CheckBox in search help restriction dialog.

Hi Experts,
I have created one search help with dialog value restrictions. Search help contains 6 fields.
Out of which three fields has length one character(Data Element XFELD).
As soon as user press on F4 on particular field, it will display pop-up window with restrictions and displayed 6 fields.
I would like to show that fields(with Data Element as XFELD) as Check Box in search help restrictions pop-up window.
Pls help... How can we do this.
Thanks
Vinod

Hi,
Kindly check the standard search help "F4TESTCHECKBOX".  Copy it and change the dialog type to 'Display with restrictions' . On execution,  you will notice that -
i) On the restriction screen the checkbox is displayed as textbox .
ii)  In list display , checkbox is displayed correctly .
Follow Raymond's suggestion,
You could define your own selection-screen, and display it in a search-help exit : if step = 'PRESEL', display your screen, modify selected values in table shlp-interface  and force next step as 'SELECT' to bypass standard selection-screen.
Regards,
DPM

  • Creating customized search helps in Dialog Programming

    Hello people I have a little predicament here. I need to create search help restricting the results.
    Like lets say I want to create a search help that select material numbers and name for a specific material group. Then use that as a seach help.
    Right now Im playing around with function module <b>HELP_VALUES_GET_WITH_TABLE</b> but it seems to open right when you access call screen.
    Also Since this is dialog programming I am using screen painter. And I need to assign the search help in an I/O Field.
    Well that's all for now take care guys. Take care to you all.

  • Disable fields in search help restriction window

    Hi Experts,
    Here is the situation:
    I have created the new search help for material number and assigned this search help in my module pool program.
    As soon as user press F4 button on material number , it will display search help restrictions window with 4 fields ( material, material type, plant, plant status).
    I have set default value for the material type in search help itself. But I would like to disable this field.
    I mean .... user should not enter any other values other than my default value. So I should disable the material type field in searh help restrictions window.
    Pls help me.

  • Search help in dialog program

    Hi all,
    Fora search help in dialog program.
    I HAVE TO GET SEARCH FOR A FIELD ZID ON APARTICULAR SCREEN BASED ON DATA, MODIFIED BY AND A PLANT..
    I HAVE A RECORD IN ONE MY ZTABLE.
    I HAVE TO GET THAT BY SEVERAL SEARCH PARAMETERS SAY BY DATE , MODIFIED BY,PLANT ETC.
    each user has been assigned a plant , so in search he has to get records belonging to that plant.
    so i cannot include plant in my search help, because user may type in other plant.
    so i tried two ways
    1) i created a search help in se11 including the plant field again the problem arises if the user types a different plant.
    so i want to know whether we can apassa value to plant field in search help(i.e the plant assigned to the user),
    i have this kind of thing in some standard t -code i.e especially for searching material , the plant field in search help was filled by one plant.
    this should be one of the solution
    2)I tried to write a code in pov of program code.
    this is how my code looks.
    DATA : BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0.
         INCLUDE  STRUCTURE ZXXX.
    DATA : END OF ITAB.
    ITAB HAS FIELDS ID, DATE , MODIFIEDBY , PLANT.
    USER_PLANT = 'ABC'.

              clear itab.
              read table it_return4 index 1.
                ZXXX-ZID = it_return4-fieldval.
    endif.
    THIS WORKS FINE , BUT HE CANNOT SEARCH BASED ON DATE AND MODIFIEDBY
    ALL i want is is get a pop up window and should be able to search based on data and modifiedby for a predifined plant.
    I hope iam clear.
    Thanks

  • Search Help - Restricting entries in standard search helps

    Hi, is there any way to restrict entries in an SAP supplied search help?  The search help in question is 'SSH_T007A', this search help also has a user exit 'F4_TAXCODE_USER_EXIT'.  I'm not sure if the user exit is of any use or how to use it.  Ideally what I need to do is to restrict the list of applicable tax codes to only those that we want our users to select.  Does anyone have an idea of how to do this with a minimum of customization?
    Thanks in advance,
    Kevin May

