  • Can we create Interactive forms only with ABAP & without using GP,  or Java

    Hi,
    I would like to know if we can create Interactive forms only with ABAP & without using GP or Java. We want to develop an offline solution using Interactive forms, but would like to use only ABAP for creating the forms. All the documents so far either refer to creating the forms, in reference to / in sync with: ISR (Service Requests), GP (General Procedures) or Java. Can this be done with ABAP alone?
    Regards,
    Ramesh

    Hello Ramesh,
    You should be able to create Adobe Interactive Forms using only the ABAP stack (without GP, Java, etc). Please refer to the thread below. Hope it helps.

    Hi,
    hard to tell because the error simply says that there is a class missing that is expected. If you are not using other beans in Forms, can you take out the Graph bean to see if your module runs without? If it does, then we know that the problem is related to the bean. If the Forms module still doesn't run then you would have to take out the next bean until eventually the error goes away. Starting from here you put think back in and see when th eproblem reoccurs. This helps you to narrow down the problem.

  • How to include logos in pdf forms??

    hi all,
    i am working with the pdf forms for the first time and dont yet kno the tricks of trade 
    can ne1 tell me how do i include graphic logo in the form?? here, i am referring to the logos we can access by TXN SE78 (the ones we use while working with SAPscripts and smartforms)
    thanks to all...

    Hi,
    some pointers -
    If it is a static logo, you can directly paste it. or else, you can give the link in the object pallette, or to my knowledge, there is an option in the context tab of the SFP transaction to bind an image to one ofthe fields to store the link.
    Hope these may help.
    Do update.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Logo in PDF form

    Moreever when we are clicking on URL ,its giving some standard url which we are not able to edit.

    Hi,
    In PDF, there are three ways of using a Graphic -
    1.     through context – using graphic reference
    2.     through context – using content
    3.     In layout – by copy and paste.
         Graphic content can be added to the form by adding the graphics in the transaction SE78 (also using the programme – ‘RSTXLDMC’). You store that in a variable and have that variable here.
    Graphics can also be uploaded through MIME repository.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Use of Adobe Intractive forms in SAP

    Hi All,
    I wanna make use of Adobe intractive forms in one application. when i use transaction SFP and click on the layout tab i get following error message.
    Could not start Layout Designer (see long text)
    Message no. FPUIFB086
    Diagnosis
    The forms design tool for developing the form layout could not be started; either it is not installed or there are errors in the installation.
    Procedure
    Make sure that you have the forms design tool installed on your desktop (the tool is part of the SAPGUI installation).
    Also read SAP Note 801524.
    I looked for the same issue on SDN and someone resolved it after installing 'SAP JAVA Stack' while some other resolved it by installing 'Adobe life cycle designer 8.0' .I raised an AHD for the same but CCD guyz say that there is nothing like that.
    Can anyone suggest solution for this if you have faced same issue.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    The same kind of issue was faced.
    The solution is:
    Installation of Adobe Life Cycle Designer.

  • Master Detail Java Form

    Where can i find any source code of master detail java form without using BC4J?

    Gawish,
    JSP and Applets are kind of exluding the other. If you don't like to use BC4J, you can use all kind of technologies like EJB or POJOs. ADF will work the same for the two technologies when building user interfaces. See otn.oracle.com/products/jdev for tutorials and how-to.

  • Upload a logo in the form builder

    Hi All,
      Could anybody tell me how to upload a logo in the form builder using tcode either pe50 or pe51.
    Regards,
    Srinivas.

    Hi Srinivas,
    You have to for a pre-printed stationary for the logo.
    I mean use the stationary which has logo already printed & then use form editor to print the data.
    For what purpose your using form editor?
    If your using for Payslip/Renumeration statement, then this is the only way. I had done the same thing, used pre-printed statinary containing logo on it.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Sarika.

  • WHY - give workable examples of using JHeadstart to convert forms into ADF.

    Why give examples of how to use JHeadStart to convert forms in to ADF, but not allow it to be done with the evaluation version ... I assume it was possible with the 10g versions. Is it broken in 11g.
    I was lookig to build a case for migrating an oracle forms application to Oracle Java and not a IBM or JBOSS or even .Net application, I can't build that case now, I have no budget to engage Oracle, have to do this of my own bat. Company has been take over by bigger company that has IBM stack.
    Is Oracle this follish to allow the smaller users of Oralce to go by the way side, be lost to other languages etc

