Need exit help

Hi experts,
I need to put a default value of 3 months for the posting date variable in one query.
Could someone help me on this?
if i_step = 1.
    l_s_range-low = ?
    l_s_range-high = ?
    l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
    l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
    append l_s_range to e_t_range.
  endif.
here high value should the last day of the current month (july 31st ) and low value should be the first day of the previous 3 months (may 01st).
Thanks,
Sathya

Hi Sathya,
Please find below code. It works as per your requirement.
WHEN 'ZCALDAY'.    " Customer Exit variable on 0CALDAY
  IF i_step = 2.
     data: c_DATE type sy-datum,
           L_DATE type sy-datum,
    v_date type sy-datum,
    z_date type sy-datum.
      LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range WHERE vnam = 'ZCALDAY'.   " User entry date on 0CALDAY
        IF sy-subrc = 0.
          CLEAR: l_s_range.
********************** CODE TO CALCULATE - l_s_range-low ***************************
CONCATENATE SY-DATUM+0(6) '01' into zdate.
CALL FUNCTION 'RP_CALC_DATE_IN_INTERVAL' (********FM WILL SUBTRACT 3 MONTHS FROM CURRENT DATE)

    DAYS = 0
    MONTHS = '03'
    SIGNUM    = '-'

            ENDIF.
  l_s_range-low = v_date.

  • Screen exit help is needed for SCASE development

    Dear forum,
    I need your help to find a possible screen exit for the SCASE transaction. I want to add custom fields in the standard SAP screen since we want to have more fields here than standard. I have identified the program and package as follows:
    Transaction: SCASE
    Program: SAPLSRMCLFRM2
    Package: SCMG_GENERAL
    Can you please help me on how to find a screen exit for this?
    I would really appriciate all help I can get, many thanks in advanced!
    // Par

    Hello again,
    I have seemed to found the following BADI: SCMG_CASE_FCODE_S - Case Frontend: Non-standard Pushbutton
    The documentation states the following:
    This BADI is called if a function code was triggered that s not implemented by the standard of the case.
    This is true if the pushbutton is customer- or application-specific.
    You can create your own pushbutton in the table SCMGFUNCTION by using the maintenance view SCMGV_FUNCTION. If you do so, pay attention to the customer namespace in the table.
    In this table you can control exactly when the pushbutton is active The function code is the processed in this BAdI
    If I now want to create a subscreen with new custom fields and add that as a pushbutton option on the standard screen of transaction SCASE, what would be the next steps to take?
    Best regards, Par

  • Need your help in Remodeling concept

    Hi Gurus need your help in time estimations
    I have a cube with data and now I need to add 10 new info objects to the cube which are including Date fields (BUDAT, BLDAT) these 10 fields will be populated to the cube from a Z table in ECC as we donu2019t have these fields in the cube we have to go for remodeling of the cube
    My client requires how much time it will take to complete this
    Now I want to know how much time it would take to do this (if any customer exits and user exits are required) and addition if new fields will have any effect on the current queries
    Please advice in this
    Thank you

    The time taken will depends on a lots of factor like server speed, available memory, background jobs etc. Apart from this, the time will also depends on how much the cube is filled i.e. the no. of records in the cube. Its very abstract to tell you the exact time taken for this. But, please make sure that you have the backup of the cube which you are going to re-model. T0 say, I think 3-4 hours should be ok for the remodelling.
    Thanks.

  • 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

    Hi Pradeep,
    Please have a look into the below site which might be useful
    Enhancing a Standard Search Help
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/daeda0d7-0701-0010-8caa-
    edc983384237

    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
    F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE
    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.
    The module must react with an immediate EXIT to all steps that it does not know or does not want to handle.
    Hope this info will help you.

    You can't really believe that his brother did this
    for him...I did miss that copyright line at the beginning when
    I first looked it over, but you know, if it had been
    his brother, I'd be kinda impressed. This wasn't a
    25 line program. It actually would have required
    SOME thought. I doubt my brother woulda done that
    for me (notwithstanding the fact that I wouldn't need
    help for that program, and my brother isn't a
    programmer).I originally missed the comments at the top but when I saw the complexity of what was written then I knew that it was too advanced for a beginner and I relooked through the code and saw the comments.

  • I need heed help for Handle the JButton

    hi, guys
    I am writing a small program
    It has name and number field.

    are you trying to load a multi line textfile int a JTextField? If you try to load this in a while loop as you read the file, it will zoom through the file, and you will probably only see the last line of the file (or nothing if the last line is blank) in the jtextfield. Consider using a JTextArea or some other component that can hold multiple lines. Also your file reading method calls look wrong to me. You appear to read a line, then continually check if that one read line is null, and if not do a while loop, that looks to loop forever. Look at the java I/O examples for how to do this right.
    Good luck

    Hi Hari,
    I think that the logic needs to be build up in the DISP part of the Search help exit.
    What you can do is also get the Plant in the search help as an export parameter.
    Then in the Return Tab you can check if the plant = 'AA', delete the data.
    e.g.
          LOOP AT record_tab.
            IF RECORD_TAB-STRING+22(2) = '90'.
              DELETE record_tab INDEX sy-tabix.
            ENDIF.
          ENDLOOP.
    Hope this helps.

