Extracting data from interactive Adobe form to SAP system

[Former Member]

Hi,

My requirement is to display an Interactive Adobe Form to the user whic has couple of fields to be filled. When the user submits the form, this data is to be captured back into the SAP system and saved in a custom database.

I have generated the form, but I am not sure how to capture the data back when the user clicks on the Submit button.

Since I am new to Adobe Forms, can you please tell me how to achieve this step by step. I want to achieve this only by coding ABAP and not webdynpro Abap or java.Thanks,

Harini

Once user fills the data, You need to

Upload the data from your PDF into internal table,

Get the PDF object in the object reference type interface if_fp_pdf_object

Extract the data

Use the XML transformation or Document factory to extract the data from the XML string

Check this excellent article from Vani Krishnamoorthy:

Or you can call the Webservice on submit button and let the webservice (RFC) handle the information.
