Hi,
I assume that you read values for the search help with function 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST' and in a later step you display values with <htmlb:tableview>. If that is true and the function is delivering too many records as you mention, you could then restrict the output table of values like this:
TABLES mara.
DATA: mytable TYPE TABLE OF ddshretval WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA l_repid TYPE syrepid.
PARAMETERS p_mtart LIKE mara-mtart.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST
FOR p_mtart.
l_repid = sy-repid.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
EXPORTING
tabname = 'MARA'
fieldname = 'MTART'
dynpprog = l_repid
callback_program = l_repid
callback_form = 'F4CALLBACK'
TABLES
return_tab = mytable
EXCEPTIONS
field_not_found = 1
no_help_for_field = 2
inconsistent_help = 3
no_values_found = 4
OTHERS = 5.
START-OF-SELECTION.
blah, blah, blah
* Form F4_form
* Exclude all material types that start with F & H
FORM f4callback
TABLES record_tab STRUCTURE seahlpres
CHANGING shlp TYPE shlp_descr
callcontrol LIKE ddshf4ctrl.
DATA: aux_struc TYPE ddshselopt.
MOVE: 'H_T134' to aux_struc-shlpname,
'MTART' TO aux_struc-shlpfield,
'E' TO aux_struc-sign,
'CP' TO aux_struc-option,
'F*' TO aux_struc-low.
append aux_struc to SHLP-SELOPT.
MOVE: 'H_T134' to aux_struc-shlpname,

Restricting the Value of Search help in MIRO based on vendor

Dear all,
I had a problem in resticting the values of search help for vendor in the Po reference tab. the Seach help is KRED . I had written a search help exit in it but i dont know how to restrict the vaues. I have to restict the Vendors Which starts with 1 series like 10000001,1000002 etc.
Can any one help me out where to write the code in search help exit like CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'SELONE' or 'SELECT' or 'DISP' and what logic i need to use.
Thanks & regards
sreehari p

Hi Sreehari,
Write your Select query inside IF callcontrol-step = 'DISP'.
Use below code.
*Types
TYPES: BEGIN OF l_ty_tab,
         lifnr TYPE lifnr,
         END OF l_ty_tab.
DATA: l_t_tab TYPE TABLE OF l_ty_tab,
        l_wa_tab TYPE l_ty_tab,
        l_wa_recordtab TYPE seahlpres.
*Before displaying hitlist
IF callcontrol-step = 'DISP'.
    REFRESH: record_tab[],l_t_tab[].
SELECT LIFNR FROM lfa1 INTO TABLE l_t_tab WHERE lifnr LIKE '1%'.
IF NOT l_t_tab[] IS INITIAL.
*Pass hitlist to standard table record_tab
    LOOP AT l_t_tab INTO l_wa_tab.
      l_wa_recordtab-string = l_wa_tab.
      APPEND l_wa_recordtab TO record_tab.
      clear l_wa_recordtab.

How to Restrict the values of Field TASKTYPE on a ALV Grid.?

Hi;
Let me explain my problem. I have report written by another abap developer who has gone now.
On the ALV Grid there is a field called "Activity Process". By F1 F9 I can read that field depends on table TCATX_TASKTYPES and field TASKTYPE . From se11 I can see that there is no search help related with the field.
When the user press F4 all the data in the table is listed . The user want to filter some of the listed data according to same logic .
When I debug the code after F4 on the field I found that the system finds Search Help: TCATX_TASKTYPES of type 'CT'. But unfortunately SE11 says that there in no search help such as TCATX_TASKTYPES.
The previous abap developer used BADI NETW_USER_FIELDS_F4 AT_F4 with class ZCL_IM_NETW_USER_FIELDS_F4 and interface IF_EX_NETW_USER_FIELDS_F4 for the transaction cj20n to filter the same field but this is not triggered by the F4 on the ALV Grid.
What can I do ?
Would you please help me ?

I know i can do this using ADF Business Components as the business service but the problem is that the initial value for that attribute will be changed depending on the screen ... ill give u a simple example : lets say that I have employee table ( which include dept column) and under that table I have a table called "Emp_dept_movements" now in the main ADF page "employee entry" I have two blocks Employee data ( master view) employee dept data ( detail view ) now when the user press the create-insert button on the employee dept view the system should copy the dept no from the employee view to the dept no on the emp_dept_movements view... and the "Emp_dept_movements" will be used in another screen called " employee departement movements" without any initial value for the DeptNo
I dont want to create more than one view and cant set the initial value for that attribute in the view , Can this be done through the UI by adding set action listener on that button and specifying from ( binding master_view.dept ) - to (binding of detail_view.dept) ..
hope that am clear this time,

How can I restrict the values obtained in a search help?

