Hi Mike,

I think you should be able to a BSP application for your requirements.

Below is a link to a good "How-to Guide" to get you started:

Hi Mike,

You should use Web Dynpro ABAP or Java for implementing online Interactive form Scenario. Refer the below links, hope it will help.

Hi Mike,

I suggest WebDynpro ABAP.

You an create an intetactive form from a pure report program, using the standard FP unction modules (open, fm, close) with the fillable content as 'X'.

Now for your requirement, if you need a button on which the the employee details have to be updated,

1, It can be done through a button with in the form, which calls web service. (But as secure data is getting transferred, i wont go for this approach. - user authentication in Adobe designer for a web service is not possible (eventhough ther are some work arounds).)

2. Webdynpro ABAP or JAVA. (hope you are in ECC 6.0 for webDynpro ABAP.) I prefer webDynpro Java, as you can do iot eith little effort. rather than creating an RFC and calling it in NWDS. (button can be within or outside the form)

Hope you are clear. Do check for blogs and other articles in SCN for morer information. There aree many good blogs on these topics already by the Adobe experts.

Thanks and Regards,

Antony.
