Hi,

Try to copy the standard form into Zform in the following way

Download the standard form XML file and same XML file upload into Zform.

Navigation to down load the xml file

Utilities--> download XML file

Upload the XML file

Utilities---> Upload XML file

After upload the XML file into Zform then activate the form. So you may not the get the problem

Hi Jesse

It is correct that I work in an upgrade. I now get the message "Internal error occurred in SAFP API". I cannot get connected to J2EE through my ADS rfc.

Kim,

We have the same message appearing when we try to copy an existign form into a 'Z' form. Have you been able to resolve this issue?

Hi Kim,

This is likely due to an SAP bug that I've seen after upgrading to ECC 6.0. The "default" message in the system is incorrectly set to "No vendor specified". So it ends up hiding the real error message that you're running into. You will likely see this with other programs as well. Luckily it's easy to fix.

The issue is that Message Class 00 Message 001 is incorrectly set to 'No vendor specified' for English (EN). It is correctly set to '&1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8' for German (DE).

To fix it update the message for English to '&1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8'

Thanks,

Jesse
