Converting OTF data from script to Spool Request

Former Member — Wed, 22 Dec 2010 09:29:32 GMT

Hello,

Is there any way to convert OTF data into Spool Request.

Actual scenario is for the Order Acknowledgement form they have configured the output type for Print Medium and here the spool is generated through Close_Form . Based on the spool no they are converting the spool to PDF and then placing a copy in the Unix Directory.

They have also configured the form for Fax Medium , but here in the close_form they are getting the Fax number instead of spool number. As this way it just Fax the output to required destination , user require a copy of the output should be converted to PDF and then it has to be placed in Unix directory as it is happening for print medium.

The problem here in the close form for first case , i can see the spool id but in the second case that is not happening . So only OTF data is available with me. So is there any way where i can pass OTF data get spool id . So that if i have spool id rest will be taken care by my existing logic.

I Appreciate your valuable inputs.

Thanks,

Subash

Use FM CONVERT_OTF to convert the OTF format to PDF doc. To this FM pass format as PDF in the Export paramet.

Thanks

Print the OTF data using FM PRINT_OTF. You will get the Spool Id from export parameters.
