Language specific Search help

Hi Experts,
I am using a data dictionary search help in my webdynpro component which in sap core (r/3) gives me 7 values all in english which is my login language , when i run the same search help in my webdynpro component on first hitting the serach button it gives me the same 7 values but if i keep hitting the 'start' it throws me values in other languages as well.
my issue now is i need to keep the value list to the initial 7 in the webdynpro component irrespective of the number of times we hit on the search button.
Please suggest the right approach towards resolving the above issue.
Thanks In Advance,
Chaitanya.

Is this an SAP provided search help or one you created? This doesn't sound like correct functionality. The number of hits shouldn't change if you perform the same search. Also if the keys/descriptions are language keyed, they shouldn't cross over and provide entries from other languages keys than your logon language. If the search help functions differently from the SAPGUI/classic dynpro usage than Web Dynpro ABAP, I would suggest opening a support ticket.

How can I call a specific search help from and still get all the tabs

hello
I use F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST to display a specific search help from my program. This search help is included in a collective search help, but only the one specified search help is displayed.
Is it possible to call the collective search help and display one specific search help ?
Example: in CRM i have a collective search help BUPA. When F4 is issued from a customer field the search help "Search customer" should be displayed, and not the last search help which was activated - i.e.. "Search employee".
best regards
Peter Christiansen

Hi,
you can try some thing like this..
      CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
        EXPORTING
          TABNAME           = 'KNA1'
          FIELDNAME         = 'KUNNR'
          SEARCHHELP        = 'DEBI'
        TABLES
          RETURN_TAB        = LT_RETURN
        EXCEPTIONS
          FIELD_NOT_FOUND   = 1
          NO_HELP_FOR_FIELD = 2
          INCONSISTENT_HELP = 3
          NO_VALUES_FOUND   = 4
          OTHERS            = 5.
      IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
        MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
          WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

Search Help for WebClient

Hi All!
I'm working with CRM2007 over WebClient.
I've enhaced a new Z field in a standard view with the Easy Enhacement Workbench (EEW) and I don't know how to make a Search Help. Can someone help me?
Best regards,
Alejandro.

in CRM2007 you have a default method trying to build the search help for fields of a structure in a generic way (this method is GET_V_S_STRUCT and is inherited by all context nodes)
this method does in order:
- look for a specif search help (method GET_V_fieldname)
- if not found, tries to find Design Layer for the field
- if not found, looks for a value list in domain related to field
so if you field is defined based on a data domain having a list of fixed values (not a check table) then you will get the search help automatically
now if none of these three possibilities is available, then you have to create you own search help^.
This is done by creating the GET_V_fieldname method (you can copy existing method IF_BSP_WD_MODEL_SETTER_GETTER~_GET_V_XYZ so you are sure to have proper signature for your method)
in this method, you put this code:
data: lv_ddlb_threshold      type i value '20', "0: DDLB n: 1-n:, DDLB >n: F4-Popup
        ls_tabname             type ddobjname,
        ls_fieldname           type fieldname,
        lv_op                  type seocmpname,
        lv_component           type name_komp,
        lv_call_search_help    type boolean.
ls_tabname   = me->base_entity_structure.
ls_fieldname = component.
rv_valuehelp_descriptor = cl_crm_uiu_md_valuehelp=>v_getter(
                           is_tabname        = ls_tabname
                           is_fieldname      = ls_fieldname
                           iv_index          = iv_index
                           iv_ddlb_threshold = lv_ddlb_threshold ).
doing this, you will rely on search help as defined on your field (in table definition) and you will display a drop-down list if number of values is less or equal to 20, or a search help if number of values is greater than 20

Call elemetary search help dynamically

Hi,
I would like to call an elemetary search help at run time based on the contents of a screen field.
e.g. field 1 (case type: value 1/2/3/4)
field 2 (case number (get the case number from SH1/SH2/SH3/SH4 depending on value in field 1)
I tried using a serach help exit for this purpose, however there are too many problems. Is there a FM that I can use at on value-request to call the specific search help for field case number?
Examples would be appreciated.
Thx. LM

Hello Liza,
There are quite a few standard Function Modules which help you program your own F4 help in the POV event. You can look for FMs starting with F$IF. One of the most common ones, which might be applicable in your case is F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST. this Function Module has got elaborate documentation which must help you solve your problem without much difficulty.

