Can I save the form as well as pdf in the system?

Hi,

I know that I can use the interactive forms as a kind of paper like user interface.

But is it as well possible to save the files as pdf in the system AND extract he data entered in the form into the tables in the SAP system?

Kind regards,

Carl

Hello Carl,

Yes both the things are possible in the interactive forms.

There are wide range of APIs available wherein you can get the PDF as a byte array and then can use the normal Java APIs to save the PDF on the file system.

To have the data extracted into the tables of the SAP system, you need to use a model node in your interactive form based applications and then you can transfer data to and from the backend to interactive forms.
