Do we have search help facility in variable selection (F4 help).

Hi All,
At my client place users are comfort with R/3 search help (F4), and looking for the same feature in Bex Reporting. Is it possible to have the same kind of feature in Bex reports.
Example.
In R/3 T-Code MB5B, user searches with material description or with some other options like sales material by general product hierarchy. Can we get the same kind of feature.
And my client says that if we drop down for material it is taking huge amount of time to display the material numbers and description, we want to know how to reduce the time for displaying the material or customer master data text in variable selections.
In Bex we are aware of material text is going to display as small or medium or long descriptions, when we drop down.
Your suggestions are most valuable to us.
Thanks in Advance.

Goto se11
in  data type  :  put  KIDNO  change  mode   ... avoid the  messges  ....
there  in theDefinition   :  put your new  Search Help   activate  it  ....
so that   it will be attached..
otherwise there  so many ways of attaching the serach help   for F4 ..
Implementing search Helps 
Search helps can be implemented in a variety of ways:
1 .Add to Table field Added via SE11: Place cursor on desired field within database and select menu path  Goto->Search help->for field
Effect: If field used to create screen field, search help will be called when user executes F4/drop down input help. All fields on screen will be populated if appropriate fields exist in search help and screen.
2.Add to Table  Added via SE11: Place cursor on desired field within database and select menu path  Goto->Search help->for table
3.Add to Data element Added via SE11: Select desired data element (double click), enter search help name and parameters in appropriate fields on screen. Will be applied to all fields associated with that data element
4.Add to Screen field Added via screen painter: One of field attributes is search help. Will only populate the one screen field.
5.Add to Sel. screen parameter (MATCHCODE) Added using 'matchcode' addition for parameters declaration: Search help name must be no more than 5 characters long.
e.g. PARAMETER p_prog LIKE trdir-name MATCHCODE OBJECT zsh.
Rewatrd  points if it is usefull ...

  • "500 internal server error" when trying to use F4 help in the variable sele

    Hi Experts,
    I am getting "500 internal server error" when trying to use F4 help in the variable selection screen (in WAD).
    How could this be resolved?
    Quick reply would be very helpfull.
    Thanks in advance !!

    It seems you are using wrong client ID. Make sure your logon pad has right details. You should verify this with your basis team.
    If the problem persists then try re-installing. But before you do that you can execute sapbexc.xla which is in the c:\program files\sap\bw. Type c:\ in cell c3 and click "start button". Any red flag means you have wrong version dll/ocx on your local drive, in that case you should reinstall with right patches.

  • Adding a message to the variable selection screen

    Hi there
    I have been asked to find a way to add a message to the variable selection screen.
    It appears that DIVISION needs to be added to the selection screen, as this makes the query run faster. However, they don't actually want the user to enter a division, as this causes other problems.
    So, ideally, I would be able to add a message to the variable selection screen that advises users against entering a value for division.
    I don't know how to do this.
    I create the web template, and I can therefore add messages or anything you like to the template, but I don't believe I have any control over the variable selection screen.
    Does anyone know if this is possible?
    We are running a 2004s system if that helps.
    Cheers,
    Andrew

    Hello,
    Well i think if you make the variable used for division not ready for input it would not be available for the users to input anything.
    you can find the checkbox for this in the properties of the variable in query designer.
    Hope this matches your requirement.

    Andrew,
    You cannot customize the variable entry screen - atleast not in BI3.x since SAP advices storngly against it. I guess the same applies to BI7 also.
    What you could do it
    1. Have an exit that fills in the values and is not shown by default
    2. Have the variable on division but make it optional and remove the ready for input option for the same
    3. Have a HTML variable selection window and then pass the values to your report - but then you will not get the F4 help for the same here.

  • HT203164 help! i am using itunes 10.6.1.7 and windows vista 64. itunes will no longer burn cds. i have searched online and tried all i saw that could possibly fix it and it is still not working.

    i have tried:
    reloading itunes
    unchecking 'write'
    removing lower filters in regedit
    ensuring i had the correct 'gear' info in the upper filters in regedit
    removing 'gear' from regedit, system32
    reloading updated version of 'gear'
    cleaning my registery
    deleting itunes
    cleaning registry again
    reloading itunes
    cleaning registry again
    i still cannot burn cd. t i can import and play cds in itunes and i can watch dvds. itunes will just not burn to blank cds, and i have tried sever new blank cds, each is not recognized.
    i do not know what else to do, i have searched the internet and whatever i saw doable i tried.
    when i check the cd drive in itunes i had gotten a 4220 error, cnet advised to download a free error fixer, however, this error fixer gave me and enduser message, so that didn't work.
    the diagnostic for the cd burner read that i had to put in a formatted disc with content so i did and there are the results of that were that it read the cd and that the 4220 errir code was encountered last time there was an attempt to burn.
    and 'could not open cd handler 32. there is a problem with the installation of the drive in windows or the drive contains a copyprotected cd.
    the above is not the case as it also popped up for me to import cd to itunes.
    i tried to copy and past the entire contents here but it would not allow me to paste.
    please help!

    I too have only recently encountered this problem. I have been able to burn disks before but it keeps making all these weird sounds. It might be a hardware problem but the fact that everything else that uses a disk works I doubt it.

  • When looking at my "About This Mac" it says that I have 60gb of space left on my hard drive, but when I go into finder to find all of these files there is not 300gb worth in anything I search, even searching, "All files on the Mac". Help!?

    When looking at my "About This Mac" it says that I have 60gb of space left on my hard drive, but when I go into finder to find all of these files there is not 300gb worth in anything I search, even searching, "All files on the Mac". Help!?
    It says I have over 150 gigs of video on my hard drive. But I have gone through and deleted almost all of what shows up, still it says there is roughly the same amount on the hard drive. Where are these files? I want to delete them so I can have my hard drive clear.
    Thanks for your help guys!

    Quote from the article.
    Time Machine in OS X Lion includes a new feature called "local snapshots" that keeps copies of files you create, modify or delete on your internal disk. Local snapshots compliment regular Time Machine backups (that are stored on your external disk or Time Capsule) giving you a "safety net" for times when you might be away from your external backup disk or Time Capsule and accidentally delete a file.
    So what makes a notebook any different then a desktop, other then with a desktop you might have your tm backup drive connected all the time.
    The object here is to not indiscriminately delete files you need or want to keep. I personally have never deleted a file I wanted to keep.
    In essence a backup is for catastrophic failure of your system. So it can be restored once that failure has been fixed. Not because you go in willy nilly and start deleting files.

  • I backup to an external hdd with Time Machine, when it ran out of space it did not delete old backups, now my internal hdd says its full when before it had heaps of space. I have searched for extra files but cant find any. Can anyone help, please.

    I backup to an external hdd with Time Machine, when it ran out of space it did not delete old backups, now my internal hdd says its full when before it had heaps of space. I have searched for extra files but cant find any. Can anyone help, please.

    First, empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
    To locate large files, you can use Spotlight as described here. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
    You can also use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
    Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means.
    When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.
