Drop down in REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

Hi,
I am using REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY function module,
I am facing a problem with drop down list used for the fields that are displayed in ALV.
To get the search help or drop down for the field I am using the below code in field catalogue.
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-fieldname = 'VBTYP'.
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-ddictxt = 'M'.
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-seltext_m = 'VBTYP' .
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-seltext_l = wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-seltext_s = wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-seltext_m.
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-reptext_ddic = wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-seltext_s.
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-ddic_outputlen = 1 .
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-col_pos = 4.
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-edit = 'X'.
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-ref_fieldname = 'VBTYP' .
wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv-ref_tabname = 'ZVBOOKING'.
APPEND wa_p_i_fieldcat_alv TO p_i_fieldcat_alv.
But for the field VBTYP the values are maintained in domain level value range.
So when I enter any value in the field 'VBTYP' and save the value, and try to deleted that value, FM is poping me an error message 'Enter an valid value', which should not happen, since its not a mandatory field in ZVBOOKING table.
Please any one guide me how to over come it.
Correct answer, points will be rewarded.
Regards,
Nithya

How to create Drop-Down with Function Module REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

Hi Experts,
I have used Reuse_alv_grid_display function module in my report for ALV output. I have a requirement to add drop down in one cell of my output. I have searched but all are suggesting through OOPS programing that I can not use.
If it is possible with the given scenerion , please help me how to write the code for it?
Thanks a bunch in advance.

Hi,
You can check demo programs:

Drop down text options

I'm looking for feedback on other options for displaying drop
down text. I'm getting feedback from my users that they don't
understand that green italic text (or what ever format is used)
assumes drop down text. Most people are now used to seeing collapse
and expand icons to represent drop down information. I have used
the twisties in some of my projects but in this specific case, i am
using the Show/Hide All script and there appears to be a conflict
with the 2 scripts.
I'm just curious if there are other methods used to represent
or display that an item on the page is a drop down link, other than
expand or collapse icons.

Are you talking about the twisty / show hide methods on my
site? If so please see the introductory topic that refers to a
script that does allow both to work together.

How to get ALL values as default for a drop down box in JSF

Hi,
I have a drop down box in JSF page which retrieves values from LOVCache.java. I have values like Company, Client, User, ALL in the drop down box.
By default blank value is selected for the drop down box. I want to make ALL(which retrieves data for all the values) as default value for the drop down box.
Could any body help me? Any help must be appreciated.
Thanks,
Aseet

Thanks Nikhil. But I am fetching the values from the LOVCache.java.
I am using <af:selectManyChoice>. Is there any way I can use LOVCache.java value for selecting default values instead of hard coding?
I mean to say can I write
unselectedLabel="#{LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList.anyValue}"
where LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList is used to populate the drop down box.
Regards,
Aseet

How do I use one drop down list to refresh the list in another drop down?

I am using a drop down list full of years (i.e. 2008, 2009..etc). When I make my selection from this drop down list (say for instance I select 2009) I want it to update the available data in the second drop down list. I have the query statement set up within the JSP page but it needs to be a dynamic SQL statement based off the value I selected in the first drop down.
String sql = "SELECT GameId, GameDescription FROM Games WHERE Year = " + year;
The variable "year" is the value I need to figure out how to assign. Now this variable is a Java variable (attribute) and Im unsure how to get the value from the previous drop down and assign it to that. Basically I need the JavaScript value from the first drop down assigned to the Java attribute "year".
Anyone able to help me with this???
Thanks,
Jed

Here are my two drop down lists. As you can see I build the second list dynamically based off the value of the year. I want to be able to assign my year to the value I select in this first drop down. How do I do that?? I only want to show games for the year I select. I currently have the year hardcoded to "2009" as you see below. How can i change that to be assigned to the JavaScript value i extract from the first select box?
<select name="season">
<option value='2009' selected>2009</option>
<option value='2008'>2008</option>
</select>
<select name="gameselect">
<%
try
String year = "2009";
String connectionURL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/ElmwoodExpos";
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionURL, "root", "thejedster");
String sql = "SELECT GameId, GameDescription FROM Games WHERE Year = " + year;
Statement s = con.createStatement();
s.executeQuery(sql);
ResultSet rs = s.getResultSet();
while(rs.next())
%>
<option value="1"><% out.print(rs.getString("GameDescription"));%></option>
<%
catch(Exception e)
%>
</select>
Thanks,

Is there a way to create a drop down menu with an automatic answer dependent on what is chosen?

