Extra fields in search help window in Record working time EHP5

Hi Experts,
Can you please let me know how to add additional fields/select options in search help window for Record Working Time ?
My system is EHP5 NW 7.02
I have added the custom search help for the respective filed in table " TCATS_SHLP_ITS".
I can see this table is having entry for only 4 selection options and 6 value fields for search help display.
But in my custom search help programme is having 8 select options(for advance search) and 10 display fields on the search window. It's working from CAT2 transaction but when I am running through webdynpro timesheet, I can only get 4 select options and 6 value fields.
Please let me know how to make the other fields available.
Thanks in advance.
Sonia

Hi Siddharth,
Thanks for your response. In that modify possible entries screen (Details view) I can see the search help is only having 4 select options and 6 display fields.
So as per my understanding max 6 display fields/4 select options can only be displayed on search window.
My requirement is to display more fields on search help OVS window.
Can you please suggest.
Thanks ,
Sonia

Custom Search help in Record Working Time

Hi,
We have a requirement to add a custom field on RECORD Working Time ( ESS). This field has been added and custom search help is assigned to the data element of the field. The values in the F4 help should vary based on employees department.
The related code for this requirement is written in the serach help exit. The F4 help is working as expected from backend ( ECC) but not in Portal (ESS).
I have added the custom field in TCATS_SHLP_ITS. After maintaining this table all the values in F4 help are displaying , whereas it should only display the values under employees department in Record Working time.
I understand the class cl_xss_cat_value_help_general is responsible for the search help in ESS is there any user exit or enhancement available for this class in order to control the serach values on ESS.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Pradeep

note that search help of CAT2 and record working time are different!
these are teh steps
please modify the following in the table TCATS_SHLP_ITS as follows:
1. Execute the T-Code SM31
2. Enter the table name TCATS_SHLP_ITS.
or check the class
CL_XSS_CAT_VALUE_HELP_GENERAL
or check
CL_XSS_CAT_VALUE_HELP*
take an example from Sap note 914125

How to replace a field's search help of DDIC in FPM feeder class?

Hi All,
I want to replace a field's search help in DDIC structure, for an example, in structure HCMT_BSP_PA_XX_R0009, the field BANKL(Bank Keys) has a search help named 'H_BANKL', I want to replace this search help with other one such as 'H_BANKEY' in the FPM feeder class CL_HRESS_PER_DETAIL, I redefined such method:
method if_fpm_guibb_form~get_definition.
field-symbols: <fs_field_description> like line of et_field_description.
call method super->if_fpm_guibb_form~get_definition
importing
es_message = es_message
eo_field_catalog = eo_field_catalog
et_field_description = et_field_description
et_action_definition = et_action_definition
et_special_groups = et_special_groups
ev_additional_error_info = ev_additional_error_info.
read table et_field_description assigning <fs_field_description> with key name = 'BANKL'.
set search help name of field 'bank key'
if <fs_field_description> is assigned.
<fs_field_description>-ddic_shlp_name = 'H_BANKEY'
endif.
endmethod.
I test it and found the search help window was replaced indeed, but all the value of import/export parameters in the new search help was lost, it means, the value of import paramer BANKS(Bank country) and the export parameter BANKA(bank name) were lost. Only the value of BANKL itself can be returned by the new search help window. Can you give me some suggestions about how to maintain the link( value exchange) between structure HCMT_BSP_PA_XX_R0009 and dynamically defined search help 'H_BANKEY' in FPM feeder class?
I tried to use sap memory ID but it doesn't works well.

This question was answered at [Webdynpro Forum|how to replace a field's search help of DDIC in FPM feeder class?;:
That is because for the import and export of DDIC Search help values to work in WDA, not in FPM layer.Feeder Class can do nothing about it.

How to get results of search help window?

Hi, experts,
I have a question here.
For a field vendor id there is pre-defined search help, with which the detailed information of vendor inclusive the vendor id will be returned. But it will only fill this vendor id field. other information in the result like vendor name will be lost. I still need this information for other fields. And I hope to get other fields filled with the info in the results.
How can I get the complete info in the result delivered by search help window?
Can anybody help?
Best regards,
Fan

In short you need to fill the other fields on the screen using the same search help.
for that read this thread, Thomas nicely explained the same with an example

How to delete a field from search help which is delivered

hi
I got a requirement to delete a field from search help which is delivered long back
Regards
krishna

Hi
Whether it exists in DEV system or not?
Take the name of that Search Help from PRD/Quality(if it is not there in DEV system) and modify/change it by removing that field from the search help in DEV system and create a Transport request and transport the same request to Quality/PRD systems
Now the New changes (in which the field was removed) will be over written on the old search help in the PRD system, since it is the same Name (search help)

Adding new field in search help result view

Dear Experts,
I want to include one more field in search help result. The field shoud give description.
How can i do this in UI result view?
If I try to add attribute in result view, the result view is of type table, and it does not allow us to add value node. It will allow us to add model attribute. If I add attribute in search help resut table view then will i be able to see it in table form.
Thanks and regards
Pankaj Kumar

