Smart Forms

Former Member

Hello,

We want to find a report/program that can be scheduled to run e.g. once a day to generate Smart Forms transported to the production environment.

Background:

Currently we have a problem every time a Smart Form is transported to production. The first few invoice print messages of our invoicing print batch get an error code saying that the Smart Form is not generated ("Unable to generate form X"). The Smart Form is then generated automatically, and the rest of the batch is processed succesfully.

We would like to be able to generate the newly transported forms using a scheduled report/program to avoid any invoices getting error codes.

Thanks for any suggestions,

Isabella

Hi Isabella,

you should have a look at this FM:

FB_GENERATE_FORM

HTH,

Isabella, I believe the problem could be lying with the lack of authorisation on the user part [ the user who is printing the newly tranported Smart form ]. Please check whether that is the case, 'coz the user would not be having the authorisation of activating a form, and the form when it is transported to production client could be lying unactivated. So try activating the smartform in the production client, once tranported, in the login which has all such authorisations.
