Hello, the mentioned link gives you nothing. You will not understand where to start.

From my point of view, you should start with something more practical, something you can "feel", so use these tutorials:

Offline scenario tutorial (data there and back): http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c2567f2b-0b01-0010-b7b5-977cbf806...

Online/ ABAP WD scenario tutorial: /people/bhawanidutt.dabral/blog/2007/11/15/how-to133-integrate-adobe-form-on-webdynpro-for-abap-and-deploy-it-on-portal

In case you have no ADS installed and have no overview of Adobe forms, we can provide some better links to start from the SCRATCH. Hope that helps, Otto

Hi Otto,

SDN is not a market where you are competing with others saying "the links provided by them gives nothing, please go through the links I am providing you".

Its an open forum where people help each other. The link I have provided contains all the things from basic to complex from SAP. I think you havn't opened the link, its clearly mentioned "Getting Started" under Knowledge Center and every tutorial for a beginer is provided there. Hope you would understand and won't take it in a wrong way.

Best Regards,

Vaibhav.

I am sorry fort that, no offense, but the provided link provides so general information and so many options where to start from.

When I was a beginner, was not able to find any place to start from, so I wasted hours looking for a good source for a newbie.

You have your opinion, I have mine. I am sorry if I did not use a proper language but I am not a native speaker and didn´t know that is so offensive.

I agree with Otto, the tutorial "Offline Interactive Forms Using ABAP" is an excellent place to begin. The paper is hands-on, detailed, and related to a complete business process. It covers creating an interface, form, and generating the form, as well as sending the form, filling the form, and extracting the data back into SAP.

Below are a few points to keep in mind which may help you as you proceed,

- The general template for an Adobe form print program includes: (A) Getting the generated function module name (ABAP function module created from the form), (B) Opening a print job (C) Calling the generated function module name and (D) Closing the print job.

- Form processing parameters of the type SFDOCPARAMS control if a form is fillable and dynamic.

- Form output parameters of the type SFPOUTPUTPARAMS control things such as print preview, retrieval of a PDF, spool settings, etc

- I highly recommend the SAP Press book "SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe". It includes step by step instructions, can be used as a reference for each step of the tutorial, and is easily searchable if you get the online version

- After you go through the tutorial, you can try to relate some of the content to standard SAP reports such as program FP_TEST_IA_01

Good luck!

Hi Otto,

No need to be sorry and it was not so offensive. I was just trying to say the links you provided could be more helpful but mine was not useless.

I replied in that way coz you had written: "The mentioned link gives you nothing".

Hope to see you as top contributor of the forum in future also...:-)
