Submit Interactive Form using button on Wed Dynpro page instead of in PDF

Say I've a Web Dynpro page with an interactive form embedded. Is it possible to have on the page an HTMLB button, when clicked, submit the interactive form to an iView on EP? I haven't found any tutorials showing something like this. Please advice. Basically I need to make this adobe form/web dynpro app interact with the portal (passing the completed form to the portal)? any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks again.

Hi Mick,
I don't get your exact requirements.
What i get is, you want submit to SAP button outside the adobe forms and on the webdynpro page.
Yes, you can do this thing. Whenever webdynpro page has any events at that time whatever the values on the adobe form are reflected into the node which you have bound with the Interactiveform UI element.
So, you can place your button outside adobe form also.
Now, for "submit the interactive for to an iView or EP" I can't get exactly what you want. But i can say that you can manipulate your adobe form in code using pdfObject.
Check the SAP tutorial for manipulating pdfObject.
Regards,
Bhavik

F4 help in online interactive forms using ABAP

Hi,
Question 1:
I am able to get f4 help in online interactive form using ABAP. but after selecting the value from pop-up the value is not populated in PDF field. Can u help regardiing this.
Question 2:
I am able to get f4 help in online interactive form using value help dropdown, first time if i click the dropdown button it is showing the popup, if i click second time it is not showing the popup.
Thanks & Regards,
Krishna

Hi,
1. I you are woking from the Web Dynpro for ABAP then after binding the Context variable in the view, and in the Adobe Layout Designer from the Library goto WebDynpro Native Tab and drag and drop the Value Help and for this automatically JavaScript is being generated, go that script and edit the line
Var fieldname = "yourfieldname";
Note: dont forget to link the context attribute to search help. ie. in the context properties of the attributes select the input help mode as dictionary search help and specify the name of the search help present in data dictionary.
And now go to Utilities and click on u201CInsert Web Dynpro Scriptu201D.
Also make sure that you specify the Layout as ZCI Layout in the Propertioes of the Adobe Form.
2. Only the Submit button , the Enumerated Drop-Down List as well as the Value help button from the Web Dynpro Native library of Adobe LiveCycle Designer are supported. Check SAP Note: 1098009

Create offline interactive forms using webdynpro java with XML data source

Hi Gurus,
I am having a scenario like below:
Sales guy request for order list online from portal- Sytem receives the request and creat XML file- from xml file need to create a Offline interactive form-Sales guy fills it offline at customer site- uploads in portal -on submit xml has to be generated with captured data at customer site-Process to ECC.
So my questions are:
How to create the offline interactive form from XML?
Once filled offline interactive form uploaded into portal how to create XML again from pdf ?
Please give some idea on this as this is my first Offline interactive form using XML datasource.
Thanks
Ravi

Hi Otto,
Sorry for replying lately. First of all I did not get your suggestions as your are editing the same posting.
Secondly we will be using WDJ. Actually in between SAP Portal and ECC we are having adobe LCES so we need to create Interactive form using XML only. Once it is filled again the form will be submitted to another application which is running on FLEX, which will process the order.
if you can give me your personal id i can send you the detailed process
Thanks
Ravi

Problem with interactive forms using ABAP

Hi all,
    I am trying to create an interactive adobe form using ABAP in ECC 6.0. But while execute the form, it is creating an error saying that
Exception       SYSTEM_ERROR
Message ID:          FPRUNX                     Message number:           001
Message:
ADS: The render error log file has been written to D:\u(200101)
But i was able to create adobe interactive form using WebDynpro and its working perfectly. But the problem is while using ABAP method.
Do anyone have an idea why its happening?
Thanks and Regards,

