f_cemunal — Fri, 12 Sep 2014 11:53:26 GMT

Hello again masters,

i am trying to print smartform page for 2 times. i am using tdcopies parameter for that but it is still printing for once. what am i not doing ?

here is my code :


data : gv_smart TYPE rs38l_fnam,
       con_pa  type ssfctrlop,
          out_op  type ssfcompop.


INITIALIZATION.
out_op-tdcopies = 002.
START-OF-SELECTION.
perform smartform.

form smartform.


   "IF NOT itab_tb[] IS INITIAL.
     CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
       EXPORTING
         formname = 'Z_HEDIYECEKI_DENEME'
       IMPORTING
         fm_name  = gv_smart.


     call function gv_smart
     exporting
       control_parameters = con_pa
       output_options     = out_op
       user_settings      = space
       it_data            = itab_tb
     exceptions
       formatting_error   = 1
       internal_error     = 2
       send_error         = 3
       user_canceled      = 4
       others             = 5.


endform.

Hi Unal,

Alternate

Do 2 times.

Call function 'SF_FMname'.

ENDDO.

Thanks,

Anil

Hi,

Some printer servers (host spool systems) do not handle the copy counter sent by R/3 spool system. What's the setting in SPAD for copy counter on the output device you ar using:

and can you try "Pass Copies as Separate Output Request" if it is not yet set?

Edit in: and is there no exception processing just because you shortended code for posting here, or is there really no exception processing after FM calls..? Please... if someone (possibly "fresher") having to look for hours to get to the source of wierd problems after inheriting your work (and then cursing when he/she finally sees missing exception processing) does not worry you, every time somebody neglects to process exceptions when programming with smartforms, enraged programming gods kill a kitten, and a timid "fresher" somewhere is made to do SAP assignment before being given training, guidance and friendly encouragement, and Larry Ellison's "henchmen" get to badmouth HANA... Please, think of the "freshers" and kittens At least take the exceptions out of the call so the thing dumps, should anything untoward happen...

cheers

Janis

yep i have done it.

there is parameter called tdnewid. it has to be checked to send a new request for multiple printing.

thank you for your answers.

regards.
