Version in SMARTFORMS
Hi,
can we maintain versions for smartforms?
if yes, how?
Hi,
You cannot maintain versions in smartforms like in abap programs. One feature is before making changes in the original form, there is a provision wherein by you can download the existing form in XML format in your desktop. Then you can start making changes. If the changes you make does not get reflected, then you can once again upload the form from your desktop.

Version history Smartform?
Hello experts,
is there a version history for smartforms like for reports, fm´s .... ?
In transaction SMARTFORM i can not find it.Hello,
Smartforms doesn't have the concept of version management. But you can see the last changed by, date & Time.
Also, if you want you can get the full transport history from the table E071 table. As a hint just pass the E071-Object as 'SSFO' & Object name as your smartform name.
I also recomment you to make a copy of the smartform always before doing any major changes so that in the later stage if any issues happened, you can use this copied version.

Hi experts,
can anyone tell me how to see the versions of smartform layout as i notice there is no version management in utilities.
can any tell me how to debugg a particular node of smartform.
Thanks in advance,
alson.Hi,
I thing u can't see the versions of scrips and smarforms. When u r saving u have note the request no or GOTO SE09 and find ur request no.
1) DEBUG Smartform:
One way to debug smartform is to debug the Function Module of that smartforms. If you want to debug particular smartform node that the solution would be, insert a "Program Line" just above the node you want to debug and this program line write a normal abap breakpoint. So whenever you call the smartforms, it will stop at this breakpoint and you can debug onwards.
2). DEBUG SAPScript
They are two ways to debug the SAPScript.
1). Use Tools - Word Processing - Layout Set (SE71). Enter name of layout set and then Utilities - Activate Debugger.
It is of no consequence which layoutset you enter when selecting the SAPscript debugger. (Menu path: Tools-Wordprocessing - Forms, Utilities - Activate Debugger) The next layoutset called will invoke the debugger.
2). Another way to set the SAPScript debugger is to run program RSTXDBUG.
When you debug Print program it is same as you debug any other ABAP program. While when you debug SAPScript, you actually debug the code ( scripting) you have written SAPScript Form.

Chandra shekhar.Hi,
There is NO versionmanagement in Smartforms.
If you want to do a certain amount of version management you can:
- make a download to an xml every time you make a change or
- make a copy in smartforms to a smartform with a versionnummer postfix or
- for every change a single transport request.
- and for all make a document in which the changes are registered and in which version they are made.

Hello,
I'm working on ecc 6.0 and I have a problem with smartforms. I have to create custom smartform for purchase order but standard smartforms such as /smb40/mmpo_a are not available in the system. Is not available package SMB40.
I've tried to download this from another system but I am not able to upload it in my system. ERROR: INVALID FORMAT FILE (NAME SPACE) and it is xml format.
How can I solve this problems?
thanks in advance for replyHi ALL,
For the availability of SAP Best Practices Preconfigured Smart Forms, check SAP Note 843193 firstly.
You can download the latest version of smartform from SAP Note 852250.
You can find MM/SD smartforms from attachment, you need to create them
by yourself in your system manually ,please refer to technical document
in the attachment.
Also, the preconfigured SmartForms are delivered with
the country-specific SAP Best Practices Baseline and Industry packages.
Check http://service.sap.com/bestpractices for availability.

Smartform SD order confirmation(urgent)
Hi,
I need to develop a SD order confirmation Smartform. Do I need to use form /SMB40/SDORC_L. What about the print program associated with it. I copy the standard form customize it and do the configuration with NACE. Is it correct. But atlast which transaction I have to use inorder to send the application data to the form. I mean for example for PO we use ME9F. what abt in this case. urgent please.
Points assured.Hello,
I assume that you have installed preconfigured Smartforms package (OSS Note 595812)? For example in 4.7 version correct Smartform is /SMB40/SDORC_A and print program /SMB40/RVADOR01.
NACE is correct transaction for customizing and you can use tc. VA01 to create some test data. Or just check table VBAK for old order confirmations.

Are Smart Forms included as part of the standard SAP licensing agreement if my client has purchased SAP ERP? Does this apply even when I create my own custom Smart Form? We are investigating the decision criteria of when to use Smart Forms vs. Adobe Interactive Forms. I would appreciate any references out there that provide insight as to when to use one versus the other. Thanks.
Smartforms come with your standard R/3 only.
as for choosing between the two, Adobe forms are next version of smartforms they can give better look feel and as addition they can also provide you facilities for user inputs which is not there with smartforms.