    Hi Seshatal,
         Thanks for the input, but this field does NOT  have any ON VALUE REQUEST event associated with it ....
       as soon as F4 is hit, it goes to Function help_start ,so I don't think we can make any changes here as it is standard .
       I think including a standard search help will help....how to achieve this ?
    Thanks,

  • Search help restricted selection

    Dear All,
    Can we restrict search help to display only desired value.
    for example I have two input fields one each for plant and storage location and I want to display possible values for Storage location based on the input plant.
    is it possible?
    I am using a search help based on table T001L
    Can you guys help me on this.
    Thanks
    Amit

    For plant and storage location, this is handle automatically by the standard search helps.  I believe you need to use the memory ids to force this behavior.  Please try this as it works good in my system.
    report zrich_0001.
    tables: mseg.
      select-options WERKS for MSEG-WERKS memory id WRK.
      select-options LGORT for MSEG-LGORT memory id LAG.

  • Problem with respect to Search Help AND Dialog Progg

    Dear All,
                      I have a screen 0100, wherein Input-output field 'Veh_num' is created.
      Also there are another Input-output fields ( S_Date and S_time).
    Now end-user just displays records in screen when puts Veh_num(Vehicle number) in the field and clicks DISPLAY.
    Now problem arises when two Veh_NUM(Vehicle numbers) are present on same date but different on different time.
    i created a SEARCH HELP for the input-out field VEH_NUM(vehecle number).............where both records are displayed. But when user select any record of the two, always only a particular record is displayed on the screen.
    I Think the problem lies when User selects a row from the search help,  Only VEH_NUM gets transferred to the screen. I think If along with the Vehicle number, If S_time is also transferred then the problem will get solved.
    Search Help has 1 input(Veh_num).......and 3 Output fields( Veh_num, S_Date and S_time.).
    Pls suggest.
    Thanks in advance

    hi dsilva,
    Is ur Requirement is, that u need to select vehicle number and values corresponding to that
    number i,e Date and Time should get displayed on the screen?.
    Use Dictionary Fields if U Have, to define ur input/output fields
            OR.
    follow the below steps.
    1) First Check the serach help which u have created works as per ur requirement.
    2) The screen which u have designed has an input field(Vehicle Number).U may Have taken the
    field from Progarm or any other variable to define it.Don't do that.
    3) First Create a structure from SE11 and Define fields Vehicle Number and Date and Time.
    4) Assign Search help to the field Vehicle Number in the Structure.
    5) Use this Struture in your screen desigining.
    6) Then it automatically picks up the values and dislplays on the screen for a corresponding vehicle number.

  • Hi,   search help     --   restricted value

    hi
    there is already a search help for a field in one of the transaction codes in fico. i think this search help is attached in code by writing match code syntax.
    but my prob is that this search help for the particular field shows 10 char and out of this 10 char i need to show only 5 char from 3 to 7 when the user press f4.
    eg. 1234567890 i need to show 34567 only without changing the se38 code.
    when user press f4 he gets lots of records and all records should show 5 char only, now it is showing 10 char.
    is it possible, if yes, then how???
    pl can anybody help me.

    exit HRMC_PREM_EXIT_A in HR. Everything works fine except for that I want to restrict the number of hits to 500, I don't want to get a result of 5000 hits because that search takes too long time.

    Hello Benita
    Set the dialog type of your search help = 'A' (dialog depends on set of values).
    Regards

  • Search help value restriction fields

    Hi experts,
    I have modified the existing search help by  using "SEARCH HELP EXIT".
    Here is the situation:
    As soon as I press F4 button on particular field, it will display search help restrictions window with 4 fields.
    suppose if I enter material number on material number field, it should display only particular material not all materials.
    Normally it was working fine before I written search help exit.
    In search help exit I am selecting values directly from database table with out consider restrictions window parameters.
    How to findout the restrictions window parameter names ( I mean screen field name). So that I can add those fields in my select statement where condfition.
    Pls help me.
    Thanks in advance
    Raghu

    I got the solution. Any how Thanks.

