Getting values from screen to search help exit
Hi Experts,
I have created a search help in which I am not using selection method but search help exit. Dialog type is 'Dialog with value restriction'. My requirement is to get the values entered in restriction screen into search help exit. Please suggest a parameter which will hold this value in search help exit function module.
Hi M,
As you know there are 5 steps in search help exit. For each step, the values in parameter of your search help exit is different.
For your requirement, you need process in step 'DISP', and get the selection value from 'SHLP-SELOPT'.
Example:
*Build range for customer number
LOOP AT shlp-selopt INTO ls_selopt WHERE shlpfield = 'KUNNR'.
lr_kunnr-sign = ls_selopt-sign.
lr_kunnr-option = ls_selopt-option.
lr_kunnr-low = ls_selopt-low.
lr_kunnr-high = ls_selopt-high.
APPEND lr_kunnr.
CLEAR: lr_kunnr.
ENDLOOP.
Then using the lr_kunnr range in your select statement.
regards,
Archer

'Screen Group' in Screen Painter, & 'Search help Exit'
Hii All,
1. What is 'Screen Group' in Screen Painter
attributes. In which Scenario we will go for it.
2. What is 'Search help Exit'.
Please post your messages and guide me in this topic,
Thanks & Regards,
John.Hi John,
A Search help exit is something similar to a user exit. Every search help will have an option of attaching a search help exit under the definition tab( when you view the search help from se12).
For example take a look at the search help VMVA - you will notice a search help exit SD_F4_SHLP_EXIT_SUBSHLP_CHOOSE attached to it.
Basically the serah help exit which is nothing but a function module with a predefined interface which gets triggered before a f4 help is displayed. The exit is used to supress or do any other related modification required.
We have implemented many search help exits and the reason is that we have given a custom interface to our business partners to carry out some transaction on our SAP systems. Though we have given them access to our SAP system we also want to ensure that the business partner does not view any additional data in the system. We have controlled this via many ways like using z objects, using authorizations etc. Still once the user has authorizations to any transaction he or she can do a f4 help on any field and see the data which he should not be able to do. So we have implemented search help exits to supress the drop down only for the business partners. We control this based on the unique login id's we have given to them.
So in short it is used to modify the behaviour of F4 help, mostly used to supress the drop down.
It has to be defined in a specific format.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Getting values from JLabel[] with JButton[] help!
Hello everyone!
My problem is:
I have created JPanel, i have an array of JButtons and array of JLabels, they are all placed on JPanel depending from record count in *.mdb table - JLabels have its own value selected from Access table.mdb! I need- each time i press some button,say 3rd button i get value showing from 3rd JLabel in some elsewere created textfield, if i have some 60 records and 60 buttons and 60 labels its very annoying to add for each button actionlistener and for each button ask for example jButton[1].addActionListener() ...{ jLabel[1].getText()......} and so on!

Modify another field value in search help exit.
While creating the Sales Order, the user does an f4 on ship to party to determine the sold to party ( search help exit ), now I have the values of both the Ship to customer and Sold to customer in the search help exit, but I can update only the ship to field of the sales order, do you know how I can modify the sold to value on the screen.
I tried setting up the parameter id 'VAG' in the search help exit with the determined value, but this value is not getting copied in the Sold to party field once the search help is executed.
The other option which is left is export to memory and import to memory in another user exit of VA01. Is there any other alternative? Also which program do I need to do the import of memory so that sold to party is displayed on the initial before saving the document ?
AjayHi,
Yes..Try calling from the search help exit..
You have to pass the program name and screen number..
In the internal table parameter DYNPFIELDS..
Pass the fieldname and fieldvalue...
Thanks,

Set a parameter value using Search help exit
Hi All,
I want a search help such as If I enter a warehouse number on my screen then search help for storage bins should have that warehouse number populated in selection dialog.
I guess i have to write some code in search help exit if CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'PRESEL'.
But I am not able to set the warehouse value to parameter.
Does any one have done something like this?
Thanks in Advance,
ShaillyHi Shailly,
I don#t know if that will be the best option for you, but you can make use of the abap program event at value request for your parameter_id.
What you need is to insert a similar code like the one below:
at selection-screen on value-request for p_param
select fielda fieldb from storage bin table into gi_warehouse_bin
where warehouse = warehouse parameter.
delete adjacent duplicates from gi_zzdez comparing all fields.
call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
exporting
retfield = space
dynpprog = 'REPORT_NAME'
dynpnr = '1000'
dynprofield = 'P_BIN'
window_title = 'Text'
value_org = 'S'
tables
value_tab = gi_warehouse_bin
exceptions
parameter_error = 1
no_values_found = 2
others = 3
if sy-subrc <> 0.
message id sy-msgid type sy-msgty number sy-msgno
with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
endif.

