SAP Adobe Form

The document describes the steps to create a simple Adobe form and call it from an ABAP program. Step 1 involves creating a form interface with importing parameters. Step 2 is to create and design the form, binding importing parameters to the form fields. Step 3 is to create an ABAP driver program that calls the generated function module to open a spool job, pass parameters to the form, and close the spool job. Step 4 is to execute the driver program.

SAP Adobe Form - Steps to create simple ADOBE Form and calling it

from ABAP Program


SAP ADOBE Forms is part of SAP Web Application Server. To develop SAP Adobe
forms you will require the Adobe Life Cycle Designer installed in your system and Adobe
Document Services (ADS) installed and configured on the server.

Step 1: Create the Form Interface

Go to transaction SFP(Form Builder).

Create Interface(ZOVH_INTERFACE) by selecting Interface radio button.

Provide interface Description and Select ABAP Dictionary-Based Interface as


Interface Type.

Save as Local object or transportable object.

Interface TabImportCreate three importing parameters(PERNR, ENAME,


BUKRS).

Save and Activate.

Step 2: Create and Design the Form

Go to transaction SFP(Form Builder).

Create Form(ZOVH_SIMPLE_FORM) by selecting Form radio button.

Provide form Description and provide Interface as ZOVH_INTERFACE created in


the above step.

Save as Local object or transportable object.

Context TabOpen Import nodeSelect all importing parameters(PERNR,


ENAME, BUKRS) by holding CTRL key, drag and drop parameters from Interface area
to Context area as shown in the screen shot.

Layout TabClick on Layout button. You can view form designer in larger.

Click on Data View tab on the form. Drag parameter(PERNR, ENAME and
BUKRS) and drop on to the form. By doing this binding will take place automatically.

Save and Activate. When you activate, system generate function module.

Step 3: Create ABAP Driver program to call Form

Go to transaction SE38(ABAP Editor) and create an executable


program ZTEST_SIMPLE_ADOBE.

Save as Local object or transportable object.

Program steps
o

Get the function module of generated Form


using FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME.

Open the spool job using function module FP_JOB_OPEN.

Call the generated function module.

Close the spool using function module FP_JOB_CLOSE.
