Is it possible for a user to edit the output of a form before printing?

This might sound odd but the business have requested the ability to edit the text of a Smartform before printing. i.e. a standard form can be printed 'as is' for most employees but certain exceptions may require the wording to be slightly amended.

I don't think this is possible but I want to know for sure.

Any advice is much appreciated.

Many thanks

Matt

Hi Matt,

Sanjay was right.

That is the best you can do as of now.

Have a screen when the user has a chance of modifying the texts that are currently being displayed on the print. Let him save the texts and then trigger the smrtform, which would pick the updated texts instead of the old ones.

the function modules READ_TEXT, SAVE_TEXT may come in handy here.

I dont know about smartform but in SAPscript i think it can be done in following way....(this is an idea, you need to confirm),

Accept text from the screen and save it as standard text. Then in your driver program open forms where you use 'include' text.
