F4 help for Infotype

I have 10 date types in the infotype 0041. But now the client wants to show only 5 date types in the search help. How to handle this? How to hide the other date types which are not needed.

Hi,
I think u will write select query for taking the values into internal table & diplaying it in the search help.For that limit the select statement upto 5.

Search Help for Infotype Custom Field

Hi,
I have created a search help for a custom field in an infotype. What would be the best way of filtering the help selection based on infotype values such as molga, begda, endda?
Thanks in advance.
/Elvez

Hi Nishanth,
thanks for your reply, perhaps I should clarify my question:
1) I have a custom field in an infotype
2) I have a table containing the search help information
3) I assigned a search help to the custom field
4) I have activated a search help exit
The problem is that the information that I get from the custom field is not sufficient for making the selection. Therefore, I would like to somehow get hold of the addition information, such as BEGDA, ENNDA, MOLGA, to do a proper selection in the search help exit. How can I achieve that?
I read something about function module DYNP_VALUES_READ -would it be possible to call this function module from my search help exit and thereby reach my goal?

Hi,
Many solutions!!!!!!!!.
a) store in a session variable in main page and retrive it in 2nd page.
OR
b)As the button is a normal button pass the values through javascript..
<input type=button onClick="return sendData()">
<script>
function sendData() {
var selectvalue=document.form.selectname.value
var newwindow=window.open(url?selectchoice="+selectvalue+",'','''')
</script> In the 2nd page(new window) use
<%
request.getParameter("selectchoice");
%> Though some syntax errors are there...but it works..

F1 help for customized infotype label

Dear expert,
I have a customized infotype and I would like to add the hep text for each label.
But when I press F1 inside the customized infotype, it always said "No documentation available", but this works fine for the standard infotype.
Could you please let me know how to create the help for it?
Best Regards,
WF

Hi William,
While on the field in PA30, press F1 - Technical information and note down the data element of field -the field should be assigned to a data element-.
Then go to SE11 for that specific data element. Press "documentation" button and create the documentation within text document.
Do not forget to activate the documentation.

Posting HR Text for Infotype 2004

Hello Friends,
I am using RP-EXP-C1-TX to write text for Infotype 2004(Availability) and then updating it using below Routine:
IF sy-subrc = 0.
PERFORM prepare_update(sapfp50p) USING 'V'.
COMMIT WORK and WAIT UP TO 3 SECONDS.
ENDIF.
My issue is that the text is getting updated properly but it is quite intermittent, meaning it posts sometimes and sometimes not. When I run it in debugging mode and execute each statement in PREPARE_UPDATE, it updates the text properly. But when I run it all at once, it updates at its own mood. I assume there is no issue with the code as it creates text many a times.
I have given a WAIT of 3 seconds also after the PREPARE_UPDATE call which has already made it very slow. The fact that through PA61 everything gets updated pretty quickly, makes me worry even more.
Please let me know what should I do or if I am missing something somewhere. Or this can be a system/Database issue? I am afraid if I move this to Production assuming that it is a system issue and it does not work there either.
Any help would be appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks.

Need some help in creating Search Help for standard screen/field

I need some help in adding a search-help to a standard screen-field.
Transaction Code - PP01,
Plan Version - Current Plan (PLVAR = '01'),
Object Type - Position ( OTYPE = 'S'),
Click on Infotype Name - Object ( Infotype 1000) and Create.
I need to add search help to fields Object Abbr (P1000-SHORT) / Object Name (P1000-STEXT).
I want to create one custom table with fields, Position Abb, Position Name, Job. Position Abb should be Primary Key. And when object type is Position (S), I should be able to press F4 for Object Abb/Object Name fields and should return Position Abbr and Position Name.
I specify again, I have to add a new search help to standard screen/field and not to enhance it.
This is HR specific transaction. If someone has done similar thing with some other transation, please let me know.
There is no existing search help for these fields. If sm1 ever tried or has an idea how to add new search help to a standard screen/field.
It's urgent.
Thanks in advace. Suitable answers will be rewarded

Hi Pradeep,
Please have a look into the below site which might be useful
Enhancing a Standard Search Help

