Dropdown list in WD-ABAP.

hi gurus,
I'm doing WD for ABAP and I'm trying to get contents into a dropdown list. I'm using DropDownListByKey. The contents come from a customizing table. I'm not sure where exactly I should add my coding: does it go into a supply function for my context attribute? Or in the method WDDOINIT? Basically, if you could point me towards some sample code, it would very user
Thanks in Advance,

Ravi.

Hi,
     As per your suggestion,i implemented the following code in the doinit Method,
but there is no value is populated in my dropdownlist box.
I check the code by debugging, <b><i>i am not getting any value in the following area
( ls_valueset-value = wa_kna1-kunnr.
   ls_valueset-text = wa_kna1-kunnr. )</i>   </b>
    kindly check the following code.
       data: lt_valueset type standard table of wdr_context_attr_value,
               ls_valueset type wdr_context_attr_value,
             lr_node_info type ref to if_wd_context_node_info,
             lr_node type ref to if_wd_context_node,
             wa_kna1 type kna1,
             lt_kna1 like table of wa_kna1.
      lr_node = wd_context->get_child_node( 'NODE_KNA1MOD' ).
      lr_node_info = lr_node->get_node_info( ).
      loop at lt_kna1 into wa_kna1.
         ls_valueset-value = wa_kna1-kunnr. "this will be the selected value
         ls_valueset-text = wa_kna1-kunnr.   "this will be the displayed value in the UI
          append ls_valueset to lt_valueset.
      endloop.
    lr_node_info->set_attribute_value_set(
                            exporting
                              name       = 'KUNNR'
                              value_set = lt_valueset ).
In the LAYOUT: i binded the selected key properties as kunnr.
   properties
         selectedkey = kunnr.

How to set a default value in dropdown list in Wendynpro ABAP? Help!

Hi Experts,
       I have Webdynpro for ABAP application that shows a DropdownwithKey UI element.
1. I am able to populate the dropdown list. But by default the list is not showing any value. Only when I select a value from the list then it shows it.
So how to set the default value to the first value in the list? Any code sample will be really helpfull.
I have written the following code:
method WDDOINIT .
DATA:
    node_category TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
node_category = WD_CONTEXT->GET_NODE_INFO( ).
node_category = node_category->GET_CHILD_NODE( 'CATEGORY' ).
data:    LT_VALUESET type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE_LIST,
           L_VALUE type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE.
L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V1'.
L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'yesterday'.
INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V2'.
L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'today'.
INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V3'.
L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'tomorrow'.
INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
node_category->SET_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_SET(
             NAME = 'CAT_VALUE'
             VALUE_SET = LT_VALUESET ).
endmethod.
Note that: I am using webdynpro for ABAP.
Thanks
Gopal

I am not sure how it works in Web Dynpro for ABAP, but in Web Dynpro for Java to set default drop down value you will have to set the value for particular attribute (which is linked to the dropdown element) in the context
like
wdContext.currentContext<nodeName>Element.set<FieldName>(<defalut value>)
This generally done in Initialization method of the controller.

Dropdown List Web dynpro Abap

Hi All
I am new to adobe forms. I am having a problem with populating drop down list box on an adobe interactive form. I have gone through this forum and I have tried a number of different things but nothing seems to work.
When I run my web dynpro application the drop down looks like an input box. There is no down arrow icon on the side.
I check note 981638. It states it can't be implemented.
I am on CRM 2007 NW7 platform.
I created an interface with an importing value called it_dropdown. this is a table.
I created a form that uses this interface.
i placed a drop down list on the form layout. In the dynamic options i click list items. I get a popup.
In the bindings I bind to the table... $record.IT_DROPDOWN.DATA[*]
The text and value are bound to corresponding fields on the internal table.
I created a webdynpro
I created a view.
I poped an interactive form ui elemnt on the view.
I generated the context.
I checked the cardinality of the node for the internal table and it is 0..n
In my doinit method I have the following code.
data: lr_form_node type REF TO if_wd_context_node.
data: lr_dd type REF TO if_wd_context_node.
data: lt_dropdown type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE_LIST,
           wa like line of lt_dropdown.
do 20 times.
    wa-value = sy-index.
    concatenate 'Test' wa-value into wa-text SEPARATED BY space.
    insert wa into table lt_dropdown.
enddo.
lr_form_node = wd_context->get_child_node( wd_this->wdctx_zfp_example_01 ).
lr_dd = lr_form_node->get_child_node( wd_this->wdctx_it_dropdown ).
lr_imp->bind_table( lt_dropdown ).
The adobe form displays but the drop down is not populated.
I have tried a normal drop down and webdynpro enumerated drop downs.
Can someone please point out what I am doing wrong.
Thanks
Darren

