Hi Deepak,

You have to first add the custom field to the form by the steps mentioned by you anyways. This error could be occurring due to the compatibility issue between Internet Explorer 11 and Adobe. Which IE version are you using?

If you want to open forms using ALD in online mode, use Internet explorer version 9 / 10.

To open forms in online mode, you must adapt compatibility settings as below:

Check the IE status bar (it appears at the bottom of the browser) for the Bydesign url. If it shows Protected Mode: Then it needs to be set to Off for Bydesign url. To do so follow the steps listed below :

• Open Internet Explorer Tools -> Internet Options -> Security tab -> Select Trusted Sites zone.
• Check that under the Security Level for this zone, Enable Protected Mode checkbox is not ticked.
• Click on Sites button and enter the Bydesign url (if it’s not pre-filled) in the text box appearing before the Add button and click on the Add button.
• Now on visiting the Bydesign url, the protected mode should come as Off.

and then

In the Command bar, go to Tools , click to get a drop down and select Compatibility View settings. Here you can exercise any of the two options:

• Select the Checkbox Display all websites in Compatibility View and click on Close button. This will render all the websites accessed via IE9 in the Compatibility View.
• Add individual website to the Compatibility View. To do so, mention the byd-url in the Textbox adjacent to the Add button. The textbox comes prefilled with the website url in case the website is already open in the browser window. Click on the Add button and then click on Close. This will render the added website in Compatibility View when accessed via IE9.

If above step doesn't help resolve the error then follow below step.

Clean up the system environment temp folder.

• To know the path of the temp folder, go to Start Button, click on Run and type 'cmd' to open the command prompt.
• Type 'echo %temp%' in the command prompt. This would show the temp folder path. Also type 'echo %tmp%' and check that the folder path shown is same as that shown earlier.
• Navigate to the temp folder and clean up the files/folders present in temp folder. Even if all files/folders are not deleted , please try to clean up the Low folder inside the temp folder.

Thanks,

Hi,

Can you please try to download the form from "Form Template Maintainance" and do the necessary action and upload the new version, if possible?

Thanks

Hi Saurabh,

Thank you for the Response,

I have done the same thing but the problem is I am not getting custom fields there in Hierarchy or Data View in Adobe Live Cycle on uploading the form. Could you please guide me any other approach so that I will be getting custom fields in Adobe Live Cycle ?

Thanks,

Deepak

Hi Deepak,

There is one way through which you can add the custom fields in your form. Please follow the steps as mentioned below.

1. Click "Enhance Form" from PDI for extended BO.

2. Choose COPY button.

3. Once the new windows opens up then Copy the template as "As new Variant".

4. Publish the new copied form.

5. Now open the copied form using "Easy Form Editor".

6. Choose the section where you have added the field.

7. Then just save, Publish and Close the form again.

I have tested it at my end and it works.

Thanks

Hi Saurabh,

Thank you very much for quick response and effort but in my case this approach won't work. If I copy Survey Result Form then try to add fields with easy form editor, but required fields are not coming there i.e. Product description. Even if I click add field its not showing me product desc in pop up there too.

In ALD as I checked the required field is not coming in data binding and in data view structure. So I don't know to get these fields in survey result form. If you have any idea please let me know.

Thanks,

Deepak
