'START_FORM' returns sy-subrc = 1 even though form layout exists in SE71

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

Need your help.

I am trying to print a layout in the existing OPEN_FORM -

---

CLOSE_FORM layout.....

SO I am using START_FORM and END_FORM in existing OPEN_FORM -

---

CLOSE_FORM structure.

But the start_form returns subrc = 1 even though my layout form is created in SE71...

Am i missing anything?

Thanks.

Hi,

Sy-subrc eq 1 in START_FORM means that "Form does not exist". So check whether the SAP form is active and also you have spelled the form name correctly while calling START_FORM.

Hello Harish,

Yes the form is active and also the form name while passing is spelled correctly.

if you SAPScript copied to the correct client(s)? SAPScripts are client dependent...you must copy if there is more than one client...

Is the form name in upper case when you use it in all FMs?

Hi All,

Thanks for help.

It was because form had some errors when i checked it with my driver program so it was giving sy-subrc 1.

Thanks again.