Hi
Interactive Forms based on Adobe software is SAP's new solution for forms development. Its first release has the focus on interactive use of forms. High-volume printing is supported in principle, but - being a new solution - the performance has not yet reached the same level as Smart Forms or SAPscript, two established solutions that had years to grow. Interactive Forms is the only solution that will continue to be enhanced with new features, while SAPscript and Smart Forms will be supported without limitations.
When (or if) to move to Interactive Forms depends on your requirements. For interactive forms usage, i.e. the new functions, you have no choice, as the existing solutions don't support it. High-volume print scenarios need to be carefully analyzed to see whether your concrete requirements can be met at this point.
However, it is possible to move to Smart Forms and design your forms in such a way that a migration at any point in the future would be but a small step. Smart Forms offers from Web AS 6.40 a migration wizard to Interactive Forms. Technically, everything can be migrated, but we recommend against things like ABAP program nodes, for example.
You are not forced to ever go to Interactive Forms if you don't want to. It really depends on whether your client needs any of the new features in Interactive Forms. Also, if they are currently working with JetForms, they could enquire with Adobe directly what migration path they offer to the joint solution.
It is impossible to make a blanket statement on what needs to be done in each of the applications using a form for output. Despite the same underlying technology, forms handling has always been a decision for each SAP application: Some do it through customizing, some through coding, some in yet anither way.
What I CAN say from a technology pespective is that all applications are in the process of creating their forms based on Interactive Forms so that by 2007 pretty much all SAP forms will be PDF-based. Obviously, each application does it within the framework of their application - but they all use Interactive Forms.
By the way, be aware that in ERP 2004 this forms solution is subject to a limitation for high-volume printing scenarios as we cannot ensure that ALL customers will be content with the performance in ALL scenarios with this release. (see SAP Note 863893).
To get an overview idea about Adobe forms ,
Using SFP , first you need to create a interface . in interface you can declare the import and export parameters and also the declaration part, coding etc : This is nothing but similar to Function module interface.
And now we have to create the Form which is interactive. Create the form and enter the interface name which you have created in first step, so that the parameters , declarations of fields etc : will be copied and available in the form layout. So that you can drag and drop these declared fields ( dclared fields of interface ) to the layout.
Create the context and layout in the form.
The layout generated can be previewed and saved as PDF output.
Now we need to integrate the driver program and the PDF form to get the final output as per the requirement.
On activating and executing the form you will get a function module name just similar to smartforms.
The driver program needs to call this FM.
Refer to the below sample code :
DATA : is_customer TYPE scustom.
DATA : it_bookings TYPE ty_bookings.
DATA : iv_image_url TYPE string.
DATA : iv_sending_country TYPE adrc-country.
DATA : it_sums TYPE TABLE OF flprice_t.

Missing code in "Offline Interactive Forms Using ABAP" SDN document?

I am trying to build a sample offline form scenario using the code published in the SDN document "Offline Interactive Forms Using ABAP" written by Vani Krishnamoorthy. Everything works perfectly up to the point where we instantiate the PDF Object to extract the data from the form. Then there seems to be some code missing just before we call the method SET_DOCUMENT. We are supposed to export the parameter pdfdata = pdf_data , but I cannot find where pdf_data variable is declared or assigned. Also, an ENDTRY statement seems to be missing.
Has anyone had success with Vani's offline scenario, and if so, do you know what code is missing, if any?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

I found the missing code in sample program FP_PDF_TEST_06. Everything works well now.
The PDF file that was uploaded from the PC first needs to be converted from binary to XSTRING before you can create the PDF object:
data: lt_rawtab type standard table of raw255,
        g_pdfdata type xstring,
        l_len type i.
call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload
    exporting
      filename                = l_filename
      filetype                = 'BIN'
    importing
      filelength              = l_len
    changing
      data_tab                = lt_rawtab   "PDF file (binary)
    exceptions
      file_open_error         = 1
      file_read_error         = 2
      etc. etc.
Convert binary tab to Xstring
call function 'SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING'
    exporting
      input_length = l_len
    importing
      buffer       = g_pdfdata              "converted to Xstring
    tables
      binary_tab   = lt_rawtab
    exceptions
      failed       = 1
      others       = 2.

Testing WebDynpro Adobe Interactive forms Using eCATT or any other testing

Hi All,
We are testing WebDynpro Adobe forms (Java). is there any methodology to test Interactive forms not normal webdynpro applications. Especially Interactive form with UI fields like dropdwons, datepickers dropdown values are from BAPI/RFC's in these forms we will perfom actions like send data to backend and display PO created in onther view.
once we repaly the test script all the drop down values are not updated this test scenario we tested with LR.
Is there any procedure to test this scenario using eCATT or any other testing Tool.
Rehards,

Hi Vara,
You can develop Interactive forms using WD ABAP also.
[E Learning- Interactive Forms using WD ABAP|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/media/uuid/c766e918-0b01-0010-99b1-c2b78cd059b3]
WD Java is useful in case, when your ABAP system is less than ECC 6.0. Otherwise you can achieve same functionalities in WD ABAP also.
Hope this will help you.

How can I get a pdf. to open in Safari, all i'm getting is a new window with a black, blank page, instead of the pdf., and I don't want to save the file to the desktop, Safari didn't use to do that, and I don't have Adobe in the internet plug in folder.

