Uncertainties and “buts” are an integral part of life, and Adobe Forms are no exception. You often encounter real-life scenarios where printing depends on specific conditions. In such cases, “SAP Adobe Form Tutorial Part X Alternative in Adobe Forms“ explores a feature called “Alternative” that allows you to print data conditionally based on the requirements.
Transaction Code: SFP.
Enter the connection point name and make (the connection point is compulsory for Adobe structure).
Enter the necessary short portrayal and save.
Enter the bundle name and save.
Allow us to add our own custom boundary name. Select the Import choice under the Structure Connection point (left side) and press the Make button (right side) to add a bringing-in boundary.
FLAG is for alternative. TEXT1 and TEXT2 are for printing the texts.
Save, Check, and Actuate the Connection Point.
Go to the back SFP Exchange fundamental screen. Make the structure.
Press the make button. Give the short portrayal and connection point name that you have made before.
Enter the bundle name and save.
Drag Banner, TEXT1, and TEXT2 from Point of Interaction to Setting.
Go to setting. Right-click on the YRAM_ADOBE_FORM10 under the unique circumstance and make an alternative.
Alternative:
Alternative is the option that we use for conditional printing with TRUE / FALSE option.
When it is TRUE, it will print the details, which are specified under TRUE and vice versa.
Simplified the TEXT1 under the Genuine Condition and the TEXT2 to Bogus Condition.
Make a condition for elective. Press on Alternative Conditions button.
Add a condition: FLAG = ‘X’
That’s what it intends – when you pass ‘X’ it is Valid, when Space it is Misleading.
Go to Design. Simplified the TEXT1 and TEXT2 to the design.
Save and enact the structure.