    We deliberately did not include the Forms2ADFGenerator in the evaluation version.
    Modernizing your forms application, possibly migrating it to ADF is a considerable effort that is often underestimated.
    Migration tools like the Forms2ADFGenerator can help to a certain extent but are by no means a magic bullet. This is something we cannot stress enough, as over and over again we see people who think migration tools can make the difference. They cannot.
    If you want to make a choice of development environment to modernize your forms application, then the availability of a migration tool should not play a role!
    It is a fundamental and strategic decision to go for Oracle ADF which should not be influenced by a minor time saver like a migration tool.
    To decide on the use of JHeadstart, the evaluation version with the tutorial should be convincing enough.
    The real power of Jheadstart is not in the Forms2ADF Generator, this tool is just a lbonus that can save you a bit of time.
    Here is some more info:
    When does JHeadstart Forms2ADF Generator save time
    The amount of work that can be saved by using the JHeadstart Forms2ADF Generator (JFG) very much depends on the structure of the Oracle Forms application at hand. The JHeadstart Forms2ADF Generator provides most savings for forms that have the following characteristics:
    * Standard-Forms data retrieval and data manipulation through blocks based on database tables, with master-detail relations defined between the block
    * Complex user interface, many (stacked) canvasses, many tabs, many list of values, and other display types
    * PL/SQL logic mostly limited to user interface dynamics: conditionally showing/hiding user interface items, and conditionally changing the properties of user interface items. While JHeadstart does not convert PL/SQL logic, this type of logic is easily implemented in the ADF application because JHeadstart provides many declarative property settings to implement this behavior.
    PL.SQL Logic
    JHeadstart has made the deliberate choice to not automatically convert the PL/SQL logic to Java. The reasons for this are:
    * It is impossible to automate the migration of a two-tier architecture (logic in Forms or in the database) to a three tier Model-View-Controller architecture as is common in JEE web applications, including ADF-based applications.
    * The architecture of the converted application should be identical to the best-practice architecture of an ADF application that is build from scratch. If the architecture is the same, the same skill set can be used to maintain both migrated applications and ADF applications build from scratch. In addition, by going for a best practice architecture, the application is more flexible, and can be maintained easier at lower cost.
    * When using the JHeadstart Forms2ADF Generator, you get this best-practice ADF architecture that is identical to ADF/JHeadstart applications that are built from scratch.
    Other Forms2ADF Considerations
    And even if it turns out the JFG adds a lot of value, there are many other questions you should ask yourself before embarking on a Foms2ADF project.
    For example:
    * Apart from technical reasons like old Forms verisons no longer supported, are there real business reasons and business benefits for migrating that justify the migration effort?
    * To what extent is the application still meeting functional requirements?
    * Are there issues with stability and end user friendliness?
    * Old forms applications are typical "window-on-data" screens, you see the structure of the datamodel through the layout of the screens. Modern web 2.0 composite applications are more task-oriented with good support for human workflow. You should consider to what extent it wants to leverage all these new user interfaces capabilities that come with ADF Faces and WebCenter.
    * How does the application fits in the overall IT landscape? What interfaces to other systems exist, what (old/obsolete?) technology is used to implement those interfaces?
    * What about batch functionality and reporting facilities?
    * May be part of the functionality of the current system can be replaced with standard off-the-shelf software?
    * How sound, well structured and future proof is the underlying datamodel?
    * To what extent are you looking at service-orientated architectures? Whats the SOA maturity level of your organisation?
    * Above questions help to answer the key question: how desirable and benficial is it to migrate an old monolitic forms application 1:1 to a monolitic ADF aplication? How does that fit in overall IT strategy?
    * Organisational isues: who will migrate the system, who will maintain the system? Is outsourcing considered? etc.
    Next Steps
    We offer a Forms2ADF assessment service in which we migrate a number of sample forms selected by the customer to assess the added value of the JFG, and we discuss all of the above questions
    For example, I did one Forms2ADF assessment where it turned out that JFG added litlle or no value, but we were still able to convince the customer of the combined power of ADF and JHeadstart in (re-)building ADF apps from scratch.

  • Where to find and how to use JDAPI with oracle forms

    Hi All
    I want to use JDAPI for oracle forms, plz can any one suggest that where i can find the required jar for JDAPI, provide me if any links r there for downloading JDAPI.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi Torsten Kleiber
    I am interested in changing forms buttons in our existing forms .I was trying to find if it was possible.Going thru your post I realised it is possible to change properties in existing forms .
    i have specific questions with JDAPI will i be able to change my buttons in a form to Iconic buttons.
    Could you kindly send me the code of your class in the abovementioned post (I have created a simple class to modify some forms properties.)
    I would like to have alook at it i am a Novice in java but looking at your source code may be able to give myself a head start .(I am well versed pl/sql forms and reports NO JAVA idea)
    Two while trying out the oracle demo to create a form by jdapi I was able to create a class and was unable to execute it .What do i need to install to execute it. I have forms 10 installtion with Jinitiator 1.3 installed
    DO i need to install Jdeveloper or JDK i think either of this is required. I shall be highly be obliged if u can clear my queries or any one else in the forum may wish to add to 2cents to my infinetly minimal knowledge of java

    This is what you're looking for, there's no real cook-book -- though Amey mentioned there might be some material on SDN, perhaps some tutorials.
    You should be looking into com.sap.security.api.IUserFactory, methods newUser(String) which gives you and IUserMaint and commitUser(IUserMaint, IUserAccount) -- IUserAccount can be obtained using com.sap.security.api.IUserAccountFactory, method newUserAccount(String)

  • How to use LDAP with Oracle forms 10g on Oracle application server

    Hi,
    I need some help on this. I have developed oracle forms 10g on application server 9iAS. The client want to use the existing LDAP authentication to the software we wrote. I do not know how I could configure to use the existing LDAP authentication . If anyone know how would I use the existing LDAP on different server to use when they logon to our menu in 10g to validate the user. Do I need to add any varibales in formweb.cfg or any other method. Please help.
    Thanks
    Luksh

    I am not quite sure if this works out of the box. According to an Oracle FAQ:
    4.2 Can I use LDAP to authenticate Forms Services?
    Not directly. However, Oracle Login Server is able to authenticate against a LDAP directory and thus a Forms application can take advantage of this in a SSO environment. But you cannot use access control information stored in a LDAP directory with Forms.
