Version Control for adobe forms
Dear All,
We have a situation where we already go live with version 0 of our adobe form. Now, we have an enhancement to the form i.e.: some new functionalities and new field. Previously we have tried to transport the new changes to the production without any version control and those processes that have been already started prior to the new changes encounter error when the user continues the process.
I am wondering how do the version control works and any documentation on how to configure it?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Bryan
Hi Brian,
Here is some information that I found in the IMG on Create ISR Scenario...
Create ISR Scenario
Use
In this IMG activity, you create an ISR scenario that has a one-to-one relationship with a form scenario. To be able to use a form scenario in a process, one ISR scenario must exist for each form scenario. The ISR scenario and the form scenario must be linked with each other. You make this setting in Customizing for HR Administrative Services in the IMG activity Link ISR Scenario with Form Scenario.
In the form scenario, you define primarily the basic set of form fields and their processing through the backend services. In the ISR scenario, you specify the definition of the user interface. You also specify which form is used for the display and how the layout of this interactive form is designed. You use interactive forms based on Adobe software to create and process the forms.
ISR scenarios and form scenarios are version dependent. The version numbers of the ISR scenario are assigned automatically. Note that a form scenario must have exactly the same version as the linked ISR scenario. For this reason, you should always create a new version in the ISR scenario first and then use the same version number when you create a version in the form scenario manually.
Note
If an ISR scenario or form scenario (with an existing version) has already been used in a productive process, you should not change the configuration. If you want to make changes to a process or an ISR scenario or form scenario, you should always create a new version, and only ever use that new version in the future. In this way, processes that have been started can be concluded with the old version and new processes can be started simultaneously with the new version.
This is from the Create Form Scenario documentation...
Create version
Form scenarios are version dependent, which means that there is at least one version of each form scenario. Versions are linked with processes. Since processes can vary, you must also be able to adjust the associated scenarios. To be able to provide different forms for process variants, you create versions.
You can still process and change an existing version at a later point in time. Once a version has been used to execute a process, you should not make any more changes to this version; instead, you should create a new version.
The form scenario and the (linked) ISR scenario are both version dependent. They must always have exactly the same version numbers. Note that the version number of the ISR scenario is generated and cannot be entered manually. When you create a new version in the form scenario, you therefore have to use the version number generated in the ISR scenario.
If you have already made extensive Customizing settings for the form scenario and want to create a new version based on the settings, you should use the IMG activity Manage Form Scenario.
Hope this helps...
Cheers,
Kevin

Problem with Configuration of GP for Adobe Forms
Hi,
I following the guide 'Configuration of GP for Adobe Forms' (from Configuration of GP for Adobe Forms )
When i try to configure 'Web Service Clients' in the visual administrator:
Configure this parameters:
- Destination URL SLD
- Authentication BASIC
- User
- Password
but the frame with this parameters:

-- WS Port
don´t show.
I think it is an error in swing because the title 'System Landscape Synchronization' show but the scrollbar stop there.
Features:
Netweaver 04s
Visual administrator 7 SP 9 java version 1.4.2_09

