how to use search help in layout of se51.

Hi,
One of the important features of screens is that they can provide users with lists of possible entries for a field. There are three techniques that you can use to create and display input help:
Definition in the ABAP Dictionary
In the ABAP Dictionary, you can link search helps to fields. When you create screen fields with reference to ABAP Dictionary fields, the corresponding search helps are then automatically available. If a field has no search help, the ABAP Dictionary still offers the contents of a check table, the fixed values of the underlying domain, or static calendar or clock help.
Definition on a screen
You can use the input checks of the screen flow logic, or link search helps from the ABAP Dictionary to individual screen fields.
Definition in dialog modules
You can call ABAP dialog modules in the POV event of the screen flow logic and program your own input help.
These three techniques are listed in order of ascending priority. If you use more than one technique at the same time, the POV module calls override any definition on the screen, which, in turn, overrides the link from the ABAP Dictionary.
However, the order of preference for these techniques should be the order listed above. You should, wherever possible, use a search help from the ABAP Dictionary, and only use dialog modules when there is really no alternative. In particular, you should consider using a search help exit to enhance a search help before writing your own dialog modules.

How to use Search help PRCTR_EMPTY in Web dynrpo ABAP

Hi,
I have a requirement to use search help PRCTR_EMPTY as F4 help for an InputField in my application. But, in the F4 help, if I select "Profit Center Via Standard heirarchy" and search, it is giving me the following error:
"Sending of dynpro SAPLSPO4 0300 not possible: No window system type specified"
Here the search help is trying to call a R/3 screen from web dynpro.
Pelase suggest me if there is any other way to use this search help in web dynpro.
Thanks,
Manogna

hello,
Any search help where R/3 screen is called, will not work in WD ABAP environment. You can create search help using OVS and follow the similar way of data selection as in search help.

How to use search help in abap dynpro

i have created a search help in dictionary and used it in my database table. now i want to use it in web dynpro component. while running my application when im clicking on input help field, it is giving an error -"The Entered Values is not on the list of Selected Values." how do i resolve it?

hi varuna.......
     for example, create a search help for matnr in mara. create an attribute of type mara-matnr or matnr. by default you will get a search help or you can assign your own too. this is the general process.
       you might have assigned a search help of different data type to an attribute of different data type or
       you would have entered a value in the input help and then clicked the search help which is not having those values.

How to use search term2 in customer master record

hi
how to use search term2 in customer master record. can anyone tell me plz
thanks
monica

Hi,
Search Term 2
Label used for search helps.
Only uppercase letters are stored in this field. Your entries are converted automatically to uppercase letters.
There are two of these fields for search terms. These fields can be used independently of each other.
Procedure
You can use your own criteria for entering the search term.
Example
You can enter the main part of the name or an organizational ID.
For example, for the company "Hechinger & Sons", you could enter "Hechinger" as the first search term.
The second search term could then be the name ID you use within your company, to help you identify your data later.
Please check out the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/EN/01/a9b331455711d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Hope this helps.
Please assign points as a way to say thanks.

Using SEARCH HELP exit in dependency of other parameters from my dynpro.

Hello experts,
how can I access the values of input fields (parameters or select-options) from my dynpro?
I need to build a F4-help in dependencie of another field on the screen with help of the F4 - exit. I think this should be possible.
If I do test the search help with SE11 it works fine. All parameters from screen are given in SHLP_TAB[1]-INTERFACE (the parameter of my f4-help-exit)
The short example explains the problem more detailed.
REPORT test_dynpro_events_ck.
PARAMETERS ea1 TYPE my_char_10_ck DEFAULT 'here I push F4' MATCHCODE OBJECT MY_F4_HELP_CK.
PARAMETERS ea2 TYPE my_char_10_ck DEFAULT 'this is the value I need to generate the F4 help of field ea1'.
MY_F4_HELP_CK:
import: EA1 and EA2
export EA1
Many Thanks
Christian

Thank you so far.
But how are these parameters passed to the search help without using global set/get parameters or DYNPRO_READ_VALUE? Why can I put these parameters to my search help as input parameters ... seems to be useless if I use search help on Selection-Dynpros?
Is there not a better way to deal with search-helps which are dependent from other input fields? Btw. I need the value without passing PAI and PBO.
In my Example:
doing some text inputs in field EA2 -> hit search help on EA1 -> need a selection dialog in dependency of the input in EA2. This can not be that complicated?
Many thanks
Christian

