1.Getting started with Smart Forms (Building a simple application)

By Sunitha

Go to transaction “Smartforms”.

Enter a name for the form and click on Create.

Enter a short description for the form.

In this example, we will print a simple text using our form. To create a text, expand “Pages and Windows” New Page. Select Main Window and Right click on that. Select Create Text

Give a name to the text and short description.

Also enter the text you want to see on the form.

SAVE and Activate the Smart form.

To know the function module that is generated upon activation of this smart form, click on Environment Function module name.

Following popup with the function module would appear.

Test the smart form by clicking on Test. You would be navigated to the function builder with the function module defaulting to the one that is generated earlier.

Click on execute.

Since we do not have any parameters to pass on, click on Execute.

2.Printing Address using Smart Forms

By Sunitha

Go to transaction “Smartforms”.

Enter a name for the form and click on Create.

Enter a short description for the form.

Expand “Pages and Windows” and click on “%PAGE1”. Rename the page to your needs and add a short description to the same.

To display the address on the form, right click on “Main Window”, select Create Address

Following screen appears.

Enter a name to the Address and add a short description for the same.

You all might be aware that Addresses are stored in the table ADRC. Now pick an address number from that table, add provide the same in the “Address Number” as shown below:

Save and Activate the form.

Now execute the Smart form. The output would be similar as shown below:

3.Calling Smart Form using Driver Program

By Sunitha

Let us prepare a driver program for the Smart Form that displays the address (Click here to for the demo on ADDRESS). This is a simple demo and doesn’t contain any parameter passing in this example.

Check the function module that is generated when the Smart Form is activated by clicking on Environment Function Module Name.

A pop up would appear displaying the function module name.

We would use this function module in our driver program to call this function module.

Let us create a driver program with a simple call to the above generated function module:

REPORT Zcall_smartform. * To call a smart form, we would need to call the function module that * is generated. * Calling the generated function module directly is not an efficient * method. For efficient method, click here. CALL FUNCTION '/1BCDWB/SF00000359' * EXPORTING * ARCHIVE_INDEX = * ARCHIVE_INDEX_TAB = * ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS = * CONTROL_PARAMETERS = * MAIL_APPL_OBJ = * MAIL_RECIPIENT = * MAIL_SENDER = * OUTPUT_OPTIONS = * USER_SETTINGS = 'X' * IMPORTING * DOCUMENT_OUTPUT_INFO = * JOB_OUTPUT_INFO = * JOB_OUTPUT_OPTIONS = * EXCEPTIONS * FORMATTING_ERROR = 1 * INTERNAL_ERROR = 2 * SEND_ERROR = 3 * USER_CANCELED = 4

* OTHERS = 5 . IF sy-subrc <> 0. * MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO * WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4. ENDIF. Execute the program for the output.

4.Displaying Graphics using Smart Forms

Go to transaction SE78 (Administration of Form Graphics).

Double-click on “GRAPHICS” node and click on “Import (F5)” to import the image.

Select the file name by using the F4 functionality available. Name your graphic and enter a short description. If you have color image, select the radio button “Color Bitmap image”. Click on tick mark to proceed.

The graphic is imported and is stored in “Business Document Server”.

You can test this by selecting print preview:

Now go to transaction SMARTFORM.

Create a new form and give a short description for the same.

To display an image, right click on Main Window Create Graphic

Use F4 help to fill the fields.

Save and activate the workflow.

Test run the smart form, to check the appearance of the graphic.

5.Passing data to the Smart Forms

Scenario: Let us take a simple scenario of passing Material Number and Material description from Driver program to the Smart Form.

Go to transaction SMARTFORMS and create a Smart Form.

To pass the values from the driver program to Smart Form, we need to define the form interface with the parameters to be passed on.

Click on Global Settings Form Interface.

Now define the import parameters for MATNR and MAKTX (From table MAKT)

Now create a Text in the Main window to display the above two parameters.

To add a field, we need to click on “Insert Field”.

Enter the field names between the ‘&’ (Ampersand) as shown below:

Similarly create for Description.

Save and Activate the Smart Form. Test run the Smart Form by clicking on Execute.

Enter the values as shown below and click on execute.

6.Working with Global Definitions and Program Lines

Scenario: To calculate the total seats available using the values “Maximum seats available” and the “Occupied seats”. In this case, we would be defining Maximum Seats and Occupied Seats in the form interface and Seats Available in the Global definitions. We would write some code to calculate Seats available and then print the same.