Search Help in Webdynpro displays specific text in German language

We have created a custom search help which is being displayed using a custom Webdynpro application. We found that for this search help, although all other texts are displayed in English, a specific text ( 'Show filter criteria' ) is being displayed in German. Also, the same problem exists for search helps used in certain standard Webdynpro applications as well ( eg. WDT_FLIGHTLIST, TEST_DDIC ). Is there any SAP note to address this issue?

Hi,

How to get search help tables of a specific table

Hello Guru,
I've a problem.
I'm looking for a way to find out how many "search help" tables exist in a specified Check Table.
Well, when I look for a check table of a field like MARD-LGORT
I got as a check table T001L, now when I read the data from it, using the function module RFC_READ_TABLE I got all the data that I need, except now that I don't know which fields are actually displayed in the search help table of the field LGORT
This what I want, in my case, the field that I need in the table T001L are : LGOBE LGORT WERKS
All the others, are not so important.
Please let me now, if you have an idea to find this.
The search help table is for LTGORT : H_T001L

Howto limit options in search help for DDIC element LANGU (language)?

Hi all,
in my application I have an input field for a language parameter. Of course the standard search help (F4) opens a popup with all possible languages (registered in system). Now I want to limit these languages in the popup to only a few I want.
Is it possible to programmatically do this in ABAP, or do I have to copy the DDIC element and create an EXIT for the search help?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards, Matthias

Matthias F. Brandstetter,
You can do search help in 2 ways.
1.
You can copy existing one and make changes to that and add that to the field for which u want to.
2.
check the search help which tables are being used.if you know the tables , u can write search help using ABAP.
Check the procedure.

Language parameter in search help

Friends,
have created one search help with condition type and condition type text, and associated to the field condition type. NOw on the help popup the data is diplayed for two languages eg, EN an TH though the logon language is EN. can we restrict it?
Many Thanks,
Albert.

if you have problems referring to SYST fields you can get round it by hard-coding the language in a selection condition of your database view,eg
TRDIRT     SPRSL     EQ     'E'
or you can create a search help exit function module and link it to your search help, something like:
FUNCTION z_wxyz_shlp_exit.
""Local interface:
*" TABLES
*"      SHLP_TAB TYPE SHLP_DESCR_TAB_T
*"      RECORD_TAB STRUCTURE SEAHLPRES
*" CHANGING
*"     VALUE(SHLP) TYPE SHLP_DESCR_T
*"     VALUE(CALLCONTROL) LIKE DDSHF4CTRL STRUCTURE DDSHF4CTRL
DATA:
      L_spras                  TYPE spras.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
   <field>                  TYPE dfies.
Language filter logic.
This logic only needs to apply at the 'DISP' event - which is just
before the hit list is displayed
CHECK callcontrol-step = 'DISP'.
find the language entry in the field description table
READ TABLE shlp-fielddescr ASSIGNING <field>
   WITH KEY fieldname = 'SPRAS'.
*.. exit if one is not present
CHECK <field> IS ASSIGNED.
pass through the proposed hit list...
LOOP AT record_tab.
populate the language of the current record
    l_spras = record_tab+<field>-offset(<field>-intlen).
check if it is different from the system language
    IF l_spras <> sy-langu.
*... and if so remove current record from the hit list
      DELETE record_tab.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
ENDFUNCTION.

How to restrict the search help given to a field for a specific program ??

Hi,
I have one search help which is attached to a field.
This seach help is using a Z table and showing values perfectly for one program where I attached earlier.
The same fields and Z table I am using is some other related program where user wants to see the restricted values only.
I am not getting, how a search help can be restricted.
I try to take a example of it.
If in first program the search help values are:
Material           Level
Orange              1
Mango               2
Grapes              3
Now in the second program user wants to see only levels not the material. I Have given only two colums for understanding purposes not all .
Please suggest what are the possible ways we can do it.
Thanks right now.

Populate and display internal table results using search help exit...
