf_source = pdf_source attribute of the context
templatesource = name of the form

4. Create the form, and add the data source to the interface of the form

5. On the form bulider i add and subform on the hierarchy tab and the all the fields of the interface to the form and
automatically the value of the fields are binding.

6.Add a submit button from web dynpro native and add the event click to the button. Then i change the value of the layout type and save e activate the form and the interface

7. The next step is create an action for the button submit for the event "onSubmit". So i create the function and start coding this code:

DATA: adobe_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,

 client_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,

 client_element TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,

 client TYPE if_create_client=>element_clients.

*Get reference to the adobe_data node from the context

adobe_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_adobe_data ).

*Get reference to the clients node from the context

client_node = adobe_node->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_clients ).

*Get element node

client_element = client_node->get_element( ).

*Get the values from the form

client_element->get_static_attributes(

 IMPORTING

 static_attributes = client ).

8. Then for finalize i add the view to the window and crate a web dynpro application and put one break point on the submit function event.

9. Activate and test the application and when the program try to add a reference to the element node always returning a null reference and the application dumped.

So please help with this situation i can't understand what is the mistake.

PS: Now i have installed the acrobat reader 7.0.8

The PDF is being populated by getting the data from the back end.Now my problem is that I need to open this PDF in an external window.
Earlier I have embed this interactive form in a view and the view contains the PDF, now the PDF should be opened in a external window and does be in the view.
So I thought of saving the file into the src/mimes/components and then call the PDF on file download.
Can you help me in this issue.

Saving the interactive adobe for as readonly or non-interactive form

Hi,
I want to save the interactive form in the final submission as non ineractive or readonly.Though i could able to save the form as pdf but the form is editable.Can any one suggest solutions for this.
Thanks in advance.
Dev

hi,
that should be easy.
make a Context attribute <xxx> of type "boolean"
GOTO
interactive form->properties ->enabled
there instead of choosing "true" or "false", you can bind it to a context attribute.(click on ...)
By default make the context "true" so that it is enabled.
at some particular event when you want it to be disabled. set the bound context to "false".
this should help.
regards,
-ag.