Passing two export parameter from search help exit
hi gurus,
i need your help
i need to import two field from search help exit into two screen field.
eg.
parameters : p1 type p1 matchcode id s1,
p2 type p2,
on f4 for p1 i am displaying two field in search help output, p1 and p2.
i am using search help exit FM to pass value from s1, not using any view or table infact extracting data using other function module. i am filling.
what i want , when i make a selection on f4 for p1, p2 should also be filled from the same search help s1.
i allready tried memory id-export option in my search help exit at RETURN event but that does not fits well.
ASAP reply higly appreciated
will reward point for surethanks a lot it worked out by defining search help for structure which contain these two fields.
what i was missing was interface link.

SELECT-OPTIONS Values via DYNP_VALUES_READ in a Search Help Exit
Hi all,
I appended a standard search help of a standard report with a search help of my own. Now I am trying to retrieve the values the user has entered into the selection screen of the report using the FM DYNP_VALUES_READ in my search help exit FM. It works fine for single values defined by PARAMETERS and for low and high values of SELECT-OPTIONS (so_example-LOW and so_example-HIGH), but I need the entire SELECT-OPTIONS table. I cannot make any changes in the report, so do you have any solutions I could implement in my search help exit FM?
Many thanks!
Vladan
P.S.
I found several questions on this topic but they either just different enough not to be applicable in my case or the formatting has made the replies useless.Most of the time we just copy the standard FM F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE to a new one and give our own name.
You can see that on the 12th line there is the following code
* EXIT immediately, if you do not want to handle this step
IF CALLCONTROL-STEP <> 'SELONE' AND
CALLCONTROL-STEP <> 'SELECT' AND
" AND SO ON
CALLCONTROL-STEP <> 'DISP'.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
you should comment those line in order for the control to reach the PRESEL step (which is already defined in the SH Exit FM) which is on line 44.
Most of the time, when someone says they don't hit PRESEL, this is the problem.

Help: cant get values from a resultset
i have a class that contains all my MySQL statement and i am trying to use the results found from one of my select statements to pass on into another class which displays the results in a gui form. Here is my query:
public void profile(String user)
try
Class.forName(driver);
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( url,db_user, db_pass);
String username, name, email, dob, bio, gender, homepage, number;
//find username and select all details
String find = "SELECT Username, Full_name, Email, dob, Biography, Gender, Homepage, Contact_number FROM users WHERE Username = ? ";
PreparedStatement ps1 = con.prepareStatement(find);
ps1.setString(1, user);
ResultSet rs = ps1.executeQuery();
while(rs.next())
//retreive information from the server
username = rs.getString(1);
name = rs.getString(2);
email = rs.getString(3);
dob = rs.getString(4);
bio = rs.getString(5);
gender = rs.getString(6);
homepage = rs.getString(7);
number = rs.getString(8);
User_Profile profile = new User_Profile(username, name, email, dob, bio, gender, homepage, number);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, username + bio + email, null, JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
con.close();
catch( Exception e )
e.printStackTrace();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "error," + e.getMessage(), null, JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}As you can see, i am trying to pass on the variables username, name, etc to a new instance of my user_profile class but it doesnt for some reason. i dont get any comple errors so thats ok. i created messege dialog box from within the while statement above to see if a value is stored, and yes their is a value stored in my variables
below is the user profile class which shows my constructor that suppose to get the values from the query class in this code entered above User_Profile profile = new User_Profile(username, name, email, dob, bio, gender, homepage, number);
protected String username;
protected String FullName;
protected String Email;
protected String DOB;
protected String Biography;

protected String crnt_user;
public User_Profile(String user, String name, String email, String dob,
String bio, String gender, String homepage, String number)
initComponents();
addWindowListener( this );
//get values from sql query and store them here.
this.username = user;
this.FullName = name;
this.Email = email;
this.DOB = dob;
this.Biography = bio;
this.Gender = gender;
this.Homepage = homepage;
this.Con_Number = number;
}the code below is used to display one of the values received from the query class, in this case returns null..
txt_name.setText(username)Does the user String match the database String
exactly?
Some databases are case sensative.Sorry posted before done.
Also, ensure you do not have trailing spaces in one or both. I remember Oracle had this problem a few years ago using the Type 4 driver but not through ODBC. -

