Hi guys, I have a requirement to develop customer invoice. where the inputs will be sales order number ,customer data and a table for items. Data can be manually entered by user or based on SO.

Which would be better platform to implement this? Adobeform or module pool?

There is no comparison between Adobe forms and Module pool,

Adobe forms generally use for form printing and Module pool for sap screen level processing.

For your requirement, you need to create one report program or module pool program that contain one selection screen and code to call adobe form that is having your invoice layout. Your module pool will fatch required data and passes to adobe interface. You need to design layout in adobe forms using interface data.

Hope this helps.

Isn't it possible to make interactive fields in invoice layout so user can enter details in adobeform itself? Or doesn't adobeform provide that option?

Yes that is possible for sure with adobe forms. That's the main advantage of adobe form over smart form or sap scripts.

What i gives you is a straightforward approach for form printing using user parameters.

Hope this helps.