  • Field values are repeating for search help.

    Hello Friends.
    I have a problem. When I create a search help for a field the identical field values are repeating. What should I do to trigger only the first time.
    for example:
    <u>Field-name</u>-                        <u>field-value</u>
    Supplier Nr ---                                 Commodity
    5001 -
                                               casting
    5002 -
                                               casting
    5003 -
                                               casting
    So when I create the search help for commodity it is showing 'casting' 3 times in a pop-up window. It should not repeat. Can you please give me the solution what should I do?

    Hi
    Search helps
    Standard search help
    Types of search helps
    Concept of search help
    Search Help Interface
    Dialog behavior of search helps
    Selection method for search helps
    Performance of search helps
    Attaching search helps
    Hierarchy of search helps
    Standard Search Help
    The input help (F4 help) is a standard function of the R/3 System. It permits the user to display a list of possible values for a screen field. A value can be directly copied to an input field by list selection.
    The fields having an input help are shown in the R/3 System by the input help key to the right of the field. This key appears as soon as the cursor is positioned on the corresponding screen field. The help can be started either by clicking on this screen element or with function key F4.
    If the number of possible entries for a field is very large, you can limit the set of displayed values by entering further restrictions.
    Further meaningful information about the displayed values is included in the display of possible entries, especially if the field requires that a formal key be entered.
    TYPES OF SEARCH HELPS
    Elementary search helps
    Describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
    Collective search help
    Combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
    Search Help Interface
    Search help interface determines how the exchange of values between the screen template and the selection method is implemented.
    The search help interface defines the context data that can be used in the input help and the data that can be returned to the input mask. Analogously to the interface of a function module, the search help interface comprises interface parameters.
    When you define an interface parameter of a search help, you must also define whether it should be used to copy data to the input help (IMPORT parameter) or whether it should be used to return data from the input help (EXPORT parameter). A parameter of a search help can also have both attributes at the same time.
    The location from which the IMPORT parameters of a search help get their values and the screen fields in which the contents of the EXPORT parameters of the search help are returned are defined in the search help attachment. The search help itself should always be attached to an EXPORT parameter of the search help. If this parameter is also the IMPORT parameter, its contents are only used in the input help if it is a search string (that is, if it contains a ´*´ or a ´+´).
    You must define the parameter types of a search help. You can do this by assigning them data elements.
    Value Transport for Input Helps
    NOTE:In the above example, screen fields A, B and C are linked with parameters of the search help. As a result, values can only be transported between the screen and the search help for these three fields. Existing contents of screen fields A and B can be used for selecting the hit list since they are linked with an import parameter of the search help. The values of parameters A and C can be returned to the screen from the hit list since these parameters are declared as export parameters of the search help.
    Description of dialog behavior
    A hit list might contain plentiful number of entries. A
    dialog provides the user with an option to restrict the
    entries displayed on the hit list.
    In an input help process, the set of possible entries is presented in the dialog box as a list for displaying the hit list. The user selects the required value from this list by double clicking. Since the possible entries are often formal keys, you must be able to display further explanatory information about the possible entries in the list.
    If the set of possible entries is very large, the user should be able to define additional conditions for the attributes of the selected entry. Restricting the set of data in this way both increases the clarity of the list and reduces the system load. Additional conditions can be entered in a further dialog window, the dialog box for restricting values.
    Specifying the dialog type of a search help defines whether the dialog box for restricting values should be offered and if so under what conditions.
    The attributes in the dialog box for displaying the hit list or in the dialog box for restricting values must be defined as internal parameters of the search help. An internal parameter can also be used in only one of the two dialog boxes. It can also belong to the search help interface.
    The internal parameter types are also defined with data elements. These data elements define how the parameters are displayed in the two dialog boxes.
