UWL for HR Administrators and Adobe forms

Standard SAP expects HR Administrator to specify the "due date" when they open an Adobe Interactive Form.
Could you configure the Adobe Interactive Form so that it collects an initial date from the manager, to be updated later by HR admin if neccessary?
Thanks

I got the solution and problem is solved.
Iterating & processing a enumrated dropdown is like any other dropdown /list box in adobe forms.

How to have multi select dropdowns for web request and adobe forms

Hi All,
I am working on interactive forms for CRM 7.0 using web request and ZCI layout.
When I say web request we define the fields required for the form in CRM that becomes the context for WDA and passed onto Adobe form.
This web request is a flat structure which mean if I have a node and attributes with in that you cant have multiple values to wards this node as in WDA.
Now My query:
I have a field called "xyz" since web request is a flat structure i just defined it as a string.
In WDA I made it a enumrated field and added key value pairs to it.
In Adobe form I binded this field to a WD native enum dropdown list every thing is fine untill here.
Now in the form I need this as a multiple select, so i changed the dropdown field to list box it works.
The form has to be submitted as a draft version when did so, it will not execute any APIs but saves the data to the web request.
When the same form is opened for the next time, with the data in web request it should reopen this field with the multiple seleced values high lighted.
since the field xyz is a single filed of string, how can i maintain multiple values in that...?
if there is a form status auto save function in Adobe form this might solve a bit but not sure when the form is opened 2nd time from web reqest view does it consider it as a new one or open the same form...?
I have such dropdown fields and problems including ones with depenedt values on one another.
I tried my best to explain the problem, if somebody can help me with this its much appriciated.
Note: Since this is dependent on CRM web request I am posting the same query in that block also apologies if this mean a duplicacy.
Thanks & Regards,
Sai

Merging Smartform Output and Adobe Form Output in a single PDF File

Hi All,
My Requirement is as follows -
I have multiple Smartforms and a single Adobe Form.
I want to merge the Smartform Outputs and Adobe Form output in a single PDF.
I am able to merge multiple Smartform Output in a PDF , but not able to find any way to merge smartform and adobe form output as the Smartform output is in OTF Format and Adobe form output is in PDF Format itself.
I have tried few ways , but could not find any success.
Request you all to give me some direction to this problem.
Thanks & Regards
Bhavika

Kumar,
I am afraid this is not possible using SAP functionality. There are probably 3rd party tools which allow you to merge several PDFs into one, but SAP itself does not offer such a mechanism. There is an internal SAP function, though, which can merge several "parts" (=several PDFs) within an Adobe-created spool request into a single PDF, intended for downloading this PDF from SP01.
This is described in note 1717357.
Best regards,
Alexander

Create Separate Views for New,Edit and Display forms in Infopath

Hi,
I need to create a separate views for New, Edit and Display forms in infopath.
For ex : I need a Submit Button on Display form and not in New/Edit forms.
I tried, but i amnot able to get the changes.
Regards, Shreyas R S

I just validated my approach in a 2013 farm, this is precisely how it's done!
Step 1) List > Display Form
Step 2) Change the View within the Web Part Properties. In your screenshot it looks like you simply went to View Item on the single item, which is not the direction I gave =P.
**Assuming you've already created the multiple views within InfoPath, this allows you to set them up as distinct defaults for New, Edit and Display, let's make that clear. If you are not even to the point of having separate views, that is just in InfoPath,

New Exchange Plug-in for CINEMA 4D and Adobe After Effects

In case you haven't seen the news from Maxon today, they have come out with their own native plugin to export AE 3d comps to Cinema 4d.
http://www.maxon.net/en/news/singleview-default/article/maxon-announces-a-new-exchange-plu g-in-for-cinema-4d-and-adobe-after-effects.html

Yes. If you render out your C4D file into a format with alpha, you could very easily place a video behind it in AE. You can even easily bring your C4D camera move into AE if you wanted to. For several years Maxon has provided a plugin to bring a C4D project's cameras, lights, and nulls or solids (that have been tagged with the External Compositing Tag) into AE. Lately, however, there is another way. If you have AE CC (version 12) or CC 2014 (version 13), there's another way: details of CINEMA 4D integration with After Effects

Correspondence Type for F.27 with ADOBE form.

Hi All,
I am stuck into one issue. See the below details:
Requirement: I want to create a new correspondence type with new PDF form which can be attached to F.27.
What I did so far: I have created a new ADOBE form to fulfill the PDF requirement and created a fresh Z driver program to run it. Also Functional people attached this driver program and form with newly created correspondence type for particular company code. When I am running my Z program directly from SE38 it is running correctly and giving me PDF output in a proper way.
My Problem: The problem is when I am running it from F.27, whatever user is giving parameters in F.27 selection screen is not passing to my Z program and the output is not coming as required. In this case what it is doing is simply going to my piece of code neglecting the user entered parameters and picking up the parameter given in variant of my Z program and giving me output.
I am very new to correspondence type and all so kindly help me in fetching F.27's selection parameters into my program.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best Regards
Virendra Kedia

Hi Raj,
The selection screen for f.27 is coming from ob78. And the link of Correspondence program and correspondence is difined in OB78.