  • BADI/Exit help for FI-CFM

    Hello Everyone,
    How r u guys? I need some help in BADI/User Exit. I am working on FI - CFM. There is a transaction with TCode- TS01 (Create Securities) / TS04 (settle securities).
    I need a BADI/Exit which gets activated when the user clicks on the save button. I tried to locate them but couldnt find anything suitable. I emailed sap and they told me that there is a BADI - FTR_CUSTOMER_EXTENT which I
    could use to solve my problem. I did try that and wrote a code in that badi;s EVT_TRANSACTION_SAVE_CHECK method.
    But unfortunately when i clicked on save button the badi didnt run. I am in a fix as to what do I do ? The system I am working on is a bit old its SAP R3 4.7C. In that I created a Z badi implementation and embeded the original
    badi definition and wrote code and activated everything.
    Either the badi I am using (which sap guys told) isnt correct or something. Can anyone guide me as to whats the next step.
    Thanks,
    JG

    Hi,
               To add a new custom tab in TM_XX transactions you have to follow these steps:
    1. (SE80) Create a dynpro as SUBSCREEN, with the structure (fields, tablecontrols...) you want in the new tab, located in a modul-pool.
    Example: Program: ZCFM001
    Dynpro: 1010
    2. (SE18) Create your custom implementation of BADI FTR_CUSTOMER_EXTENT. This will create a Z class where you can program the new tab management.
    Example: Implementation: ZAMPLIACIOTM001
    Class: ZCL_IM_AMPLIACIOTM001
    3. (SE24) Implement method EVT_APPLICATION_START of your new class. This method is called when the transaction is going to be painted, and manages (among other things) which tabs need to be shown. In general terms, you will have to assign your dynpro to a function code.
    This BADI offers you 2 custom function codes, and so, the ability to add two custom tabs. These function codes are OPEN_TRTM_CUST_01 and OPEN_TRTM_CUST_02.
    To add your dynpro to a function code, you have to identify this relationship in the internal table (parameter) PC_TAB_BADI_TABS. This is the table that contains the custom tabs to be added.
    To do this, you have to add the following piece of code:
    DATA: LS_BADI_TABS TYPE FTROP_BADI_SUBSCREEN.
    4.1. Modify the tab structure.
    LS_BADI_TABS-REPID = ZCFM001. "Report
    LS_BADI_TABS-TEXT_TAB = 'New Tab'. "Text (max. 30 CHAR) to display
    LS_BADI_TABS-DYNNR = '1010'. "Subscreen
    4.2. Add the new tab.
    MODIFY PC_TAB_BADI_TABS
    FROM LS_BADI_TABS
    TRANSPORTING REPID DYNNR TEXT_TAB
    WHERE FCODE = 'OPEN_TRTM_CUST_01'.
    And that's it! Now you will be able to see you new tab in these transactions.
    I hope this helps you.

  • Complete Java n00b...need some help

    I'm very new to Java and I need some help writing a basic program.
    I need to write a program that lets the user add up an infinite amount of floating point numbers. The program should compute the sum of all the numbers entered thus far. So for example if the user enters 2 and 3, it should give a number of 5. If the user then enters 4, I should give me 9 etc.
    I'm not really sure how to get started on writing that. I can add up two numbers but I don't know how to tell the program to keep adding additional numbers to that sum. Can someone please help me out? thanks

    It's ok... it can be hard to understand even the simplest concepts with only text and no help.
    There needs to be an int variable outside (before) the loop initialized to 0.
    float num = 0;Next, you need to have an infinite loop that requests floats to add onto the number.
    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    while (true) {
        float toAdd = input.nextFloat();
        num += toAdd;
        System.out.println("Current sum " + num);
    }Putting all this together and putting it into a main method will work, but we have a bit of an issue. The program won't stop! For that reason, we need to specify a number which can exit the program. I like to use 0 for this purpose.
    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    while (true) {
        float toAdd = input.nextFloat();
        if (toAdd == 0) {    //test if toAdd is 0 so the program can break;
            break;
        num += toAdd;
        System.out.println("Current sum " + num);
    }So, this code will work:
    import java.util.Scanner;
    class AddNumbers {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            float num = 0;
            Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
            while (true) {
                float toAdd = input.nextFloat();
                if (toAdd == 0) {    //test if toAdd is 0 so the program can break;
                    break;
                num += toAdd;
                System.out.println("Current sum: " + num);

  • Need huge help on my router WRT120 N thanks

    Hi, new here, really needed some help regarding my Linksys router WRT 120 N, which i bought not too long ago. Long story short, had it for ps3 online and it worked terrific, tried to get it too connect with the 360 and a disaster. 
    My idea was too uninstall anything Linksys has and then reinstall the same router. I figured that way i could go back to the previous settings before i tinkered with them for the 360, and just start fresh with a new SSID and have an easier time that way. So i tried, a number of times, but everytime i do, it says the program/router is already installed, leaving me with little to no idea what to do to get it back to workign with the ps3, let alone ever trying for the 360.
    By the way, as you may tell, im pretty much tech illiterate, didnt grow up around it and now that i have it, it confuses me quite alot. I feel most comfortable just figuring out how to uninstall it, that is my preference, but if some one knows how i can fix it without doing that and getting my 360 and ps3 online with it,  would also appreciate that. I migth not understand lingo, but im very driven to get this over with, i have been pulling my hair out for  hours trying with my very limited knowledge.
    Again, any help and all help is so so very appreciated, thank you so much in advance.
    If you need any other information, please dont hesistate to ask me.

