Connection

An ADS connection must be selected for the generation. The default is 'ADS', which is also the default used in the SAP programs. If a different connection is selected using F4, it must be confirmed using Enter. Depending on the ADS version used, the selection screen changes, since not every ADS version supports all functions. For example, PDF/A-1 is available only from ADS version 820. 20080812034112.

Data file (XFD data)

The path to the data file can be entered manually in the 'Data File (XFD Data)' field or the file can be found by searching on the local PC (using F4).
Note: A PDF with additional information can be created by selecting 'Very detailed trace' in the settings in transaction SFP. The generated PDF contains the XFD file in an attachment.

Form Layout (XDP File)

The path to the form layout file can be entered manually in the 'Form Layout (XDP Data)' field or the file can be found by searching on the local PC (using F4).
