Problem in search help field clear

Hi,
I have two customised screen fields for these i created search helps through FM F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST.one is type and another one is subtype.If i select a type then corresponding subtypes will be displayed for subtype field.for this iam maintaining a table with these two fields.i have one blank value for subtype.my problem is if select a type, then i go for subtype if i choose a value it's displaying propely.After that if i select a blank value for subtype it's not replacing the value with blank.it's showing previous value.Here iam sending the code too.
MODULE ONVALUE_REQUEST_ZZINSSUBTYPE1 INPUT.
REFRESH: GT_ZZINSSUBTYPE,
           GT_RETURN1.
clear ekko-zzinssubtype1.
SELECT ZZINSTYPE ZZINSSUBTYPE FROM ZINS_DATA INTO TABLE GT_ZZINSSUBTYPE
                                      WHERE ZZINSTYPE = EKKO-ZZINSTYPE1.

Hi,
Try with this
call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
    exporting
      retfield        = 'ZTABLE5-HEADER_NAME'
      dynpprog        = sy-repid

Problem with search help and date fields

Dear experts,
I have two text fields and to each i assigned cacs_calendar search help.
It works well normally but if i make text box output only then i cannot select date.
I want that text box in its disabled form can be used to select date from cacs_calendar search help
that i assigned.User should not provide manual input which means fiedls should be otherwise listed in grey.

Hi Aditya
If a I/P output field is provided an attribute as output only and though search help is provided , the values in the search help list will also be in read-only mode and u cannot select them at all, may be you can solve ur problem thru different approach.
when a manual entry is done with wrong value which is not present in F4 help/search help list and
execution is done SAP will by default throw error saying invalid value

Problem in Search Help Exit

Hi Experts,
I have aproblem in Search help Exit. I have added tab to the standard search help by creating elemntry search help and assigned that search help to standard search help. I am calling function module for search help exit. I dont have any selection method.
I am getting the epected results by using the funtion module F4UT_RESULTS_MAP. This funtion module displays all the results list. My only problem i have is when i select the value from the results list the value is not populating in to the field.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4UT_RESULTS_MAP'
    TABLES
      shlp_tab          = shlp_tab
      record_tab        = record_tab

    EXCEPTIONS
      illegal_structure = 1
      OTHERS            = 2.
The callcontrol-step = 'RETURN'.

F4 functionality not available for a Search help field

Dear All,
I have created one search help ZMVGR1 containing :
1) MATNR
2) VKORG
3) VTWEG
4) MVGR1
Selection Method: MVKE
Dialog type: Display value with restriction.
Field               iMPORT   EXPORT    LPOS   SPOS
MATNR                               X             4
VKORG              X              X             1            1
VTWEG              X              X             2            2
MVGR1              X              X             3            3
First I will put VKORG, VTWEG and MVGR1 on screen and then fetch all the fields based on the selection criteria. The problem is on the screen, F4 help for MVGR1 is not coming, for VKORG and VTWEG it is showing. Also while testing in SE11, after filling i parameters when I am pressing F4 help on any other field., F4 on MVGR1 is coming but F4 on field for which I pressed does not come. At a time out of 3 only two F4 comes. Can anybody tell me how to resolve it. Is it a standard SAP functionality or is there any way to bypass it. I need F4 for all the fields in import parameters, so that all the values gets displayed in export parameters in list. Also note that dialog type is display value with restriction , not display value immediately.
Regards
Debopriyo

Solved. I added one search help exit and inserted the following code after that F4 for all the field are coming in the dialog screen.
field-symbols: <shlp1> type SHLP_DESCR,
               <shlp2> type ddshiface.
IF CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'PRESEL'.
ASSIGN SHLP TO <SHLP1> .
READ TABLE <SHLP1>-INTERFACE assigning <shlp2> with key f4field = 'X'.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    <shlp2>-f4field = ' '.
endif.
ENDIF.

Hi problem with search help?

Hi friends,
               i am creating a search help for one of my inputout field of name Zabc-Formno present in my screen.
If have created a search help ZSH and assigned for that input/output field. Search help is working. My problem is in input/output field when i select a option from search help it is taking, here i want to display the details of the selcted field when i click display so the select statement tht i wrote is -
when 'display'
SELECT * FROM ZABC WHERE FORMNO = SLNO.
                    DATES = ZABC-DATES.
                    CLIENT = ZABC-CLIENT.
In place of FORMNO in select statement actually i am having (ZABC-FORMNO) in this case wht i have to do.
Thks

In your data element for slno, there should be a parameter id set up. If your parameter id is SLNO.
In the program code prior to your select:
GET PARAMETER ID 'SLNO' FIELD v_slno.
SELECT * FROM ZABC WHERE FORMNO = v_slno.

Search Help Field

Hi,
I have included a parameter(CHAR 50), say field X in a search help for field Y (Y shud be selected based on X).
I have attached a search help to X's data element, for providing a drop down.This search help's selection method is a text table for X.
When I select a value from the dropdown for X in the search help, only the first 19 characters are passed to the search help's screen field.
Is there any restriction on the length of the value that can be passed to a search help selection?
Pls let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Arthi.