Hi Sachin
Here is exactly what I did.
1. Create a web dynpro application.
2. Crate a view
3. On the context create a node called data_source or whatever you want. The cardinality is 1.1.
4. Create an attriubute on the data_source note. I called mine 'DDOWN' and created it as a string.
5. Pop an interactive form element on your view.
6. In the Template Source, give the name of your adobe form. This part was the vital bit for me as I was using a database interface originally and I think that this was my problem. If you already have a form created that does not use xml, I would advise you to create a new temporary adobe form by putting the name in the template source and double clicking it.
7. You will get a popup stating asking you to create an interface. You will see a button called "context" click this and follow the steps.
8. When you get to your form you will see the drop down context node in the data hierarchy. Drop a drop down list on your form and then drag and drop your context node onto it. Make sure your forms layout is ZCI. Save the form.
9 Return to your web dynpro app. You will see that the datasource has been updated.
10. I used the following code in the doinit method of the web dynpro.
data: lr_context_node type ref to if_wd_context_node.
data: lt_dd type wdr_context_attr_value_list.
DATA: node_info TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
data: wa like line of lt_dd.
do 20 times.
    wa-value = sy-index.
    concatenate 'Test' wa-value into wa-text SEPARATED BY space.
    insert wa into table lt_dd.
enddo.
lr_context_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'ZDARREN1' ). "Template Source
node_info = lr_context_node->get_node_info( ).
node_info->set_attribute_value_set(
     name      = 'DDOWN'                                      "DDOWN is a node on the context
     value_set = lt_dd ).
Activate and test.
You should see a dropdown.
I hope this helps as this is the approach that worked for me.

Hi all,
We are trying to create a Adobe form using ISR library controls. We want to populate a dropdown list with all the values from the table T001 dynamically. We have implemented the BAdi QISR1 & populated the ADDITIONAL_DATA. The BAdi is executing & populating the value correctly.
In the we have created a control using the ISR Dropdown & mapped to the Context BUKRS from the interface created. When we execute the form, only the first value is getting filled.
Can anyone help us in this ??? Its very urgent....
Thanx,

but it is not working for me, will appreciate if some one really help me to fix this.!!!!

For the form buttons to work on-line in your WebDynpro app, you need to change the PDF form to be Dynamic:
     if(firstTime){
          // We need to set the PDF to be Dynamic, for the form JavaScript code to work
          IWDPDFDocumentInteractiveFormContext pdfContext =
          WDPDFDocumentFactory
          .getDocumentHandler(wdThis.wdGetAPI(), "InteractiveForm")
          .getDocumentContext();
          pdfContext.setDynamic(true);
In this code segment, "InteractiveForm" is the UI id.
I was able to get that far, but I although I add subforms dynamically via javascript, the mapped WebDynpro context node doesn't pick up any new elements.
ie: if I start with two WD context elements (0..n) cardinality, then add a third via the form JavaScipt button, I see changes only in the two context elements when I submit. A third context element isn't created or populated.

Customizing MSS reporting selection period dropdown list

We have diffrent ABAP programs that uses the PNP logical database and we want to customize the period selection dropdown list on the MSS reporting iview. In same scenarios we want to display only 'Today'. In these scenarios we use the report together with a variant.
When the user execute the report, the selection period on the variant is used and that is 100% correct. The problem is that the user change the selection period on the frontend (on the Iview) and this is not what is reflected on the output of the report, becasue the report uses a variant.
Therefore we want to customize the period selection dropdown list on the Iviewin the scenarios where a report uses a variant.
I know that we cannot customize the perido selction on the Iview, beacue we cannot set the properties on the Iview.
Is anybody familiar with how we can accomplish this.

Hi Darren,
We do have a property in the iview for which you can set the period. You need to know the name of the property. Give us the iview name so that we can have a look.

Data in dropdown list field are empty in PDF form

Hi all.
Viewing a pdf form created with SAP interactive Forms offline method, the data in the dropdown list field are empty.
The data in the dropdown list field are generated by xml file produced by an abap report.
The problem occurs opening the form with Adobe Reader 8.1 or higher. Using Adobe Reader release 7.0.9 everything is ok.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thanks in advanced.
Best Regards.
Moreno

Hi Otto,
the only release of Adobe Reader that work is 7.0.9. Release 8.1 and 9 have the same problem where the data in the dropdown list field are empty.
At the end of the trace file in Adobe Reader 9.0.3 I find this error message:
"Invalid version: The current version of the XFA template model exceeds the capability of Acrobat / Adobe Reader 7.0.5."
The form has been created using Adobe Lifecycle Design 7.1.
Any idea?
Thanks

Adding dropdown list in an Infotype

Hi ABAP HR Gurus,

Best regards.

