Help View for Search Help

Dear Experts,
I have successfully created a Help View (ZKEYHELP) using SE11 and activated it. Then when I try create a Search Help using SE11 again and specify the Selection Method as (ZKEYHELP) it prompts me an error when activating saying: "View ZKEYHELP is of type C and therefore not suitable as selection method".
The Delivery Class of the Help View ZKEYHELP I created is C - Customizing table, maintenance only by cust.
Is there any way to solve this problem. Thanks.
Best Regards.

*Creating Elementary Search Helps *
Procedure
In the initial screen of the ABAP Dictionary, select object class Search help, enter the name of the search help and choose Create.
A dialog box appears in which you must select the type of search help.
Select Elementary search help and choose .
The maintenance screen for elementary search helps appears.
Enter an explanatory text in the field Short text.
You can for example find the search help at a later time using this short text.
In the Definition tab page enter the selection method of the search help.
You can enter the name of a table or a view (database view, projection view or help view) here. If you enter a table that has a text table, the name of the text table is automatically entered in the corresponding field.
Using the input help (F4 help), select fields of the selection method as parameter in the Search help parameter area. Select the fields that should be used in the dialog box for value selection or in the hit list.
If the selection method is a table that has a text table, both the fields of the table and the fields of the text table are offered in the input help.
The data element of the parameter is automatically copied from the selection method. The data element defines the output attributes and the F1 help of the parameter in the hit list and in the dialog box for value selection.
You can assign the parameter another data element. To do so, select the Mod flag. The Data element field is now ready for input. Then select a data element with the input help (F4 help). Only data elements whose data type, length and number of decimal places is the same as those of the previous data element can be assigned.
This removes the link between the data element of the search help parameter and the data element of the selection method field having the same name. If you cancel the Mod flag, the data element of the assigned table field is used again.
Define the attributes of the search help parameters.
Select the IMP flag if it is an import parameter. Select the EXP flag if it is an export parameter.
You can define the dialog for the input help with the fields LPos, SPos and SDis. Enter the parameter position in the hit list in LPos. If you enter nothing or the value 0 here, the parameter is not displayed in the hit list.
Enter the parameter position in the dialog box for value selection in SPos. If you enter nothing or the value 0 here, the parameter is not displayed in the dialog box for value selection.
Set the SDis flag if the parameter should be a pure display field in the dialog box for value selection. The user is thus informed that the contents of the parameter restrict the value, but he cannot change this restriction. This makes sense for example when the parameter is an import parameter or if it has a default value.
You can assign the parameter a default value in the Default value field.
Select the dialog type of the search help.
The dialog type defines how the hit list is displayed in the input help.
Save your entries.
A dialog box appears in which you have to assign the search help a development class.
Choose .
Do not forget to link the search help to a screen field. The search help attachment is not part of the search help definition; it is part of the object definition to which the search help is attached.
Result
The search help is activated. You can find information about the activation flow in the activation log, which you can display with Utilities ® Activation log. If errors occurred during activation, the activation log is automatically displayed.
Other Options
Assign a hot key: If the search help is to be accessed with a hot key, you must enter a one-place ID in the Hot key field. All the elementary search helps contained in a collective search help should have different short cuts.
Assign a search help exit: In exceptions, you might have to change the standard flow defined by the search help with a search help exit. In this case enter the name of the search help exit in the corresponding field.
Test the search help: You can test the flow of an input help defined by the elementary search help with . A dialog box appears in which you can simulate the behavior of the search help under different conditions. You can obtain information about the options provided in this window with

Help Viewer Infinite Searches

When you search for something in Help Viewer for which there is apparently no relevant help topic, the program just keeps on searching, and searching, and searching, and searching, forever and ever and ever. It never just stops and gives you a logical response like "no topic found". This is really a classic of poor design which has persisted in every incarnation of OSX.
Is there some reason why Apple has never fixed this, or is the project manager for this bit of code some sort of sadist????

Wet Baloney,

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

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.

Field values are repeating for search help.

Hello Friends.
I have a problem. When I create a search help for a field the identical field values are repeating. What should I do to trigger only the first time.
for example:
<u>Field-name</u>-                        <u>field-value</u>
Supplier Nr ---                                 Commodity
5001 -
                                           casting
5002 -
                                           casting
5003 -
                                           casting
So when I create the search help for commodity it is showing 'casting' 3 times in a pop-up window. It should not repeat. Can you please give me the solution what should I do?

