Path for Directory in Selection Screen

I have one field in selection screen Error log.
I have to pick path for dirctory in that parameter, so that I can save my error log there on that path.
how i can do it ?
F4 for the path is needed. how i will define that parameter in selection screen?

How can i set dynamice for week on Selection screen..pls help me..Urgent

Hi..All
please Help me .. i am very confused..
i need to set a varient for week which is dynamic on selection screen.
b) Week from current week to current week + 2. (<b>Dynamic selection)</b>how can i set dynamice for week on Selection screen,,
how can i do this..i am alrady set dynamice variant for Date.. there is option for D.. but in case of week there is a no option.
pls help me..urgent
thamks in advance.
mayukh

Hi,
I think the way out is use the dynamic select option while setting up the varinat and use sy-datum to sy-datum+9 which should essentially serve the purpose.
While saving the variant, for that particular date field check the Selection variable checkbox, then Choose D
option and then choose current days + or - option from there.

Steps to create tabstrip for subscreen in selection screen

hi,
can let me know the steps taken to create subscreen in selection screen and put in tabstrip?
i need to have 3 screens. 1000 being the tabstrip, 2000 being first subscreen and 3000 being the second subscreen.
i have the abap code but i do not know the steps to create especially 1000 screen.
for 2000 and 3000, once i activated the program, these 2 screens added but i do not know where can i create the 1000 screen.
also, should i use wizard to create tabstrip?
please advise. thanks

e_l,
See the total doc.. with example.
Assigning a Subscreen Area to a Tab Title
You must assign a subscreen area to each tab title. There are two ways of doing this:
Paging in the SAPgui
You need to assign a separate subscreen area to each tab title, and define the function codes of the tab titles with type P (local GUI function). In the screen flow logic, you call all the subscreens in the PBO event. This means that all of the tab pages reside locally on the SAPgui.
When the user chooses a tab title, paging takes place within the SAPgui. In this respect, the tabstrip control behaves like a single screen. In particular, the PAI event is not triggered when the user chooses a tab title, and no data is transported. While this improves the performance of your tabstrip control, it also has the negative effect that when the user does trigger the PAI event, all of the input checks for all of the subscreens are performed. This means that when the user is working on one tab page, the input checks may jump to an unfilled mandatory field on another page.
Local paging at the SAPgui is therefore most appropriate for screens that display data rather than for input screens.
Paging on the Application Server
One subscreen area is shared by all tab titles and called in the PBO event. You define the function codes of the individual tab titles without a special function type. When the user chooses a tab page, the PAI event is triggered, and you must include a module in your flow logic that activates the appropriate tab page and assigns the correct subscreen to the subscreen area.
Since the PAI event is triggered each time the user chooses a tab title, this method is less economical for the application server, but the input checks that are performed only affect the current tab page.
Procedure in Either Case
You create the subscreen areas within the tabstrip area. You assign the subscreen areas to one or more tab titles in the Screen Painter by selecting one or more titles. You can also assign a subscreen area to a tab title in the tab title attributes by entering the name of the subscreen area in the Reference field attribute.
The procedure for the alphanumeric Screen Painter is described under Creating Tabstrip Controls.
If you are paging at the SAPgui, create a subscreen area for each tab title. If you are paging at the application server, select all tab titles and create a single subscreen area. The subscreen areas may not cover the top line of the tab area. However, within a tab area, more than one subscreen area can overlap.
Programming the Flow Logic
In the flow logic, all you have to do by hand is include the correct subscreens. The screen flow and data transport to the ABAP program is the same as for normal subscreens. There are two ways of programming the screen flow logic, depending on how you have decided to page through the tabstrip control.
Paging in the SAPgui
When you page in the SAPgui, you must include a subscreen for each subscreen area:
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
CALL SUBSCREEN: <area1> INCLUDING [<prog 1>] <dynp 1>,
                  <area2> INCLUDING [<prog 2>] <dynp 2>,
                  <area3> INCLUDING [<prog 3>] <dynp 3>,
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
CALL SUBSCREEN: <area1>,
                  <area2>,
                  <area3>,
Paging on the Application Server
When you page on the application server, you only have to include a subscreen for the one subscreen area:
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
CALL SUBSCREEN <area> INCLUDING [<prog>] <dynp>.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
CALL SUBSCREEN <area>.
Handling in the ABAP Program
Before you can use a tabstrip control in your ABAP program, you must create a control for each control in the declaration part of your program using the following statement:
CONTROLS <ctrl> TYPE TABSTRIP.
where <ctrl> is the name of the tabstrip area on a screen in the ABAP program. The control allows the ABAP program to work with the tabstrip control. The statement declares a structure with the name <ctrl> . The only component of this structure that you need in your program is called ACTIVETAB.
Use in the PBO event
Before the screen is displayed, you use the control to set the tab page that is currently active. To do this, assign the function code of the corresponding tab title to the component ACTIVETAB:
<ctrl>-ACTIVETAB = <fcode>.
When you page at the SAPgui, you only need to do this once before the screen is displayed. This initializes the tabstrip control. The default active tab page is the first page. After this, the page activated when the user chooses a tab title is set within SAPgui.
When you page on the application server, you must assign the active page both before the screen is displayed for the first time, and each time the user pages. At the same time, you must set the required subscreen screen.
You can suppress a tab page dynamically by setting the ACTIVE field of table SCREEN to 0 for the corresponding tab title.
Use in the PAI event
In the PAI event, ACTIVETAB contains the function code of the last active tab title on the screen.
When you page in the SAPgui, this allows you to find out the page that the user can currently see. When you page at the application server, the active tab page is controlled by the ABAP program anyway.
The OK_CODE field behaves differently according to the paging method:
Paging in the SAPgui
When you page in the SAPgui, the PAI event is not triggered when the user chooses a tab title, and the OK_CODE field is not filled. The OK_CODE field is only filled by user actions in the GUI status or when the user chooses a pushbutton either outside the tabstrip control or on one of the subscreens.
Paging on the application server
If you are paging at the application server, the PAI event is triggered when the user chooses a tab title, and the OK_CODE field is filled with the corresponding function code.
To page through the tabstrip control, you must assign the function code to the ACTIVETAB component of the control:
<ctrl>-ACTIVETAB = <ok_code>.
This statement overwrites the function code of the last active tab page with that of the new tab title. At the same time, you must ensure that the correct subscreen is inserted in the subscreen area.
Otherwise, tabstrip controls are handled like normal subscrens in ABAP programs, that is, the ABAP program of a subscreen screen must contain the dialog modules called from the flow logic of the subscreen.
Examples
Tabstrip control, paging at SAPgui
REPORT DEMO_DYNPRO_TABSTRIP_LOCAL.

