Hi,
In program SAPLMGD1 look for screen 2001. You can look for from here.
The other way you can create a program and put the field old mat. number here and match this field with your search help. Than with tcode OMT3B you can put this program to materal master basic data / general data 1 tab.
I hope this will help you.

Create search helps for fields of custom tables

Hi,
Could any one please provide me the step by step process to create search helps for fields in custom tables?
Thanks in advance,
Nobin.

Hello Nobin
There is basically no difference between a search help for standard vs. customer tables.
An important choise is the selection method for your search help:
Either you use your custom table, a view or a search help user-exit if you need to implement very specific requirements.
Assuming that you can use your DB table as selection method the further implementation of the search help is quite straightforward:
(1) Define the parameters you would like to have a selection criteria (SPos = SPos) and which should appear on the result list (= LPos).
(2) Define the parameters that can be used as input for the selection (flag IMP) and are returned by the search help (flag EXP)

How to set a default value in MARA field 'Old material number'

Hello everyone,
I have a requirement to fill automatically the field MARA-BISMT (Old material number), when creating a new material (using for example MM01). What is the best way to do it?
My idea is to have somewhere a field exit (?) with some ABAP lines to concatenate the material type code with part of the material number, and show the field already filled when in 'Basic data 1' screen.
Does anyone have an idea? Or an example in the system with a similar functionality already implemented?
Thanks

How to activate the new fields on material master(MM01/MM02/MM03) for existing Materials

Hi,
We have a requirement to add some custom fields as a new tab in additional data option(Descriptions, Unit of measure, etc.) in Basic data of Material master (MM01/MM02/MM03). I have successfully added and these custom fields and they are not part of standard(MARA, MARC) but a custom table and the updates are also done in custom table.
For new materials, I can see the new tab in additional data screens of basic data view and I could successfully create/change/display using MM01/MM02/MM03. However I cannot see the new tab/fields for existing materials in the system in all 3 tcodes (MM01/MM02/MM03). This is not a main view in material master so that I can extend it by MM01.
Is there any setting or mass generation program I have top perform so that I can see and maintain these new fields for existing materials. Appreciate any leads or help on this.
Thanks,
Harry

Hello Harry,
Goto t.code SPRO ---> Display IMG ---> Logistics - General --> Material master --> Configuring the material master --> Create program for customized screens
Use the above path and create the screen and assign it to the sequence using the below link as reference.

How to add search help for field in ALV object

Hello,
In a program, we use ALV object ( container) to create a liste like : field1, field2 .. but when display we do not have search help for this . Could you please help me how to add match code in this case for field 1 and field2, We use set_table_for_first_display
Thanks,

Hi,
when you define your field catalogue you can create data elements with search help in se11 and use them for field 1 and field 2.
But maybe it is enough to use data elements belonging to a domain with a value help and to set field F$AVAILABL in the field catalogue or to fill the name of the field CHECKTABLE.

Search help for field in SM30

Hi Experts,
This is a Z table with first field as GROUP and second field as KEY.
User can select values for first field using a search help. It has three possibel entries
1. Purchasing Org
2. Region
3. Coutnry
In second field the user has to enetr value based on selection in first field, for eg. if 1 is chosen in 1st field user will enter name of a purchasing organisation.
Can we dispay a search help for second field based on the selection in first field?
Like if 1 is selected in 1st field second field should display search help for Purchasing Org
if 2 is selected in 1st field second field should display search help for Region....in SM30?
How can we achieve this?
Thank you,
Anubhav

Hi Anubhav,
1.Go to the table maintenance generator screen from SE11 (Utilities -> Table Maintenance Generator).
2. In the Table maintenance generator screen , navigate to Environment -> Modifications -> Maintenance Screens
3. Select and Edit the screen where you need this new search help
4. Create a Process on Value Request module for your second field at the end of the screen flow logic after MODULE LISTE_AFTER_LOOP.
5. In the POV module, use funcntion DYNP_VALUES_READ to read the value of field 1 on the screen
6. Fill your own table with the values for field 2 based on field 1 and display selection using the function F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST
Hope this helps.

