SMARTFORMS - Step by Step Tutorial

Former Member — Tue, 16 Oct 2007 15:16:09 GMT

Hi All,

I am looking for a step-by-step detail example for Smart Forms. It would be great if it was up-to-date and not including the now extinct COMPLEX STRUCTURE option.

Many Thanks,

Hi Dipesh,

Please find below the tutorial.

A Simple Smartform Tutorial

SAP Smartforms can be used for creating and maintaining forms for mass printing in SAP Systems. The output medium for Smartforms support printer, fax, e-mail, or the Internet (by using the generated XML output).

According to SAP, you need neither have any programming knowledge nor use a Script language to adapt standard forms. However, basic ABAP programming skills are required only in special cases (for example, to call a function module you created or for complex and extensive conditions).

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.

Calling SMARTFORMS from your ABAP program.
Collecting all the table data in your program, and pass once to SMARTFORMS
SMARTFORMS
Declare your table type in :-
Global Settings -> Form Interface
Global Definintions -> Global Data
Main Window -> Table -> DATA
Written by : SAP Hints and Tips on Configuration and ABAP/4 Programming
http://sapr3.tripod.com

TABLES: MKPF.

DATA: FM_NAME TYPE RS38L_FNAM.

DATA: BEGIN OF INT_MKPF OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE MKPF.

DATA: END OF INT_MKPF.

SELECT-OPTIONS S_MBLNR FOR MKPF-MBLNR MEMORY ID 001.

SELECT * FROM MKPF WHERE MBLNR IN S_MBLNR.

MOVE-CORRESPONDING MKPF TO INT_MKPF.

APPEND INT_MKPF.

ENDSELECT.

At the end of your program.
Passing data to SMARTFORMS

call function 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'

exporting

formname = 'ZSMARTFORM'

VARIANT = ' '
DIRECT_CALL = ' '

IMPORTING

FM_NAME = FM_NAME

EXCEPTIONS

NO_FORM = 1

NO_FUNCTION_MODULE = 2

OTHERS = 3.

if sy-subrc <> 0.

WRITE: / 'ERROR 1'.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

endif.

call function FM_NAME

EXPORTING
ARCHIVE_INDEX =
ARCHIVE_INDEX_TAB =
ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS =
CONTROL_PARAMETERS =
MAIL_APPL_OBJ =
MAIL_RECIPIENT =
MAIL_SENDER =
OUTPUT_OPTIONS =
USER_SETTINGS = 'X'
IMPORTING
DOCUMENT_OUTPUT_INFO =
JOB_OUTPUT_INFO =
JOB_OUTPUT_OPTIONS =

TABLES

GS_MKPF = INT_MKPF

EXCEPTIONS

FORMATTING_ERROR = 1

INTERNAL_ERROR = 2

SEND_ERROR = 3

USER_CANCELED = 4

OTHERS = 5.

if sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

endif.

Additional Fonts for your SMARTFORMS

You can create additional fonts and style with transaction SMARTSTYLES

This can then be define in the paragraph and character formats, which you can then be assign to texts and fields in the Smart Form.

The character formats includes effects such as superscript, subscript, barcode and font attributes.

Also, you can refer to the below link for the explanation:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/4b/83fb42df8f11d3969700a0c930660b/frameset.htm

In case you have any further clarifications,do let me know.

Go through this<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/3c5d9ae3-0501-0010-0090-bdfb2d458985">EXAMPLE</a>

Sample steps...

SMART fORM

USING TABLE IN Smart Form

1) Tcode --> SmartForms

2) Form name --> Z_SF_TEST Create

3) Under Global settings

a) Form Interface

Table Tab

ITAB LIKE EKPO

b) GLOBAL Definitions

WA_NETPR LIKE EKPO-NETPR

In smart forms if we want to display quantity and currency fields. We can't directly display currency field and quantity fields

For that we have to create an extra variable in global definitions

Ex: netpr FIELD of EKPO

CREATE program lines and specify WA_NETWR = itab-netpr.