Hi
Herewith i am giving some points about Search Help and the Data Element.
ATTACHING SEARCH HELP TO A DATA ELEMENT ->
The search help can be used by all screen fields that refer to the data element. All the fields with the same meaning therefore have an identical input help.
When the search help is attached to a data element, an export parameter of the search help must be assigned to the data element. If the user selects a line of the hit list in the input help, the contents of this parameter are returned to the corresponding screen field. It is not possible to return several values when the search help is attached to a data element.
If the parameter assigned to the data element is also an import parameter of the search help, the contents of the search field are used for the value selection if they contain a pattern. Other import parameters of the search field cannot be taken into consideration when the search help is attached to a data element.
Assign a search help=> You can assign the data element a search help. This search help is offered on all the screen fields referring to this data element when the input help (F4 help) is called . To assign the search help, you must specify its Name in the data element maintenance screen and an export parameter of the search help in the Parameter field.
Search Helps =>
The input help (F4 help) is a standard function of the R/3 System. The user can display the list of all possible input values for a screen field with
There are two types of search help:
Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
Screen Display =>
I think you r talking about the 255 character that a screen lengh can take,but more than 255 character also we can dispaly in a screen.

hii naveen,
YOu have to make use of the function modules:
DYNP_VALUES_READ Read screen field values before PAI field transport
DYNP_VALUES_UPDATE Change screen field contents w/o PBO
Each of which is very well documented
or
trigger the drop-down in POV.
PROCESS PAI.
FIELD <FIELD>.
PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
FIELD FIELD MODULE F4HELP_FOR_FIELD.
MODULE F4HELP_FOR_FIELD.
> Call search help: see the fm VRM_* to manage dropdown list
DATA: DYNAME LIKE D020S-PROG,
DYNUMB LIKE D020S-DNUM.
DATA DYNPFIELDS LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF DYNPREAD WITH HEADER LINE.
DYNPFIELDS-FIELDNAME = <other field name>.
DYNPFIELDS-FIELDVALUE = <value>.
APPEND DYNPFIELDS.

Problem in Search Help[F4] - Values Not being Dsplayed

Hi,
Search help values are not being displayed.
F4 help pop up is being displayed with the text on top: ' xxxx number of entries found".
But no values are visible in that popup where it normaly displayes all values for selection. This is happening with all search helps.
Example: I tried for Tcode: ME21, for field Vendor.
=><i>No patch has been applied on Server recently.</i>
Any clue on that..??
Any help is appriciated.
Regards,
Vijay Raheja

Hello Vijay,
This is simple as well.
Go to help then settings and then F4 help. Under system defaults tab strip you will find Display tab strip. Here go to change mode and choose dialog. The other choice will be for control only ( 2 radio buttons only this time around). However to do so make sure you have the authorization object S_ADMI_FCD with value TCTR.
Ask yoru authorization adminstrator to make these changes. He would be having these authorizations. Normally all users dont have this authorization as this is part of security audit considerations.
Please award points if issue got solved.
Regards.

Hide search help fields in webdynpro

Hi,
I have a requirement to hide the search help input fields for a webdynpro field. As it is standard search help, I can't change the search help. What is the best way to hide them ?

Hi,
You can deactivate it at context attribute level by selecting DEACTIVATED or if it is a standard component you can enhance the view to create a post exit for WDDOMODIFYVIEW and hide the search help for that NODE.
Thanks,
Anubhav

Search help Field positions

Hi,
Is it possible to change the field positions in the Hit List of a standard search help without using the access key?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Binu

Hi Binju,
I am not sure whether this will be listed in SPAU during upgrade.
Yes, you didnt require access key to change field positions, add/delete search help parameters which are available in selection method i.e database/view fields for search help.
This change effect the search help assigned to data eleements and tables assigned in SAP, so be caution before doing the change. If your change is specific to a particular instance then go for append search help. Copy the search help and provide this search help as new tab to your standard search help.
Thanks,
Vinay

A student having problem with search help.

Dear All,
I'm studying from a book about search help.
I have a field of a dictionary structure. From now on, I will call this field 'Field A'.
In the book that I read, it is said that if Field A refers to a check table, then the contents of the check table are automatically offered as the Field A's input help. Furthermore, if the check table has a search help, then the search help is used as Field A's input help instead of the key fields of the check table. The search help is also used as input help for any field that refers to the check table I mentioned previously.
Are the last 2 sentences true?
Curiously, I created a dictionary structure of several fields. One of the fields refers to a check table. I also created a simple screen with fields that refer to the dictionary structure I mentioned earlier to test each field's input help. When I tried the field that refers to the check table, it is true that the contents of the check table are offered as the possible values. Later, I created a search help for the check table in a way that makes me easily notice that the search help is actually used as the input help, not the standard input help of check table contents. When I tested my screen again and tested the input help of the field that refers to the check table, the shown possible values were not changed. It still used the standard input help that shows the contents of the check table instead of my search help.
Could I do something wrong or is the statements in my book incorrect?
Regards,
Haris

Dear Suman,
Thank you for the help. However, there are still some doubts in me. To improve tha clarity of my question, I'll rewrite it:
Let 'CT' is the name of my check table.
Currently there are many dictionary objects that refers to CT as their check table. Therefore, the contents of CT are offered as possible values / input help of those dictionary objects.
Later, I created a search help.
Let 'SH' is the name of my search help. SH is attached to the check table CT.
Now, does this means SH is automatically used as the input help of all the dictionary objects that refer to CT as their check table,
Or
I still have to attach SH to all the dictionary objects that refer to CT in order to use SH as their input help?
Regards,
Haris
