MSS 'Request for transfer' PCR / Search-help

Does anyone know how to implement a Search Help in an Interactive Adobe Form? I have a requirement to fill a field with a manager and I have 17500 of them to choose from! Tried a Dropdown list, but it is not really appropriate, unless theres a way of entering a wildcard in the input field and using it to limit the dropdown list.
I am implementing the Transfer Request PCR SPTR in MSS 60.1, this PCR Adobe form is not delivered by SAP and I need to develop it.
Many thanks ... Andy

Hi Andy,
this is possible with mySAP ERP 2005 (probably SPS 6). Such complex search help will be implemented with the platform-independent integration of the Adobe technology in Web Dynpro, which is only available with SAP NetWeaver 2004s, i.e. not in mySAP ERP 2004.

Getting the value of a dynpro field in an exit for a standard search help.

Hallo Experts!
I need to modify the selected data displayed in standard sap search help: H_T357
What I've done is create an exit for the search help.
Then, when CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'DISP' I use the function module F4UT_PARAMETER_VALUE_GET and I get the value of the parameter 'WERKS' correctly. I think that this function module can only obtain values from the parameters of the search help. Well, here is the problem, I would like to get the values of dynpro fields
'ILOA-STORT' and 'VIQMEL-QMART' (warning type) in transaction IW21.
I prefer not to add these fields as parameters to the standard search help: H_T357.
Any ideas for getting the value of these fields? I've seen functions modules: F4UT_GET_ENVIRONMENT and F4UT_SH_SIC_GET_FIELDS. But I don't know if I can use them for my porpuses.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hello again,
I have already solved the problem using function module 'DYNP_VALUES_READ'.
Thanks, David.

Event Handling for free programmed search help bond dynamically in SO

Dear Expert,
I met a problem of how to handle an event raised by a free programmed search help - (F4), and this F4 is invoked
by a field defined in a Selection Option component (WDR_SELECT_OPTIONS) - SO.
The scenario is that I would like to update the SO after the user multiple select some entries in the F4. I could tranfer
back all the value chosen in the F4 to the consumer SO, but I can not update the icon in the SO(e.g in SO, multiple values will be
displayed with a green arrow icon), because I could not define a handler in SAP standard component SO, and it looks like there is no chance to catch the event triggered at the end of selection in F4. (this event belonged to this F4)
Welcome any suggestions or ideas, Thanks very very much.
In Addition, I use this way to enable the F4 for SO
lo_so_component->create_cmp_usage_group(
name = 'F4_TRANSPORT'
used_component = 'ZTRANSPORT').

thanks all

Steps for creation of search help exit for a search help

Hi,
I have created a search help. I need to create a search help exit for this search help.
Please let me know how to create a search help exit as well as how to link it to my search help.

1)Copy the FM F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE to write your own FM. (check the documentation and coding of FM F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE).
2)write your code depending upon the functionality you want.
3)attach the FM in search help through SE11 in "search help exit" field.
A search help exit is a function module for making the input help process described by the search help more flexible than possible with the standard version.
This function module must have the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE. The search help exit may also have further optional parameters (in particular any EXPORTING parameters).
A search help exit is called at certain timepoints in the input help process.
Note: The source text and long documentation of the above-specified function module (including the long documentation about the parameters) contain information about using search help exits.
Function modules are provided in the function library for operations that are frequently executed in search help exits. The names of these function modules begin with the prefix F4UT_. These function modules can either be used directly as search help exits or used within other search help exits. You can find precise instructions for use in the long documentation for the corresponding function module.
This module has been created as an example for the interface and design of Search help exits in Search help.
All the interface parameters defined here are mandatory for a function module to be used as a search help exit, because the calling program does not know which parameters are actually used internally.
A search help exit is called repeatedly in connection with several events during the F4 process. The relevant step of the process is passed on in the CALLCONTROL step. If the module is intended to perform only a few modifications before the step, CALLCONTROL-STEP should remain unchanged.
However, if the step is performed completely by the module, the following step must be returned in CALLCONTROL-STEP.
For more detailed information please refer to the documentation describing the concept of the search help exit.
The module must react with an immediate EXIT to all steps that it does not know or does not want to handle.