Search help for fields in custom table..

hi,
in my custom table i have two fields - table name and field name. when user selects table name as VBAP , for field names i need all the fields in VBAP to be displayed and for that I set the check table as DD03L and I am able to see all the fields. But i am not able to see the description of the fields rather seeing field name , other key fields of DD03L.
How do i get to display something like
field name - description - length (length of the field as defined in DDIC)
If search help will help then can u pl tell me how to create one ? or any standard can be used ?
thanks

Yes, you need to create search help and assign it to the field 'field name'
Please search SDN for how to create search help. There are 100's of threads with this
By the way the texts can be found in table DD03T for tables as well as for fields

F4 help for fields in maintenance view resp. generated maintenance screen

Hello,
Im new to ABAP and I have to deal with the following requirement:
I have a maintenance view V1 what from a maintenance screen was generated automatically by the maintenance screen generator.
Now I have to add a search help for one field F1 of the maintenance screen. The values for the search help of F1 depend on a specific value of a second field F2 of the maintenance screen. So I need value of F2 as import parameter for f4-help. F1 and F2 come from different tables.
As Im new to ABAP I have several questions or thoughts:
- Im not able to easily add a search help to F1 because Im using the maintenance view V1 and thats why it is not possible to assign the import parameter F2 to the search help right?
- In general, its not that easy to add search help to views than tables or structures - why?
- Im not able to just modify the generated objects because further automatic generation of the maintenance screen will delete it right?
- The generated function module provides user includes to add user specific coding. Is there any chance to add a f4-help to field F1 and assign value of F2 to that search help as import parameter with coding in user include?
- any other ideas? I did not expect this topic to be so complicated as the requirement to change f4-help in a maintenance view resp. screen isn't very special.
can anyone help me?
Thank You!
Regards
Fabian

Hi Fabian,
Phew! Thats quite a few questions in one... I'll try to answer them to best of my knowledge..
You can definitely have an external Search Help for a field of a Maintenance View, by calling it directly in the Screen Action Flow, using a PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST (like PAI or PBO). While defining such custom code on a generated screen, always make sure you do not write the coding inside the generated includes (SVIM* or <FUGR>TOP, <FUGR>DAT, etc..). Define new includes, or use those which are not generated by View Maintenance. This way, even if the dialogue is regenerated, your custom code will not vanish.
This will answer your questions 1 and 2 generally, and your question 3 also.
A Maintenance View, is something where values are read and populated purely at run-time. It does not have an Entry Help or such options, as it depends on the underlying tables. I hope this further helps with questions 1 and 2.
Coming to your question 4 and 5, which form the main question - pre-filling value of F2 while calling search-help for F1 - yes, it is possible. On the view maintenance screen, there are standard structure variables (like EXTRACT TOTAL etc), which will give you the field values of the current record. But, it can no way assure that when you call the help for F1, the field F2 is already filled!
For this, I can suggest that you programmatically implement a check to see if F2 value is filled, and read if it is. Or, if it is not filled, maybe you can shoot a Pop-up for F2, take the value at run-time, find help for F1 and get value, and also fill the F2 value (from your implementation) into the currect screen F2 value! (Phew...it is complex...)
But am sorry, there is no other way, wherein you can gaurentee that F2 value is pre-filled always, when you can help for F1. (You could try making F2 as obligatory on screen, but it still doesnt necessarily solve this purpose..!).
Hope it helps. Get back to me by e-mail if you need more help, or simple post a reply.

Rekha

Search help for field RESB-VORNR

Hello all,
I am using RESB-VORNR in the selection screen of one of my report. I need a search help on this field. Could anyone let me know the matchcode for this field.
Thanks!

