smartforms formatting error 604: field does not exist in form

[Former Member]

Am new to Smartforms. Am trying to link a Standard text to Samrtform. The Standard text (ST) is an appointment letter created by me. The letter has fields such as:

&P0001-ENAME&

When I run/test the smartform then I get the following error:

formatting error 604: Field P0001-ENAME does not exist in form.

Do I need to link this feild to the form somewhere?

Thanks guys. Have done the setting as mentioned by you guys.

But the value of the field is being displayed as 00000000.

How can I parameterise the second variable i.e. PERNR because otherwise smatrform will display details for which Personnel Number?

My Standard text (ST) letter is as follows:

Appointment letter for:

&P0001-ENAME&

&P0001-PERNR&.

This appointment letter is being generated starting today July29th,2008.

Thanks Amit but on which tab? When I select Global definitions option, I see a lot of tabs such as:

Global data/Types/FieldSymbols etc.

And I need to declare the infotype P0001 or the field also i.e. P0001-ENAME.

basically if you want to paas the P0001 infotype to the smartform then u need to declare it in the import section of the form interface.

eg

P0001 TYPE p0001

otherwise if u r passing only the ename then

eg

ename TYPE enam...

it depends what other fields u want display for p0001.

if its only enam then u need to pass it to the smartform.

but since the standard text is using p0001-ename

then its best u pass the structure p0001.

declare it in form interface->import
