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
      source_tab        = lt_export
    CHANGING
      shlp              = shlp
      callcontrol       = callcontrol
    EXCEPTIONS
      illegal_structure = 1
      OTHERS            = 2.
The callcontrol-step = 'RETURN'.
how can i handle this step to populate the select record in the field.
Thanks,

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.

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.

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[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.
=>No patch has been applied on Server recently.
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.
Ruchit.

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

Problem creating Search help

Hi,
I am trying to create a search help for a Z table. I have just given the search help parameters and flagged the input and output parameters for these fields. However when i try to activate the searchhel it throws me an error sayin "Elementary search help without hit list is meaningless". Is this because this is a Z table with Z fields?

You can attach to data-element and to field in table/view definition (tab fields, select field and click on "search help" to change default attachment) - only useful if you want to get another search help that the default one attached to data-element. (look at [Help from the ABAP Dictionary|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/9f/dbaa5435c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm])
If you want that other fields be provided to the search help, define those as input/output parameters of the search help and don't forget to check ddic ref box in the definition of the dynpros.
Regards,
Raymond

Problem on Search Help for select-option

Hi,
Iam working on a search help for select-option,
is there a way to incorporate select-all or multiple
selection on this?
Thanks!

Hi catherine,
1. Just copy paste this program.
(It will POPULATE the SELECT-OPTION,
   based upon
   MULTIPLE Selection,
   selected by the user,
   in the help provided thru F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST.)
2. Eg. is for BUKRS (company code)

DATA : RETURN LIKE TABLE OF DDSHRETVAL WITH HEADER LINE.
SELECT-OPTIONS : BUKRS FOR T001-BUKRS.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR BUKRS-LOW.
PERFORM MYPOPULATE.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR BUKRS-HIGH.
PERFORM MYPOPULATE.
FORM MYPOPULATE.
REFRESH ITAB.
SELECT * FROM T001 INTO TABLE ITAB.
call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
    EXPORTING
      retfield        = 'BUKRS'
      dynprofield     = 'BUKRS'

      value_org       = 'S'
    TABLES
      value_tab       = ITAB
      return_tab      = return.
IF RETURN[] IS NOT INITIAL.
REFRESH BUKRS.
CLEAR BUKRS.
LOOP AT RETURN.
    BUKRS-SIGN = 'I'.
    BUKRS-OPTION = 'EQ'.
    BUKRS-LOW = RETURN-FIELDVAL.

Here is an example of doing a search help in your program. Notice that there is a line of code that is deleting adjacent duplicates from the internal table after retrieving from db. I think you will need to use something like this instead. You can add the field to the ITAB for WERKS and MILLS, get the data from the table, then sort it by WERKS and MILLS, then delete adjacent duplicates then when you throw the F4 help, there will only be one instances of WERKS/MILLS.
report zrich_0001 .
tables: csks.
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
      khinr type csks-khinr,
      end of itab.
select-options s_khinr for csks-khinr no intervals.
initialization.
select khinr from csks into table itab
           where kokrs eq '0010'.
delete adjacent duplicates from itab comparing all fields.
at selection-screen on value-request for s_khinr-low.
call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
       exporting
            retfield    = 'KHINR'
            dynprofield = 'S_KHINR'
            dynpprog    = sy-cprog

Problems with search help for cost assignment

We have recently applied SP 10 to our Dev and QA systems. We have our system set up in such a way that when the user clicks on the binoculars for cost assignments and does a search, they will only see the accounts they are authorized to use (coming from the backend security). This works just fine in Production (without SP10).
But, depending on the test user, I am getting mixed results in our QA system. I have already sent a message to OSS but am hoping someone in this forum can point me in the right direction.
I have searched the forum and found several topics on this issue. But, I was not able to find something that is the same as my problem.
For my test users, they click on the binoculars then click Start. One test user was brought back to the shopping cart without any results. Another test user was given several entries. But, they did not belong to that user.
Can someone please point me in the right direction to get the binoculars working correctly?

Hello,
For First::
In general the CO Area (here: cost center) is derived from R/3 Backend Enterprise
Structure and should be re-determined if another acc. objects is
entered that belongs to a different CO Area. Please also check the
settings in R/3 Backend IMG, path:
->Enterprise Structure ->Assignment ->Controlling
->Assign company code to controlling area
The company code is assigned to the CO Area through the following
assignment:
->Materials Management
->Assign purchasing organization to company code
The CO Area is in general the organizational object in
highest (CO) level. Assignments to other MM/CO objects are located
in lower Enterprise hierarchy level. Hence, the CO Area does not
change if a different CO object of a lower level (here: cost center)
is assigned to a SRM document.
For Second::
The only possibility I see is to set the message to error message in
the customizing in the backend. The message number is KI 170. When you
look at the long text of this message in transaction SE91 in the
backend, you will find the description where to look in the customizing.
When you have set this message to ERROR, then no purchase order will be
created in the backend. Instead the shopping basket gets the status
'ERROR' and the administrator will recieve a work item in his inbox.
Then he can check the backend and either post the purchase orders again
after solving the problem, or he can delete the shopping baskets.
Please check the note for more infos or the documentation.
Setting the message KI 170 to error message will solve your problem.
See note 333136. I would think that if you create
a PO directly in the backend if you do not have the message configured
as and error you will be able to create the PO.
I hope this information helps.
Kind regards,
Gaurav

But, In CRM 7.0, this is not done. I donno whthr it might be the reason..or som thing else.
Please let me know, for defaulting this value, what we need to.