Hi,
i have use this steps.
To create authorization fields, choose Tools --> ABAP Workbench --> Development --> Other tools --> Authorization objects ® Fields.
To create a authorization field:
1. Choose Create authorization field.
2. On the next screen, enter the name of the field. Field names must be unique and must begin with the letter Y or Z.
3. Assign a data element from the ABAP Dictionary to the field.
4. If desired, enter a check table for the possible entries. For more information about check tables.
For more information about AUTHORITY-CHECK, see the keyword documentation of the ABAP Editor.
You can often use the fields defined by SAP in your own authorization objects. If you create a new authorization object, you do not need to define your own fields. For example, you can use the SAP field ACTVT in your own authorization objects to represent a wide variety of actions in the system.
Assigning an Authorization Object to an Object Class
Each authorization object must be assigned to an object class when it is created.
Choose Tools --> ABAP Workbench --> Development --> Other tools -->
Authorization objects --> Objects.
You can also create authorization objects in the Object Navigator (SE80).
The system displays a list of existing object classes.
Object classes are organized according to the components of the system.
Before you can create a new object, you must define the object class for the component in which you are working. The objects are not overwritten when you install new releases.
You can also define your own object classes. If you do so, select class names that begin with Y or Z to avoid conflicts with SAP names.
Enter a unique object name and the fields that belong to the object. Object names must begin with the letter Y or Z in accordance with the naming convention for customer-specific objects.
You can enter up to ten authorization fields in an object definition. You must also enter a description of the object and create documentation for it.
Ensure that the object definition matches the AUTHORITY-CHECK calls that refer to the object.
Do not change or delete authorization objects defined by SAP. This disables SAP programs that use the objects.
You can regenerate the profile SAP_ALL after creating an authorization object.

Handling Dropdown values in Webdynpro ABAP

Hello All,
i have a Dropdown list in my screen which is having values
SAP
ABAP
WebDynpro.
am able to display these three values on the drop down using a method POPULATE_DROPDOWN.
Code i have used here:
method POPULATE_DROPDOWN .
DATA: it_value_set_reports    TYPE TABLE OF wdr_context_attr_value,
        wa_value_set_reports    TYPE wdr_context_attr_value,
        lr_node_info_reports    TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
    wa_value_set_reports-value = '01'.
    wa_value_set_reports-text = 'SAP'.
    APPEND wa_value_set_reports TO it_value_set_reports.
    wa_value_set_reports-value = '02'.
    wa_value_set_reports-text = 'ABAP'.
    APPEND wa_value_set_reports TO it_value_set_reports.
    wa_value_set_reports-value = '03'.
    wa_value_set_reports-text = 'WebDynpro'.
    APPEND wa_value_set_reports TO it_value_set_reports.
APPEND INITIAL LINE TO it_value_set_reports.
IF NOT it_value_set_reports IS INITIAL.
    lr_node_info_reports = wd_context->get_node_info( ).
    lr_node_info_reports->set_attribute_value_set( name = 'REPORTS'
    value_set = it_value_set_reports ).
ENDIF.
endmethod.
This is working fine.
there is an action ONACTIONDISPLAY is associated with it.
once we select a value from the dropdown the above method triggers. here i have to capture the value which is selected from the dropdown.
Eg: Suppose if i select SAP then in the output it has to display data associated with SAP.
Could anyone suggest how to do that step by step.
Thanks,
Sree.

data: lv_value type < type of REPORTS attribute>.
wd_context->get_attribuet( name = 'REPORTS' value = lv_value ).

Filtering values in a dropdown list box

Hello Team
In the BSP application CRM_IC, we want a drop down list box to be filled based on the entry selected from another dropdown list box. We have all the entries for the second drop down box in ABAP internal table .However, we do not want a server round trip to happend in doing so. Thus we have used the attribute 'Onclientselect' and we are trying to call a java script function call on this event to filter this ABAP internal table . In this function, we would like to fill the contents of the second dropdown list box after reading the contents of the first dropdown list box. Please advice us as to how this can be achieved. Basically, we observed that ABAP server side script is not executed in the java function.
Thanks
Rony

