[Former Member]

Hi experts. I have a task with prd form. I need to display data in the pdf form. But I don't know the number of columns, it will be depend on the data. It can be 10 or 20, I don't know. Each page have to have header and footer with number of page. Do you know how to realize this task.

For me you have to separate two points

-> dynamic table

-> PDF

there is a lot of doc about dynamic table

PDF, you just have to print the result of your report, and convert the OTF into PDF using function CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF Like in program RSTXPDFT4

you could also,  call a report and catch the result using :

Call the report and catch the result

* Perform the program and export the restult in memory.
   SUBMIT (p_prog) VIA SELECTION-SCREEN AND RETURN EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY.

This command will call the selection screen of the report, and get the result in memory, you will not see the result in the screen.

* Catch the memory of the report result.
   CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
     TABLES
       listobject = it_listobj
     EXCEPTIONS
       not_found  = 1
       OTHERS     = 2.

it's not suit for me, because I have display in special form with header and footer on each page

[FredericGirod]

So, use Smartforms, but I'm not sure you could do something dynamic in smartforms ..

[krish469]

You can use events TOP_OF_PAGE  and END OF PAGE, which will get triggered when a spool is generated from list display or grid display.

Hi,

Develop a classical report with Header and Footer (Top of page, End of page) and then convert that into PDF form and download it.

You can output your report into a spool then capture the spool and convert it to a pdf file which you can download.  Please see code below.

  call function 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'

    exporting

     authority              = space

      copies                 = '1'

     cover_page             = space

                   spool parameters mstr_print_parms

                   via selection-screen
