Problem creating a hybrid collective search help for werks,bukrs and ekorg

Hi All,
I have to create a collective search help for Org_key field of a custom table.
This org_key field is a char4 field and can hold the value for plant , bukrs and ekorg.
I need to create a collective search help which includes
C_T001                          Collective Search Help for BUKRS (Company Code)
H_T001W_NEW     Possible Entries for Plants
H_T024E                         Input Help for Purchasing Organization
I have added org_key field in the field description , how can i do the parameter assigment ( or declare the field description ) so that if the user press F4 for org_key field ,he is able to see all the search paths corresponding to C_T001,H_T001W_NEW, and H_T024E simultaneously, and corresponding to value chosen ( for plant , werks or ekorg ) the value is passed back to the org_key field.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Anurag

Problem resolved. You can hard code values, like the domain name within the search help.
Although I have found that if you don't use a search help and you have domain values then your drop-down list values will be automatically populated from the domain values for the field. At least in my dynpro it does.

Find collective Search Help for partner function at runtime

Hi experts,
I have a screen very similar to VF05. When I enter the partner function, the corresponding field for the partner function, I want a collective search help to open.
If I enter the partner function - Employee responsible, then the search help PERM has to be called or for partner function Payer, I want the search help DEBI to be called. Can anyone let me know how can I get the related partner functions, without hardcoding for every partner function. Something similar to the VF05 report.
Warm Regards,

Hi,
Collective search helps:- Combination of elementary search helps. When we need to fetch data based on multiple selection criteriau2019s. More than one tables are Selection from multiple tables
Steps for creating collective search help.
1) Enter the search help name and click on create.
2) Choose Collective search help radio button option as the search help type.
3) Enter the search help parameters.
Note that there is no selection method to be entered for a collective search help.
4) Instead of the selection method, we enter the included search helps for the collective search help.
5)We need to assign parameters for each of the included search helps.
6) Complete the parameter assignment by clicking on the push button.
7) Collective search help offers the user to obtain F4 help using any of the included search helps.
Hope this helps u.
thanks

Search Help for Account ID and Employee

Hi,
I have a requirement like this:
I have a custom field: Escalation To. For this, I need to provide F4 help which shows Employees and Account ID (ex: Sold to Party/Bill to etc).
So, I used the component - BP_HEAD_SEARCH. However the problem is : In this, I have chosen the filed role - as Employee and clicked on search. But it is not showing all the employees.
And when I used the component - BP_EMPL_SEARCH, it is showing all the employees. I don't know, what is wrong with this.
Could you please help me out for this? How can I provide F4 help which works for both Employees and all other BP's
Thanks,
Sandeep

Hello Glenn,
Thanks for the reply.
Let me rephrase my question.
Account ID is already there as a search field. But I want to add F4 search help for this field.
So when the user hits F4 key, the system should display the 'BUPA' search help so that user can search for the BP number by name, zip code etc.
So I want to attach the search help 'BUPA' to the 'Account ID' field in the screen.
Can you please let me know how to do that?

Change Default choice of Elimentary search help in Collective Search Help

Hi All,
This might be very odd one but i am faced with such a requirement.
In collective search help for eg in MM02 for material we click on a F4 for material master and it gives the list of various search help. By default the last selected elimentary search help will be selected.
My requirement is that by default only the first search help has to be displayed.
Any idea on how this can be achieved.
Regards,
G

Hi NabheetMadan,
I am aware of the concept of search help exit. What i am looking for is how to influence the choice of default search help in the exit.

Custom search help for a custom field in SRM 7

EDIT: I'm gonna clarify on this thread since my first post wasn't explicative enough... thanks for the patience
Hi all gurus,
the question is about a search help in SRM7 but since the task is about abap development, I guess this is the right section to ask for.
Shortly; every purchase doc in our SRM7 has a custom header table which contains data which are retrieved from the connected backends. In this custom table, the user has the opportunity to add manually a line, and for a specific input field in table, we have to define a search help which should retrieve the appropriate possible values w.r.t. the "target" backend for the document.
A bit of technical data: say the field is called ZZ_R3_ROLE; it's included in a custom structure ZR7_HEADER_CST_GEN which is itself an append for BBP_PDHCF.
I defined a Search Help for that field and the corresponding exit FM to manage our task.
Unfortunately, to retrieve the possible values for the specific backend I need some informations like:
- the backend on which the document will be distributed;
- the process type of the document.
This means that my search help should take into account additional informations that comes from the document I'm processing; I don't know what's the "clean" solution to do this.
I've seen on an old system (a SAP SRM 3.0) a workaround based on IMPORT/EXPORT ... TO MEMORY ID has been used. Actually, I'd like to find a more elegant solution, if any.
So... as you can see, I'm absolutely a newbie on the argument, but since I can trigger the search help only from a purchase document (PO, contract) process, I should need at least the GUID of the document to retrieve, for example, what's the target backend for that document in order to provide proper values.
Any hint/suggestion and in particular, a sketch of code as example is welcome.

Hi,
into your modify view,
extract data you need in your search help in an itab (do it into a class do not perform select directly into modify view) and then bind it as value help to your WD element.

Problem with custom search help for std SD_DEBI

Hi,
I have created a custom zcustom search help and included in std search help SD_DEBI.
In the custom serach help i have added the fields ktokd and sales area fields(sales org, Disb channel, division).
now when i goto va01 transaction and hit F4 for sold to party i was able view the KTOKD and sales area fields in the custom tab
when i select the values from f4 help and hit enter they are not getting displayed in sold to party field.
when i select only sales area fields from f4 and press enter they are getting displayed in sold to party field.
problem is with the ktokd field that i have included.
Any suggestions please let me know

Hi deepti,
I think you have missed parameter assignment from your Z append search help to standard search help.
Select the search help and click on Param Assignment button and assign the refernece parameter(KUNNR) of your
append search help to std collective search help (KUNNR).
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

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.