Procedure: Create a new smart form and, in the Form Interface, define the following two fields: (To know about Form Interface, click here. )

Now click on “Global definitions” :

Now define a variable, SEATS_AVAIL

Now to calculate Seats Available, select Main Window Create Flow Logic Program Lines

Now mention the input parameters as SEATS_MAX and SEATS_OCC and the output parameter as SEATS_AVAIL. Write the code to calculate SEATS_AVAIL.

Now to print these values on the layout, create a text by selecting Main Window Create Text:

Save and do the syntax check. Activate the Smart Form.

Test the smart form by clicking on F8. Enter some values for max_seats and avail_seats

Execute the function module.

7.Working with Secondary Window

Create a Smart Form using the transaction SMARTFORMS.

To create a Secondary Window,

Right click on Page Create Window (as shown below)

A secondary window is created.

To position the secondary window to meet our needs, click on Form Painter.

Following screen appears:

The highlighted window in the above screenshot is the secondary window.

Move the secondary window (and even stretch) according to your needs.

To close the above page design, click on Form Painter again.

Now let us write some content in these areas.

Now select the Page Secondary Window

Right click on Secondary Window Create Text

Write some text inside.

Similarly, create some text in the Main window as well.

Save and activate the Smart Form. Test run the Smart Form; you would get the following output:

:

8.Demo on Copies Window (Real time scenario)

Scenario: To print three copies of a particular document and the first copy should mention as Customer copy, second one as Bank copy and the third one say College copy.

Create a Smart Form using the transaction SMARTFORMS.

In this demo, we would print in the Copies window whether it is bank copy, company copy or others.

Create a secondary window as shown below:

Select Window type as “Copies Window” as shown below:

Also name your window and give it a proper description. Do not change any other settings.

Adjust the window size using the Form Painter available on the application toolbar.

The variable SFSY-COPYCOUNT would provide us count of the copy whether it is a first copy, second copy and others. We would use this field to print the owner of the copy.

We would define a string, which would hold the name of the copy (bank copy and others) depending on the value of SFSY-COPYCOUNT. Define a variable in the global definition as shown below:

Now select your Copies window, right click – Select Create Flow Logic Program Lines

Enter the following code:

Do not forget to enter the variable TEXT in the output parameters.

Now create a text by selecting the Copies window, right click Create Text.

In this, just enter the field name as shown below by selecting insert field.

Now include a text in the Main window as well with some content.

Save and activate. Test your Smart Form.

In the print preview screen, enter the number of copies as 3

Check the output:

9.Smart Forms - Working with Loop

By Venkat

Step1: Provide the name of the smart form is YDEMO_LOOP on the initial screen of the smart form and meaningful description.

Step2: Now go to Global definitions where we can define the Global data, Types, Initialization and etc.

Define Structure using Types Parameter as shown below. In Types parameters we usually define user defined data types.

Step3: Now define the internal table and work area in Global Data parameter.

Step4: In Initialization parameter, we can write a code as shown below. We have to mention the output result in the output parameter so that we can use it further. Here in this case we are outputting IT_TAB and we are going to use this IT_TAB further in the LOOP in the Flow Logic.

Step5: Create a LOOP statement as shown below.

Step6: Now Loop the internal table.

Step7: To create the character, paragraph formats and Tabs, we use the smart style. The transaction for create smart style is SMARTSTYLE or we can be created the initial screen of SMARTFORMS. Here SMART STYLE is created to define Tab positions for the columns.

Step8: Create a node for PARAGRAPH FORMAT as shown below.

The following screen appears.

Step9: Now define the Tabs as shown below.

Step10: Now Import SMART STYLE in to the SMART FORM as shown below.

Step11: Now create a text element for the loop statement.

Step12: Save and activate the smart form. The output is as shown below.

10.Designing Tables in Smart Forms

By Venkat

Step1: T-code for smart forms is “SMARTFORMS”. Provide the name of the smart form.

And provide the short text for this smart form “YDEMO_TABLE”.

Step2: Now go to Global definitions where we can define the Global data, Types, Initialization and etc.

Define Structure using Types Parameter as shown below. In Types parameters we usually define user defined data types.

