Adobe to Print and Fax

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

Am creating astandalone program where it has all the invoice details and I have created 1 Adobe form via SFP tcode.

In my program selection screen, I have radiobuttons for Print and Fax.

So, user will select any one of the option. Based on the option selected, output is obtained i.e. if user selects "print" then adobe form should be printed and if user selects fax then adobe form should be faxed.

Here, the program & Adobe form layout is not attached to any standard transaction and no configuration is there for it. Just user executes the program based on the output option selected.

So, Please help me for this functionality.

What are the neccessary steps needs to be taken care for printing, faxing the adobe forms.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Raju,

Thank you for reply.... Yes I agree that the piece of code which is sent has to be used. But, where exactly we have to specify i.e. "Fax No" and the details of printer and etc... in the function module.

In function module "FP_JOB_OPEN", we have device parameter where we can pass whether it is Print or Fax. But where do we give other details like Fax no for Fax as a output option and same for Print also.

These all details I need it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Usha,

Just pass the parameters in OUT structure.

sample :

out-device = 'PRINTER'. or 'TELEFAX' " in case of Fax

out-nodialog = 'X'.

out-dest = par_priz. " Destination

out-reqnew = 'X'.

• out-reqimm = 'X'.

• out-reqdel = 'X'.

out-reqfinal = 'X'.

hope this will help you.

Hi Raju,

This Information is also helpful for me. In Dest field, we can specify the destination but for FAX option, where should v give the Fax No... Could you please let me know about this also.

Thanks in advance.