Difference between Smart Forms and Adobe Form

Hi all,
What are disadvantages of Smart form in SAP ,
What is difference between Smart Forms and Adobe interactive Form.
I heard from someone that in future Adobe interactive Form will repalce smart forms. Is it true or not
Best Regards
Srikanth

Hi,
Companies depend on formal documents that reflect their corporate identities and contain critical business information from live systems. SAP and Adobe partnered for automating and streamlining forms-based communication to support customers who create reusable forms for their business processes.
SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe will be used more and more as a way of simplifying and automating manual processes.
There are various advantages of Adobe forms.
SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe provides all the features and functions you need to create form-based output, such as order confirmations, invoices, or pay slips. You can either print such documents or send them by email or FAX.
Online Interactive Forms
A user logs on to the company intranet to fill in a form required by the HR department (for example, a Non-Disclosure Agreement to be signed by a new employee). The form is displayed in the browser.
As the user is logged on in the background to the company's HR system, his master data is displayed in the form. The user enters the required information in the fillable fields of the interactive form, and sends the data back to the system by pushing a button. The system extracts the data from the form and saves it in the database.
Offline Interactive Forms
The purchasing department of a company creates a bid in its Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system and selects the potential vendors. Based upon this data, the system automatically creates interactive bidding forms with specific vendor information, such as the address or contact person.
The forms are transmitted to the vendors by email. The vendors can fill out the forms offline (without being connected to the system that created the forms) and transmit them back to the company. The company then processes the forms automatically, and the data provided by the vendors is written to the ERP system. The purchasing department uses the data to evaluate the quotation and then issues an order.
With the integration of Adobe PDF technology into its solutions, SAP will be able to further extend its offerings of end-to-end business solutions by:
Providing for the first time the capabilities of Adobe's interactive PDF-based forms.
Integrating PDF documents into business processes that are driven by SAP applications.
Automating the process of moving XML data from SAP applications into interactive forms and vice versa.
Reducing time to design, manage, and maintain extended forms-based processes through easy-to-use forms design and deployment tools.
Offering its customers enhanced printing capabilities, in particular for interactive Web applications.
The focus of new forms technology from SAP is interactive PDF-based forms that can be created in SAP systems as a result of the integration of Adobe technology with Web Dynpro and the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio. This integration means that adobe is the future technology.

Kate

SAP and Adobe Form - Scripting Issues

Hello experts,
before i start with the the issue, I would like to describe some functions which we have developed in our adobe form (not interactive Form!).
We are displaying XHTML Text coming from SAP , in order to load the XTHML into the controls we are calling the following line of code during the initialize event:
this.value.exData.loadXML(this.rawValue);
We are printing a table which contains 3 position types (SAP DATA)
Product items
Groups
Texts/Pictures (XHTML/Binary Data)
        On each new page a header line shall be printed if the type is product item. This codding is placed inside the layout:ready event:
data.BODY.HIERARCHY.GS_HIER.DATA.ALTERNATIVE_NODE_TYPE.NODETYPE::ready:layout - (JavaScript, both)
var vPage = xfa.layout.page(this);
Script.setHeaderline(vPage, this.rawValue, this.parent.FLAG_HEADER_LINE.rawValue);
data.BODY.HIERARCHY.GS_HIER.HEADER::ready:layout - (JavaScript, both)
var vPage = xfa.layout.page(this);
Script.getHeaderline(vPage);
if (Script.gHeader == "X") {
this.presence = "visible";
else {
this.presence = "hidden";
SCRIPT SECTION: -->
var gHeader = "Y";
var level_hier = 5;
var new_page;
var gPage = 1;
arrHeader = new Array();
function setPage(in_page) {
gPage = in_page;
function getPage(out_page) {
out_page = gPage;
return out_page;
function setHeaderline(in_page, in_nodetype, in_flag_header_line) {
if (in_page != gPage) {
       if (in_nodetype == "1" && in_flag_header_line != "X") {
            arrHeader[in_page] = "X";
else {
       arrHeader[in_page] = "N";
gPage = in_page;
function getHeaderline(in_page) {
gHeader = arrHeader[in_page];
The first functionality was working always pretty good. For making the second functionality available we started calling the Adobe Forms using the Parameter DYNAMIC = 'X'. Unfortunaltey the first functionality is then not working anymore correctly. We have tried to change javascript processing to server side/client side and both, but in the mode DYNAMIC = 'X' it does not have any influence, all javascript is performed at the client and at runtime. The result is that some pdf reader can not see the XTHML texts and we are expierencing some other problems with pictures.
We need to have both functionalities working at the same time for all readers. I guess this is only possible if the javascript is processed at the server side and the ADS returns a finished/static PDF document.
Does anyone has an idea how to solve this issue ?
Thanks a lot,
Wladimir

Thanks for the info Juergen. I am still awaiting your blog on secured web services , if you get time please post it.