      SAVE_OK TYPE SY-UCOMM.

ENDIF.
ENDMODULE.
The next screen (statically defined) for screen 100 is itself. It has the following layout:
The screen contains a tabstrip area called MYTABSTRIP with three tab titles PUSH1, PUSH2 and PUSH3. The function codes have the same name, and all have the function type P. One of the subscreen areas SUB1 to SUB3 is assigned to each tab title. The pushbutton has the name BUTTON and the function code OK.
In the same ABAP program, there are three subscreen screens 110 to 130. Each of these fits the subscreen area exactly. The layout is:
The screen flow logic for screen 100 is as follows:
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE STATUS_0100.
CALL SUBSCREEN: SUB1 INCLUDING SY-REPID '0110',
                  SUB2 INCLUDING SY-REPID '0120',
                  SUB3 INCLUDING SY-REPID '0130'.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE CANCEL AT EXIT-COMMAND.
CALL SUBSCREEN: SUB1,
                  SUB2,
                  SUB3.
MODULE USER_COMMAND.
The screen flow logic of subscreens 110 to 130 does not contain any module calls.
When you run the program, a screen appears on which the second tab page is active, since the program sets the ACTIVETAB component of the structure MYTABSTRIP to PUSH2 before the screen is displayed. The user can page through the tabstrip control without the PAI event being triggered. One of the three subscreens is included on each tab page.
When the user chooses Continue, the PAI event is triggered, and an information message displays the function code of the tab title of the page that is currently active.