Interactive table control in Adobe forms
Dear gurus,
I am trying to create an interactive table control with header. The table control will have 10 rows, and I want the users to be able to enter values into the table.
I created a new node with cardinality 0...n; and added attributes under it. The I dragged that onto my design view and made duplicate entries of the rows to get 10 rows under the header.
Now the issues I am having are
1) The table is not visible in preview Pdf; I tried to save and activate the form, but still appears to be invisible
2) For some strange reason the table control in adobe forms is not as flexible as the one in webdynpro, where it is easier to bind the fields and send / recieve data from the interface.
~thanks and appreciate any comments.when your cardinality is 0..n you won't see it in preview mode.. you need to launch it from your dynpro & you will see it.
Also, if you know you're going to have 10 rows all the time, why not make the cardinality 1...n?
Nevertheless, I personallly wouldn't create the table in this method.
I would create the table in Web dynpro, add a column called "SeqNo" or whatever and pre-populate that field with 1 - 10. When you drag/drop your table from your Data View, just rt-click that column and hide it so your users won't see that field.
You'll have 10 rows displayed to the user each time and you won't worry about having to bind anything since it'll be done automagically. -
Configuration of Guided Procedures for Adobe Forms
Hi all,
we are about testing the Guided Procedures with Adobe Forms.
I found 3 documents here in SDN:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b9ea34c2-0701-0010-e2a2-d8e9cd6d85dc
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/8a696cea-0c01-0010-d494-9b0b8ce7565f
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/06717aea-0c01-0010-b28f-e6494458788f
My problem now is the configuration and the understanding of the "Web Service Security" in the Visual Administrator.
In the mentioned guides above it is written to choose "SLD" for the URL and the following three values under "Synchronize with System Landscape":
System Name:
WS Name: {com.adobe/AdobeDocumentServices}{AdobeDocumentServicesAssembly.jar}
WS Port: {com.adobe/AdobeDocumentServices}{AdobeDocumentServicesAssembly.jar}ConfigPort_Document
Now my questions:
1. According to the guides it seems that the ADS must be installed on the same J2EE where the central SLD is running. Is that a must? I don´t hope so!
2. What do I have to take for ? The SID and machine of the SLD or of the J2EE where the ADS is installed (this would be my own Portal)?
3. My portal is of version Netweaver2004s SP10, my SLD ist of version 6.40 SP18.
Could this be a problem here?
Thanks,
Rossihi

Need to configure output type for adobe form
Hello All,
I need to configure output type for Adobe Form thru NACE. What would be print program and how do I call my form from that program? and, what would be the FORM routine for that form in NACE?
I'm little confused, Pls I need your help.
Thanks in advance,
ChandraHi,
Just before few weeks we did this task.
Say for example if you want to print PO details through ADOBE form instead of normal sapscript layout or standard MEDRUCK, you can follow the following steps.
1. Design the form in SFP tcode, by passing the necessary inputs through form interface.
2. Then use tcode tcode NACE and select EF as application and click output types button on the application tool bar. Select NEU output type and double click processing routines on left side.
3. Then, in the right side of the screen we can see the calling program and the form (may be sapscript or smartform) whatever used.
4. For form names we have two options in NACE tcode.
One is Form and the otherone is PDF/Smartform Form. If you are using adobe form give your form name under PDF/Smartform and also select PDF under the type option in the same screen.
This worked perfectly for us. But pass the required parameters to the form from the routine used in standard program.
If any queries please post it. -
How to create a Webservice for Adobe Form(I need Coding)?
Hi,
I need coding for Webservice inorder to define the context structure for Adobe Form.
In AdobeForm:
1) I create a dataconnection and while creating it i need to give WSDL Url.
2) I have created it.
3) But iam not getting the Context structure in the Dataview.
For this wht coding i need to write in WSDL File?
Any Help is Highly aprreciated with Points.
Very urgent requirement?Hi,
I'm not exactly sure what your problem is.
A description on how to call web services can be found in my blog:
/people/juergen.hauser2/blog/2008/02/25/using-web-services-with-sap-interactive-forms-by-adobe-overview-tips
If you are facing an issue with what is displayed in the data view for the WSDL data connection (i.e you are missing nodes) you could try to use Designer 8.0 instead since it cotains bug fixes in that area.