Hi guys,
The thing is that there is a function module that according to the user name, and a material number, it tells wheter the user has permission to see the material or not.
It is possible to use that function module to restrict the values of the search help?
Thanks

Hello Raulie,
1. If the function module is not much complex then copy the same Functionmodule into your custom name ,...
Then you would have the control at your end,,,,
2. If the funciton module is very complex then fetch the data manually and create a custom f4 help ... to fetch the data use the similar logic of the function module so that data does not get deleted.
Thanks,

How to restrict the user to enter only numeric values in a input field

How to restrict the user to enter only numeric values in a input field.
For example,
i have an input field in that i would like to enter
only numeric values. no special characters,alphabets .
reply ASAP

Hi Venuthurupalli,
As valery has said once you select the value to be of type integer,once you perform an action it will be validated and error message that non numeric characters are there will be shown. If you want to set additional constraints like max value, min value etc you can use simple types for it.
On the project structure on left hand side under local dictionary ->datatypes->simple types create a simple type of type integer
The attribute which you are binding to value property ;make its type as simple type which you made
Hope this helps you

HOW to Restrict the input Help for 0MATERIAL in the BPS Layout

Hi,
I have requirement to Restrict the input Help for 0MATERIAL in the BPS Layout.
For Example if the Planning Package is Restricted to SALES ORGANISATION ( 3000 ) then the system shuold check the 0MAT_SALES where SALES ORGANISATION IS "3000" )AND PASS THE Material Numbers to the 0material list.
I have Copied the standard Funtcion group "UPF_VARIABLE_USER_EXIT" to Z fucttion and have attached to Z Variabe as User Exit .
this Variable is Attached to 0material in the Planning Pakage. So tha now the 0MATERIAL is restricted to the variable which is having the User Exit.
But how to acces the Values of Planning Package for which the Layout is bein Executed from this Z User Exit ???
I Know how to restrict the input help, but my only problem is that how to get the values of Planning package through this User Exit.
Please suggest if it is possible.
Regards,
Nilesh Labde

Hi Nilesh,
As I understand from your question,you know how to restrict but the issue is to know the value in the package with which you need to restrict.
There are two tables which can help you finding the value used in package for sales organisation:
1. UPC_PACKAGE
2. UPC_OPTIOS
How to use ?
From UPC Package you will get one GUID, Hit the second table UPC_OPTIOS with this GUID.
In field "FIELDNAME" enter the name of the characteristic whose value is req (sales organisation in your case)
Hope this helps you

How to restrict the particular value in BEx?

HI,
I have added particular dimension in query prompt. While refreshing i got more value in particular dimension. How to restrict the the value in bobj or bex?
Here i attached the screen shot. Please find the attachment.

Hi Mani,
Please make sure of your requirement. If you are using only one single query for multiple reports then i strongly recommend the below criteria or else it better to restrict the value in the BEx itself if you have no other reports on the same BEx query.
If you are trying to restrict a report to a default prompt value then use equal to in query filter prompt or you can also restrict them to list of values i.e multiple values.Please follow as per the screens below. I am mentioning two ways.
Method:1
Step 1: Click on Prompt Options(Blue Questionmark Symbol)
Step: 2 : Click on the Values after you check the prompt properties options as shown below.
Step 3: Search for values if they are keys by checking the "Search in keys" or else not required.
Method 2: Here is another Easy way is Just give the input in the value box as shown below.
Let me know if you need any further help.
Regards,
Naveen

How to restrict the attribute values for the user in query designer

Hi All,
I have a requirment where certain user would see certain vailes in the query desiner of the attribute.
The requirment is we have planing material which is attribute of material
When X user want to restrict the values for planning material ,where he is able to see all the planning material.But who is not authorized for all the value.
Ex: X user has authorization for see planning material 100,101,102. of material But when he try to restrict the planning material in query designer where is getting all values of planing material.
Or
is there way to blank the restriction help.so that he can't able to see values while restricting
Please some one can advise me on it..

