Any system setting we need to do!
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,

How to use address node in smart forms

hii all,
can any one tell me how to print the address usin the address node in smartforms....pls explain me in detail...
thank you.

Hi Neelima,
Create a Address Node to print the addres of particular object like vendor, customer, plant, company address etc...
for example vendor address
To Print the address, you need to declare a variable VENDOR_ADRNR TYPE ADRNR in Form interface Import Parameters.
Get the Vendor Address Number from LFA1 Table and pass the value to the form interface parameter when you call the smartform function module in the print program.
Pass this to Address number &VENDOR_ADRNR& in the address number field, then the system will get the address of the vendor automatically.

Using alternative option in SMART forms

hi,
I have a quick question about using the alternative window in Smartforms.
When the condition mentioned is true, all the objects/windows under the true will be executed. However, when the condition is false nothing gets done. I would expect all the objexcts in the False category to get executed. Can anyone reason this out.
Regards,
Diwakar

the situation is as follows:
If v_x = 'Del' the title of the report needs to be as "Delivery Note", else it needs to be as "Invoice".
So, after coding the condition using the alternative option, i have placed two text elements each under true and false. If V_x is 'Del' i see the title delivery note in the report. however, if i chaneg the value of v_x, i am not able to see 'invoice ' as the title. The output is blank.

Amount in Words using SPELL_Amount in Arabic Smart-forms

I am facing the difficulty during the step in smartform printing. Client is to have a printout in Bi-lingual (english+arabic), Arabic is printing fine. The maintenance language of smartform is arabic.
Problem arises:
I am using the function SPELL_AMOUNT to get the "Amount in Words" of Gross Value. In the print preview and printout, "Amount is words" are appearing as jumbled. for example,
Gross Value 238,476.00 SAR
Expected Amount in Words Two Hundred Thirty-Eight Thousand Four hundred Seventy-Six.
Appearing Amount in Words Seventy-Six Two Hundred Thirty-Eight Thousand Four Hundred.
Waiting for your valuable inputs.

Hi,
Try the below code:
Pass the amount after Decimal to the Spell amount seperately and then concatenate the two parts of the amount.
For example : 30.60 USD
Store the amount in a character string. Split the string at decimal point using a SPLIT statement.
DATA: amount_total(10),
round(7),
dec_part(3).
DATA: dec(1) TYPE c VALUE '.',
amount_total = '30.69'.
SPLIT amount_total AT dec INTO round dec_part.
First pass variable 'round' to Spell_amount and then in the second call pass variable 'Dec_PART' and concatenate the two results.

sirisha.

Smart form where used list

Hi All,
I want to change a smart form interface, before that I have to know where used list of this smart form but I can't. Could any one tell me how I can see the where used list of smart form.
thanks in advance
chetan vishnoi

Hello,
the previous suggestions won't work because smartforms are usually used with a dynamic function call.
I have the following suggestions:
1) Go to SE37 and display the where-used list of function SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME. Now find the entries where input parameter FORMNAME equals the name of your smartform.
2) Change the interface of the smartform such that it is still compatible to the previous version, i.e. all new parameters are optional. If you want to change the type of a parameter, create a new parameter instead. You could then alter the coding in the following way:
IF NOT parameter_old IS INITIAL.
MESSAGE 'Interface has changed' TYPE 'E' RAISING ERROR_OCCURRED.
ENDIF.

Text issue in Smart form

Hi All,
I have an Custom smart form, and under the pages and windows i have 2 Pages First Page and Next page.
The First Page next page is set as Next Page and the second page next page is also set as Next page.
Now when the Smart form is displayed in the PDF Format then only the first page Header comes in the proper way but the 2nd , 3rd and so on pages depending upon the data the Headers are all coming as an Junk text (Not some other language but the overlapping of characters).
The Header texts are all in the Table in the header field and also some texts are dynamically populated by the OTR and some are static.
I am not sure why is this happening can any one give me some inputs?
Regards,
Dipu

Exactly thats what i am using now but want to know whether is it possible by using TEXT instead of creating Graphics node.
In graphics we can use both .bmp as well as .tif files but not text.So what is the solution of using TEXT Ids in Smart forms.
Thanks for all your answers but still i didn't get the solution to my problem.

How to Print Digital Signature in Smart forms.

