Hi uma,

Even though I found the place where it says that the smartforms are client independent, I didn't see the term workbench used anywhere(I am referring standard SAP help).

But I can just make a guess here. If you see the development of SAP Scirpt form Vs. a smartform, for a sapscript form, you need to work in SE38(a workbench tool) to write the code that fills and prints the form. Whereas, for a smartform, everything is done within the smartform definition transaction itself. You don't need to go out of that transaction. The coding is automatically generated and even if you want to insert some coding, you can do it from within the same transaction. You can draw an anology with Query development. In both cases you don't use SE38 for coding. Coding is generated by the system. So smartforms is more geared for power users.

Hope that helps,

Kumar

Hi,

confusing question.

The (ABAP) wokbench is a transaction clustering lots of actions on development objects. The function module created when activating a particular smartform, can be analyzed but must not be changed in the workbench.

One thing is for sure: Both workbench and smartform are weather-independent.
