HI,

here are the some FAQs on SMART forms please read it it might help you to resolve your query.

Is it possible to migrate a SAPscript form to a Smart Form?

Smart Forms provides a migration tool for this purpose which migrates layout and texts of a SAPscript form to a Smart Form. It does not migrate SAPscript form logic of the print program. Using Smart Forms, this logic is described by the tree structure of the Form Builder. The effort involved in migrating it depends on the complexity of the print program.

Which Basis Release do I need to use SAP Smart Forms?

SAP Smart Forms is available as of R/3 Basis Release 4.6C.

I have heard that Smart Forms replaces SAPscript. What does "replace" mean?

It does not mean that SAPscript is removed from the Basis shipment. Even as of Basis Release 4.6C, SAPscript remains part of the SAP standard and there are no plans to remove it. Since Smart Forms is currently, and will continue to be, the tool for form maintenance for mySAP.com solutions, our further development efforts will focus on Smart Forms, not on SAPscript.

Do we have to migrate all SAPscript forms to Smart Forms?

There is no point in migrating all SAPscript forms already in use. Since SAPscript can still be used and will be available in the future, there is no need to. If you plan to migrate a SAPscript form, it is recommended that you check whether benefit is worth the effort involved

Conversion of SAPSCRIPT to SMARTFORMS

SAP provides a conversion for SAPscript documents to SMARTforms.

This is basically a function module, called FB_MIGRATE_FORM. You can start this function module by hand (via SE37), or create a small ABAP which migrates all SAPscript forms automatically.

You can also do this one-by-one in transaction SMARTFORMS, under

Utilities -> Migrate SAPscript form.

You could also write a small batch program calling transaction SMARTFORMS and running the migration tool.

SmartForms System Fields

Within a form you can use the field string SFSY with its system fields. During form processing the system replaces these fields with the corresponding values. The field values come from the SAP System or are results of the processing.

System fields of Smart Forms

&SFSY-DATE&

Displays the date. You determine the display format in the user master record.

&SFSY-TIME&

Displays the time of day in the form HH:MM:SS.

&SFSY-PAGE&

Inserts the number of the current print page into the text. You determine the format of the page number (for example, Arabic, numeric) in the page node.

&SFSY-FORMPAGES&

Displays the total number of pages for the currently processed form. This allows you to include texts such as'Page x of y' into your output.

&SFSY-JOBPAGES&

Contains the total page number of all forms in the currently processed print request.

&SFSY-WINDOWNAME&

Contains the name of the current window (string in the Window field)

&SFSY-PAGENAME&

Contains the name of the current page (string in the Page field)

&SFSY-PAGEBREAK&

Is set to 'X' after a page break

&SFSY-MAINEND&

Is set as soon as processing of the main window on the current page ends

&SFSY-EXCEPTION&

Contains the name of the raised exception. You must trigger your own exceptions, which you defined in the form interface, using the user_exception macro (syntax: user_exception <exception name >).
