Can Search help in Web Portal be made so that it is NOT case sensitive?

We have a number of reports that users access via the web portal. Most of these reports have a variable selection screen that appears so that users can pre-filter the report before executing it. When the user selects search help on any of the variables and attempts to search the text values, the search is case-sensitive. But we have some data stored all caps and some data stored mixed case, so this isn't very convenient for the user. I would like to be able to set up the search window so that the searches are not case sensitive. Is there a global setting that can accomplish this, or can the search page be customized? Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I have the same issue. There was a fix in 3.5 using function module RSA_CHA_BUILD_QUERY however this doesn't exist in 7.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Search help for Web Dynpro using the SAP-search help

Hi,
Im trying to create a generic search help for Web Dynpro using the SAP-search help. It should working so, that I construct a Web Dynpro-component, that gets the data of the search help from the SAP-system, interpreted it and creates the ui-elements and the needed context generic.
The mapping between the Input field of the customerview and the right search help is to be made with an xml-file, which contains the information: name of the view, the input field, the search-help-name and the name of the field that will be returned.
The xml-file is reading from a helper-class. That helper-class contains any information, witch need the search help-component as well as the customer-component.
The initialization takes place in the method wdDoModify of the customer. The call of the search help from the customer should be implement with an Action, witch is bound to a Button(create dynamic in the helper-class behind the input field).
In a second foot should be create a plugin for eclipse, witch insert the used files (search help component, helper class, ) in the project. In addition it should create the call in the customer generic.
It would be great if someone can give me a feedback!

Hi Mike,
The BlanketAgreement.exe is a reference to the executable that will be created when you compile the solution you created in Part II - Part III. I think there is a mistake in the tutorial because it asks you to name the project 'Blanket' which means that by default the executable will be called Blanket.exe and not BlanketAgreement.exe. The tutorial also misses the step asking you to compile the Blanket project before you go on to create an installer. You should compile your Blanket project in Release mode before creating an installer. By compiling the project you'll get a Blanket.exe file in the bin folder of your Blanket project which you then need to add to the installer per the instructions.
SAP do offer development courses in some areas and there is training material here on the SDN and on the SAP partner portal (and maybe the customer portal as well). Try searching this forum for 'training' or 'tutorial' and you should get a few links. There's also a development certification.
Personally I'd recommend you give yourself a little project to work on and just get stuck in
Kind Regards,
Owen

Search Help Exit with portal (webdynpro)

Hi,
I'm implementing a customised search help for CAT2. In the portal it is using the webdynpro. I'm using the search help exit to populate the hit list that i want it to appear at both the R/3 backend and the portal side. I've also added the search help to the the table TCATS_SHLP_ITS where it defines the display field for the portal side.
It is working fine where the hit list is populating correctly. However, when the user select the record from the hit list, i want to display another value that i've populated at the search help exit to the expected field on the portal screen. HOw can i do that? FYI, the 1st display field in the table TCATS_SHLP_ITS, is not the value that i want it to display at the selected field on the portal screen.
Kindly assist. Many thanks.
Cheers,
Loo

Creating Search Help for Web Dynpro ABAP (FPM) Forms

Dear All ,
I am very new with SAP HCM P&F with FPM form. I am stuck with field search help functionality in FPM form. I have created on search help using
Web dynpro component to get all travel requests for all employees and linked it to FPM form field and its working fine....
But.... my requirement is how to filter travel request based on the PERNR (employee number) field in FPM form.
I think it can be achieved by using importing parameter LISTENER of interface IF_WD_VALUE_HELP_LISTENER but I am clueless how to pass PERNR to this interface to get travel requests for only employee number in field PERNR.
Kindly help me out in this issue.
Chohan

Use this code in set_value_help_listener
for e.g to read effective date.
wd_this->help_listener->f4_context_element->get_attribute( EXPORTING name = 'EFFECTIVE_DATE' IMPORTING value = wd_this->gv_eff_date ).

Search Help with Web Dynpro call on another system

Hi all,
I have to create a search help with web dynpro on a field but the database is on another system... How can I do?
Many Thanks in advance...

I would use a search help exit. Nothing WDA specific here, as this has been possible long before WDA came around. With a search help exit you define the search help like normal, but instead of database table or view being the source of selection, you have a function module. Within the coding of this function module you can call an RFC to read data from another system or call a web service if you need to bridge over to something that isn't ABAP based.

Prompted for credentials when running the Recovery Audit Report on MBAM Help Desk web portal

I am prompted for my credentials when I try to run the Recovery Audit Report on MBAM Help Desk web portal. I am a member of the MBAM Read Only Reports group which I specified during the web portal configuration wizard. I would like to suppress
the prompt for credentials.

Add the URL to the Local Intranet sites did not work. The Help desk web portal is on port 8088 and it does not allow you to specify the port when you add the URL to the Local Intranet sites. I am able to access the Reports page from the
Help Desk web portal when I open a browser on the IIS server, but the Reports page does not open without a prompt when I open a browser on a client. Strange.

Yuu can try to reactivate your iSight camera by opening up iMessage.. navigate to Preferences/Audio Video,and then click on Camera. IT shoudl be grayed-out if you only have one camera hooked up to your machine. If you have an external camera, then disconnect it from your machine.

Upgrade to the newest version of iTunes first to see if that helps.
