Shift problem in SAPScript Forms after patch installation

[Former Member]

Dear all,

In our SAP System, some SAPScript invoices could be displayed and printed out succesfully before the patch installation.

After a patch is installed to the system, some SAPScript forms are a bit corrupted due to character shift problems.

In the MAIN window of our SAPScript form there is a list of for invoiced materials. Each line is defined as long text line with "=" symbol. When we display a form example, it is noticed that some column information is shifted to the left by ignoring space characters.

What may be the problem? I think the CRx, Rx, Lx, CLx notations for

character variables cannot be evaluated by the system.There are a lot of patchs installed to the system. I see some HR related support packages too.

This is the code part:

= &OUTMAMULCINSI(C35)&&OUTMKT2(CR5)&&OUTBR2(CR2)&&SPACE(1)&

= &OUTKDV(C3)&

= &OUTBIRIM(CR2)&&OUTMIKTAR(CR12)&

= &OUTFIYAT(CR6)&&OUTBRUTTUTAR(CR10)&&OUTISKONTO1(R6)&&OUTISKONTO2(R6)&

= &OUTISKONTO3(R6)&&OUTISKONTO4(R6)&&OUTISKONTO5(R6)&

= &OUTISKONTOTUTARI(CR9)&&OUTNETTUTAR(CR10)&

Lets assume that the variables &OUTISKONTO4(R6)& is NULL. What I expected is even it is a NULL variable, it should hold an empty space with 6 characters in the form. But it doesn't occur like this. The other variables from the right is shifted to the left by ignoring the space.

Layout example:

Before patch install: (Correct)

15310000000 PINAR ET 220 KG. 121,40 TRY 128,40 TRY

After patch install: (Problem)

15310000000PINAR ET 220 KG. 121,40 TRY 128,40 TRY

Thank you for your interest.

Hi

Answer is pure assumption

Pls check the OSS note

Note 782140 - OCS: Known problems with Support Packages in Basis Rel. 6.20

In the above note it is mentioned

"SAPKE47064: Incorrect print screen when you print SAPscript forms"

Pls take opinion from Basis before implementing the note

Thank you for your quick reply 😃

Yes, I think my problem is about installed HR related Support Packages. I checked that note and run the necessery report to reload the SAPScripts forms to the system but the problem still goes on. I have SAPKE47085 SAP HR. But the note prefers solutions for the HR Support packages till SAPKE47076.