    Before using the setup program again, you will need to reset your router to factory defaults.
    To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
    1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
    2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
    3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
    5) Power down the router.
    6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
    7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
    9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
    10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
    If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
    If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is likely dead. Report back with this problem
    If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. Report back with this problem.
    If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
    Please let me know how things turn out for you.

  • Absolue beginner need your help with basics of shell / applescript and xode

    Guys,
    I'm an absolute beginner in both xcode and applescript trying to wrap a few shell commands with some basic graphical elements.
    I will need your help after 2 days of tests and un-successful trials.
    Trying to display "$ifconfig en0" shell results into a text box.
    Here is what I'm doing:
    property networkif : missing value
    property dhcpview : missing value
    set the dhcpview to do shell script "/sbin/ifconfig " & networkif
    I can't have this accepted:
    set contents of text field "hmmm" to "DHCP " & dhcpview
    hmm is the name I have set under Interface Builder to a text box (NSTextView object)
    Xcode compiler returns me an error :
    ToolAppDelegate.applescript:99: error: A “"” can’t go after this identifier. (-2740)
    Command /usr/bin/osacompile failed with exit code 1
    while doing this is absolutely working but on a separate popup window:
    display dialog " Here is your IP address in ALU's network: " & dhcpview
    I have no clue what I'm doing wrong.

    It looks like you are trying to use *AppleScript Studio* syntax in an AppleScriptObjectiveC project - the way you connect the user interface items to your script is different in the new framework. If you are creating a new ASOC project, take a look at MacScripter's entry level tutorial AppleScriptObjC in Xcode for some examples.

    Remote App on iPad connects but drops after about  20 mins. Need to turn  off wait about 1 minute, then turn on wifi on iMac before it can reconnect. Need some help please.
    Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

    This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
    I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
    Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
    Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
    Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
    Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
    Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
    It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
    Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
    Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
    Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
    Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

  • Need your help on performance issue please

    Hello everyone!
    I need your help to understand an effect I notice with a Thread class I built. I currently work on enhancement of my application Playlist Editor (see http://www.lightdev.com/page74.htm) and a new release will be available soon.
    Among other extensions the new release will have a title filter function which is based on audio data that is recursively read from ID3 tags of files found in a given root directory. The data collection is done by a CollectionThread class which reads into a data model class AudioDataModel and the entire process works fine, no problem with that.
    However, when my application is started for the first time the CollectionThread runs approximately 3 minutes to collect data from approximately 4300 audio files on an Intel Pentium M 1,4 GHz, 512 MB RAM, Windows XP SP2. When the application is shut down and started again, it takes only a few seconds to do the same task for all subsequent launches.
    I already tried to start the application with java option -Xms40m to increase initial heap size. This increases performance in general but the effect is still the same, i.e. first run lasts significantly longer than subsequent runs.
    I also tried to build a pool mechanism which creates many empty objects in the data model and then releases them to contain the actual data at is being read in but this did not lead to better performance.
    It must have to do with how Java (or Windows?) allocates and caches memory. I wonder whether there is a way to pre-allocate memory or if there are any other ideas to improve performance so that the process always only takes seconds instead of minutes?
    I attach the key classes to this message. Any help or ideas is much appreciated!
    Thanks a lot a best regards
    Ulrich
    PS: You can use the news subscription service at
    http://www.lightdev.com/dynTemplate.php4?id=80&dynPage=subscribe.php4 to be informed when the new release of Playlist Editor is available.
    All classes posted here do not need debugging, they already have proven to run error free. The classes are only posted for information for the interested reader - no need to go through all the stuff in detail - only if it interests you.
    My application calls class CollectionThread wich is a subclass of InfoThread. CollectionThread recursively goes through a directory and file structure and stores found ID3 tag information in instances of class ID3v11Tag which in turn gets stored in one instance of class AudioDataModel. All classes are shown below.

    Hi Franck,
    thank you, mate. I did what you suggested (changed class attached) but that did not change the mentioned behaviour.
    The first run is approximately 75 seconds with Java option -Xms40m and approx. double without, the second run and all subsequent runs are only 2-3 seconds each (!!!) even when terminating and re-starting the application between thread runs.
    I'm pretty clueless about that, any more help on this anyone?
    Thanks a lot and best regards
    Ulrich
    PS: BTW, I forgot to post the class that is filled with data by class CollectionThread, so here it is