4) RT CLick on main Window

CREATE --> TABLE

Click Table painter

DEFAULT %LTYPE will be Created

a) If you want more like Header footer etc add by rt click on %LTYPE1

Table (Tab)

%LTYPE Radio(SELECT) 5 CM 5 CM 6 CM

CLICK on DATA (Tab)

INTERNAL TABLE ITAB LIKE ITAB

5)RT click on table control and create --> program lines

General attribute (Tab)

INPUT PARAMETER OUTPUT PARAMETER

itab WA_NETPR

Code Area

WA_NETWR = ITAB-NETPR.

6) RT CLcick on table ctl and create 3 text to display the fields

a) % text1 +button(insert field)

FIELD name &itab-ebeln&

Output options (tab)

Check New line LINETYPE %Ltype1

check new cell

b) % text2

& itab-ebelp&

output options

check new cell

c) % text2

& wa_netpr&

output options

check new cell

Report ac

Tables ekpo.

Data: itab1 like ekpo occurs 0 with header line.

select * into table itab1 from ekpo.

Call function module

Text “%TEXT1 New text1” gets inserted. Now enter the name and description for the same and also populated the value for grand total

Text = “GRD_TOT_DISP”, Description = “GRAND TOTAL DISPLAY” and Variable V_GRDTOTAL has been populated to display the grand total in the form.

60. Inorder to display the Current Page Number and Total Number of pages in the form we need a separate window and to obtain the same right click the “FIRST First Page” and the insert window.

Window “%WINDOW1 New window 1” get inserted under the first page.

61. Enter the Window name and description (e.x. Window = “PG_WIN” and Description “PAGE NUMBER WINDOW”)

Set the window co-ordinates for page number window “PG_WIN” as given below:

62. Inorder to display the page numbers we have to insert a “Text” by right clicking the “PG_WIN PAGE NUMBER WINDOW”.

Text “%TEXT1 New text 1” gets inserted and now enter the text name and description.

Text = “PG_DISP”, Description = “PAGE NUMBER DISPLAY” and Page Number gets displayed from the Transparent Table “SFSY”.

63. General Screen Shot of Entire Left Sub-tree:

64. Form output:

65. SOME MORE FURTHER MODIFICATIONS / ADDITIONAL OPTIONS IN THE ABOVE CREATED FORM:

Condition-1: Create second page and company logo should get printed only in the first page and not in the second page. Similarly, company address window should get printed only in the last page and not in other pages.

To create the second page right click the “FIRST First Page” in the left sub-tree.

66. Another page gets inserted with name “%PAGE1 New page 1”.

67. Enter Page name and description for the inserted new page (e.x. Page = “SECOND” and Description = “Second Page”) and set the next page as inserted second page and select the mode as increase counter as shown below:

68. Now change the “FIRST First Page”s Next page as “SECOND” and change the mode as Initialize counter.

69. Now copy the Main, Company Address, Page No windows from “FIRST First Page “ to “SECOND Second Page”.

70. Arrange all the windows under the Main window in both first and second page. Inorder to restrict the company logo to be printed only in the first page, go to the first page and double click the “LOGO_WIN LOGO WINDOW” and select the “Conditions” tab and Check the “only on first page” Check Box.

71. Output showing the main window got printed only in the first page and not in the second page and so on ….

First Page: With LOGO

Second Page: Without LOGO

72. Inorder to restrict the Company address to be printed only in the last page and not in the remaining pages, double click the “ADD_WIN ADDRESS WINDOW” in the first page and Check the “only after end of main window” Check Box. Repeat the same process for the second page also.

73. Output showing the address window got printed only in the last page and not in the first page and so on ….

First Page: without company address

Last page (second page): with company address window

74. Condition-2: Purchase order’s whose value is more than 5000 only should get displayed / printed.

Inorder to achieve the same, right click the “PO_LOOP PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER LOOP” and select the “Loop”.