    MESSAGE I888(SABAPDOCU) WITH 'MYTABSTRIP-ACTIVETAB ='
                                  MYTABSTRIP-ACTIVETAB.
ELSE.
    MYTABSTRIP-ACTIVETAB = SAVE_OK.
    CASE SAVE_OK.
      WHEN 'PUSH1'.
        NUMBER = '0110'.
      WHEN 'PUSH2'.
        NUMBER = '0120'.
      WHEN 'PUSH3'.
        NUMBER = '0130'.
    ENDCASE.
ENDIF.
ENDMODULE.
The statically-defined next screen for screen 100 is itself, and its layout is the same as in the above example. However, the function codes of the three tab titles have the function type <blank> and they all share a single subscreen area SUB.
The same subscreen screens 110 to 130 are defined as in the last example.
The screen flow logic for screen 100 is as follows:
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE STATUS_0100.
CALL SUBSCREEN SUB INCLUDING SY-REPID NUMBER.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE CANCEL AT EXIT-COMMAND.
CALL SUBSCREEN SUB.
MODULE USER_COMMAND.
In this example, the program includes a subscreen screen in the subscreen area SUB dynamically during the PBO event.
The screen flow logic of subscreens 110 to 130 does not contain any module calls.
This example has the same function as the previous example, but the paging within the tabstrip control is implemented on the application server. Each time the user chooses a tab title, the function code from the OK_CODE field is assigned to the ACTIVETAB component of structure MYTABSTRIP. At the same time, the variable NUMBER is filled with the screen number of the subscreen that has to be displayed in the subscreen area SUB of the tabstrip control

Hello,
Define your select-option in TVARV (assume Z_THISWEEK). And use a program like:
DATA:
zlv_week TYPE KWEEK.
call function 'DATE_GET_WEEK'
   exporting date = syst-datum
   importing week = zlv_week.
SELECT SINGLE *
      FROM tvarvc
     WHERE name = 'Z_THISWEEK'
       AND type = 'S'
       AND numb = '0000'.
tvarvc-low = zlv_week.
IF syst-subrc <> 0.
    tvarvc-name     = 'Z_THISWEEK'.
    tvarvc-type     = 'S'.
    tvarvc-opti     = 'EQ'.
    tvarvc-sign     = 'I'.
    tvarvc-numb     = '0000'.
    insert tvarvc.
ELSE.
update tvarc.

How to create a F4 help for a report selection screen field

hi,
can any one guide me to create F4 help for a field in a selection screen in a report program,plz give me a sample code

hi,
Here are the following ways
1.with the help of match code objects we can create the F4 Functionality for Field.
Syntax is :
PARAMETERS: p_org LIKE t527x-orgeh MATCHCODE OBJECT zorg.
2. One more thing is we can do it with Search Help's also.
3. Even we can do it HELP Views also.
Help Views:
You have to create a help view if a view with outer join is needed as selection method of a search help
The selection method of a search help is either a table or a view. If you have to select data from several tables for the search help, you should generally use a database view as selection method. However, a database view always implements an inner join. If you need a view with outer join for the data selection, you have to use a help view as selection method.
All the tables included in a help view must be linked with foreign keys. Only foreign keys that have certain attributes can be used here. The first table to be inserted in the help view is called the primary table of the help view. The tables added to this primary table with foreign keys are called secondary tables.
The functionality of a help view has changed significantly between Release 3.0 and Release 4.0. In Release 3.0, a help view was automatically displayed for the input help (F4 help) for all the fields that were checked against the primary table of the help view. This is no longer the case in Release 4.0.
As of Release 4.0, you must explicitly create a search help that must be linked with the fields for which it is offered (see Linking Search Helps with Screen Fields ).
Existing help views are automatically migrated to search helps when you upgrade to a release higher than 4.0.
A help view implements an outer join, i.e. all the contents of the primary table of the help view are always displayed. You therefore should not formulate a selection condition for fields in one of the secondary tables of the help view. If records of these secondary tables cannot be read as a result of this selection condition, the contents of the corresponding fields of the secondary table are displayed with initial value.