Hi,
Let me sum up:
you have an object ZPLNMAT for the planning material
you have the object 0MATERIAL for material and this object has ZPLNMAT as attribute.
If you can restrict in the query designer, I suppose this attribute is then as navigationnal and also added in the multi-provider.
The object ZPLNMAT is checked as relevant for authorization, and you set up a role with the attached values of ZPLNMAT this user should have access to.
Are you sure the users are restricting on the ZPLNMAT object and not 0MATERIAL, because you should have everything now

How to restrict the duplicate values in lov column of VO based Adv Table

Hi Gurus,
I want to restrict the duplicate values at lov which is a colunm in an Adv Table.
If user enters duplicate values then first it should show an error msg that Duplicate values have been entered.
After the duplicate values have been removed, then the user can save all the values in the table.
My Adv Table is based on a VO.
The link how to restrict the duplicate values at form level
talks about Adv Table based on a EoVO, which doesnot work in my case.
My Approach,
I am iterating through RowSetIterator and committing through PROCEDURE.
I am able to avoid duplicate entry through a function checkRespId. (given below)
Below code is for iterating and committing.
public void saveline(String reqid,String userid)
System.out.println("RequestId/saveline"+reqid);
System.out.println("UserId/saveline"+userid);
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)getRespLineVO1();
RespLineVORowImpl row = null;
int fetchedRowCount = vo.getFetchedRowCount();
RowSetIterator deleteIter = vo.createRowSetIterator("deleteIter");
if (fetchedRowCount > 0)
deleteIter.setRangeStart(0);
deleteIter.setRangeSize(fetchedRowCount);
for (int i = 0; i < fetchedRowCount; i++)
System.out.println("Inside the for LOOP");
row = (RespLineVORowImpl)deleteIter.getRowAtRangeIndex(i);
String respoidid = row.getAttribute("ResponsibilityId")+"";
String respname = row.getAttribute("ResponsibilityName")+"";
String stdate = row.getAttribute("StartDate")+"";
String enddate = row.getAttribute("EndDate")+"";
String linestatus ="A";
if(userid!=null)
if(!(respoidid.equals("null")) && respoidid!=null)
String checkingrespid=null;
checkingrespid = checkRespId(userid,respoidid);+contains no if not duplicate and yes if its duplicate+
System.out.println("checkingrespid for Resp with ID :"+respoidid+"exists or not "+checkingrespid);
if(checkingrespid.equals("No"))
String message, result = null;
Connection txn = getOADBTransaction().getJdbcConnection();
try
calling PROC ...
catch(Exception e)
message = "Error in Inserting into line" + e;
throw new OAException(message, OAException.ERROR);
else
throw new OAException("You have entered duplicate no. of values", OAException.ERROR);
else
System.out.println("respoidid is null");
break;
deleteIter.closeRowSetIterator();
public String checkRespId(String userid,String respoidid)
String createRow="No";
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)findViewObject("CheckRespVO1");
if (vo != null)
vo.setWhereClauseParams(null);
vo.setWhereClauseParam(0, userid);
vo.setWhereClauseParam(1, respoidid);
vo.executeQuery();
System.out.println("ROW COUNT IS "+vo.getRowCount());
if(vo.getRowCount()>0)
createRow="Yes";
else
createRow="No";
return createRow;
Problem:
I remove the duplicate entries and click on save and get this error.
Unable to perform transaction on the record. \nCause: The record contains stale data. The record has been modified by another user.
\nAction: Cancel the transaction and re-query the record to get the new data.

How to restrict the department to not user other departments' equipment?

Dear SAPIENTS,
How to restrict the department to not user other departments' equipment? If suppose any one creating order for equipment having different authorization group then system should not allow me to do this.
Regards,
Kaushal Rai

Kaushal Rai,
Use Authorization group for technical objects, create authorization gruops in IMG and assign the same to the Equipment master and block the other department with the same authorization group. For ristricting the authorization group to other departments after creating and assigning it to the equipment seek help from your BASIS team.
goto the below path for cerating the Authorization group:
IMG - PMCS - Master data in PMCS - Technical Objects - Define Authorization groups:
Here you define the authorization groups, after completion of this step go to the Equipment master in General Data tab page there is a feild Authourization Group, mention the respective authorization group and provide this Authorization gruop value to the respective user in the user role with the help of BASIS Team.