75. “%LOOP1 New loop 1” gets inserted

76. Enter Loop name and description.

77. Select the “Data” Tab Loop the Internal I_EKPO as shown below:

78. Inorder to check the subtotal value for each purchase order (i.e. purchase order value should be more than 5000), Insert a program lines under the new loop inserted.

79. “%CODE1 New program lines 1” gets inserted

80. Enter the name and description for Program lines. Before calculating the subtotal declare two variables one for total and another for subtotal in Global definitions. Calculate the Subtotal as shown below:

Input parameters: “WA_EKPO-MENGE, WA_EKPO-NETPR, V_TOT”; Output Parameters: “V_VALUE”.

81. Now we calculated the subtotal for each purchase order. Inorder to restrict the display of purchase orders whose values are more than 5000, we need to insert “Alternate” and for the same right click the “PO_LOOP PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER LOOP” and from the menu path create  select the “Alternate”.

82. “%CONDITION1 New alternate 1” gets inserted.

83. Enter Alternate name and description. Select the “General attributes” Tab and Enter the condition of subtotal > 5000 as shown:

84. Now, move “PO_NO_DISPLAY PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER DISPLAY, OI_HEAD ORDER ITEM HEADER, OI_DISPLAY ORDER ITEM DISPLAY, SUB_TOTAL_DISPLAY DISPLAY SUBTOTAL and CLR_VAR New program lines” under the “TRUE” part.

85. In the “FALSE” part (i.e. If subtotal value is less than 5000, then clear the variable), insert program lines and code as shown:

86. Only those purchase order whose value is more than 5000 gets displayed – First Page.

Only those purchase order whose value is more than 5000 gets displayed – Second Page.

87. Condition-3 Each Purchase Order should get printed in a new page. Logo should get printed in the first page along with the first purchase order and similarly, Grand total should get printed in the last page with the last purchase order.

88. Inorder to achieve this, when the first successful purchase order whose value is more than 5000 is found then increase one counter variable by 1 (this is required because the “New page command” should not get triggered in the first page itself”) and for the same we have to insert a “Program lines” under the “TRUE” part of “CHK_COND SUBTOTAL CONDITION”.

Before increasing the counter variable first declare the counter variable in the “Global definitions” part.

Output parameters: V_COUNTER.

89. Inorder to avoid triggering “New page command” in the first page, we have to insert “Command” in the “TRUE” part of “CHK_COND SUBTOTAL CONDITION” by right clicking the same as shown below:

90. “%COMMAND1 New command 1” gets inserted.

91. Enter name and description for the inserted Alternative. Select “General attributes” Tab and check whether for the counter variable is more than 1.

92. If the counter variable is more than 1 means, we got the second successful purchase order whose value is more than 5000. Hence, we can trigger new page command here and for the same right click the “TRUE” part in “NEW_PG NEW PAGE COMMAND” as shown:

“%COMMAND1 New command 1” gets inserted

93. Enter the name and description for Command and select the “General attributes” Tab and Check the “Go to new page” and select the page as “SECOND” as shown below:

94. The following is the output: First Page with company logo and without company address window, first purchase order whose value is more than 5000.

Second page: without company logo and with company address window for the last purchase order whose value is more than 5000.

95. The new PROBLEM we faced when we create the smart form is page number. Total Page Number got displayed as “*” as shown:

96. Inorder to solve the above problem Double Click the “PG_DISP PAGE NUMBER DISPLAY” and Click the Text Editor.

Upon clicking the text editor it will take you to the following screen:

Cut (Ctrl+X) the “SFSY-FORMPAGES” and delete the remaining things as shown.

Go to the menu path Insert  Symbols  New as shown

Which will result you in the following popup and fill the popup as shown.

97. It will takes you to the following screen.

98. Now replace &SFSY-FORMPAGES4(4CZ)& as &SFSY-FORMPAGES0(4CZ)&

99. Press back and then check, activate and execute – You can observe that the problem has resolved.

100. Enjoy and try to create more smart forms……..

Reward Points if useful....
