LInking a User Defind Field with formatted search

Hi!, I created a user defined field called subcategory in the items master data. The field is link to a subcategory table.
But the subcategory is dependant on the item's category or group. So is there a way to filter this, so the user can only select subcategories of the current item category (group)
Thank you!

Thank you for your reply, it has 3 fields.
The Category Code
The SubCategory Code
The Description for the SubCategory
The Category Code its actually the ItmsGrpCod for the Item, the subcategory code its arbitrary defined and unique for each category.

  • Get matrix row data and put it into header field with formatted search ???

    Hi All,
    I ask your help concerning the following:
    On an invoice matrix I want to check all Itemgroup Codes of all items in the rows, if there are some rows' items with ItemGroupcode 101 and some others with anything else, then header field should be Y, otherwise N.
    My main problem is: how do I put a matrix row data to a header data with checking all rows in the matrix?
    A minor problem is that I can't get the formatted search to work on all rows when the formatted search is assigned to the user field in header.
    If I put the formatted search to a row field then the row field is filled with the proper value, but the same query assigned to the user field in header works only on the first row.
    What am I doing wrong?
    SELECT USEDPROD= CASE T0.ItmsGrpCod  WHEN 101 THEN Y ELSE N END FROM .[OITM] T0 WHERE T0.ItemCode = $[$38.1.0]
    (SBO 7.6)
    Any suggestions are welcome.
    Thanks.
    Bálint

    Dear Adele,
    Thanks for the answer. The major one cannot be solved. OK, I'll try to get a workaround.
    However I still do not understand why my query does not work in all selected rows, just in the first row, i.e. if I assign the query to a header field and I'm positioned in the first row it's OK, but when I add a new item to the second row or any of the next rows, the header field is not updated at all.
    Why is that so? Do you have any idea?

  • User defined fields window / formatted search

    HI
    I 've created a user defined field in the marketing documents
    I want tO put the result of a query into this field :
    I use a formatted search in order to have the result :
    SELECT T0.Balance FROM OCRD T0 WHERE T0.CardCode = $[$4.0]
    My query is based on CardCode(item 4), but when the user defined field window is open, the item 4 is the cross of this form and i have the result next :

  • Identifying Fields with Formatted Search

    Hi,
    Is there a way (maybe running a query) to know what fields (of all documents) have formatted search? 
    In doing this, is it possible to know the query name in the formatted search?
    Thank you.
    April

    You can identify the document by using 'FormId' field in the query.
    Form Id    Document
    129     BP
    133     A/R Invoice
    134     Business Partner Master Data

  • User defined field with Linked Table property

    Hi All,
    I know this has been posted several times but I cannot get this to work.  I am trying to add a user defined field and link it to a table. 
    I am getting the error "The field 'Related Table' should consist of 8 alphanumeric characters with no valid or default values " 
    Everything I check says that the code I am using is correct.  Is it possible the problem is that I am trying to connect to an SAP table instead of a user defined table.  Is it possible to link a user defined field to an SAP table?
    My code below:
                    oUserFieldsMD.TableName = "OITM"
                    oUserFieldsMD.Name = "SHP"
                    oUserFieldsMD.Description = "Must ship via"
                    oUserFieldsMD.LinkedTable = "OSHP"
                    oUserFieldsMD.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha
                    oUserFieldsMD.SubType = SAPbobsCOM.BoFldSubTypes.st_None
                    oUserFieldsMD.EditSize = 8
                    oUserFieldsMD.Size = 8
                    oUserFieldsMD.Mandatory = SAPbobsCOM.BoYesNoEnum.tNO
    Thanks
    Karen

    Hello  Karen,
    you cannot link a userfield to a system table. it has to be link to a user table.
    oUserFieldsMD.LinkedTable = "OSHP"
    when you have error, just try to do it using the same value in the application. If you cannot do it, it means you cannot do it neither with the DI

  • Linking a User Defined Field in Items table

    How to Link a User Defined Field in 'Item Master Data' table, to my own User Defined Table?
    Example:
    In Item Master Data table, I want to add 3 User Defined Fields, for e.g, Country, State and Region.
    When the value of Country combo is changed, values loaded in State and Region combos should change automatically.
    I'm storing the relationship between Country,State and Region in my own user defined table. I want to load the comboboxes with a query from that table.
    Or, if there's no solution to the above problem:
    when the Item Master data table is opened, can we launch our own form?
    Is there a way to specify that?
    Please reply me back.. I'm a beginner learning SAP.
    With Thanks in advance,

  • Predefault "User Name" field with Login Name

    Hi,
    Predefault in "LS Medical User Verification" BC does not work. I tried to do the following but all did not work:
    * Put a predefault value in the "User Name" field, System: Creator
    * Create a calc field "SCR Login", calc value: LoginName (). Set predefault of "User Name" field, Field: 'SCR Login"
    * Expose "SCR Login" in the applet. Field is blank in UI.
    We are using the vanilla "LS Medical User Verification Applet" for user verification and we want to predefault the User Name field with the current user logged in. How can I achieve this?
    Thanks,
    Jasmin

    Hi,
    I believe Predefault/Postdefault will only work with NewRecord even and since the User Verification Popup Applet does not go to that event on load that is why it does not work.
    Since the client wanted to default the user name with the current user logged in, we just removed the User name field from the popup applet and pass the TheApplication().LoginName() to the Authentication Business Service.
    Thanks,
    Jasmin

    Hi Jose,
    usually you format strings in c# like
    string.Format("{0:yyyyMMdd}", insertyourstring);
    in your case
    string.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}", insertyourstring);
    [look here|http://idunno.org/archive/2004/14/01/122.aspx]
    there are more details
    if everything fails split the string with Mid()

  • How can i get totals in columns with formated searches

    How can i do this with SDK if it isn´t posible since formated searches

    This is not possible with formated searches.
    With SDK, depends on if it is Matrix or Grid, on if it is a system form/your own form. But basically, loop throw the form or datasource, and do the sumatory.