Hi Pankaj,
Its not that difficult.
There are two ways
1. You can enhance your Result BOL object through EEWB and append your z-field to std. BOL result object. This then appears automatically for your result context node and then you can pull it to the view in config tool.
2. Directly go to your context node class (CN00 , CN01 etc ) , now copy method GET_S_XYZ , paste it and rename as GET_yourfieldname. Similarly copy SET_S_XYZ, GET_M_XYZ and GET_I_XYZ and paste and rename. Once activated. Quit the component browser completely. Open again using bsp_wd_cmpwb. open you view and then your node. You can find you new attribut present as struct.YourField.
You can then copy code from available setter-getter methods for this attribute. You must handle setter getter by urself in this case. In may std. nodes, this is done for description field. I have personally done this for product descripton field.
if you dont want the field to be part of structure ( i.e. as struct.Yourfield ) then you can also copy paste GET_XYZ, SET_XYZ methods. your filed then do not appear as Struct.YourField but it just appears as YourField name under context node.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks & Regards.
You can check PRODUCTDESCRIPTION attribute of BTAdminI node of BT115QIT_SLSQ/Items view of BT115QIT_SLSQ component. They have added it the same way as i described above. You see the GET_ method to see how they are retrieving product description. In my object, i wrote direct query to Comm_prshtext table to retriev short_text by passing product guid and then assigen it to value variable of Get method.

F4 help in selection fields of search help

Hi all,
I've created a elementary search help for sold to party and appended it to collective search help.
Now my problem is i need F4 help in one of the selection fields of search help.
How can i get it.
I m using selection method where ive created a view which fetches all data..
Thanks in advance
Palak

Hi,
1)Double click on the dataelement of your field on which you want f4 help then in the first tab itself you will find two option one for attaching the search help you have created(Elementry/ Collective) and second option is the parameter ID.
You have to look for the first option to attach the search help.
2) You can create f4 help for your Parameter or Selection screen by using the event.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST for PARA/Selection screen.
Further you can use the FM mentioned above F4_INT.....
Hope it is clear now.

Record working Time Activity search

Hi All,
In Record working time, when we click on Oper./Act. column for input, when we see in F4 list, it will open Advance Search window.
In this advance search there are three fields for searching. Rec.Order, Network, Oper./Act.
When we enter Network and click on Go, it will list all the activities for that Network.
Same as, if we specify Network and Oper./Act and click on Go, it willl show the corresponding one.
Remembering ID's of Oper./Act. is difficult to users.
Now what i am trying to do is, if we provide option to search based on Oper./Act. description it will be easy to users.
Is there any way to activate search option based on Oper./Act.
Regards,
Shankar.

Hi Siddarth,
Thanks for your vlauble inputs, as per your inputs you have given for Activity Type column.
But my requirement is for Oper./Act. column. When you press F4 here it will show three fields in Advanced Search window.
In Advanced Search window
1) Rec.Order.
2) Network.
3) Oper./Act:
Now in this Oper./Act search field we have to enter the code for seraching. But remembering the code is difficult to users. Since for one Network there are so many Oper./Act.
so, if we give Oper./Act description with wild characters for Oper./Act searching corresponding Oper./Act code has to display in results.
I check it in back end, this field is CATSD-VORNR.
Regards,
Shankar Reddy Ch.

Record working time in ESS window collapsed

Dear all,
after we implemented EHP6 in our environment we have a strange issue with the Record working time window in ESS portal.
When a user log in to the portal and go the Record working time the record working time window initial state is collapsed. He need to expand the window manually (see the screenshot).
Does anyone of you have / had same issue? Are you aware of any SAP notes we can consider to solve the issue?
Everything is standard , nothing customized.
Thank you
Vladimir

This is because end users do personalization in that page. In this case when they logon next time always it will display the based on his personalization in previous logon.
You can clear all personalization's for users in System Administration tab
Clear all personalization for users from System Administration in portal.
System Administration -> Support
-> PCD Tools
-> Personalization Data Cleanup
Here Remove personalization data of all users for all portal objects or specific to user / specific to portal object

Restricting F4 help in OT Compensation type in ESS in Record Working time

Hi all
In ESS, In the Record Working Time, in Overtime Compensation type , I want to restrict the F4 help during display based on the Payscale group.
For eg If the User EMP1 has the Payscale group 11, I should show the OT compensation f4 help as 1, 2, 3 4.
     If the user is EMP2, has the Payscale group 12 ,, I should show the OT compensation f4 help as 1, 2.
Where I should write code to control this ?
Is there any BADI /user exit for this PBO action?

There is no customisation available, you need to go for modification here
ie CLASS CL_XSS_CAT_RFC_COMMAND_TOOLS method BUILD_F4_HELP
SAPLHRXSS_CAT_WEBDYNP          / LHRXSS_CAT_WEBDYNPU02
FUNCTION                       / HRXSS_CAT_WD_F4_AWART

CATT Record Working Times ESS

Hi everyone,
What I need to know is if there is any possibility to add by customizing without any development new fields in the Record Working Times Table. The fields I want are from(hours) / to (hours) for each work day in the weekly view, like it is displayed in the SAP GUI transactions. The hours are available in the daily view and also in the SAP GUI for the weekly view, so I hope its just customizing but I would like to know if anyone has done this as we need our employees to enter time in and time out. Any help as soon as possible will be greatly rewarded...

In the old ITS transaction CATW you cloud display the hours in the weekly view, but the window got so wide that you lost overview. A lot of customers did complain about that. Therefore SAP developed the weekly overview and the daily detailed view, which is a lot better that the old ITS CATW.
Our time-people raised the question, but SAP did reply that it is not possible to show hours in the weekly view, and they has no intension of developing this function.
