 For creating the watermark in the output of the print program follow the following steps –
1. First of all create the bitmap image of the text which is required to display as the watermark.
2. Then go to SE78 and upload the image there on document server as bitmap image with some suitable name.(This step will be clear with the example demo., given at the end)
3. Now we need to call this image in our SAP script. For that go to the page window where we have to display the watermark further create instance of the main window and create the element in it with some name and call the image with the BITMAP command under the same element.
4. Thereafter in the print program. After the start form, make call to this element which is created just now.
5. Immediately after above call, make a call to function module control_form and pass NEW_WINDOW to the command parameter of this function module.
6. Above steps will display the watermark in the output.
Step by step demo –
Let’s say we have to display a text ‘CONFIDENTIAL’ for watermark, for this follow the following steps –
1) First of all get the word CONFIDENTIAL in the MSPAINT that too in the desired fashion and save it somewhere lets say on desktop. It will look like as shown below.(take care while saving the image that this image will be gray in color)
2) Now go to SE78 you will find the screen like this –
Thereafter clicking the IMPORT button one window will pop up as shown below-
After clicking on the above marked place browser will open then select the desired bitmap file from the place where you have kept your image.
After importing this image, our bitmap image will be uploaded successfully.
3) At this stage image is ready to be called in our script. Now go to SE71 and open the SAP script in which we have to call this image. Get the page window where we want the watermark and create the instance of the main window as shown below.
4) Now create one element in the min window lets say ‘watermark’ as shown in the figure below.
5) Now for calling the graphics image keep the cursor on the line just below to the element ‘watermark’. And then go to menu INSERT-Graphics.
Now new window will appear as shown below.
After saying OK it will insert the line for adding the graphics into it as shown below.
6) Save activate the SAP script.
7) Now come to our print program and call the function module WRITE_FORM with main window and watermark element just after the start of form. Immediately after that call function module CONTROL_FORM passing NEW_WINDOW to the parameter COMMAND as shown below.
8) Save and activate the program.
9) That’s It.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
10) Run the program u will find the watermark in the output.
Problems –
1. After seeing the output u may see watermark displayed irregularly and output pages are increased that they were before.
Remedy - Decrease the size of the image, which we are creating in the start so that whole content will be accommodated in the space for main window. Because if data exceeds the size of the main window then it will automatically get printed in the next page.
