Custom match codes

Dear All,
There is one new error saying that "Custom matchcodes can no longer be used in the unicode systems". Please explain the error.
Regards
Akshay Korade

Hi Akshay
Probably you are using the ECC6 System which is UNICODE Enabled.The problem is that Matchcode are nop longer supported and you need to use search help instead of matchcodes.

Check search fields for (Customer) Match Codes

Dear experts,
In the TCODE OBB2 can i add new files name in searcg filds. Currently in the search fileds there are only General data fields are available, but i want to add PAN no or VAT No in search fields. Kindly do the needful.
Regards
abhi

Hi,
You must do it in SE11.
Go to seach help, set DEBI. You must add a new search help (eg: ZDEBI1).
You must add the fields KUNNR and BUKRS (set the flags import/export for this parameters). Add the field VAT (STCEG, STCD1,...). Set a selection method defined for this field. Set the parameter assignment.
The selection method you must create it in SE11 like a view. Check any other view like a sample.
I hope this helps you,

Possibility of giving match code for Manufacturer in Equipment Master

Hi -
We can have a field exit on fieler HERST of Equipment Master.
Is there any possibility of giving a match code on this filed? so that we can maintain a table for manufacturer and user can select any one entry from this table.
We do have activated filed exit for manufacturer check, but need to further restrict the entry so that there is uniformity of entry maintained in this field.
Kindly advice.

hi narendar,
some information :
In addition to the above mentioned exit we have also created a custom match code for this field in one of our project ... the exit gets triggerred whenver user hits enter and the value entered here is used in selection criteria that displays the custom popup window ... the data is picked from vendor master table the selection createria we used was vendor name and description and vendor acount group MNFR - for manufacturers would be defaulted and displayed.So you can go with creating a custom match code which is invoked whenever user selects F4...

How to modify an existing Match code selection for Vehicles

Hello,
In vehicle master Change or Display (T-code: O4V2 or O4V3) we eneter TD vehicle no. (OIGV-
VEHICLE). Here when we take a drop down - F4 (Match Code selection) and various options are available like
1). Vehicle Number and Description
2). General Data
3). Vehicle weights
4). Vehicle type etc
In Vehicle master under 'Communication Data' we have one field called 'Call Sign' (OIGV-VHCLSIGN). We would like to have this field in drop down selection / Match code selection for Vehicle on any of the above mentioned tab page in Match code selection (e.g. Say under 'General Data'). How do we add the same or how do I do this modification of existing matcode selection?
For Customer master we can maintain Match code selection in SPRO (Maintain Matchcodes for Customers) which I am aware of. I am looking for something similar for Vehicles or may be some direct development.
Can anyone please guide me in this?
Thanks & Regards,
Aniruddha.

Hi Anirudhdha,
Unlike customer match code there is no customising option for vehicles. But conceptually the same thing can be done. Create a single search help with the criteria you need. Add it to the collective search help OIGV (like we do for DEBI in customer master).

Match code result not copied in the transaction

Hi there,
I had a request to check the following problem : in transaction VF02 (billing doc change), when finding a document through custom match code using the reference field, double clicking on the document in the result box does not copy the document number to the VF02 field. This is frustrating for the users...It seems that this behaviour is new.
I understood this is controlled through a database view (in this case M_VMCFX). When I compare with a standard matchcode that doesn't give problem, I notice that there is no generated view info when I do F1+technical details with this match code, I have M_VMCFA for the standard match code...
Any idea ?

hi Philippe,
Goto SE11, enter the custom match code in search help field, choosing search help radio button.
Check the <b>EXP</b> check box is selected for the field under consideration.
Hope this helps,
Sajan Joseph.

Hi all!
I must put a match-code to a field custom.
I see the match-code to SAP R-3, but not to portal.
I must customizing the match-code to "customizing"?
Thanks to all.
Vanessa

Hi
I am sorry I thought that it is TPLNR field
for EQFNR there is no matchcode or search help
if you want you can create a matchcode/search help and add
It is a CHAR 30 field for which most of the times no values are entered

I wanto to call the function F4_DATE on matchcode input and transalte via ABAP the correct format.
How i set the match-code in a field of a dynpro? I tryed with "FIELD ZTBMODOMO-ZDTRICHIESTA MODULE DTRICHIESTA_0200 ON REQUEST." but it doesn't work for my proposal.
thanks a lot.
Marco

PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.