Is there a way to create a drop down menu with an automatic answer dependent on what is chosen? An if-then statement perhaps? I am looking to add over 100 drop down options and would like to have a message automatically pop up depending one which option they chose. Thank you.

Hi,
You would use the skip logic to conditionally show form items based on the selection within the drop-down menu. Here's a link to a description of the feature in our help documentation:

Is there a way to create form fields to tab into and type and or drop down selection fields in pages as you can with microsoft word?

No

Is there a way to expand all drop-down text in a single topic in the editor?

I'm going through all the topics in a large RH10 project manually checking various things. A lot of topics contain drop-down text and to view the contents, I'm having to right click on each one and select 'Drop-down text properties'. Which is taking FOREVER. So:
a) is there an option to expand all drop-down text in the current topic? I'm sure I remember this from a previous version but can't find it now.
b) is there a keyboard shortcut to open drop-down text?
Please say yes.

a] Yes.
b] No.
There is nothing in Rh but there is a method on my site and on htttp://wvanweelden.eu The same scripts, just different explanations.

A custom view in the Edit drop-down

Hi,
How could I create a custom view and add it to the Edit List Item drop-down in SharePoint 2013? This screenshot shows what I mean in SharePoint 2010:

Using a variable/drop down list in header of planning layout

Dear all,
I have created a simple BPS application for purely GL planning (No CO related objects like cost centre involved). I have the following characteristics in the header of the manuel planning layout.
Business area
Chart of accounts
Company code
Currency
Currency Type
Fiscal year
Fiscal Year Variant
Fiscal year/period
Value type
Version
I have created variables for Business area, Fiscal Year, Fiscal Year Period, Posting Period and Version. The client wants either a variable or a drop down list for these characteristics in the header in the web application. When I assign a variable and put the characteristic in header, I get the error message in the web application saying header characteristic can only have a fixed value. Can someone tell me if it is possible and if so than how? I'll be very grateful for any inputs. Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Sumit

Hi,
When you create a variable, assign some values to the variable. These then become available in the drop down box. Ths first time a Web interface is called, these variable values are initial.As a result, u get the error messages. Select the variable values and then the error message should go away.
Thanks,

I installed a new printer and Acrobat Pro is not listing it as an option in the drop down box. Other apps are working. Printer is networked, platform is Windows.

sorry, other apps are working fine and finding the new printer. HP Officejet 8620.

I've rebooted numerous times, reloaded the software twice, spent 4 hrs on the phone with HP and 2 with Adobe. No luck. It simply doesn't show the new printer in the drop down menu for Pro or Reader and yet shows time in all in Office, Paint, Web options. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I am trying to get space on an external hard drive which has some old time machine back up files that I do not need but can not eliminate, even by going into the time machine, clicking on the backup file to be eliminated and using the drop down eliminate

I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots. Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
See Pondini's page for more explanation: What are Local Snapshots? http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.
The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library. Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

In the new Pages 5.0, what is the page break shortcut key. I cannot find the key as indicated on the drop down menu.

Hi Bruce and fruhulda,
ok, I found the keyboard viewer, it only shows the traditional symbol 'return'. something like a sideway u-turn continued with the arrow under. This is the Canadian or US keyboard.
btw thanks for your suggestion.

I have created a PDF form with multiple drop downs, all with the same drop down values. When I select a value from 1 of the drop down fields, it replicates in all of the others - which I do not want. How can I fix this?

I'm fairly new to this, but I think it has to do with the way you have the drop downs named. Did you copy one then keep pasting it in each field? If so, that is the problem. You should rename each one with a different number: Dropdown1, Dropdown2, etc. I think that might solve the issue.
