Smartform in web dynpro Abap

Posted on Aug 12, 2009 at 03:36 PM 17 Views

Hi,

I'm trying to implement a web dynpro abap with a smartform.

I used the "How to Display a Smartform as PDF document in Web Dynpro for ABAP" document that e can find on sdn.

My problem is that when the form is called, there is a dump

"Please maintain an output device in your user master data. ".

I copied the code in a report and the form is displayed.

Did I miss something?

    This workaround solution for smartForms sends the output to the Spool and then converts the spool to PDF. For it to work it has to have a printer id for the formatting to the spool. You must maintain a default printer in your user ID or pass in a printer into the output settings of the smartForms function module. Because all of this is occuring in the background, the smartForms function modules can't just popup a dialog asking for a printer.