Hi Experts,
Any one please help me how to use digital signatures in SMARTFORMS.?
Which are the tables used to store digital signatures and please any one have any demo program which prints the the digital signature using smartforms kindly let me know.
Thanks,
Sunil kairam.

Hi Sunil,
After doing some research in sdn and other sources i found the following result...
Digital Signatures are nothing but graphics that we can store in SAP and use in our Smart Forms.
For Example you can create a .bmp file of your signatures, upload it via SE78, and then use it in your Smart Forms in your Footer Area as "Authorized Signatory".
The Logic in the Print Program can be something as follows -
1. Maintain a Z Table having fields like PLANT, FORMID (Name of the SmartForm), USERID.
2. Before calling the Form, the validation is made for the Logged in User with the Z Table created.
3. If the User Entry exists in the Z-Table, the Form is called and the Signature Image is displayed in the Footer Block i.e. the Authorized Signature.
4. If user entry does not exist in the Z-Table then the message is displayed "You are not the Authorized for Printing the Form" and exits the Transaction.

Smart form - Long text in all the items?

Hello gurus,
We are using something similar to smart form (I don't know the exactly name, like pretty form).
So, we are using a long text in the "Item text" by item.
Sometimes the item can be more than 20 lines in the "Item text" as long text and sometimes not.
Example: I have a PO with 4 items:
Item 1 - Without Item text.
Item 2 - With 20 lines in the Item text
Item 3 -With 1 line in the Item text
But, when the PO is printed, the PO form has to all the items 20 lines by item.
That's mean that if in the first item I don't have item text, the first item is showed with a very long space in blank (space of 20 lines).
The secont item is showed correctly.
The third item has one line wrote and 19 lines in blank, like a long space in blank.
How we can manage this situation in the format?
How we can program these spaces to see in the format to the first item without the space in blank and to the third item only 1 item and the other 19 lines without being shown?
Can you help me please a.s.a.p.?
Thanks for your time and I will wait the answer.
Regards,
Sandra Palomo

SAPscript and Smart Forms - Going to be phased out?

Thus far, are SAPscript and/or Smart Forms going to eventually be retired? Is there an official document, or Note that says so? I've exhaustively searched through these forums, and the SMP for the PAM and Notes, but I can't find a reference anywhere that will tell me.
I did find where it says:
"Customers can continue to use existing SAP forms solutions such as Smart Forms and SAPscript.
Both solutions will continue to be supported in their current functional scope."
Just want to make sure with my clients.
Thanks!

Hello,
We recently rolled out an SAP's Strategy as far as forms development is concerned.
Here is the official statement:
"The SAP forms strategy is based on SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe (IFbA). This applies to both print and interactive forms. In this context, most Business Suite solutions have already been converted to the IFbA technology (more than 2300 forms), and new standard SAP forms will be created using IFbA instead of Smart Forms or SAPscript.
SAPscript and Smart Forms shall continue to be supported inline with SAP's maintenance strategy, thereby ensuring the ability to protect existing customer investment."
You can also find this on the Smart Forms page in SDN: Smart Forms Overview

Triggering a smart form from User exit

Hi Gurus,
I need to trigger a smart form from a user exit.
The tcode name is COR1.there is a exit for this tocde.
This exit should be used to trigger the smart form.
User exit to be executed upon saving the Process order number.
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: vinay raj on Apr 13, 2009 9:38 AM

Hi,
You can write a Custom program i.e. the driver program for your smart form.
And submit that program in the exit. i.e. use the submit statement to run that program.
I hope this might help you.

How to use function module ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM in a smart form

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement where in the address window in the smart form output should be country specific. For example if the customer is an Indian . The address should NAME,CITY and POSTAL CODE. I searched on web to find a function module wich will display the address in country specific format I found ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM I am not sure whether this is right function module or not. If this is correct please help me in using this.
Thanks and Regards,
Srini..

That function module should be able to do the formatting you're after, as long as the necessary settings are present in the country configuration. It appears the default formatting routine for India would want the postal code before the city, so you may have to change that if your requirement calls it for being after the city. But keep in mind that such config changes will have an effect on other programs that format addresses.
The function module also has pretty extensive documentation.
In a Smartform, you have an ADDRESS element that does the formatting for you, so theoretically you shouldn't have to use the function module though...
