Multiple Selection of Search Help

Hi Guys,
I've read SAP's note that:
Multiple selections in the search options is not supported when you use the search help control. If you need these selections, you can also use the list mode SAP GUI for HTML:
Select the 'Help->Settings ->F4 Help' menu option to access the dialog box where you must then choose 'In modal R/3 dialog box' as the display option.
However, this setting is only user-specific. Is it possible to make it system-specific? i.e. enable it for all users?
THanks,
Zhenmin

Hello ZhenMin,
Yes, you can make it the system default or change it for all users by doing the following:
1. to make "Dialog (modal)" the system default go to SU52, Parameters and then add parameter name "F4METHOD" with a value of "NoActiveX"
2. to change the value for the current users go to table USR05 and change the value of the field "F4METHOD" to "NoActiveX".

Search help multiple selection of search results

Hi,
I have a search help (SE11) and it is correctly integrated in my WDP4A application using 'automatic' search help integration. Unfortunately multiple selection of search results does not seem to be supported (the ok button greys out when >1 result is selected). Is there a standard way to link a search help to an attribute in a 0..n value node, so that at runtime a new context element is created for each selected search result? Or do I have to recreate the search help from scratch to get this behaviour (OVS)?
If the latter is true, then why is it even possible to select multiple search results?
Kind regards,
Jeroen

Hallo Jeroen,
OVS standard configuration does not allow you to select more than one configuration, You need to specify that explicitely on Phase-0 of OVS using the set_configuration method.

Date selection and search help component in jsp

Hi all:
    In sap portal jsp development enviorment, is it possible to easily program the date selection and search help ( just look like search help in webdynpro ) ?

Hello Jianhong,
the easiest way to set a value help is using HTMLB component in your JSP.
To do it, use next code:
<hbj:inputField
           id="DateInputField"
           type="date"
           showHelp="TRUE"
           ... other attributes
/>
Before using HTMLB components in your JSP, don't forget to add this line to your page:
<%@ taglib uri= "tagLib" prefix="hbj" %>
regards.

Possibility for multiple selection in F4 help

Hi,
at the moment I have to change the marketing attributes in PCUI. We need a functionality that allows us to select multiple values in the F4 help and depending on the amount of selected values the amount of entries for marketing attributes will be generated.
Is there a possibility to realise a multiple selection in F4 helps?
What needs to be done?
Would be great if you could help me.
Kind regards,
Timo

Hi Naveen,
thanks for your help. Just to be sure, I meant a standard simple F4 help using F4_main.do. Is it somehow possible to change it there for one specific F4 help or do I need to develop a complete new BSP application for it? The BSP application I'm talking about is not a custom developped application but generated through F4_main.do
Kind regards,
Timo

Multiple Selection in Search Result List in PCUI

Hi,
Our requirement is to allow creation of new records in list view of the PCUI application CRMM_ACCOUNT. I'm using old floor plan CRM 4.0 to meet this requirement. But this is causing a problem. It's not allowing multi select in the search result list (Event INIT, Screen Element SRMS). If I change the screen element to SRME, it allows multiple selection (thru selection checkboxes) but does not allow creation of new records in list view.
Also, how to activate the multi-valued search on certain fields. I've already checked the "Multi-Value" check box for the relevant field.
Any help on this will be much appreciated.
Regards,
Vishal

Thanks ! it's helpful! But my requirement is a little bit different. (Sorry I didn't make it clear)
I created a table maintenance (SM30) for a table. The F4 Search help should be applied to a field of the table when a user creates a new entry. I hope it makes clear.
btw: I have awarded some points! Because it's also good to know some other ways:)

Multiple Selection in F4 help

Unlike BSP, WebDynpro have a very nice integration of F4 helps from DDIC.
I wonder if F4 helps also support multiple selection.
So, can the user select multiple lines in the result list, and transfer all back to the calling screen?
How can I switch this on in the F4 help? By setting the cardinality of the context node?
How is the selection transferred back to the calling screen?
Must there be a table with multiple editable lines, into which the selected elements are transferred? Or can retrieve the selected elements programmatically?

Hi daniel ,
You can do your requirement in one more way by implementing the Search help exits .
For eg :
Search Help PREM will give the list of Employee , but you want only the employee with the status 'Active ' in this case you can create a serch help exit .
Create seach help exit.
Take z copy of Function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE .
Declare all the Parameters "see some example by using where used list
inside that FM you can find the piece of coding . uncommend thePerform and write your logic inside the perform
IF CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'SELECT'.
   PERFORM STEP_SELECT TABLES RECORD_TAB SHLP_TAB
                       CHANGING SHLP CALLCONTROL RC. " write your logic in this perform
   IF RC = 0.
     CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'DISP'.
   ELSE.
     CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'EXIT'.
   ENDIF.
    EXIT. "Don't process STEP DISP additionally in this call.
ENDIF.
For formatting your Result internal table . pass your final int table to below mention FM
*Formating the result table
CALL FUNCTION 'F4UT_RESULTS_MAP'
* EXPORTING
*   SOURCE_STRUCTURE         =
*   APPLY_RESTRICTIONS       = ' '
TABLES
    SHLP_TAB                 = p_shlp_tab
    RECORD_TAB               = p_record_tab
    SOURCE_TAB               = LT_PA0002   " Final internal table
CHANGING
    SHLP                      = p_shlp
    CALLCONTROL              = P_CALLCONTROL
EXCEPTIONS
   ILLEGAL_STRUCTURE        = 1
   OTHERS                   = 2

