smartform and webform PDF

[Former Member]

hi All,

I am a R/3 programmer and i am assigned a query of ESS which is developed in BSP and HTMLB. There is a smartform and that is not picking up the values properly so i m asked to sort that problem out. Basically they have designed the form such a way that once i go to that page and that i push the 'Print' button, the output of the form comes straight in the pdf format. Now generally there is a call 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME' to call the form in abap, is it the same in BSP??

also if it is so i did not see the call in my forms. So is it possible to conver the OTF straight to PDF without calling the smartform . I knw its confusing but i have tried to put it as clear as i can.

please ask me further questions if u feel the need.

thanks in advance,

Reena..

hi

good

did you debug the program properly?

did you see how the data flow from abap to bsp?

did you check wheather there is any javascript they are using as the inteface between ABAP and BSP page ?

go through this links, hope this ll give you the idea about Smartforms implementation in BSP.