Hierarchy of search helps
Standard Search Help
The input help (F4 help) is a standard function of the R/3 System. It permits the user to display a list of possible values for a screen field. A value can be directly copied to an input field by list selection.
The fields having an input help are shown in the R/3 System by the input help key to the right of the field. This key appears as soon as the cursor is positioned on the corresponding screen field. The help can be started either by clicking on this screen element or with function key F4.
If the number of possible entries for a field is very large, you can limit the set of displayed values by entering further restrictions.
Further meaningful information about the displayed values is included in the display of possible entries, especially if the field requires that a formal key be entered.
TYPES OF SEARCH HELPS
Elementary search helps
Describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
Collective search help
Combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
Search Help Interface
Search help interface determines how the exchange of values between the screen template and the selection method is implemented.
The search help interface defines the context data that can be used in the input help and the data that can be returned to the input mask. Analogously to the interface of a function module, the search help interface comprises interface parameters.
When you define an interface parameter of a search help, you must also define whether it should be used to copy data to the input help (IMPORT parameter) or whether it should be used to return data from the input help (EXPORT parameter). A parameter of a search help can also have both attributes at the same time.
The location from which the IMPORT parameters of a search help get their values and the screen fields in which the contents of the EXPORT parameters of the search help are returned are defined in the search help attachment. The search help itself should always be attached to an EXPORT parameter of the search help. If this parameter is also the IMPORT parameter, its contents are only used in the input help if it is a search string (that is, if it contains a ´*´ or a ´+´).
You must define the parameter types of a search help. You can do this by assigning them data elements.
Value Transport for Input Helps
NOTE:In the above example, screen fields A, B and C are linked with parameters of the search help. As a result, values can only be transported between the screen and the search help for these three fields. Existing contents of screen fields A and B can be used for selecting the hit list since they are linked with an import parameter of the search help. The values of parameters A and C can be returned to the screen from the hit list since these parameters are declared as export parameters of the search help.
Description of dialog behavior
A hit list might contain plentiful number of entries. A
dialog provides the user with an option to restrict the
entries displayed on the hit list.
In an input help process, the set of possible entries is presented in the dialog box as a list for displaying the hit list. The user selects the required value from this list by double clicking. Since the possible entries are often formal keys, you must be able to display further explanatory information about the possible entries in the list.
If the set of possible entries is very large, the user should be able to define additional conditions for the attributes of the selected entry. Restricting the set of data in this way both increases the clarity of the list and reduces the system load. Additional conditions can be entered in a further dialog window, the dialog box for restricting values.
Specifying the dialog type of a search help defines whether the dialog box for restricting values should be offered and if so under what conditions.
The attributes in the dialog box for displaying the hit list or in the dialog box for restricting values must be defined as internal parameters of the search help. An internal parameter can also be used in only one of the two dialog boxes. It can also belong to the search help interface.
The internal parameter types are also defined with data elements. These data elements define how the parameters are displayed in the two dialog boxes.

Set Parameter ID Value for Search-Help S_MAT1

Hi Experts,
How can I set the parameter id value of Sales Organization (VKO) as default to a user that will also appear on search-help S_MAT1 (material search-help)?
I have already set the Parameter default in SU3/SU03, used tcde SU56 and relogged-in but still not defaulting to a specific VKO in the Material Search-Help Field.
Thanks a lot for your help!

Dear,
not 100% the same question. Is it also possible to exclude specific values for specific users in the standard search help? Is that possible?
Or other / second question is it possibel in the S_MAT1 to exclude values?
I only know how to include / select on a value but there's nothing mentioned how to exclude values or how to do a multiple selection. Is that possible?
(Out of standard SAP desc.)
a) Constants enclosed in apostrophes ('). The constant must be specified in internal representation for parameters whose data type has an editing mask (e.g. date and time). For example the date 01.03.1998 must be defined as '19980301'.
Many thanks,
Michael

How to add the custom help exit to search help in SE11

Hi All,
I am trying to add the ZF4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE to search help exit in SE11 for search help LART . But system is asking for the access key.
Is there any way we can achieve this with out using access key?
Please suggest me.
Regards
Subhaskar

Hi,
To add a Search help exit goto SE11 -> in Search help option enter 'LART' -> click on display.
once you have entered in you will have to click on change button. This will give on information message first, then it will ask if you have to maintain in the original language itself(only if you have logged in with any language other than DE). You can select your option in that then you will be able to view the same in EDIT mode. now you can go ahead and add your search help exit.
Hope it helps.
Thanks & Regards,
Praveenkumar T.

