Hi,

Requirement : Once the program has been executed and the form is displayed, the user has an option to edit the output of adobe form(created in Tcode:SFP) and once the user done with editing he can click the Submit button that will send in their external email.

Question: is there a function module that can edit the adobe form in the Print preview mode?

Hoping for your kind assistance.

Thanks in advance.

It's a typical adobe interactive form instead of print form. Technically there is no problem for developer, but for interactive forms your company must purchase liscence from SAP (and put the liscence file on the ADS-Server as instructed) and it's rather expensive 🙂

Hi,

Just Create Report Program and Call your Form in that.

pass PREVIEW = 'X'  in out params.

make FILLABLE = 'X'.

Create a T-Code for the Program .

when you execute it , it will open the form in previw and you can edit it and do what ever you want.

Thanks.

Not sure of your full requirment. Are you asking if a user can open and Adobe from from email, edit it in their Adobe Reader and then submit it back via email? Are you sure you mean "Print Preview" or are you just meaning from "read only" mode in the Adobe Reader?

scenario#1

Without knowing all of it, what you could do is write a WebDynpro (ABAP or Java) that has an Adobe component in it that opens an INTERACTIVE form. The user can edit the form and then have the Web Dynpro send it off in whatever way you like.

scenario#2

You can also look at Offline scenarios....user receives the form in email, edits INTERACTIVE form, attachs to mail, sends....but then you STILL need the mechanism on the backend/SAP side to "listen" for that email coming back, grab the attachment, read the data and do what it needs with it.

You can search around for other information on "offline" scenarios.