Hi,
Did you replicate the data source?. That could be the problem or there might be problem you have set up the source system on your BW system
make sure that the source system names are mapped from your R/3 dev to your R/3 QA. This is done on the BW QA (target system) RSA1 => Tools => mapping of source system names. make sure your entries are there for the logical system names of your dev to qa.
Then in the BW dev, when selecting the trasnfer rule make sure to select the appropriate source system. (souce system icon in tool bar)
Do u hav 2 Source sys ?

I have a somewhat strange request for anyone who can help. A300-146.

A friend of mine gave me this satellite A300-146 laptop about a year ago, and I want to fix it up so I can use it. The trouble is, this is not a US model, and the motherboard is bad. It turns on, everything spins up (except the HDD, that was dead) but no video. I've had the same situation with desktops and it was invariably a dead mobo. So my question is this. Are there any other a series mobos that will work in this thing? I've tried google searching for the same model type mobo, but no dice, not even from overseas retailers and wholesalers.

I think you'll find this one works: V000125000

3rd request for some wonderful persons help!

I'm trying to connect across a network with RMI and I get the error:
"Connection refused to host 138.79.115.36; nexted exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect."
138.79.115.36 is the machine my client is on
138.79.115.30 is the server machine
I have one jar file which I've unzipped on both machines. It contains the following folder structures
../kye/db/
../kye/clientGUI
../examples/classServer
the db folder has all the files for running the RMI server
the clientGUI has all the client GUI files.
the examples/classServer is the webserver that it is suggested to download in the RMI tutorial
I tried to follow the sun tutorial but I only have one jar file so it's a bit modified. And I know somethings are unecesarily duplicated. Maybe this is part of the problem. Not sure.
Everything is unzipped in d:\public (which is shared) on the server and I use the following commands to start everything running.
Start the webserver
d:\public>start java examples.classServer.ClassFileServer 2222 /public
Start the server
start java -Djava.rmi.server.codebase=http://138.79.115.30:2222/ kye.db.DataServerGUI
Then on the client machine
java kye.clientGUI.ApplicationRunner
When the client opens it asks for the servers ip address, I enter it and when connecting get the above error. I have a policy file which is specified in both the client and the server. It contains this:
grant
permission java.security.AllPermission;
permission java.net.SocketPermission
"*:1024-65535", "connect, resolve";
What do I have to change or fix to get this running?
I'm happy to send out copies of the .jar file to anyone who needs more information.
I appreciate any help and I'm pretty desperate
Thanks
Kylie

Thanks John,
It does seem a strange message. But the ip addressses are definitely correct that I'm entering. I wondered why the client would say that the client refused connection.
Here is the code for making the client connection:
public ServerClient(String ipAddress)throws DatabaseException{
try{
System.setProperty("java.security.policy", "access.policy");
if (System.getSecurityManager() == null) {
System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());
db = (DataClient)Naming.lookup(ipAddress + "/kyeData");
}catch(RemoteException re){
throw new DatabaseException(re.getMessage());
}catch(Exception e){
throw new DatabaseException(e.getMessage());
Here is the code that registers the RemoteServer:
try{
System.setProperty("java.security.policy", "access.policy");
if (System.getSecurityManager() == null) {
System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());
//ClassFileServer cfs = new ClassFileServer(2222, "suncertify.jar");
server = new DataRemoteImpl(databaseName.getText());
output.append(InetAddress.getLocalHost().toString() + "\n\n");
//start up the registry and add our object
java.rmi.registry.LocateRegistry.createRegistry(1099);
Naming.rebind("rmi://" + InetAddress.getLocalHost().toString() + "/kyeData", server);
//check to make sure it is bound????
String bindings[] = Naming.list("");
for(int a=0; a<bindings.length; a++)
output.append(bindings[a] + "\n");
Is there anything you can see that's wrong or in the wrong order? I start the registry from within the RemoteServer. I've commented out the webserver that I was trying to use to locate files. I'm not sure if that was working.
Any more ideas? I've tried it on different networks in the office, to make sure that none of our security systems were interfering and the same things occurred on all the different machines.

