How to avoid Print pop-up while using a Adobe form.

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am calling a adobe form from a BAPI.I am using the following function modules FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME and CALL FUNCTION fun_name. But when I try to execute the BAPI a print preview pop-up appears.Please let me know the steps to avoid the print preview pop-up while execution of the BAPI.

Thanks in Advance.

Warm Regards,

Arun.

before calling the function FP_JOB_OPEN, set the output parameters something like:

.
..
  gs_outputpar type sfpoutputparams,
..
..
  gs_outputpar-nodialog = abap_true.
  gs_outputpar-getpdf = abap_true.
  call function 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
    changing
      ie_outputparams = gs_outputpar
    exceptions
      cancel          = 1
     .
     .
....

or you can refer the doc

Thanks for you quick responses.

But when I use * CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'* the form output parameter /1bcdwb/formoutput of the funtion module CALL FUNCTION Fun_name is initial.It does not have any XSTRING values.

When I am not using the function module 'FP_JOB_OPEN' and execute the BAPI,I have xstring values in the output parameter /1bcdwb/formoutput .

Is this issue becase of enabling of RFC in BAPI.Please let me know your suggestions on this.

Warm Regards,

Arun

Hello

I don´t understand the connection between BAPI and the printing program. I guess - at least that is what I have done - is to generate the form when creating and invoice or something, then I could understand.

When you ask for GETPDF = 'X' then you always get the PDF data back and not the popup.

Or if you would like to display the print preview without a print settings popup. Or variants...

 
FUNCTION ZPDF_SET_OUTPUT_MODE.
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
*"*"Lokální rozhraní:
*"  CHANGING
*"     VALUE(FP_OUTPUTPARAMS) TYPE  SFPOUTPUTPARAMS
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------

fp_outputparams-dest     = 'ZPDF'.
fp_outputparams-nodialog = 'X'.
fp_outputparams-preview  = 'X'.

ENDFUNCTION.

Hi,

When I ecexute the BAPI(Which generates a Adobe Form) in SE37 I get usage error and sy-subrc =1 while calling the generated function module for adobe form name( CALL FUNCTION generated_adobe_name ) and hence no values are populated in the function module output parameter /1bcdwb/formoutput.

Warm Regrads,

Arun

WHAT BAPI? There are no BAPIs for Adobe forms, as far as I know.... Otto

Hello Arun,

You have to call the FM "FP_JOB_OPEN" to set the required parameters then call your form .

Refer report "FP_TEST_IA_01".

Thanks & Regards,