Hi,
OK. Following instructions, I've uninstalled the old Flash Player and installed the right one, and videos are now playing. Thanks for pointing me to the other posts on this site. YouTube and other videos are now playing
Some of the videos still play jerkily (they don't stream evenly). A few stream evenly once they've been allowed to buffer fully. (I think I'm using these terrms correctly.) Is this solely caused by low bandwidth, or is there something—an adjustment of some kind—that I can do with Flash Player to have online videos stream evenly, even from the moment I start them?
As I mentioned, to bypass this uneven streaming while watching online, I download the videos and watch them usually using Quicktime Player 7.6.4. Still, they don't always play evenly, but for the most part do.
I've just tested bandwidth and I'm told:
5.63 Bbps Download speed

Standard print program for Adobe Forms
Hi all -
Does anyone know if there was a standard print program delivered for the predelivered Adobe form F110_AVIS_INT? And if there is - what is it? Is there any document anywhere to determine predelivered print programs for Adobe forms?
Your help is much appreciated!
Thanks
AbbyHi
In SAP you can check for the Print Programs in Tcode <b>OB96</b>
which gives assignment of programs to script layouts

Regular expression not working for adobe forms
Hi,
Iam using qtp for adobe forms and for some reason if i put in regular expression for apid value it doesn't recognise the object..there is nothing wrong with the regular expression as it is evaluated using regular expression evaluator in qtp 11.0....any ideas
I got all the addins and everything and when i used regular expression for the top window it works but for any other object it doesn'tPlease try the code and see the problem. The regular expression is fine.
I can replace the string with these and got results like this:
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
public class HtmlFilter implements TextFilter {
private static String strTagPattern = "<\\s?(.|\n)*?\\s?>";
private static int patternMode = Pattern.MULTILINE | Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE | Pattern.UNICODE_CASE | Pattern.CANON_EQ;
private static Pattern tagPattern = Pattern.compile(strTagPattern, patternMode);
public String filter(String t) {
if(t==null || t.length()==0) return "";
String ret = null;
return tagPattern.matcher(t).replaceAll("");
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(new HtmlFilter().filter(null));
System.out.println(new HtmlFilter().filter(""));
System.out.println(new HtmlFilter().filter("<P>abc def</P>"));
System.out.println(new HtmlFilter().filter("<P>我国石油供应安全系统影响</P>"));
}The results are

Right tool for Configuration Management (version control) for Jdeveloper

Please share your idea and exepeience about right tool for Configuration Management (version control) for Jdeveloper Development. I used CVS in the past. Now In new company we are planning to use Oracle SCM. Is anybody used it before for Jdev Developmet ( BC4J/ADF and Struts project). Is SCM also intergrated with Jdev just like CVS.??
Jdev Team please guide us.

Version Control for BUSINESS OBJECTS repository
Hi,
Do we have any version control for business objects repository?
ThanksHi
I am hoping someone can answer my Version Control queries. The LCM document is limited in its detail on VM.
I am currently testing the BO LCM 3.1 and while it appears very easy to use especially for promotion, the Version Control Manager seems to be lacking in controls and a clear promotion path from dev to test to uat to prod.
We have set up 2 identical environments for UAT and PROD.
And using the Version Control part of LCM creating version control for a universe.
Logged into VM in UAT
We have selected a universe
Added it to VM
Made a change to the universe in Designer
Exported it
Then Checked it in
Can now see 2 versions in the history and the VMS Version. All good
I then click on swap system and log into PROD
The VM history is also there in PROD
I have a number of concerns and questions and can't seem to find the solution to them anywhere.
1. VM seems to be lacking a controlled process from all the environments. Basically we want to deploy following this path;
Dev - Test - UAT - PROD
There does not seem to be any controls or security which would stop you from GET VERSION from the DEV environment and putting that straight into PROD. Obviously we would not want that to happen.
We would only want to GET VERSION from UAT
Similarly for UAT We would only want to GET VERSION from TEST
And for TEST We would only want to GET VERSION from DEV.
Granted, we currently only have 2 identical environments.
But Is there controls that would stop you when in PROD from getting versions from any other system other than UAT?
Also is there any reason why no promotion is required when using VM.
This seems to negate the Promotion Function of the LCM
Any advise would be greatly appreciated with this.
Many thanks