Urgent request for Flash 8 DataGrid Help

I truly need help with this one =- so I hope someone can help
me.
I have tried the Flash help files but to NO avail. I have
been working on this for 6 weeks and to be honest want to throw
Flash out the window right now(and would too if my computer
woudln't take up such a banging in the process:)
I have to populate a DataGrid from XML data. The data is
generated from C# code. Its dynamic, so there are no specified URLs
to place within the code. I have placed below, the ActionScript
code as well as the XML that is being fed in.
I hope someone can help me as it needs to be completed by
tomorrow and I am freaking out!

So many people having the same problem, myself included, surely we can't all have a fault inside our premises? It has to be something at your end BT.
I am told I might be billed £130 for an engineer to call at my home? I think not, as I said so many people having the same problem, the fault lies with BT

PCR fors - Request for separation

Hi All,
Version: ERP 2005 , MSS BP 1.0
We are using the standard delivered "Request for separation" PCR form in MSS.
the drop down for the reasons for separation does not display anything. These reasons are configured in the IMG and can be seen in R/3. The separation action has also been assgined to this request scenario SPSE. Any inputs where I need to troubleshoot. This seems to be an IMG issue .. any chance this being a portal issue ?
Thanks,
Mark.

Even I am also not seeing any reason in the drop on portal. I am on ERP2004, EP6.0Sp20. The note 683612 did not help me either. I see the action type 10 there.
Is there any other configuration missing?
Thanks!

Search help for field in ABAP Query

Hi Experts,
For a particular field in standard table the search help(F4) is not maintained in the table level, which is used in a ABAP query.
Is there any possibilities for user-defined Search help using InfoSet or Query?
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance,
Balaganesh.

Hi Bala,
I understand your question better now. Since you mention standard selections I assume that your InfoSet is based on a logical database instead of a table join, direct read, or custom data retrieval program. You are correct that the AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE REQUEST logic I mentioned earlier will not work for the standard selections of a logical database. The system gives you an error when generating your InfoSet if you try to use the standard selection name (in ECC 5.0 at least). I've tried various tricks to attempt to get it to work, but so far no luck.
You could, of course, use a different logical database as your InfoSet basis (e.g. VAV has a matchcode on VBAK-VBELN) or create your own data retrieval program and change your InfoSet to use the custom program instead of a logical database. In the second case you wouldn't need to deal with standard selections at all. I understand that these solutions are probably not what you need and, in the case of the custom data retrieval program, would be more complex (it may not be worth it to write a custom program just to allow F4 help... or maybe it would be... just depends).
Please keep us updated if you find a way to do it. I'll also report back if I happen to discover a way.
Best Regards,
Jamie

Need some help in creating Search Help for standard screen/field

I need some help in adding a search-help to a standard screen-field.
Transaction Code - PP01,
Plan Version - Current Plan (PLVAR = '01'),
Object Type - Position ( OTYPE = 'S'),
Click on Infotype Name - Object ( Infotype 1000) and Create.
I need to add search help to fields Object Abbr (P1000-SHORT) / Object Name (P1000-STEXT).
I want to create one custom table with fields, Position Abb, Position Name, Job. Position Abb should be Primary Key. And when object type is Position (S), I should be able to press F4 for Object Abb/Object Name fields and should return Position Abbr and Position Name.
I specify again, I have to add a new search help to standard screen/field and not to enhance it.
This is HR specific transaction. If someone has done similar thing with some other transation, please let me know.
There is no existing search help for these fields. If sm1 ever tried or has an idea how to add new search help to a standard screen/field.
It's urgent.
Thanks in advace. Suitable answers will be rewarded