Hi how to attach search help to a field

hi all,
how to attach search help to a field.

hi
Attaching a search help to a field
A search help can influence the behavior of a field when the input help is called. The search help must be assigned to the field in order to do this. You have the following options for this assignment:
Attach search help to a data element / table or structure field / screen field / check table.
Conventionally search helps are attached to table fields or data elements. We shall see the same.
Attaching a search help to a table field
Choose the field name, click on search help tab and
provide the name of the search help.
A search help is attached to a field of a table or structure in the maintenance transaction for this table/structure, analogously to attaching to a table. You must assign the interface parameters of the search help to any fields of the table/structure. The search field must be assigned to an EXPORT parameter of the search help at this time.
Attach the search help to the table field
The search help ZSTRAVELAG_NAME is therefore directly attached to the field AGENCYNUM of table ZSTRAVELAG.
Attaching a search help to a data element
Provide the search help name and the parameter name
under the further characteristics tab of the data element.
If the input help of a field is defined by its data element, no further screen fields can be used in the input help.
Also note that the input F4 help would be available wherever the data element is used.
Attaching a search help to a screen element
A search help can be directly assigned to a screen field in two ways.
The name of the search help must be entered in the Screen Painter in the Attributes for the field in the field Search help.
The name of the search help can be defined for selection screens in ABAP reports in the PARAMETERS or SELECT-OPTIONS statement directly following the supplement MATCHCODE OBJECT.
However, input help is only available for this particular screen.
In this case, the search help is only available for this screen.
IF YOU WANT TO ATTCH A SERACH HELP TO THE SCREEN FILED THIS IS THE CODE
TYPES : BEGIN OF ST_OBJID_SH,
OTYPE TYPE HRP1000-OTYPE,
OBJID TYPE HRP1000-OBJID,
END OF ST_OBJID_SH.

How to add search help to custom infotype listbox??

Hi All,
How to add search help to custom infotype listbox??
Thanks in advance

Hi Vinay,
We have search help and list box as 2 different options.
At a time we can make a field a list box or a search help.List box is restricted and we can pick values from the defined list whereas in search help we can allow more entries and then validate the value entered later.
Implementing a listbox or search help in infotype is same as that of implementing it in a modulepool .
for search help..we can create a custom search help or check for existing search help in se11
then in the screen on infotype field..assign the search help direcly at the screen painter level..
double click on the field in screen painter -> change mode and then in the space for "search help" enter the search helps name
for list box..in the screen painter ,make sure the field is selected as list box..then in PAI of screen we do a
(Process on value-request..field fieldname module module name)..check syntax and other details...
Using function module vrm_set_value fill the field and populate it as required
Pls check and revert
Regards
Byju

Any Functions can I use Search Help on VALUE-REQUEST in PAI.

Hi~!! Experts.
I want to know some functions or methods of Search Help.
I have made a ZHxxxx Search Help in SE11.
And I applied a screen field by using screen painter.
But I want to fill up the other fields, using selected value.
So I made a Module under th PROCESS On VALUE-REQUEST.
unfortunately, I can't use no more The Search that I made.
I want to using the Search Help(ZHxxxx), and I want to fill up the other fields by using that's values.
I guess some F4 functions can use Search Help. Right?
Anyone know how to deal it. Please answer me,. The program Type is Module Pool program.

Hi Insik,
Proceed as below :-
First of all declare the module below in the flow logic of your screen then create it in your main program.
You declare the module in the PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
FIELD TXT_DOCNO MODULE VALUE_BELNR.
You also need to create an internal table where you wil store results of the select query fired below in the module.
Here you will get a F4 help on the filed Document Number(TXT_DOCNO) based on the field Company code (TXT_CODCO)
MODULE VALUE_BELNR INPUT.
progname = sy-repid.
dynnum = sy-dynnr.
CLEAR: field_value, dynpro_values.
field_value-fieldname = 'TXT_CODCO'.
APPEND field_value TO dynpro_values.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
EXPORTING
tabname = 'BKPF'
