Sapscript Graphics: Transaction Codes Used

1) SAPScript uses symbols surrounded by ampersands (&) as placeholders for values that are filled during printing, such as dates, names, etc. There are system, standard, and program symbols. 2) Control commands are used with the format key (:/) to change text output and formatting. Commands include INCLUDE, DEFINE, ADDRESS, PROTECT, NEW-PAGE, IF-ENDIF, and PERFORM. 3) The PERFORM command calls ABAP subroutines from forms to get new data, passing and receiving values using internal tables of type ITCSY.

SAPScript Graphics

Transaction Codes Used SE71 : Form Painter SE72 : Style Maintenance SE73 : Font Maintenance SE78 : Sapscript Graphics Management RSTXLDMC : Import graphics as text . SYMBOLS Symbols are place holder for values in the forms and are filled during print formatting e.g. &DATE& ,&KNA1-NAME& . They are case insensitive and are surrounded by &. There are 3 types of symbols 1) System Symbols System symbols are system maintained and their value is provided by the system. These are as follow: DATE TIME HOURS MINUTES SECONDS PAGE NEXTPAGE DAY MONTH YEAR NAME_OF_DAY SPACE DEVICE 2)Standard Symbols Standard sumbols are user maintained by using transaction SM30 .These symbols are stored in table TTDG e.g &MFG& which stands for ' Your's Faithfully ' . 3)Program Symbols Program symbols are placeholder for database fields and global program symbols in the print program e.g &KNA1-NAME1& here the table KNA1 has alreadty been declared in the print program using TABLES statement.

CONTROL COMMANDS Control Commands are used to change text output , these are used with the format key /: in the format column e.g. INCLUDE MYTEXT OBJECT TEXT ID ST These are: INCLUDE DEFINE ADDRESS ... ENDADDRESS PROTECT ... ENDPROTECT NEW-PAGE IF ... ENDIF CASE .... ENDCASE PERFORM ... USING

INCLUDE name OBJECT name ID name PARAGRAPH name LANGUAGE name Include command is used to include standard text in a form.the text should be already defined by using transaction SO10. Here name is the name of text ID is used to classify text e.g. SDVD (SD related text) , ST (Standard text) OBJECT is used to specify type of object it an be TEXT , DOKU LANGUAGE is used to specify language like EN ,if ommited than logon language is used PARAGRAPH is used to specify the paragraph like C e.g. /:INCLUDE mytext OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE EN Here the standard text created in SO10 with name mytext is included in the form in language EN (English) DEFINE Define is used to define a symbol in the form i.e defining a variable and giving it a value . e.g. /:DEFINE &NAME& = 'Niraj Visnoi' /:DEFINE &SPECIAL& = ' 14 TH APRIL' ADDRESS ... ENDADDRESS ADDRESS and ENDADDRESS is used to specify the address which will be formatted according to the target country i.e the recipient country. e.g. /:ADDRESS sales PARAGRAPH C /:NAME &KNA1-NAME1& /:STREET &KNA1-STRAS& /:POSTCODE &KNA1-PSTLZ& /:CITY &KNA1-ORT01& /:COUNTRY &KNA1-LAND1& /:FROMCOUNTRY 'DE' /:ENDADDRESS PROTECT .... ENDPROTECT The text which we want to be printed without any break i.e printed completely in a page is inserted between PROTECT and ENDPROTECT . If sapscript finds that the text cannot be printed on that page completely a implicit page break occurs and the text is printed on the next page NEW-PAGE NEW-PAGE is used to insert a page break ,it can be conditional if used between IF..ENDIF e.g. /:IF &KNA1-NAME1& = 'NIRAJ' /:NEW-PAGE /:ENDIF IF ... ENDIF IF ... ENDIF is used in the same way as in ABAP , a condition is tested and if it is true all the statements between IF and ELSE are executed otherwise statements between ELSE and ENDIF are executed, ELSE is optioonal. /:IF condition

.. .. /:ENDIF or /:IF condition .. ELSE .. /:ENDIF CASE ... ENDCASE It si similar to multiple IF.. ENDIF's but is much cleaner. /:CASE condition /:WHEN value1 ... /:WHEN value2 ... ... /:ENDCASE TIME/DATE/COUNTRY Formats These commands are used for specifying the format of date and time and setting the default country. /:SET DATE MASK = 'MM.DD.YYYY' /:SET TIME MASK = 'HH:MM' /:SET COUNTRY 'DN' PERFORM ... IN PROGRAM .... USING.. CHANGING .. ENDPERFORM To call ABAP subroutines from within a form we use the PERFORM... IN PROGRAM ... statement , the advantage of using it is that the print program is not required to cahnge and we can get the new data from the subroutine which is placed in a Z report . To pass and get the values from th subroutine the parameters are passed which are of type structure ITCSY. e.g. /:PERFORM get_date IN PROGRAM zreport /:USING &SALESORDER& /:CHANGING &S_DATE& /:ENDPERFORM
The date &S_DATE& .... The ABAP Code would be REPORT zreport. TABLES ztab. FORM get_date TABLES in_tab STRUCTURE ITCSY out_tab STRUCTURE ITCSY . READ TABLE in_tab INDEX 1. SELECT some_date FROM ztab WHERE salesorder = in_tab-value.

IF sy-subrc EQ 0. READ TABLE out-tab INDEX 1. MOVE ztab-somedate TO out_tab-value MODIFY out_tab INDEX 1. ENDIF. ENDFORM. In the above code USING is used to pass the value to the subroutine while changing is used to recieve the value from th subroutine ,for further paramters we can use either USING or CHANGING . In the subroutine the type of paramter is always an internal table of type ITCSY irrespective of the value passed.The VALUE field of the internal table is used to fill and recieve the values .