A search help exit is a function module for making the input help process described by the search help more flexible than possible with the standard version.
This function module must have the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE. The search help exit may also have further optional parameters (in particular any EXPORTING parameters).
A search help exit is called at certain timepoints in the input help process.
Note: The source text and long documentation of the above-specified function module (including the long documentation about the parameters) contain information about using search help exits.
Function modules are provided in the function library for operations that are frequently executed in search help exits. The names of these function modules begin with the prefix F4UT_. These function modules can either be used directly as search help exits or used within other search help exits. You can find precise instructions for use in the long documentation for the corresponding function module.
During the input help process, a number of timepoints are defined that each define the beginning of an important operation of the input help process.
If the input help process is defined with a search help having a search help exit, this search help exit is called at each of these timepoints. If required, the search help exit can also influence the process and even determine that the process should be continued at a different timepoint.
timepoints
The following timepoints are defined:
1. SELONE
Call before selecting an elementary search help. The possible elementary search helps are already in SHLP_TAB. This timepoint can be used in a search help exit of a collective search help to restrict the selection possibilities for the elementary search helps.
Entries that are deleted from SHLP_TAB in this step are not offered in the elementary search help selection. If there is only one entry remaining in SHLP_TAB, the dialog box for selecting elementary search helps is skipped. You may not change the next timepoint.
The timepoint is not accessed again if another elementary search help is to be selected during the dialog.
2. PRESEL1
After selecting an elementary search help. Table INTERFACE has not yet been copied to table SELOPT at this timepoint in the definition of the search help (type SHLP_DESCR_T). This means that you can still influence the attachment of the search help to the screen here. (Table INTERFACE contains the information about how the search help parameters are related to the screen fields).
3. PRESEL
Before sending the dialog box for restricting values. This timepoint is suitable for predefining the value restriction or for completely suppressing or copying the dialog.
4. SELECT
Before selecting the values. If you do not want the default selection, you should copy this timepoint with a search help exit. DISP should be set as the next timepoint.
5. DISP
Before displaying the hit list. This timepoint is suitable for restricting the values to be displayed, e.g. depending on authorizations.
6. RETURN (usually as return value for the next timepoint)
The RETURN timepoint should be returned as the next step if a single hit was selected in a search help exit.
It can make sense to change the F4 flow at this timepoint if control of the process sequence of the Transaction should depend on the selected value (typical example: setting SET/GET parameters). However, you should note that the process will then depend on whether a value was entered manually or with an input help.
7. RETTOP
You only go to this timepoint if the input help is controlled by a collective search help. It directly follows the timepoint RETURN. The search help exit of the collective search help, however, is called at timepoint RETTOP.
8. EXIT (only for return as next timepoint)
The EXIT timepoint should be returned as the next step if the user had the opportunity to terminate the dialog within the search help exit.
9. CREATE
The CREATE timepoint is only accessed if the user selects the function "Create new values". This function is only available if field CUSTTAB of the control string CALLCONTROL was given a value not equal to SPACE earlier on.
The name of the (customizing) table to be maintained is normally entered there. The next step returned after CREATE should be SELECT so that the newly entered value can be selected and then displayed.
10. APP1, APP2, APP3
If further pushbuttons are introduced in the hit list with function module F4UT_LIST_EXIT, these timepoints are introduced. They are accessed when the user presses the corresponding pushbutton.
Note: If the F4 help is controlled by a collective search help, the search help exit of the collective search help is called at timepoints SELONE and RETTOP. (RETTOP only if the user selects a value.) At all other timepoints the search help exit of the selected elementary search help is called.
If the F4 help is controlled by an elementary search help, timepoint RETTOP is not executed. The search help exit of the elementary search help is called at timepoint SELONE (at the

Search help for custom fields added through BADI_FDCB_SUBBAS04

Hi guys
I have two cutom fields on basic data screen that i have added using an implementation of the BADI
BADI_FDCB_SUBBAS04
I want to use the value entered in one of the fields as a import parameter in another fiields search help. On value request the structure INVFO contains the other data entered on screen in the basic data screen however my custom fields appear empty.
However if i press enter and request values again the search help will pop up correctly. Is there a way i can avoid having to press enter before i can get my values??

Hi guys
I have not found any notes/texts regarding my issue however i think with some user training/re-orientation the small issue will go away.