Help required on search help

In my requirement I have a table for which a search help needs to be designed. The product hierarchy has 8 levels. To identify the correct product hierarchy, search help will be used by the user to select the level of product hierarchy and to navigate to next level of product hierarchy.
Please give me some idea to design this.

Hi,
You have to use collective search help.
A collective search help describes an input help process in which the
user can choose one of several alternative search paths. Each
alternative search path corresponds to an elementary search help, i.e. a
collective search help contains several elementary search helps.
Both elementary search helps and other collective search helps can be
included in a collective search help. if a collective search help
contains other collective search helps, they are resolved down to the
level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.
Like an elementary search help, a collective search help has an
interface of import and export parameters. The data is exchanged between
the screen template and the parameters of the elementary search helps
contained in it using this interface. The parameters of the search helps
included in a collective search help must be assigned to the parameters
of the collective search help.
During the input help process, the collective search help only controls
the user's selection of the required search path. The rest of the dialog
and data collection is controlled by the selected elementary search
help. If selection of the required elementary search help should be made
flexible (e.g. with context-specific definition of the set of available
search paths), the collective search help must be assigned a search help
exit.
Hope now you can design accordingly and i think this helps you.
Regards,
Rama Chary.Pammi.

Problem in search help view for Contact (BP_CONT_SEARCH)

Hi,
I am trying to create service order. There I have 2 fields ... Sold-to-Party and Contact.
when I say F4 for Contact it is displaying the next screen with 4 parameters. There I have Account ID paramater.
In the CRM 6.0, the Account ID is being populated with Sold-to-Party ID, by default.
But, Now I am working in CRM 7.0. The Account id is not defaulting to Sold-to-Party ID.
And I observed that in CRM 6.0, all the fields on Serch help view are binded to SEARCH->VALUE1 attribute.
But, In CRM 7.0, this is not done. I donno whthr it might be the reason..or som thing else.
Please let me know, for defaulting this value, what we need to.

F4 help for Elementary Search Help in collective Search help

Hi Gurus,
I have created an elementary search help 'ZXXX' with fields Partner , KDGRP and KTEXT .For this searh help, I have created a database view for the selection method with tables BUT000 , KNVV and T151.Finally, added this elemenatry search help'ZXXX' to collective searh help BUPA.
When I press f4 on BP , I could very well see the newly created seach help 'ZXXX' in transaction BP.However, the F4 on field KDGRP is missing. I thought the SAP internally determines F4 for KDGRP based on the check table T151 in domain KDGRP but it is not happening. I did try to infulence the values in shlp-interface and shlp-fielddescr using search help exit but it does not work.
Could you help me how do I acheive the F4 help on field KDGRP which is used in an elementary search help and further more in collective search help BUPA on transaction BP.

There might be some reasons for not getting the F4 value. One reason could be the complete AUTHORISATION for shopadmin given to the user.
Please check the SHOPADMIN authorisations of the user.
Hope this will be helpful

Help On Currency and Quantity Fields:
Whenever you have to maintain fields for currencies and quantites u need to refer them to currency key and quantity key which also have to be present in the table.
If suppose you are creating a table for Employee. And suppose that fields would be like :
EMPID -
employee id
EMPNAME
employee name
DEPARTMENT --- department
SALARY -- salary ( Data Type u2013 CURR )
WEIGHT -
weight of the employee ( Data Type -- QUAN )
Now the fields SALARY AND WEIGHT fields should refer to currency and quantity keys. So you need to have two more fields like
CURRKEY --- Data Type ( Cuky )
Quantity --- Data Type ( Unit )
Now we have to attach the field Currkey to the field Salary
And the field Quantity to the field Weight
So when u create a table you can see a tab Currency / Quantity fields.
Here You can give the reference table and the reference field against the salary and weight fields.

Custom Screen for Search Help

HI,
I have designed the Search Help in SE11.
Its working fine.
When executed, it pops up the screen for input search criteria.
My question is : is it possible to have this popup screen as our own customised screen.
Can we add some Heading and Subheadings to it?
If yes, please let me know how can we do this.
Thanks in advance.
