Hi Gurus,

I am new to SAP Scripts. I have created a form which contains a set of boxe as the fig below.

________________________________________________________________

DocNum

I am printing this top side of the page for a single invoice. If I want to print this for multiple invoices, for example if I am having 3 invoices then it should print 3 times on the same page.

like

Invoce 1

Invoice 2

Invoice 3.

Can any body please let me know how to print the same form on a single page multiple times.

Thanks,

Deepak.

Hi Anbu/Pawan,

Actually it is a standard program. I can not do internally any thing in the program.

Only what ever I can do is in the form. Let me tell you how I designed the form.

First I designed the boxes as below

BOX HEIGHT '0.7' CM WIDTH '3.4' CM FRAME 10 TW

BOX XPOS '3.4' CM HEIGHT '0.7' CM WIDTH '6.2' CM FRAME 10 TW

BOX XPOS '9.6' CM HEIGHT '0.7' CM WIDTH '3.4' CM FRAME 10 TW

BOX YPOS '0.7' CM HEIGHT '0.7' CM WIDTH '6.5' CM FRAME 10 TW

BOX XPOS '6.5' CM YPOS '.7' CM HEIGHT '.7' CM WIDTH '6.5' CM FRAME 10 TW

BOX YPOS '2.6' CM HEIGHT 1 CM WIDTH '9.6' CM FRAME 10 TW

BOX XPOS '9.6' CM YPOS '2.6' CM HEIGHT 1 CM WIDTH '3.4' CM FRAME 10 TW

BOX YPOS '3.8' CM HEIGHT '1.5' CM WIDTH 9 CM FRAME 10 TW

Then I fixed the texts and its values in each box by setting the positions.

Can you please tell me how to create these boxes multiple times with out chaging the print program.

DO I can use any loop statement.

Hi Pawan,

I am doing all this in Main window.

The position of the Main Window and boxes are fixed. Even the boxes are printing second time, but those are on the same position duplicating. Please tell me, how to change the position of this Main window for each invoice.

you have to call FM in this order..


OPEN_FORM "do not specify the form name

  START_FORM "specify form name here for Invoice 1
  END_FORM

  START_FORM "specify form name here for Invoice 2
  END_FORM

  START_FORM "specify form name here for Invoice 3
  END_FORM

CLOSE_FORM

You can continue using START_FORM and END_FORM as many time as you want to append output in single spool.

OPEN_FORM and CLOSE_FORM is used to open spool and close spool, however if you happens to have one form (sapscrpt) then you can specify formname in OPEN_FORM . However in you case you need use above FM START_FORM and END_FORM