Web dynpro with adobe interactive forms and button submit

Hi,
I'am new with webdynpro and adobe interactive forms so i just trying some example with an adobe interactive form with a submit button event handler inside the webdynpro. But i can't catch the event handler submit that i creaate on onSubmit property of the interactive form.
Can anyone help please.
Thank you very much.

I think I understand but just to make it clear. I use texts created using function module "SAVE_TEXT". In my Web Dynpro I select one or more of them and use the button "insert text" (with appropriate functionality behind it) to insert them to specified location in my PDF form opened in this Web Dynpro. Considering what you said it is not possible to replace this "insert text" button by drag and drop functionality. Am I correct?
Btw great job with the book "Next Generation ABAP Development" Thomas!

Somehow i can't trigger as it state that " Device Offline ". I have check that the wi-fi is enabled and is able to connect to the internet & intranet. I also use the browser in the pocket pc to browse the WSDL file and it able to load the XML code. Anyone can shed some light on this? Thanks

Dropdown List in Adobe Interactive Form Using Webdynpro ABAP

Hi Pals,
In my scenarion I need to list the Rating Code in the Dropdown list box of the Interactive Form.
Form Created by using SFP transaction
Not XML Schema interface
Passing the values to the Form by using the default function module that which created automatically while creating the Form
Am binding the Field and also binding for the list Item. Even though the values are not listing.
$record.sap-vhlist.<Field name>\.DATA\.FIELD.item[*]
I have followed the above format , but no use ...
Field Name : rating_code
$record.sap-vhlist.RATING_CODE\.DATA\.FIELD.item[*]
Field Name : value
$record.sap-vhlist.VALUE\.DATA\.FIELD.item[*]
but it is not working for me, will appreciate if some one really help me to fix this.!!!!
Thanks & Regards
Andy.

For the form buttons to work on-line in your WebDynpro app, you need to change the PDF form to be Dynamic:
     if(firstTime){
          // We need to set the PDF to be Dynamic, for the form JavaScript code to work
          IWDPDFDocumentInteractiveFormContext pdfContext =
          WDPDFDocumentFactory
          .getDocumentHandler(wdThis.wdGetAPI(), "InteractiveForm")
          .getDocumentContext();
          pdfContext.setDynamic(true);
In this code segment, "InteractiveForm" is the UI id.
I was able to get that far, but I although I add subforms dynamically via javascript, the mapped WebDynpro context node doesn't pick up any new elements.
ie: if I start with two WD context elements (0..n) cardinality, then add a third via the form JavaScipt button, I see changes only in the two context elements when I submit. A third context element isn't created or populated.

Editing online interactive forms using Acrobat XI Pro

Our organization recently purchased Adobe Acrobat XI Pro in hopes of using it to create and convert many of our forms to electronic format. We recently tried opening an existing online interactive form to edit it and it says "This form cannot be edited in Acrobat. Please use Adobe LiveCycle Designer to edit this form". Did we purchase the wrong product for what we are trying to do? I'm in panic mode because we are very new to this type of editing and I hope we didn't purchase the wrong thing. Any suggestions?

There are two kinds of PDF forms: Acrobat forms and LiveCycle Designer
forms. The latter are actually XML files and can only be edited in
LiveCycle Designer, which used to be bundled with Acrobat Pro but is not
any more. If your forms were created in LCD then you need to purchase that
application as well if you want to edit them.

Online interactive form using ABAP

Is it possible to create an ABAP program for Online Interactive form (NW 2004)? or do we need ABAP Webdynpro (NW 2004s)?
We have implemented an offline scenario i.e. create an interactive PDF, fill the forms, save it, upload it and extract information from PDF. It is working fine. But we are not able to implement online interactive scenario.
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Pranav

While SAP certainly does not recommend to create interactive scenarios from transaction SFP (please use Web Dynpro for such scenarios), it is not entirely correct to say that it is not possible.
The issue we see is that SFP was created for output forms, i.e. "one way out of the system" (to print etc.). Interactive Forms is based on XML, which means that in ABAP you need to convert the ABAP structures to XML for generation of the PDF on the ADS, and - in interactive scenarios - on the return trip you need to convert the XML (in the PDF) back to ABAP structures. The conversion from ABAP to XML and vice versa is done in the background automatically by the Web Dynpro environment, which is why we recommend it for interactive use. There is no automatic back conversion in SFP, i.e. you'd need to handcode this - which means additional cost and potential for error.
Hope this helps,
Markus
and, thanks, Eddy, for pointing out that the FAQs need an update...
