WDA & offline Adobe form solution required

Former Member

Hi Experts,

I have to develop an application in WDA which integrates already created (in SFP) interactive adobe form with standard layout.

WDA application is showing 3 tables on 3 different tabs of a view. On each table there is a column with which is to open/save/download the interactive adobe form.

I have developmend the WDA application and now want to integrate the interactive adobe form with it.

Can anyone please tell me the solution for this so that on click of a table column (text on each row) it will either open that adobe form or it will download it to local PC so that it can be filled by the user and submit it later on.

It will be good if someone can tell me in detail like in which view/window i have to put the intercative form UI element & what to be coded.

Cheers,

Nik.

Hi Nikhil,

If you just want the user to be able to open the Adobe form up on clicking the text in a particular columns then you neednt go for that complex an approach. Just have the desired PDF file contents bound to your Web Dynpro components context node as an XSTRING. You then need to change the cell editors of the particular column to a FileDownload UI element from the default TextView. So now whenever the user clicks on a cell within this column he would be able to download & save the PDF file for later usage.

Hi Uday,

Didnt get your Point "Just have the desired PDF file contents bound to your Web Dynpro components context node as an XSTRING." Is it like taking a attribute of type XSTRING and bind the Form content which i get from

call function fm_name

EXPORTING

/1bcdwb/docparams = fp_docparams

zapp = app

text = text

IMPORTING

/1BCDWB/FORMOUTPUT = output

EXCEPTIONS

usage_error = 1

system_error = 2

internal_error = 3

others = 4.

XSTING bind using set_attribute( output-pdf). " psudo code

The interactive form is of standard type & when i pass the form name in templatesource it will automatically create a context node with the form interface.

If i will get data in XSTING Type attribute how i will bind it to the form context which has form parent nodes, its child nodes & other attributes?

Also please tell In which view I will put my interactive adobe form?. The problem is where ever i put my adobe form it opens as and when that view opens up as a PDF. If i check it as interactive enable, the web page goes to and endless loop.
