Table footer issue in body page of adobe form

Form has 1 master page and 1 body page. Body page has table within which there is a footer header and detail (2 footers) in the form. My intention is to make footer (both the footers) appear in the last page of the form. For most of the scenarios, footer is displayed at the last page or if it has only 1 page to display, it shows in the first page itself.
But issue arises when number of rows reaches the maximum length of body page. Let's say, body page can accommodate 11 rows, then footer header is displayed in 1st page but footer detail is shown in next page (2nd page). I want to show both of these in the last page with 11th record in the last page without any break.
I've tried below options:
1. Group both footers as a section and check "Include footer row in final page" in pagination tab.
2. Mark both the footers individually with check "Include footer row in final page" in pagination tab.
Is there any other option that I need to look for to solve this issue?

Thank you Norbert. That solved the problem.
I've one more question relating to this. Let's say I can only display 11 records in one page with these 2 footer. For 12 records, 2nd page shows last record with these 2 footers. 10 records will be displayed in one page properly. But when it comes to 11 records, 1st page shows all of 11 records and 2 footers with a page header will be shown in 2nd page. Is there a way to control this dynamically so that whenever 11th record needs to be shown, even though body page(or subform) can accommodate 11 records, show the 11th in 2nd page with footers?
Thanks,
Phani

Table Overflow - Page Break - Multiple tables in Body page in Adobe forms

Hi,
I have to do a payslip in Adobe forms. I am using only Adobe for print forms.
Please redirect me to correct category if this is wrong category.
I am customizing standard form PYXXFO_SAP_PAYSLIP_IN01. (payslip for india through hrforms)
The standard form is entirely positional. So, if the contents of the table overflow, they are overwritten on the contents below.
So, I have to make corrections to adjust the payslip for table overflows.
My changes:
1. There are total 8 tables in form. I created content areas for each of them and assigned the subforms/tables to those content areas.
2. I converted the body page from positional to flowed, and applied the related pagebreak settings.
The problem I am facing:
When the earnings table overflows, the rest of the content is displayed on second page, in a continuous manner.
eg.
The structure of the form is:
Header details
earnings table   deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
now, if the earnings table overflows -
page 1:
Header details
earnings table (page break)
Page2:
(continued)earnings table
page3:
(continued)earnings table   deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
In this, the deduction table and form16 table is shown on 3rd page. I wish to show them on the first page as they have not overflown.
I am sure, I am missing something very small, but I am unable to understand what.
I tried all the possible combinations.
Does the main subform needs to be "positional"?
They way I expect it is:
page 1:
Header details
earnings table (page break)    deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
Page2:
{Header details - It would be great if I could have this}
(continued)earnings table
page3:
{Header details}
(continued)earnings table
Also, If this is successful, I would like to apply the same feature to rest 6-7 tables.

This was a duplicate question.
Kindly remove this thread if possible.
The solution for this thread is as follows:
I was sort of hoping that there should be some standard functionality available for this, it being Adobe, but there is not.
So, I had to run a work around. Quite a lengthy one.
What the problem was:
I needed to print around 4-5 tables adjacent to each other in single page and in verticals. What Adobe does is: it fills 1st table, then 2nd then 3rd and so on. So, if there is a page break due to large entries in the adobe, the contents breaks with rest of the tables being blank, but the content being filled sequentially.
What I did was:
I created a grand table with the structure having all the tables embedded in it. eg.
data: begin of grand_table occrs 0,
table_A type table_a_table_type,
table_B type table_b_table_type,
table_c type table_c_table_type,
end of grand_table.
Hence, I could include all the data in a one single grand table, and put the data in sequential manner.

Conditional Master & body page in Adobe Forms

Hi,
I have an existing Master and body page in my PDF Form. Based on some value appearing in the internal table, I need to display another Master(with only Content area) and Body page. So in my case I have created two master and two body pages. Only if I get a value in some field in the internal table of Body page2, I need to display the master page2 & Body page2. Else, my master page2 & body page2 should not be displayed.
Is this scenario possible?
Thanks in advance.

Subtotal in Table Footer Appears in Body on the Next Page - Smartform

Hi experts,
I have a subtotal row in my table footer. It works find (appears correctly for each page). But when I check the body of the table, in page 2, there is a line with the subtotal amount from page 1, appearing in line 2. Do you guys know why does this happen and how to solve it?
Thanks,
Sam

Hi Sam,
1. Can you cross check whether you have coded anything which will modify the internal table content with the subtotal value?
2. Did you keep any condition like printing the sub total at each new value for a particular field
(Eg: If there is a field f1 in your internal table with values a, a, a, b, b, b, d, d, d - is there any condition to print sub total when f1value changes from a to b or b to d ? )

Header and Footer in not displaying correctly on each page in Adobe Forms

Hi experts,
   I need your little help on Adobe Form. I have develop a customer account statement and facing problem.
     In header and footer part I have to display customer address. It is ok if data is of one page. But when data is overflowing, customer address is showing only at first page in header, and not displaying address neither in header nor in footer(footer section will print on last page, it may be either first page or third page ) on other pages. (Address is table type data )
       Header and footer Section address has been designed on Master Page.
Please help me to resolve these two problems as soon as possible.
Regards
Piyush

