Hello gurus,
I'm facing a task for a desired specification on SRM 7.0.
On Purchase Order and Contracts WD views, there's a button called "Print Preview" which triggers a smartform-generated function module.
In our scenario, a specific BADi implementation contains the logic that selects the specific smartform that will be triggered.
Now, the desiderata is as follows:
- for CERTAIN DOCUMENTS, e.g. the ones which refer to a specific organization, we should generate a selection popup in which the user can choose which type of smartform has to be triggered. This event (the selection popup) should be triggered by the pressure of the "Print Preview" button.
So far, lots of doubts... I hope someone could give an hint on the task:
- since "Print Preview" is a button that belongs to the WD "FPM_OIF_COMPONENT" (view CNR_VIEW), first of all, how can I check for condition on the document to determine whether the popup should be triggered or not? In other words: how can I check @FPM level data of the underlying document?
- what's the easiest way to trigger a popup after the button has been pressed?
I've seen that *any* button on FPM_OIF_COMPONENT triggers the method "ONACTIONBUTTON_PRESSED"; should I enhance the method by creating a pre-exit which checks against doc's data and eventually triggers a popup?
- How can I then propagate user's selection to the underlying layer? As far as I've seen, Smartform determination is performed AFTER the button has been pressed, so ... does the solution sketched above make sense, or there's another spot in which is useful to introduce my custom routines?
Thanks to anyone which would give me hints or suggestions on the task.
Kind regards,
M.