CUP - custom field and match code

Hi,
is it possible to have a custom field in CUP with a match code to help searching ?
the only two way that i found are dropdown lists for a table from a backend system and free field ( varchar, date, numeric)
thanks
Regards
Aurelien

Hi Aurelien,
You can create custom fields in CUP for the following types.
1 Text type
2 Numeric type
3 Date type
4 Drop down
a) drop down data define in CUP
b) Drop down data coming from backend table.
If you want a request to be associated with a match code that helps you seaching the request later.
Than create an text type custom field and use in a workflow.
While a creating the request define the value of custom field.
Now you can serch request on the basis of the value define in the custom field.
Kind Regards,

GO TO SELL CREATA ASEARCH HELP ZTEST
GIVE SOME SHORT DESC

Match Codes

Hi,
I am trying to use a single select option in the report
s_acct FOR bsid-kunnr DEFAULT 9999990000 TO 9999999999.
Also,I have two radio buttons
p_ap RADIOBUTTON GROUP r1,
p_ar RADIOBUTTON GROUP r1,
I AM TRYING TO ACHIEVE:(F4 functionality depending on the radio buttons selected)
If p_ap is selected i am trying to get match codes(F4)
of Vendors(bsik-lifnr) and if p_ar is selected get the match code of Customer(bsid-kunnr).
Please let me know if there is any easy workaround.
Thank You,
Rao

Even if you use one select option you will have to do some processing to differentiate in your database selections in report . Why dont you use two select options like this ( Only one will be displayed on screen at a time depending on radibutton and you don't need to code for F4 )
<b>TABLES : LFA1, KNA1.
PARAMETERS : p_ap RADIOBUTTON GROUP r1 USER-COMMAND VEN default 'X',
             p_ar RADIOBUTTON GROUP r1.
SELECT-OPTIONS S_VEN FOR LFA1-LIFNR MODIF ID LIF.
SELECT-OPTIONS S_CUS FOR KNA1-KUNNR MODIF ID KUN.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT .
IF P_AP EQ 'X'.
   LOOP AT SCREEN.
     CHECK SCREEN-GROUP1 EQ 'KUN'.
     SCREEN-ACTIVE = 0.
     MODIFY SCREEN.
   ENDLOOP.
ELSE.
   LOOP AT SCREEN.
     CHECK SCREEN-GROUP1 EQ 'LIF'.
     SCREEN-ACTIVE = 0.
     MODIFY SCREEN.
   ENDLOOP.
ENDIF.</b>
Later in the program you can always copy both selction options to another ranges variable which you can use if required.
Cheers.

Match code help in sm30

Hi all,
Requirement is while entering values into a Ztable by SM30 ,
we need to have a standard search function (match code) for a field.
We are succeded till populating values to all the fields based on primary field in sm30,
stuck while creating search help for one of the field.
Regards,
Anil.
A suggestion can make a difference.

Without programming, you may provide a search help with
● Attaching a search help to the data element
● Attaching the data element to a domain with values (in domain or a value table)
● Creating a foreign key with another table
Look also at standard SAP documentation like [Attaching to a Table Field or Structure Field|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/63/1b70bfc32111d1950600a0c929b3c3/frameset.htm] in [Search Helps|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/8b/415d363640933fe10000009b38f839/frameset.htm]
NB: Remember that when you define a maintain view you may change the Data Element, so you may substitute a custom Data Element with a custom search help.

Window freezes when Product category selected via match-code (search help)

Hello Experts,
I am using SRM 7.0 Extended Classic Scenario.
I maintained a product category hierarchy in the SRM environment.
I maintained the GL Accounts related, the tax determination, the source system etc.
I did all this customizing in a Development environment where everything was working fine.
Now I just transported all this to a Quality environment.
And in the Quality I am facing the following issue :
If I select a product category via the match-code (search help), after the category is selected, the window freezes.
I have to shut it down manually using the Windows Close button.
However, when I type the category number, everything works fine.
Do you have any idea what could be causing this issue, and how to fix it ?
Thanks in advance,
Sofiane

Hello,
We have the exact same issue in SRM 7.0 Extented Classic Scenario. This was working fine before we installed the latest support package 11. Which support package do you have?
The same problem occurs with every drop down menu (search help) in EBP. For example when creating a new shopping cart, if I try to add approver, the same thing happens. After clicking 'Approval Process: Display / Edit Agents' > 'Add Approver', the window freezes. Same thing happens with IE8 and Firefox 3.6.13. Could you also try the same?
Could it be a new bug in SP11?
Thanks and best regards,
Matti Hokkanen

Security in Match Codes

Dear all,
Is there a way to restrict values in standar match codes? I want some users to be not allowed to see some values.
Any help on this topic will be really appreciated and rewarded
Thanks in advance

Hi Federico,
The AUTHORITY-CHECK checks whether a user has the appropriate authorization to execute a particular activity.
AUTHORITY CHECK OBJECT <object name>
ID <name1> FIELD <f1>
ID <name2> FIELD <f2>
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
For Matchcode (which is now called Search help) go to the link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/c9/83eb02be4c11d1950200a0c929b3c3/content.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/cf/21ee93446011d189700000e8322d00/content.htm
If it is in a custom program you can do this check in the event AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST.
Reward points if this helps.