I found this post which I hope helps:
This can be done by bit of tweaking using JavaScript.
Actually the problem was, the header was printing continuously in subsequent pages and once the header data was over the rest of the pages contained blank header. But we need have to print same header for each group of items till that group of items finish in the specific page. And for new group of items different header will be filled and so on.
So to overcome this issue, create the item table in such a way that the header data is also included in the item table for each group of items. In the layout, select your header field and the event READY LAYOUT and write the below JavaScript code. This event is called for each page for that header field, so you can directly map the item table value and put it in your header field.
// Get the current page
var currpage = xfa.layout.page(this);
// variable to store number of fields in that page.
var fields = 0;
// Get the number of fields
        fields = xfa.layout.pageContent(currpage-1, "field", 0);
// Loop on each field on the page
        for ( i=0; i<= fields.length-1; i++ )
// Check if the field is in the item table column (it will be actually header data column in your item table)
            if ( fields.item(i).name == "TL" )
// Fetch that value and store in your header field.
                       this.rawValue = fields.item(i).rawValue;

Table footer printed in next page without upper border line

Hi Experts
I am faceing a problem regarding printing of smartform. I have 2 tables under one LOOP control, TABLE2 and TABLE1 respectivelity. TABLE2 display the Header data and TABLE1 displays the Item data under Main window.
TABLE2 has no ROWs under table Footer section. TABLE1 has footer and I want to print the TABLE1 footer according to the page size, for that I have added a Folder under TABLE1 footer section and then create the line type under that Footer, also check the Page Protection check box. I manage to print the Footer in next page according to the page size but when the Footer goes to next page for printing the upper line border of Footer section is not dislayed.
Please give some tips or example, how to manage the Footer at print time.

Hi,
Yes your problem is common because of two different line types while you are selecting the pattren the
pattern is assuming that the pattern is selected for the entire two line types.
solutions are
1). Use same line type for both footer and item
2). create a window with a template and copy the same for both the pages and put a check box
in the conditons of your window as only after end of main window.
3). Create windows with the lines you required with the postions(but not advisible because page numbers or line items lenghts are dynamic) .

Problem with next page in Adobe Form

Hi all .
I only start work with Adobe Forms so I need your help .
My form includes table .
My problem : only the first page with data is displayed and I don't see the rest of data .
What I need to define in SFP (program ? ) for get all my data printed ?
Regards Helena .

Hello
That is a well known bug/ feature. In SFP transaction use the tab Layout instead of the button layout. The form will be opened. Open the Font/ paragraph window, place it where you want (between the other palletes so you can see everything you need) and jump back to SFP/ close the form. Now you can open the full-screen layout using the button and the font window will work for you. Regards Otto
p.s.: Of course you´re welcome with your questions here:

Balance carry forward at end of page in adobe forms

Hello all,
I am new to adobe forms.
I have a table with data with amount column. when the content of the table flows to next page i need to get balance carry forward and page to total and same at next page top as below
I got to know we need to write script to get this but I don't know script in adobe form.
So kindly help me.
Regards
ujwal

Hi Ujwal,
You're script could be handled something like this:
if(xfa.layout.pageCount() > 1){
var page = xfa.layout.page(this) - 1;
var fields = xfa.layout.pageContent(page, "field");
var total = 0;
for(var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++)
var item = fields.item(i);
if(item.name == "CARRYFORWARD")
total = total + item.rawValue;
this.rawValue = total;
I'm not sure what your technical name for the carry forward value is so I made one up in the sample. Also, I have used this in one form but at line 02 I had to use -2 instead of -1 for my form even though the scripting help gives -1 as an example. This will simply check if there is more than one page and if so then it will look back at the previous page to get the value of any field named CARRYFORWARD.

Ryan Crosby

Repeating subform on each page in Adobe Forms

Hello all,
I created an Adobe Form, where the body is splitted in subforms (all flowed).
But now, I want that the first subform must be showed on each page on the Adobe Form. A masterpage cannot be used, because soms field have no data and are not showed on the PDF.
Does anyone know how the first subform of the body can repeat on each page?
Kind regards,
Pieter

Florian,
I already tried in Javascript for initialize and from.ready methods..
Now, I tested in Formcalc but the output is the same.
Page 1:
On the next pages:
So, on all the next pages a white space still appears..
Kind regards,

Issue While printing / Previewing a Adobe form in Web Dynpro ABAP application

Dear All,
We have designed 4 different adobe forms using SFP transaction for 4 different countries in SAP system.
Every country have different terms and conditions and therefore we have placed static texts (Hardcoded text) with text in different styles. Some text is in bold, some in different font (Bold, Italic). Font and Paragraph settings of the text was done as per expected. All the forms have same font and paragraph settings.
When we Launch Web Dynpro ABAP application to open the form in Print preview or to take print, form is not getting displayed / printed as it is designed in SFP. But if you open the form in SFP, everything looks fine.
It is working fine for 3 different forms but problem with only 1 form.
Kindly guide what is the reason for this strange issue when previewed or taken print. It is very urgent.
Thanks,
Bharath.K

Dear All,
Thanks for your responses.
We had identified the reason.
Customer has provided terms and conditions for all 4 countries in PDF document. Along with PDF, for 3 out of 4 countries customer has shared pre-prepared word document with pre aligned and justified terms and conditions as per expected outcome. We copied this text from word to Adobe form layout. It worked fine. For 1 country, customer have not shared terms and conditions in word document. Therefore we had copied text directly from adobe PDF document in to Form layout. Then this issue happened.
Solution for this issue is to, prepared a word document with expected alignment and justification of terms and conditions text . Then copied from word to adobe livecycle designer form layout. It worked fine.
Thanks,
Bharath.

I have created an text module of type include text in Adobe form context. the text which has to be bold is not being displayed as bold and the line space after first paragraph is being skipped out and the 2nd paragraph is being displayed as the continuation of the first. The out put looks as below

I tried Styles using SE72 on the SO10 text. And I cannot assign smartform styles on SO10 text in Adobe forms.
Greatly appreciate your suggestions and solutions.