Unfortunately, the operations is not a field which is tied to check tables or domain values. This is actually a field, which you can pretty much enter anything you want. That said, there will be not F4 help for it. So you must build it yourself. Depending on your company, this may work out for you or it may not. For example, at my company, engineering has developed standards which are adhered to which dictates that operation numbers are always a certain few and follow a sequence. So you could build your F4 help on the fly and tie this to the field on your selection screen. Or you could base the F4 help off of a group/ group counter which is entered by the user.    Below is an example of how you could build it on the fly.
report zrich_0001 .
data: begin of ivornr occurs 0,
       vornr type resb-vornr
      end of ivornr.
parameters: p_vornr type resb-vornr.
initialization.
ivornr-vornr = '0010'. append ivornr.
ivornr-vornr = '0020'. append ivornr.
ivornr-vornr = '0030'. append ivornr.
ivornr-vornr = '0040'. append ivornr.
ivornr-vornr = '0050'. append ivornr.
at selection-screen on value-request for p_vornr.
call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
       exporting
            retfield    = 'VORNR'
            dynprofield = 'P_VORNR
            dynpprog    = sy-cprog
            dynpnr      = sy-dynnr
            value_org   = 'S'
       tables
            value_tab   = ivornr.

Search help for field in Standard Transaction

Hi Experts,
      We have a requirement to have an F4 search help for a standard field .
( Plant, werks, Tx AS01 ). This field is not associated with any standard search help, but it throws F4 values programmatically .
   We need to associate a standard search help ( BETR_BUKRS ) with this Plant field.
1. How to proceed abt it ( As it is a part of module program , can we straight away associate with the search help in the property ) ,it is a field of standard Transaction .
2. If we include search help above, what will happen to the already existing F4 functionality ? Can we have both in tabs ?
   Thanks a lot,
~Abap Lover

Hi Seshatal,
     Thanks for the input, but this field does NOT have any ON VALUE REQUEST event associated with it ....
   as soon as F4 is hit, it goes to Function help_start ,so I don't think we can make any changes here as it is standard .
   I think including a standard search help will help....how to achieve this ?
Thanks,

Change search help for field 'customer' in Trade Promotion

Hello everyone,
I would like to change the search help for the customer field (CRM_MKTPL_TRADE-CUSTOMER_ID search help: CRM_MKTPL_CAMPAIGN_CUST_ID) to one of my own.
How can I do this?
I would also like to change the search help for each partner function in the partner-tab. Is this the same procedure as above?
Regards,
Friederike

Hi Friederike,
If I have understood your question correctly then here is the answer.
You can change the search help for the required filed. All you have to do is: Go to the table CRM_MKTPL_TRADE. Then look for the field CUSTOMER_ID. Change only the description of the field. then you can search by the description whenever you require.
But the procedure will not be same if you want to change the search help for partner functions. In this case you have to change the descriptionof these partner functions in the transaction BP.
But why do you require it, because the partner functions will be determined automatically.
Hope it helps.

Ankur

Display Help for Field not referred through Data Elements in ALV

Hi,
I am working on a report program where the output is in ALV_LIST display format.The internal table used to define the field catalog contains fields that are not declared using Data elements.For these fields, when i press F1 from the output, the message I receive is 'No Document Available'.Can someone tell me how I can attach a help document to these fields without creating a new data element for each of these fields....
For eg : My internal table that forms the field catalog is
Data : Begin of i_itab occurs 0,
         matnr like mara-matnr,
         Name(50),
         end of i_itab.
When this table is displayed in ALV, if F1 is pressed on the field matnr the corresponding dictionary help pops out.But since the field Name has no help document attached to it, i cannot view any help for this..Kindly tell me how i can attach my own help document to this field.
Thanks,
Swathi

Hi,
This issue was solved using the followiing steps.
1. There is a parameter 'IT_EVENT_EXIT 'in the FM REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY or REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY.
2.Set the value of the field of this paramter as
EXIT-UCOMM= '&ELP' " F1
EXIT-BEFORE = 'X'
This will make the control go directly to the user command functio written inside the program rather than the standard SAP define duser command....
3. Inside the perform -usercommand in the ALV program use the FM HELP_DOCULINES_SHOW to show the appropriate help document
This method may be used to display help text for those fields/columns in the ALV which are not referred to the fields/data elements in the data dictionary tabel