Hold down the home and lock buttons until you see an Apple Logo, then release the buttons.
If that doesn't work, you should check to see if you have a backup because you may have to restore your device. -
Help with DYNP_VALUES_READ and DYNP_GET_STEPL in search help exit
Hi,
I'm coding a search help exit for a field on a table control and I need to get access to the value of another field that's on the same line in order to limit the hit list. I can use DYNP_VALUES_READ to return the values from the step loop, but I can't find out which line of the step loop I'm on. DYNP_GET_STEPL always returns 0, presumably because I'm now in a function group and the step loop is getting reset. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

Populate and display internal table results using search help exit...
I have copied F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE and made changes. I want this search help exit to populate and display contents related to 'FIELD1' when the user enters a specific value for it in the search help screen, meaning when the user restricts the search by that value.

hi gurus,
i have an intersting question for you, well my scenario is like i have to create a search help exit using some function module cause i didt found table for my search help but i can find the value through FM, i know we can create a search help exit and then assign it to collective search help,

use of search help exit with an example
Hi,
A search help describes the standard input help process. In exceptions it could be necessary to deviate in some points from this standard. Such a deviation from the standard can also be implemented with a search help exit.
The input help process should look as much the same as possible throughout the entire system. Search help exits should therefore only be used for exceptions.
A search help exit is a function module that has a predefined interface. A search help exit is called at certain times by the help processor. The administrative data of the help processor are passed to the search help exit using the interface.
You can store your own program logic that manipulates this administrative data in the search help exit. Individual steps of the input help process can be skipped with a search help exit.
for example
Search help exit F4UT_OPTIMIZE_COLWIDTH adjusts the column width in the hit list to the contents of the column. It makes sense to use this search help exit when the columns of the hit list have to be made very wide for extreme cases (e.g. for name fields), but normally they will contain much smaller values.
Each search help exit must have the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE (is used as pattern for all the search help exits to be created). You can find more information about the interface in the documentation for this function module.
Calling the Search Help Exit
If a search help exit is assigned to a search help, the help processor calls it at the following times:
Before Displaying the Dialog Box for Selecting the Required Search Path.
It is only called for collective search helps. Using the search help exit, the set of elementary search helps available can for example be restricted depending on the context.
Before Starting the F4 Process for the Elementary Search Help
The call is triggered independent of whether the dialog window for entering the search conditions appears or whether the selection is executed immediately (for example, because in the Hot key of the elementary search help Immediate value display is set).
Before Displaying the Dialog Box for Entering Search Conditions.
You can either influence the dialog for entering search conditions or skip it altogether here. You can also influence how the selection screen looks. The call is triggered only if there is no direct selection (that is, if in the Hot key of the elementary search help Immediate value display is not set).
Before Selecting Data.
The data selection can be partly or completely copied from the search help exit. This can become necessary if the data selection cannot be implemented with a SELECT statement for a table or a view.
Before Displaying the Hit List.
You can influence the display of the hit list in this step with the search help exit. You can reduce the number of values displayed here. For example, you can display only values for which the person calling the input help has authorization. You can also copy the complete hit list from the search help exit.
Before Returning the Values Selected by the User to the Input Template.
It could be advisable to intervene at this time if control of the further transaction flow should depend on the value selected. A typical example is setting set/get parameters. -
How to concatenate fields in Search help exit
Hi,
My requirement is i have to create a search help for a field in cj20n transaction.
when i press f4 on that field i should get a popup of 4 fields from custom table,when user selects any 1 row,
first 3 field values should be concatenated and appear in screen field . in search hlp i added 1 more field so that i can concatenate
all 3 field values and place in it.I can use search help exit so i can concatenate but there are steps like selone,presel etc i am not able to understand .
I saw some examples in wiki, but not able to understand what to do for my requirement.
regards.
Edited by: vnamamala on May 27, 2010 12:22 PMYou would use the step 'SELECT' to control the data selection into an internal table. You would use the step 'DISP' to map the records in the internal table to the search help record table. In your case, I would already have a field in the internal table with the values concatenated together prior to the hit list display (do this in SELECT step) which is not displayed in the hit list but is flagged as the EXPORT field in the search help definition; otherwise just put the field at the end of the hit list.
Map your results in DISP as follows:
* Map the internal table to RECORD_TAB
CALL FUNCTION 'F4UT_RESULTS_MAP'
TABLES
SHLP_TAB = SHLP_TAB
RECORD_TAB = RECORD_TAB
SOURCE_TAB = GT_DOCUMENT
CHANGING
SHLP = SHLP
CALLCONTROL = CALLCONTROL
EXCEPTIONS
ILLEGAL_STRUCTURE = 1
OTHERS = 2.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4UT_OPTIMIZE_COLWIDTH'
TABLES
SHLP_TAB = SHLP_TAB
RECORD_TAB = RECORD_TAB
CHANGING
SHLP = SHLP
CALLCONTROL = CALLCONTROL.
