How to handle tables data in XML schema based adobe form

Hi all,
I am working on the CRM business partner creation by using Interactive adobe form with following steps:
1) Uploaded the offline Interactive adobe form to online interactive adobe form via WebDynpro ABAP;
2) Capture XML data into corresponding BAPI structures;
3) Save all the changes to database via BAPI.
The adobe form contains customer information as well as several table views which are bind with the context created in WebDynpro: Node NEW_BP_NODE cardinality 1:1 with single attributes and table type attributes (1:n): COLOUR_COMP, MEN_COMP etc.
While converting the xml format data to SAP context format, It is fine to use following routine to find the single attribute and map to the BAPI structure to do the database update.
NODE = DOCUMENT->FIND_FROM_NAME( NAME = 'XYZu2019).
XYZ = NODE->GET_VALUE( ).
Question: how to convert the xml table data to SAP context format in WebDynpro ABAP?
The XML table data looks like below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<NEW_BP_NODE>
<COLOUR_COMP>
<DATA>
<ZZTFLD0W2AQW />

Hi,
Just follow these steps:
1. Create interactive form UI element in your view.
2. Now provide Datasource and PDFSOURCE to it in form properties.
3. Now give a template name prefix with 'Z' or 'Y'.
4. Double click on it. It will prompt for interface name.
5. Provide interface name prefixed with 'Z' or 'Y'.
6. Click on Context button in the Pop up window and provide the node you have selected as DATASOURCE.
7. Click ok and it will open the form designer.
8. In this way you can create a XML Schema based Form.
9. Activate the interface and design the form providing layout type and other details.
Hope it will help.

Vaibhav

Call XML Schema based Adobe form from ABAP Program

Hi,
I have a scenario where an online Interactive form is designed and its working fine. Now i have a requirement to call the same Adobe form from a report for viewing purpose. Since it is XML Schema based Interface, is it possible to call the same form instead of creating a new one with the same template? Because i tried to call the same Adobe form by passing the values and converting those to XML(By Creating Transformation). Then i converted the XML to XSTRING and passed to the Generated Function Module for Input paramter "/1bcdwb/docxml". This resulted in an error "com.adobe.ProcessingException: com.adobe.Processin".
Please help me out in solving this and check the attachment for code.
Thanks,

How to generate XSD file for XML schema adobe form

Hi,
I want to generate XSD file for XML schema interfaces adobe forms. How can I do it. Where I can do it..or who will provide this file..
Thanks
Ram
Edited by: Ramesh ram on Feb 23, 2010 6:33 PM

Aaaaah, my mistake, sorry for that. Of course you should use the XML interface and I forgot it is not described in this tutorial. You can easily find another one where the XML based interface is used. But... you won´t need any tutorial. just create a WD context. Place a Interactive form element on your WD app screen, in the attributes you need to maintain the form template name. If you write a name suitable for you which no existing forms uses, the system will offer you to generate a XML based interface and right after that it will "send" you to the SFP transaction. That means you can like skipi the step defining the interface because it it is generated automatically and you only draw the layout for this generated interface.
You should use XMl based interface for your WD app, because when using the ABAP dic based, some features are not available (I am not sure, but ABAP based works only for print form or something).
Hope it is all clear now,
have a nice day,

Forms pulling Multiple Records from an XML Schema and XML data files - Adobe LiveCycle Designer

I built a form in Adobe LiveCycle with an xml schema and data file. The problem is with how the form renders the xml data file.
I have a statement element that consists of about 6 fields (statementID, statementName, statementAddress, statementCountry, statementZip, statementDate, etc) of data in the schema that allows for multiple iterations - so one xml data file can contain multiple statements. These fields allow for null values.
But here's the problem: When any of the statements - say statement 2 of 6 - has a null value in one of the fields, if the xml data file doesn't have a placeholder
(example of placeholder: <statementName type="String"/> )in the xml for that field, my form pulls the field value from the NEXT statement.
This corrupts all the rest of the statement records, as this field is shifted up for all the rest.
I know that in the past I haven't needed a placeholder when a field was null. But I'm wondering if when the data allows for multiple records the xml data file needs to generate the placeholder. And where is the problem? In the Schema? The xml data file? My form? And the 64-thousand-dollar question: How to fix it?

If your <statement> element is the one that repeats, it should be bound to a subform with the binding string of something like $.statement[*]. Then in that subform should be your fields and they should have bindings of $.statementID, $.statementName, $.statementAddress, etc.

