Hi
In which version of SAP are you working?
Matchcodes are replaced by SEARCH HELPs in latest versions
see the doc
1) 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).
2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.
4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.
5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.
6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.
CREATION:
Go to SE11 Tcode
select search help
give the 'z' search help name and create
select the selection method ur table name eg : 'mara'
dialog module 'display value immediately'.
add the field whatever u want and lpos = 1 and spos = 1 and check import and export parameter.
where left position when displaying and spos = search position
and then save and activate ..

Collective search help Combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
A Collective search help provides alternative search
Paths by combining elementary search helps.
Only one search help can be attached to a field, table or data element. Several search paths are therefore attached with a collective search help.
A collective search help also has interface parameters like
an elementary search help.
Like an elementary search help, a collective search help has an interface of IMPORT and EXPORT parameters with which the search help exchanges data. Using this interface, the collective search help can be attached to fields, tables and data elements exactly like an elementary search help.
Parameter assignment needs to be done for each of the
Included search helps.
When you define a collective search help, there are no components for describing the dialog behavior and data selection; instead the included search helps are listed here. You must assign the parameters of the collective search help to the interface parameters of the included search help for each inclusion.
User may choose the tab and thus the elementary
search maethod.
When we execute the search help SCUSTOM, we are confronted with a dialog which gives us an option of either restricting
By 1)Search for customer according to booking
2)Search for customer according to name.
These are effectively the elementary search helps (SCUSTOM_BOOK and SCUSTOM_NAME) which have been included in the collective search help SCUSTOM.
HOT KEY
The hot key is used to select the elementary search help from the collective search help and to enter the restrictions in the dialog box for restricting values directly from the entry field. If the user often searches for values using the same search help, this procedure can save time.
Steps to create a Collective Search Help
1)Enter the search help name and click on create.
2)Choose Collective search help radio button option as the search help type.
3)Enter the search help parameters.
4)Instead of the selection method, we enter the included
search helps for the collective search help.
5)We need to assign parameters for each of the included
search helps.
6)Complete the parameter assignment by clicking on the push button
7)Collective search help offers the user to obtain F4 help
using any of the included search helps.

Follow these steps for creating match code.
now go to SE11 click on search help button and create.
click on elementary search help
once you have created you will see selection method there give there your table name (lfa1)
in the paremeters give the field name <field name> and click on EXP button Lpos as 1 & Spos as 1 then enter and save.
In the code give this way
select-options: S_<fieldname> for lfa1-<fieldname> MATCHCODE OBJECT MCO..

How to use match code object in a FM ?
what is the FM for that?Hi ,
Match Code object is used to attach an F4 help to any field.
whenever you cant find any F4 help for any field you just attach an Match Code Object to the Parameter / Select options.
Match COde objects are like Search Help created in SE11. if you cant find any standard Match Code object then you can create a Search Help in SE11 and attach it to the field , then you will have the F4 Help.

How to implement search help instead of match code objects table in program
Hi,
We are now in upgrade process of code remediation ( From 4.6c to EC6.0).
We have created search helps instead of matchcode object table. This match code object table M_VMVLC has been deleted
in EC6.0. And search help VMVLC is available.
In the program, they have used <M_VMVLC > -<fieldname> i.e. <tablename> - <fieldname> in declaring parameters,
in the 'into' clause of select statement, in the 'from' clause of select statement, in the 'write' statement.
I want to know how to replace this matchcode object table with the search help in the program.

Thanks and Regards
Arun JosephHi,
For many entry fields, but not all, SAP provides a search function called a Matchcode. Matchcodes allow you to select a value from a list or search for a value by categories of data if there are many possibilities.
Types of Matchcodes
Matchcodes fall into three basic categories:
1) Short list or hit list
The values are listed on one screen. For longer lists, you may need to scroll down to see all the values.
2) Restrict Value Range
Many entries are available for the field. A number of tabbed screens with different categories display so that you can enter your search criteria.
3) Calendar search
A calendar-type dialog box is displayed so that you can select day, month, and year. This is used in date fields such as invoice posting date.
Matchcodes were replaced with Search Helps starting with Release 4.0. Please use search helps to assign an input help to a field.
Existing matchcodes were automatically converted to search helps. A matchcode object is hereby converted to a collective search help with the same name. Each matchcode ID of the matchcode object is converted into an elementary search help with the same name and assigned to the collective search help created from the matchcode object.
A matchcode is a means of finding data records stored in the system. The matchcode is defined in the ABAP Dictionary in two steps:
You first define the relevant tables and fields for the search in a matchcode object. A matchcode object describes the set of all possible search paths for a search string.
You then create one or more matchcode IDs for a matchcode object. A matchcode ID describes a special search path for a search string. The matchcode ID defines the fields or field combinations to be used in the search.
A search help can be created in ABAP Dictionary ( tcode se11 )
Create a new search help (say myHelp) , choose Elementary search help (simple one), select Definitions tab, enter the table name(say myTable) in "Text Table" text box.
Then enter the column to be used (say myField) for this help in search help parameter, choose Import/Export, give Lpos as 1, and activate. ( You can add more columns from the same table here).
In report, code as
parameter p1 like myTable-myField matchcode object myHelp.
when you execute this report, p1 will have a f4 help enabled. The help list will have all values from myTable for field myField.
You can do this in SE11 where you have an option for the same

How to create Transaction code for ABAP and execution by other user
Hi All,
Could someone please let me know how to create transaction code in detail for ABAP program. Step by step procedure expected. I would like to know how other user can execute the report using same transaction code which I have created.
More about authorization.
Thanks in advance.Hello,
You can create transaction code from se80 as well.In object navigator,right click on your program name and create->transaction code.You can create transaction and select if it is only a report,a report with selection-screen depending on your requirement.You can run your report directly by entering the transaction code in the command field.
You can authorise the users who can use your transaction:
<b>Authorisation objects</b> are used to restrict certain transactions to users.Critical data must be protected from unauthorised users.For example,the head has access to certain data.But it cannot be accessed by his subordinate.For this we need to define <b>roles</b>.
Create an authorization object with transaction SU21.
An object usually consists of the ACTVT (activity) field and one other field,which specifies the data type to be protected.By ACTVT, we can decide if the data is accessible for change,display only etc.
Add authorization fields to the authorization object created.
Assign the authorization object to the transaction using SE93.
Attach the authorization object to the role using transaction PFCG.
If you want <b>to assign roles</b>,use transaction PFCG.Create a new role.In the AUTHORIZATIONS tab,you can get a self generated profile name and a profile text by clicking on the icon next to it.Then go to the "Change Authorization data" and choose an authorization template.Then you can choose to display/change/create an activity and after the selection,click on the red and white circle.The profile will now be created.
In the user tab,you can give the user details who can use this role.

Matchcodes are defined in two stages in Abap/4 Dictionary:
1) The revelant table and fields are stipulated in matchcode object. A matchcode object describes the set of all possible search paths for a search item.
2) One or more matchcode ID can be defined for a matchcode object. A matchcode ID describes a special search path for a search term.The fields or combination of fields via which the search is to take place is defined in the matchcode ID.