Hiding Hit list popup and getting multiple values in Search help

Hi,
I have a special requirement where I am using a search help for filtering data. My requiremetn is the data which I am getting in Hit list popup, I want all that data in a internal table for further processing also I dont want that hit list popup. Is there any method or something which can be used in search help exit to hide the hit list popup dialog and returning all the records which is fetchec in the record_tab.
Thanks
Tanmaya
Edited by: Tanmaya31 on Dec 16, 2011 6:52 AM

Hi,
I dont think you can make thru search help. Instead, I can advise you:
Instead of using a search help for multiple selection, have a button placed at the table control, so that once you press that, you get the desired values(just as in SH) in an ALV display. Then you can make multiple selection and call the table control again and pass the values to the internal table used for the table control, so that the table is filled with the desired values.
Hope this helps you.

Multiple selection in F4 help in table control

Hi,
I am providing F4 help for a particular field in the table control. User must be able to select multiple values from this F4 help this is done using the function module F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST. Now the selected fields have to be transferred to screen, this is done using FM DYNP_VALUES_UPDATE.
My problem is i have 6 rows displayed in my table control. So only first 6 values from the user selected values are getting updated in my screen fields others are not getting updated. Say if the user selects 10 values out of them only 6 is populating in the screen. How do i get the others also? Please help.
Thanks,
Karthik

Hi,
Check the Following threads
can we select multiple entries from a F4 result?
Table Control dynamic F4
After you select Multiple rows from F4 Help these are stored in RETURN table.
Now in main program modify the Internal Table.
In PAI
loop at itab.
" You can not handle this in this Loop
endloop.
module modify_from_f4
process on value-request
field fname module get_f4 " Here you get the F4 Help and the values are in RETURN tab
in Program
module modify_from_f4.
" in this module you can use the RETURN TAB like
loop at itab
read table RETURN with key fnam = itab-fnam " and get the corresponding value and modify itab from RETURN tab
if you can not find common fields and just want to pass the values then
read table RETURN INDEX SY-TABIX. " IF the Itab is empty then follow below loop
endloop.
loop at return.
move return-fieldvalue to itab-fnam
append itab.
endloop.
endmodule.

Select-Options search help with where

Hi Experts,
I need to have a search help in my selection screen with a Where clause.
I've tried to search it but I cant find answers.
The logic is like this, wherein the search help for my selection screen should just have the value PM001 and ZMIS.
SELECT-OPTIONS stsma estat tj30 FOR s_eqpstt FOR tj30t-estat WHERE stsma = 'PM001' and stsma = ZMIS.
Thanks

Sorry, a little more detail... create a view, of search help type, with the columns you present and restrict those two values. Then create the search help with that view. Then add the search help to the select-option.

Edgar

Selection screen - search help with dynamic sql query

hey ,
is it possible to change the search help of the selection field ?
when i create the range table i put a data element :
create a range table that consists of this new data element
LT_RANGE_TABLE = WD_THIS->M_HANDLER->CREATE_RANGE_TABLE( I_TYPENAME = 'S_CARR_ID' ).
can i control the search help via the the data element or by other methods ?
i want that when the user press F4 the values that will show is the result of a sql query that i will write .
is it possible ?
thanks
ASA.

Hi,
yes it is possible...
This is my test code for say personal number select options...
lt_range_table = wd_this->m_handler->create_range_table(

add a new field to the selection

I_NO_INTERVALS = abap_true
it_result = lt_range_table
i_read_only = read_only ).
do the following:
1) copy the std function module: F4IF_SHLP_EXIT....to ZF4IF_SHLP_EXIT_pernr (in my case i am testing for pernr so my fm
name is like that....obviously it can be anything you want...under the recommended naming convention)
2) look for "STEP SELECT"
STEP SELECT    (Select values)
3)write the code as follows:
"NOTE: this is my testing code...but you can build your logic on it....
IF CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'SELECT'.
types: begin of zpri_listing,
pernr type PERSNO,

data itab type standard table of Zpri_LISTING.

    ENDIF.
    EXIT. "Don't process STEP DISP additionally in this call.
ENDIF.
4) save and activate this function module...
5) go to se11 and create "Elementary srch hlp"....
6) fill out all the necessary fields...i am assuming that you already know how to create the search helps...
look for this field: "Search help exit" and put your function name which you created in the above steps...
in this example i have: ZF4IF_SHLP_EXIT_pernr....
7) create and activate the search help....
hope this helps...i just tested this and it is working for me....

Selection Screen search help values based on condition

Hi All,
I am developing this report for HR.And the requirement is in one of the selection screen field the
value's should be appeared(when f4) based on some condition,ie not all values should come.
My field is HRP1001-sobid,here there are many values,they dunt want all that to be shown when user
tries to input the values(F4).And also i need to show the Text for this field(department name) in
search help.
Can anyone please guide...
Thanks in advance.

Hi Salz
You can code your own search help procedure for this. To achieve this, first you should add the block:
<u>e.g.</u>
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE REQUEST FOR p_sobid.
Within this block you can use the standard FM "<b>RH_OBJID_REQUEST</b>" to call the standard HR help list for objects conditionally.