Step3: Now define the internal table and work area in Global Data parameter.

Step4: In Initialization parameter, we can write a code as shown below. We have to mention the output result in the output parameter so that we can use it further. Here in this case we are outputting IT_TAB and we are going to use this IT_TAB further in the Table painter.

Step5: Now we create a Table painter as shown below.

Step6: Now we define number of table columns in %LTYPE1. Here, %LTYPE1 is renamed as LINE as shown below.

Here, in this scenario we have to divide the LINE area into 4 columns as we have to display 5 columns. To draw a line we have to select Draw lines and columns button as shown above.

Step7: Now we have to create Table line for Header and Main area of Table painter as shown below.

Here we have to provide line type. Here, the line type is LINE.

Step8: Provide the text for all columns.

Step9: Repeat the same process to the Main Area too.

Step10: Now Loop the internal table data as shown below.

Step11: Save and activate the smart form. Execute the smart form now. The output is as shown below.

11.Using Text Modules in Smart Forms

By Jaya Vani B, YASH Technologies

Step1: Go to transaction smart forms.

Step 2: Click on create. The following screen appears:

Step 3: Enter the required text and save.

Now this text can be included in our smart form.

Go back to smart forms initial screen, and create a smart form.

Step 4: In the Main window create a text box.

Step 5:In the text box general attributes TAB select Text module from the drop down list

Step 6: Give the name of the Text Module created and click on COPY button.

Step 7: The text in the text Module will be copied into the Text Editor.

Step 9: Save and activate. Execute and check the print preview.

12.Assigning a transport request for the translations related to the text in Smart Forms

By Phani Diwakar Marepalli

Scenario: To assign a transport request for the translations related to the text in Smart Forms.

18.Displaying a Smart form as PDF in Enterprise portal using WebDynpro for Java

By Nagaraju Donikena

I have seen many questions on how a smart form should be displayed in portal. To answer this question a person should have both Portal and ABAP knowledge.

By giving this basic information I want to make sure that displaying a smart form as PDF is a simple task.

Let me start from R/3 side

Create a smart form. Here I have created a simple smart form which displays “Welcome to SAP Smart forms”.

Now create a function module with the following export parameter:

Place the following code in the function module

data :

lv_fnam type RS38L_FNAM,

gs_control TYPE ssfctrlop,

gs_output_options TYPE ssfcompop,

gs_otfdata TYPE itcoo,

gs_job_output_info TYPE ssfcrescl,

gt_otfdata TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF itcoo INITIAL SIZE 0.

CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'

EXPORTING

formname = 'YNAG_TEST_PDF'

IMPORTING

FM_NAME = lv_fnam

EXCEPTIONS

NO_FORM = 1

NO_FUNCTION_MODULE = 2

OTHERS = 3 .

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

CLEAR gs_job_output_info.

CLEAR gs_job_output_info-otfdata.

MOVE :

'X' TO gs_control-no_dialog,

'X' TO gs_control-getotf,

'LOCL'(047) TO GS_OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDDEST.

CALL FUNCTION lv_fnam

EXPORTING

CONTROL_PARAMETERS = gs_control

OUTPUT_OPTIONS = gs_output_options

USER_SETTINGS = space

IMPORTING

JOB_OUTPUT_INFO = gs_job_output_info

EXCEPTIONS

FORMATTING_ERROR = 1

INTERNAL_ERROR = 2

SEND_ERROR = 3

USER_CANCELED = 4

OTHERS = 5 .

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

*Populate OTF data table

LOOP AT gs_job_output_info-otfdata INTO gs_otfdata.

APPEND gs_otfdata TO gt_otfdata.

CLEAR gs_otfdata.

ENDLOOP. " LOOP AT t_outtab-otfdata

DATA: lv_bytes TYPE p,

lv_bin_file type xstring,

gt_pdfdata TYPE STANDARD TABLE

OF tline

INITIAL SIZE 0.

* Convert OTF into PDF

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'

EXPORTING

format = 'PDF'

max_linewidth = 255

IMPORTING

bin_filesize = lv_bytes

BIN_FILE = bin_file

TABLES

otf = gt_otfdata

lines = gt_pdfdata

EXCEPTIONS

err_max_linewidth = 1

err_format = 2

err_conv_not_possible = 3

OTHERS = 4.

Make sure that the function module is marked remote enabled.