A search help exit is a function module for making the input help process described by the search help more flexible than possible with the standard version.
This function module must have the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE. The search help exit may also have further optional parameters (in particular any EXPORTING parameters).
A search help exit is called at certain timepoints in the input help process.
Note: The source text and long documentation of the above-specified function module (including the long documentation about the parameters) contain information about using search help exits.
Function modules are provided in the function library for operations that are frequently executed in search help exits. The names of these function modules begin with the prefix F4UT_. These function modules can either be used directly as search help exits or used within other search help exits. You can find precise instructions for use in the long documentation for the corresponding function module.
During the input help process, a number of timepoints are defined that each define the beginning of an important operation of the input help process.
If the input help process is defined with a search help having a search help exit, this search help exit is called at each of these timepoints. If required, the search help exit can also influence the process and even determine that the process should be continued at a different timepoint.
timepoints
The following timepoints are defined:
1. SELONE
Call before selecting an elementary search help. The possible elementary search helps are already in SHLP_TAB. This timepoint can be used in a search help exit of a collective search help to restrict the selection possibilities for the elementary search helps.
Entries that are deleted from SHLP_TAB in this step are not offered in the elementary search help selection. If there is only one entry remaining in SHLP_TAB, the dialog box for selecting elementary search helps is skipped. You may not change the next timepoint.
The timepoint is not accessed again if another elementary search help is to be selected during the dialog.
2. PRESEL1
After selecting an elementary search help. Table INTERFACE has not yet been copied to table SELOPT at this timepoint in the definition of the search help (type SHLP_DESCR_T). This means that you can still influence the attachment of the search help to the screen here. (Table INTERFACE contains the information about how the search help parameters are related to the screen fields).
3. PRESEL
Before sending the dialog box for restricting values. This timepoint is suitable for predefining the value restriction or for completely suppressing or copying the dialog.
4. SELECT
Before selecting the values. If you do not want the default selection, you should copy this timepoint with a search help exit. DISP should be set as the next timepoint.
5. DISP
Before displaying the hit list. This timepoint is suitable for restricting the values to be displayed, e.g. depending on authorizations.
6. RETURN (usually as return value for the next timepoint)
The RETURN timepoint should be returned as the next step if a single hit was selected in a search help exit.
It can make sense to change the F4 flow at this timepoint if control of the process sequence of the Transaction should depend on the selected value (typical example: setting SET/GET parameters). However, you should note that the process will then depend on whether a value was entered manually or with an input help.
7. RETTOP
You only go to this timepoint if the input help is controlled by a collective search help. It directly follows the timepoint RETURN. The search help exit of the collective search help, however, is called at timepoint RETTOP.
8. EXIT (only for return as next timepoint)
The EXIT timepoint should be returned as the next step if the user had the opportunity to terminate the dialog within the search help exit.
9. CREATE
The CREATE timepoint is only accessed if the user selects the function "Create new values". This function is only available if field CUSTTAB of the control string CALLCONTROL was given a value not equal to SPACE earlier on.
The name of the (customizing) table to be maintained is normally entered there. The next step returned after CREATE should be SELECT so that the newly entered value can be selected and then displayed.
10. APP1, APP2, APP3
If further pushbuttons are introduced in the hit list with function module F4UT_LIST_EXIT, these timepoints are introduced. They are accessed when the user presses the corresponding pushbutton.
Note: If the F4 help is controlled by a collective search help, the search help exit of the collective search help is called at timepoints SELONE and RETTOP. (RETTOP only if the user selects a value.) At all other timepoints the search help exit of the selected elementary search help is called.
If the F4 help is controlled by an elementary search help, timepoint RETTOP is not executed. The search help exit of the elementary search help is called at timepoint SELONE (at the
F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE
This module has been created as an example for the interface and design of Search help exits in Search help.
All the interface parameters defined here are mandatory for a function module to be used as a search help exit, because the calling program does not know which parameters are actually used internally.
A search help exit is called repeatedly in connection with several
events during the F4 process. The relevant step of the process is passed on in the CALLCONTROL step. If the module is intended to perform only a few modifications before the step, CALLCONTROL-STEP should remain unchanged.
However, if the step is performed completely by the module, the following step must be returned in CALLCONTROL-STEP.
The module must react with an immediate EXIT to all steps that it does not know or does not want to handle.
Hope this info will help you.

How to define default subtypes for Infotype 0105 on entry

Hello;
I have spend an entire day trying to look into PA configuration to determin how to make specific Subtype of the 0105 Communication Infotype automatically appear when an HR person is entering in a new employee.
Currently we have the 0001, 0010, and ADP subtypes automatically appear in the Communication Infotype screen when the person is entering in a new employee. I was asked to create three new Subtypes for Infortype 0105 and have these new subtypes automatically appear on the data entry screen for Infotype 0105.
I can not find anywhere in configuration how to do this. I ahve burnt an entire day searching configuration and have about had it with this garbage.
Can someone please point me to specific spot in configuration where these subtypes of and Infotype can be identified as default data entry screens.
I would greatly appreciate any help ... since I am not a HR Configurator ... just a plain old ABAP'er who has lost our configurators.
Scott.

Hi Scott,
To create subtypes follow:
Tcode: SPRO
Path: Personnel Management>Personnel Administration>Communication>Create Communication Types
Half the job is done. Then include those subtypes in your hiring action. To do so:
Tcode: SPRO
Path: Personnel Management>Personnel Administration>Customizing Procedures>Actions>Define infogroups>Info group
Select your hiring infogroup and create new entries with operation INS for 105 and the three subtypes.
You are all set!
Cheers,
Donnie

Hello,
Male or female in 0002 is determined the field ANRED. (Mr. Ms.) based on this only the GESCH(Gender key is determined).
So if a employee is a male fill ANRED with 1 else with 2.

- Did you lock the personal number records before calling (try BAPI_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE)
- Did you analyze the dump, what was the error message, etc. (too many errors are possible from overlap of intervals with another record to wrong values in call...)
- look at [Note 1381529 - Inconsistency while updating IT0584 without standard Tcodes|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1381529]
- usually in those case the programmer check setting dialog mode to '2'