1) this questions was asked many times before, you didn´t search for a second
2) I am not aware of any standard solution
3) custom solution: use XSLT transformation ID to get XML from the filled DDIC structure and use string operations to add the header and footer to create a valid XML.

Pulling validation pattern from XML schema in LCD

Hi team,
We have deisgned a fillable PDF form uding Live Cycle Designer ES2.
The form contains fields of different data types.
We have created a data connection on the form (using LCD) to bind it to a XML Schema
The XML schema has different types of validations for different data types.
When we treid to bind the XML schema to PDF form using LCD, most of the validations were pulled in. Example, numeric lenghth check, string length check, minoccurs , maxoccurs
But few validations were not pulled from Schema like Pattern validations on string.
Please guide us on how to achieve this using LiveCycle Designer ES2.
Cheers,
Kavi

Hi Kavi,
The pattern from the XML Schema can not be automatically copied across, I assume because of the differences in the XML Schema pattern regex and a JavaScript regex. If you did use a compatible subset I you could write a macro to add the pattern to the validation event. One difference is a XML Schema pattern always assumes a ^ and $ to match the beginning and end. Have you seen this document http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/livecycle/lc_designer_XML_schemas.pdf,

Dynamic Table with XML Schema

Hi, I am new to livecycle and wondering if there is any sample for setting up the dynamic table with XML schema so I can access the data through workbench's xpath. thanks.

Ivor,
Take a look at the samples shipped with Designer. For 8.2.1 release take a look at
C:\Program Files\Adobe\LiveCycle Designer ES\8.2\EN\Samples\Forms\Purchase Order\Schema\Schema\Purchase Order.xsd
and the form samples.
Otherwise, forward a request to [email protected] I would be happy to send you a sample XDP with a dynamic table and a schema.

Types in XML Schema

I've tried to create some XML Schema but was unable to find any information what type should I use e.g. for radiobuttonlist.
Could somebody give me some clue or link to document where it's mentioned?

Hi dex13x,
I found this document helpfull, though it is for Designer 7.0 I don't think the schema handling has changed much, http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/livecycle/lc_designer_XML_schemas.pdf.
By default a RadioButtonList is an exclusive group of integer values so I would define an element of type xs:int, or something based on xs:int with the valid values. If you have a RadioButtonList with text values then you could do the same thing with but based on xs:string.
Somehow, I feel I have misunderstood your question but I hope the document helps.

How to add xml data to an xml scheme

Hi all,
I am having a problem trying to add content to an XML schema file - I have a schema (xsd file) and i want to use it in order to create and validate new/other xml's.
The issue is that i want to place some data in the original XML schema file that will be inserted into the new xml's i create based on the schema.
I am using java APIs to create the new xml's based on the original schema. I tried at first using default values in order to create the initial data, but I have a problem doing this for complex types.
Has anyone encountered a similar problem?
Thanks
shahar

Hello Ashley,
you are already close to the solution. In BADI QISR1 you simply fill the
table SPECIAL_DATA e.g.like
fieldindex = 1
fieldname = 'FIELD1'
fieldvalue = 'Value1'
fieldindex = <n>
fieldname = 'FIELD1'
fieldvalue = 'VALUE<n>'
Then on the Adobe form layout (Adobe Designer), you have to use the table control XFO from the standard library. Here you have to bind then the corresponding column to FIELD1.
Best regards,
Simon

OLEDB Dataconnection and XML Schema

Hi,
I create a form with fields binding with a OLEDB dataconnection.
It's work, I can request my database and store my data.
I want to be able to can access these field in a process (with workbench ES).
If I bind fields with a xml schema I can access to them and manipulate them but I can't bind them with a OLEDB dataconnection and a xml schema.
How can I do this ?
Thank you and I hope you could understand me :D