Rony,
I have used the following technique to synchronize the
contents of two drop down list boxes.
<b>Scenario:</b>
The selection in listbox ddlbxSystemEquipNum, which I
will call "A", determines the contents of listbox
ddlbxModuleEquipNum, which I will call "B".
I use a JavaScript array to shadow the ABAP internal
table containing the possible values for listbox B.
When the page is initially displayed, listbox B is
populated from the ABAP internal table.
When a new selection is made in listbox A, I use the
onClientSelect event to call a JavaScript function,
updateModuleList(), to update the contents of listbox B
from the JavaScript shadow array based on the selected
value in listbox A.
<b>Code Excerpts:</b>
<u>Declare the JavaScript shadow array and listbox B update function</u>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
    var moduleArray = new Array();
    function updateModuleList() {
        var selSystem = frmNrg1100.ddlbxSystemEquipNum;
        var selModule = frmNrg1100.ddlbxModuleEquipNum;
        // Get selected system equipment number
        var selected_system =
                selSystem.options[selSystem.selectedIndex].value;
        // Clear module select options
        selModule.options.length = 0;
        // Add module select options for the selected system
        var j = 0;
        for (var k = 0; k < moduleArray.length; k++) {
            if ( (selected_system == moduleArray[k].system) ||
                                     moduleArray[k].system == "") {

Fill Dropdown list in Adobe forms

Hi friends,
           I am using SFP transaction.I have two requirements.
               1. How to fill dropdown list without java script or formcalc.
               2. I have 2 dropdowns .If i select first dropdown,it will be populate another dropdown based on first drop down selection in the same form.
Can you please help me?
Thanks.
Hans

Which technology are you using Web Dynpro Java / ABAP? In both cases you can do the stuff in your backend i.e. the BAPI which you may be calling to dipslay just the material numbers, ask the ABAPer to change it so that it returns "Mat No - Mat Desc" and not just Material No for e.g. 01000000001 - Material 1, 010000002 - Material 2 and so on.
Bind it to the drop-down in your Adobe form and it should display the description in your Interactive form drop-down list only. So you do not need an additional field and trigger seperate events.

SAPWebConsole - dropdown field works in ABAP but does not work on Web

Hi All,
I am writing an RF transaction in ABAP using regular dialog programming. My transaction works fine in the GUI. But it does not work OK when I access the transaction over the web (using IE) via SAPWebConsole.
My issue is that on the SAPGUI I have a dropdown box that is populated with entries and I can choose an entry but on the same transaction on IE I cannot choose any entries in the same field as it does not have a dropdown option.
Am I doing something wrong here in the ABAP? Am I assuming incorrectly that SAPWebConsole can have dropdown lists?
Thanks,
N.
I know that this is stictlynotan ABAP issue but it does have possible overlap.

Hi Niall!
WebSAPConsole has in it's own limitations with regards to Dialog Programming Development, but a much better version than SAPConsole(Text Based).You cannot have drop down on WebSAPConsole on RF Transaction,pl suppress it in you dialog programming, both F1 & F4.Pl look at the Supported Features in the WebSAPConsole USers Guide.
Let me know if you have any additional questions regarding this?
Thanks

Capture item by Dropdown list in Interactive Form

Hi experts,
I have a problem. I hope to get your suggestion ready.
I created a WebDynpro Abap that contains within it an Adobe Interactive Forms.
With the method wddoinit by the component controller I set all values of the fields into interactive forms correctly.
Inside the form there is a dropdown list which is bind to a table, the list of this dropdown list is filled with properly values of the table which is bind.
When I select a value from the list dropdown I can not capture the selected item by the table corresponding of the data.
Carryover below the code I use to recover (unsuccessfully) the values selected by list dropdown:
DATA:
    node_adobe_data   TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
    node_it0002       TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
    node_stato_civile TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
    elem_stato_civile TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
    stru_stato_civile TYPE wd_this->element_stato_civile.
navigate from <CONTEXT> to <ADOBE_DATA> via lead selection
node_adobe_data = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_adobe_data ).
navigate from <ADOBE_DATA> to <IT0002> via lead selection
node_it0002 = node_adobe_data->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_it0002 ).
navigate from <IT0002> to <STATO_CIVILE> via lead selection
node_stato_civile = node_it0002->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_stato_civile ).
get element via lead selection
elem_stato_civile = node_stato_civile->get_lead_selection( ).
get single attribute
elem_stato_civile->get_static_attributes(
    IMPORTING
     static_attributes = stru_stato_civile ).
The problem persist also if I use the method GET_LEAD_SELECTION_INDEX.
The return value always is the first item and not what I selected.
I wait trusting your suggestions to solve the problem.

Hi Davide,
Maybe you can try to keep your own Index parameter (Integer) to keep track of the selected index.
Then use that parameter to select data from your node:
node_stato_civile->get_static_attributes(
    exporting
      index             = wd_this->lv_index
    importing
      static_attributes = stru_stato_civile
Hope this helps.
Regards,