  • User Defined Field with Link Type

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a user defined field to allow users to attach word documents to Item Master Data.
    I have successfully created a User Defined Field under master data with Type: Data, Structure: Link.
    It appears in the Item Master Data as I would expect. My questions relates to how to use this field. The first time I click on the field, a file browser window appears where I can select a file. Once I select the file I want I click ok and the path to this file appears in the field. The next time that I click on the field the file will open in its respective application.
    My question is: How when the field already contains a path to a file do I change this path so it points to a different file.
    Any help I can get on this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Brian

    Hi,
    If you hold down Ctrl on your keyboard and then double click in the link it will allow you to browse to a different file.

  • Problem With Formatted Search.

    Hi to all,
    I have linked a formatted search to a UDF that lies at row level in AP Invoice. This field is used to display the Sales  Order Price. The requirement is that from SO we create a purchase order and subsequently create a goods receipt and AP invoice.. Now in invoice it is showin perfectly fine whether it is copied from goods receipt or purchase order.. But in the purchase order and goods receipt screen this query will not work. And the same query used in AP invoice is being linked to these documents. Is there any work around for this?? Is it possible to run queries based on the form numbers?? If so ho do i pull the form number in the formatted search query??
    Please Help!!!!
    Regards
    Aris

    I recommend creating separate queries for each document.
    ie
    1 formatted search to lookup price on sales order from AP Invoice
    1 formatted search to lookup price on sales order from GRPO
    1 formatted search to lookup price on sales order from PO
    then change the lookup to pull fields from the document that you are using as a reference.
    when you are building the formatted searhes start by returning the values that are you are using as a reference. That way you are sure that you are pulling the correct information.
    Then layer in the lookup to the sales order.
    If you get stuck I recommend that you copy and paste the formatted search in SQL Server management studio and replace the variables refereces with real values.
    In my experience troubleshooting queries is more effective when using SQL Server management studio. (the error reporting is better).

  • Include the "created by" field in formatted searches

    Hello
    Very stupid question : how do you include the "created by" (usersign) field in a formatted search for marketing document ? Where do you find the variable numbers since this field is not visible on screen ?
    Thanks for your help
    Fabrice

    HI Milton Rafael Mazzali ,
    $[USER] will display user number only.
    First decided where u want to display user name. Create a formatted search for that field with this Query  "SELECT T0.U_NAME FROM OUSR T0 WHERE T0.INTERNAL_K = $[USER]" and select auto refresh when customer code/name changes.
    This will work.

  • SQL Query -How2bring multiple results into one field using Formatted Search

    Hi Everyone
    i am trying to bring in the results of the field dbo.Lot_ITEM.LOT using a formatted search into a row level using the following query:
    SELECT     dbo.LOT_ITEM.LOT
    FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN dbo.LOT_ITEM ON dbo.DLN1.ItemCode = dbo.LOT_ITEM.ITEM
    WHERE     dbo.LOT_ITEM.ITEM=$[DLN1.ItemCode]
    however the result of the dbo.Lot_ITEM.LOT field could be more then one value depending on how many lots are assigned for that item
    (for example this query would be similar to assigning batch/serial numbers to an item being despatched - as you can choose multiple batches/serials depending on the quantities available and required and then move from the left to the right side of the selection window) if that makes sense!
    is it possible to bring in the multiple results into one field? and how can i amend the above query to include this?
    Thankyou in advance :o)

    Hi Suda
    Thanks for replying :o) but im not sure about the query?
    just to simplify it (as the query im working with is to do with 3rd party addons) i have used the serial/batchs field instead and used standard demo database fields from SBO 2005 sp01:
    SELECT     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_IntrSerial
    FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN
                    dbo.ixvSerialNoFact ON dbo.DLN1.DocEntry = dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry
    WHERE     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.ItemCode='g1000' and dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry = '193'
    The above brings me the relevant results but when i change it to be used in a formatted search:
    SELECT     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_IntrSerial
    FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN
                    dbo.ixvSerialNoFact ON dbo.DLN1.DocEntry = dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry
    WHERE     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.ItemCode=$[dln1.itemcode] and dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry = $[dln1.DocEntry]
    i cant seem to get it to work - now this may be because the serial number is not allocated until teh record is added to the system, however when this happens i am unable to go back in and manually trigger the query as the delivery note rows cannot be selected!
    i  think as what im originally wanting an answer for is same as this example, im wanting to know if this is even possible?
    Thanks

  • Help with Formatted search involving a UDF

    I have a Formatted search which runns the following code:
    exec xsp_nssItemLookup $[$38.256.0]
    This search is on a udf of the Purchase order screen.  (256 is the item details field in the details.
    The above query runs fine.  What I really want to do is to pass the contents of another UDF to the stored procedure.  The USF is called U_NSSItemID.  If I change my stored procedure to read:
    exec xsp_nssItemLookup $[$38.U_NSSItemID.0] however it does not work.  I get blank results every time. 
    I have also tried exec xsp_nssItemLookup $[POR1.U_NSSItemID.0]  which doesn't work either. 
    I can't figure out what is wrong with my syntax.  I don't get any errors, just a blank value.
    Thanks

    Suda,
    Thanks for answering so quickly.  To answer your question the data type is Alphanumber which I just figured out is the save as CHAR() in SQL.  My problem turned out to be that I needed to trim the spaces from my parameter.  I was getting values like "cover                         ", and I needted to get "cover".  Problem solved now.
