Testing ADS Configuration:

Checking ADS Configuration in an ABAP Environment

1. Log on to the AS ABAP system.
Start the transaction SA38.
Enter the program name FP_TEST_00.
Choose Program Execute (F8)
Make sure, that the following default values are entered in the respective fields:
Form: FP_TEST_00
ADS Connection: ADS or the RFC Destination name specified in your system (if it does not correspond to the default entry)
Choose Program Execute (F8)
Enter the Output Device.
Choose Print Preview.
If the system displays a form containing several lines on two pages, the ADS configuration is correct. Otherwise, perform the
tests described below.










Checking the ABAP Connection to ADS

Log on to your SAP system.
Start the transaction SA38.
Enter the name of the test report FP_PDF_TEST_00.
Enter the name of the connection. Enter the default name ADS, or, if you have specified another name, the one you are using in your system.
Choose Execute (F8).
If the configuration is correct, the system displays the version number of the Adobe Document Services.








Checking the Destination Service and the ICF Service

Log on to your SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP system.
Call transaction SA38.
Enter the name of the test report
Execute the test without choosing the option With
Destination Service.
The system renders a test form in the background
without using the destination service and displays the size of the created PDF.
Execute the test again. Now select the option With
Destination Service.
If the settings of the destination service are
correct, the system displays the same message as before (see step 5).
