Conditional Breaks

[Former Member]

I need to create a condition break in my Adobe Form. The form displays material item data (description, UOM, country of origin, and so on)

I want to display 8 materials on each page. After the 8th material, a page break should take place.

I have tried numerous things but no success yet. The only thing that worked for page break is on SubForm ->After -> Go to Next Page. But this creates page break after every material. To do page break after 8th material, I need to do conditional break.

I tried TAB_MAIN.GS_I_GEN_ALL.DATA.GS_I_GEN.IFINO % 8 = 0 using FormCalc and JavaScript

Even a simple 1 = 2, Break After, To Top of Next Page hasnt worked for me. Any help is greatly appreciated. thank you.

Hi Megan,

This is little touch to work out in Form builder.

Instead i have a work around solution for you.

In the print prgram where you collect the line item details, check the sy-tabix in the loop and when it reaches the 8 number then activate the field ABC in the structure.

Each and every record in the structure has this field.

Now in the Design view at layout.We write form calci/Js to check for the conditional page break.

If the field ABC is active then have conditional break else  continue as a flow.

I decided to change the body size to fit 8 lines. I couldn't get conditional break to work.