Yes, I have a DB but I am already working with the XML file. The Data Connection that I am using has this config: XML Schema Schema file: contents.xsd Options: <contents>, no checkboxes activated My solution is supposed to run online in a LAMP env, when the user clicks a Print Button, I run a script to generate the XML from the DB, and then I open a new page with the PDF form that I've built in LC Designer (8.0) with the generated data. I don't need data navigation, it's a summary report that will be printed. So, while developing, I've saved a populated XML locally and keep trying to open the PDF file with the data without success. Same if I save the 3 files (xsd, xml and pdf form) in the server and try to open the PDF through browser. But, as I said before, when previewing it in LC, I see the form exactly as I want. I did what you mentioned (import data in Adobe Reader), and it worked partially, since the repeating row just showed one record. As I can see, I need some kind of script in the PDF form that, when it's loaded, the data (XML file) is imported. By now, I am trying to do it locally and think this should work. Then, for the online solution, I thought that I would need something running on the server, and based on what you said, I will need LC Forms, is that correct? Hope things are clearer now. Answering to your question, my form is binded globally. The repeating row is connected (Default Binding) to > $record.content[*] < and each field in the row connected to an item from the XSD definition. No Import/Export Bindings in use. Thanks for the help so far! :)

XML Schema based form in webdynpro

Hi I have existing webdynpro which is having an interactive form view. The form is XML schema based.
I want to create the same webdynpro with different data structure and different interactive form.
Do i need to create the form with XML schema or do i need to do that from Webdynpro side which will generate the XML Schema automatically.
Can you please help.
Nik

Thanks Amit,
It as a really a good help for me to understand the process of creation of form from Webdynpro.
Let me explain you the problem in detail:-
There is an webdynpro application where 7 forms are added using differents views for each form (created through webdynpro) with different interfaces. That means in all the forms i found XML Schema based interface.
One for the forms view for surround frame form ZFORM1 (using a structure ZSTR1 of 20 fields in the interface ZINT1 is there)
An adobe form Developer created a new form ZFORM2 by copying this ZFORM1. That means ZFORM2 is also using the same interface ZINT1 (we can also say same structure ZSTR1 ).
No view was created to use this form.
Now before creating the view & add it in the WD aplication, for this ZFORM2 Client want to delete 2
fields & 2 new fields for this form ZFORM2.
I created a new structure ZSTR2 ( as per the fields required) Now i am thinking of to create a new form ZFORM2 using this structure ZSTR2 in the context of my new View .This will create a new interface ZINT2 (XML schema based)
But this is a very time consuming process as the form ZFORM2 created by the developer earlier has so many java scripting code. he took 2 months to develop it. and i dont have that much time.
I am sure there must be some other way to fix this problem.
Can anyone give me the proper solution .
Cheers,
Nik

XML schema cannot be selected as Data Connection at Desinger embedded NWDS.

Hi experts,
Now I'm designing an Interactive form offline scenario.
Because of customer requirement, the offline interactive form need to access to local master data, which might be stored in local PC as XML file.
Some Adobe colleagues are working with us and they recommended to use 'XML schema' for local file reference.
However, 'XML schema' cannot be selected as Data Connection at Adobe Designer embedded in SAP NWDS.
Is this standard technical limitation for SAP Adobe solution ?
Does anyone know why SAP has such a limitation ?

CDA XML Schema Data Connection

I have been experimenting in Adobe Designer 7.0 and want to create an CDA XML schema data connection. I used the directions in the help screen and was almost finished, but I got a pop up box that said that my XML schema file was too big. What are the size limits for XML schema files?
Linda

usually you can make the binding global and all same named fields will end up with the same value. You may not be able to do that if you have bound your field to a data node in your XML. If that is the case then you will have to do it programatically. Lets assume you have Order_Number on Page 1 and Order_Number2 on Page 2. You would code on the calculate event of the 1st Order_Number field (the one where the number is calculated) - form1.Page2.Order_Number2.rawValue = form1.Page1.Order_Number.rawValue;
You can add multiple statements to equate that value to other instances of the field as you see fit. Now when any one of those values changes all of the others will be updated auto-magically!

Where to find the Xml Schema details of the ABODE extension(xmlns:ADBE) for the JDF

Hi There,
I had been working on dynamic creation of JDF file for processing the job via Adode PDF print Engine. However, I need to know the various JDF attribtues which were available in the adode namespace [xmlns:ADBE="http://ns.adobe.com/JDF" this link was no more accessible via internet]
Could you please provide with the link where i can find the adobe namespace details. OR
Can some provide me the xml schema file for the adobe extension ?
please reply asap.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Steve,
Generally when you need to find out parameters you would test a working one to see what is present so you can just replicate this.
Therefore I would suggest that you set the Business partner subscription for the xml site type and other required settings. Then make a change to a business partner and see the output of the xml file to see the parameters you will need.
Hope this gets you on the right path for the solution.
Cheers
Andrew