With this we are done on the R/3 side.

In NWDS (Net Weaver Developer Studio) create an Adaptive RFC model which points to the FM created in R/3.

Give model name

Now create an application to display the PDF

Insert a frame inside the view

Internal is a value node and url is value attribute of type string.

Place the following code in Init method

public void wdDoInit()

{

//@@begin wdDoInit()

Ynag_Test_Pdf_1_Input input = new Ynag_Test_Pdf_Input();

wdContext.nodeYnag_Test_Pdf_Input().bind(input);

try {

wdContext.currentYnag_Test_Pdf_InputElement().modelObject().execute();

} catch (WDDynamicRFCExecuteException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

wdContext.currentContextElement().setSdfgdsfsd(e.getMessage());

} wdContext.currentInternalElement().setUrl(convertXStringToUrl(wdContext.currentOutputElement().getBin_File()));

//@@end

}

//@@begin others

public String convertXStringToUrl(byte[] doc_content){

String url = "";

WDWebResourceType webResType = WDWebResourceType.PDF;

IWDWebResource webResource = WDWebResource.getWebResource(doc_content, webResType);

try {

url = webResource.getURL();

} catch (WDURLException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

return url;

}

//@@end

If you are using single sign on make sure to enable User authentication in the application parameters.

User details are required for this as it is using Single sign on to connect to R/3.

In this case we have hard coded the Smart form to be used.

If you want it in dynamic way FM interfaces need to be changed accordingly.

19,Label printing using Smart forms

By Sushil Choudhary, Tata Consultancy Services

It is believed that SAP has not provided any functionary to create labels in Smart form and this is considered as one of its disadvantage. In this document we will learn how to create labels using Smart form.

To understand this document you should have fair idea about how Smart form works. Also this document will not explain the programming part required to fetch the data which is used to create labels.

Below is the kind of output we expect form this label printing form.

Step1:-

Suppose we have all the data used to create labels available in our Smart form in table IT_FINAL which is exported thorough driver program to Smart form.

Now our requirement is to print the labels in the manner shown below.

Label1 Label2

Label3 Label4

Label5 Label6

i.e. odd labels on left side and even on right. Your requirement might vary from this one and you need to do the changes in layout and logic accordingly.

To implement this requirement cerate 5 secondary window and a main window all of the size of label box, in 1st page of Smart form as shown below.

Last window which print the last label on the page should be the main window, so that the next page will be triggered if more labels needs to be printed.

Step2:-

In the Global Data Initialization section of the smart form

Every row in the table IT_FINAL represents 1 label.

As per the current requirement every 6th row will cerate last label on the page and any further row if exist will trigger the next page.

Move every 6th row from IT_FINAL to IT_MAIN and delete the same from IT_FINAL.

Now we have IT_FINAL which contain data to be printed in 5 secondary windows and IT_MAIN which contain data for main window.

Step3:-

Create 5 work areas wa_1, wa_2, wa_3, wa_4, wa_5 of the type of line of IT_FINAL in the global declaration area.

Write code to move 1st 5 rows from IT_FINAL to the above declared work areas and then delete those 5 rows form internal; table as shown in the below screen-shot.

Step 4:-

Now create a text node in every window and pass the label data from wa_1 to text node of 1st secondary window and so on.

Every Node has a condition that it will execute only if the corresponding work area value is not initial.

And instead of window for every node tick the checkbox to draw frame lines, so that frame is printed only if the text node has data to print.

Step 5:-

Now in the Main window create a table node in the table painter create a line type with one row whose width is equal to the width of label to be printed.

Under the data tab pass IT_MAIN.

.

Step 6:-

Now in the Main WindowMain Area of table create a row with line type created above and in the cell create a text node and pass the corresponding data which needs to be printed in the label.

Step 7:-

Create a command line after table node which will call page1 itself

On the condition that IT_FINAL is not initial.

The reason why command line is used is suppose we have 15 labels to be printed then it will be like Page1->6 Page2-> 6 and Page3->3 labels respectively.

Initially IT_FINAL will have 13 and IT_MAIN will have 2 rows which are for 6th and 12th label. After 12th label is printed main table will not have any more data to print. The command line will check if any more labels are yet to be printed by checking entries in IT_FINAL table. If yes it will trigger 3rd page which print the last three labels.

Output Page1:-

Output Page2:-