Authorization object for plant on selection-screen

Hi All,
I need to cehck the authorization object for plant on sleection screen..the palnt is select-options.
I have written the code
Declaration of local constants.
CONSTANTS : lc_i(1) TYPE c VALUE 'I',
              lc_eq(2) TYPE c VALUE 'EQ'.
REFRESH : r_werks.
LOOP AT s_werks.
    IF s_werks-low IS NOT INITIAL.
      AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'M_MATE_WRK'                "Check if the user has autorization for the plant.
                           ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '03'
                           ID 'WERKS' FIELD s_werks-low.
      IF sy-subrc NE 0.
        r_werks-sign   = lc_i.
        r_werks-option = lc_eq.
        r_werks-low    = s_werks-low.
        APPEND r_werks.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT s_werks.
    IF s_werks-high IS NOT INITIAL.
      AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'M_MATE_WRK'                "Check if the user has autorization for the plant.
                           ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '03'
                           ID 'WERKS' FIELD s_werks-high.
      IF sy-subrc NE 0.
        r_werks-sign   = lc_i.
        r_werks-option = lc_eq.
        r_werks-low    = s_werks-high.
        APPEND r_werks.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
My doubt is will the authorization will check the plants in between 1001 and 2001..suppose i have pplants 1001,1002,1003,1004,2001..Now will the above code will check for all the plants or only 1001 and 2001 if i specify in the select-options.
Regards,
raj

Hi Raj
First no need to LOOP AT s_werks and check s_werks-high as it will always be present only once in the table s_werks.
Do this
SELECT werks FROM t001w INTO li_werks
WHERE werks IN s_werks.
LOOP AT li_werks.
*check your authority thing here and fill the range
ENDLOOP.

Enabling Key and text for the Variable Selection screen

I need to display key and text for a characteristic when selecting the drop down menu in the variable selection screen of a web report. In the Business Explorer tab within the info-object, I changed the General Settings to display Key and text, but when I open the drop down menu for this characteristic, it is still displaying the key only. Is there some other place where this change needs to happen?

Hi,
Did you try to log out and log in again into BEx?

F4 help for timestamp on selection screen

Hi experts!
I have this code in custom ALV report:
selection-screen: begin of block b1 with frame title text-t01.
DATA: w_aux_sc_created_at like ztable-sc_created_at.
SELECT-OPTIONS s_sc_c02 for w_aux_sc_created_at.
Ztable-sc_created_at is COMT_CREATED_AT_USR (data element)
COMT_CREATED_AT_USR is standard data type (DEC, lenght 15) domain COM_TSTMP --> UTC Time Stamp Short Form (YYYYMMDDhhmmss) (Output sy-zonlo)
Ok, I would like to show a calendar for select date in my SELECT-OPTIONS custom ALV report like MATCHCODE OBJECT.
A lot of thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Moderator message: please use more descriptive subject lines from now on, changed for you this time
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Nov 8, 2010 9:44 AM

thanks you for your answer but I fixed it.
I created a select-options in date form (with F4 help) and I convert it to timestamp for my select sentence.

How to adjust mouse or trackpad parameters for the user selection screen?

This is not critical, but annoying. I can change the mouse or trackpad parameters by user, so anyone can use their own mouse or trackpad adjustment. However I can not locate how to change this parameters for the welcome or user selection screen. In my case I have two users, both of us use the trackpad with the one touch for click function, so no one press physically the trackpad for a click. However, as the default parameter is the touch function deactivated we have to actually click the trackpad in that exclusive screen.
Another example with mouse, normally we use the mouse with almost double of the default acceleration, but when in the user selection screen the mouse assumes default configuration and feels super SLOWWWWWWW.
Again, this is not critical, but would be very nice to be able to modify this parameters in the welcome screen.

For the login screen, you are not associated with a normal user, but the system defaults...try logging in to the Admn account and change the behavior there...those settings should then apply to the login screen.

Need solution for the following(Selection Screen)

Hi all,
currently iam working with report program,there i need to populate one field in the selection screen based on the another parameter in the same selection screen.
iam having field called work center as a parameter with the search help.
This search help is providing the corresponding plant for the particular work center.
Now what i need to do is,if i select the work center thru F4 help,i need the correseponding plant to get populated in the other textbox.
Currently iam having that work center field as parameter,
now i need another textbox for the plant adjacent to this workcenter textbox,in this textbox only i need that corresponding plant.
Following is the code for that workcenter textbox.
PARAMETERS:P_ARBPL LIKE CRHD-ARBPL MATCHCODE OBJECT CRAM.
Note: The Serach help CRAM is having corresponding plant with the workcenter.

Hi swaminathan,
1. If u want to DIRECTLY
   populate other fields
   based upon selection,
then we have to use our own
selection function.
2. just copy paste this code in new program.
( it will display help for BUKRS
and AS SOON AS the user selects some company code,
the other fields
get populated AUTOMATICALLY)
3.
