ABAP and SmartForms

Former Member — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 12:50:50 GMT

Hello everyone

I have problem with my abap program and form created in Smart Forms. I want to call my form from ABAP program and pass to table parameter, table (data: begin name occurs 0,...end name) which is create in that abap program. When I'm in smart form i want to declare table type like that table from abap, do something with it, some calculations in that table declared in smart forms, and print the results.

But when I try to do this, I receive error, that table which is type for data in smart forms, doesn't exist 😕

Hi,

Create a Table type in SE11 with the same fields in SE38 table.

Table types are always without header line. so that you need to create a separate work area also in your form.

hi,

Please pass the internal table from the program to Smartform using the generated FUNCTION MODULE in the Program and Receive in the smartform in FORM INTERFACE.You will be able to declare the internal table which has been created in the DATA deictionary.

Any clarification please revert back

here is the step by step which may help u as a starter ,

1. Create a new smartforms

Transaction code SMARTFORMS

Create new smartforms call ZSMART

2. Define looping process for internal table

Pages and windows

First Page -> Header Window (Cursor at First Page then click Edit -> Node -> Create)

Here, you can specify your title and page numbering

&SFSY-PAGE& (Page 1) of &SFSY-FORMPAGES(Z4.0)& (Total Page)

Main windows -> TABLE -> DATA

In the Loop section, tick Internal table and fill in

ITAB1 (table in ABAP SMARTFORM calling function) INTO ITAB2

3. Define table in smartforms

Global settings :

Form interface

Variable name Type assignment Reference type

ITAB1 TYPE Table Structure

Global definitions

Variable name Type assignment Reference type

ITAB2 TYPE Table Structure

4. To display the data in the form

Make used of the Table Painter and declare the Line Type in Tabstrips Table

e.g. HD_GEN for printing header details,

IT_GEN for printing data details.

You have to specify the Line Type in your Text elements in the Tabstrips Output

options.

Tick the New Line and specify the Line Type for outputting the data.

Declare your output fields in Text elements

Tabstrips - Output Options

For different fonts use this Style : IDWTCERTSTYLE

For Quantity or Amout you can used this variable &GS_ITAB-AMOUNT(12.2)&

5. Calling SMARTFORMS from your ABAP program

REPORT ZSMARTFORM.
