REPORT_ATTRIBUTE_ERROR_MESSAGE functionality for Input Field & Drop down UI

Hi,
We have requirement to handle error messages. In a data input form, if we get multiple errors we are displaying all errors in a message area. When we click on error message, focus should go to the UI element which causes to the error.
We have used 'CALL METHOD lo_message_manager->report_attribute_error_message' by exporting the element and attribute name. This method works fine incase of Input Field type UI element. When we run the application on DISPLAY action errors are displaying for both fields 'INPUT FIELD' and 'DROPDOWNBYINDEX' . But we have URL on the error related to 'INPUT FIELD' and when we click on error message control/cursor going to the INPUT FIELD.
But we could not find same functionality incase of DropDownbyIndex UI Element.
Please help us to resolve the problem. Does SAP Web Dynpro ABAP provide this functionality?
Below attached written code for reference.
CASE lo_action->name.
      WHEN 'DISPLAY'.
        IF lv_num1 IS INITIAL.
         report message
          CALL METHOD lo_message_manager-report_attribute_error_message

              element                   = lo_el_numbers
              attribute_name            = `NUM1`
            params                    =
            msg_user_data             =

            cancel_navigation         =
            is_validation_independent = ABAP_FALSE
        ENDIF.
        IF lv_age eq '999'.
         report message
          CALL METHOD lo_message_manager-report_attribute_error_message
            EXPORTING
              message_text              = 'Please enter the age'
              element                   = lo_el_personal_info
              attribute_name            = `AGE`
            params                    =

Hi venki,
The problem you have told that when you are displaying the error message for input box and drop down by idx using the report_attribute_error_message. Then you click on the error message raised by input box , the focus goes to the input box but the same thing will not happen with the dropdownbyidx.
I have also try the same this its not working for dropdownbyidx but it is working for dropdownbykey.
You can try this.

How do I get back the functionality for the alphabetical drop down from my previous searches in the center Google search box of the Mozilla Firefox Start Page?

In the afternoon of August 24 I lost a feature on my Mozilla Firefox Start Page and I cannot figure out how to get it back. It concerns the Google Search area in the MIDDLE of the page. Previously, when I would want to do a search, for example Amazon, I would type the letter 'A' and, because I had typed 'Amazon' in that Search box before, an alphabetical drop-down menu would come up with 'Amazon' in it. I could then click on that word without having to type the rest of it. That option is no longer working.
I had done an Adobe Reader update that Friday morning, so I thought that might be why this happened,. I did a System Restore and took the system back to Tuesday, August 21. That did not help.
I ran CCleaner and cleaned the Registry also. Interestingly enough, I found that right after I do that and then open a Mozilla Firefox Start Page, the alphabetical drop down function is back in the center Search bar for one time, one search. After that it is gone again. I go in and do just CCleaner (no Registry cleaning required) and the same thing happens...the functionality is there for one search only.
I went in and made sure all my Add-ons/Plug-ins are up to date. I also ran a full system scan but no issues came up.
I am computer illiterate, so please bear with me. I have no idea if any of the things I tried would have helped or not.
I have Windows 7 and Firefox 15.0.1
I appreciate any help you can provide.

See also:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember search and form history"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Form+autocomplete
The "Use custom settings for history" setting allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting that setting doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings. 
Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made. 
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".

F4 / Help Functionality for input field in custom java iView

Hi,
As we see many F4 help on each input field in a transaction, how can we mimic the same functionality in a Custom Java iView. For example, ME23N, you can search a PO based on some criteria, when i create a new custom java iview using BAPI_PO_DISPLAY, how can provide that F4 or help functionality to the Purchase Order field.
Your help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
the F4 Help functionality is always of big concern when you're switching from a R/3 or ABAP-SAP GUI environment to a webfront end. First of all: the convinience you're used to of creating a seach help and adding it to your data fields is gone, i.e. the current development status in the portal/java/webdynpro implies that you have to do most of the work on your own. Simple value helps might not be a problem, but complex ones are (as the one you've described). Here is a link to a tutorial in Java-webdynpro, maybe it gives you an idea:

Input Masks and Single Choice Fields (drop down menu) Suggestions

Here's a few suggestions - I hope this is the right place to post these...
1. I would like to suggest a pre-filled state single choice field (drop down menu) to be used to get address information. Or better yet a way to import a csv file to fill the preset fields for an option box.
2. Input masks that force users to enter the data in the format you prefer. (000) 000-0000
3. Ability to enable or disable options depending on other choices.
4. Option for a list of numbers say 1 thru 100 and as people pick a registration (car number in my case) that choice cannot be picked again by another user for that form. Load values from a table that can be picked several times or only once could work in both my suggestions.
Thank You.

Hello there,
Thanks for these thoughts! They're all really good (and welcome) suggestions for additions to the FormsCentral service. As you might imagine, we're busily working back here to implement new features; we have big plans for FormsCentral. For these suggestions in particular, I'll do two things:
1. Send these suggestions to the product team and get them added to the to-do list!
2. Move the whole thread here into the FormsCentral Ideas sub-forum. That way, your suggestions will be noted as such and well-documented on our end.
Thanks for the great ideas; let us know if you have any more feedback for us!

Plz anyone get this solved.

Are you saying you have an input field and cannot select text

BTW, setting an input field's selectable property to false
locks the field.

Lenovo T500 battery stays on %100 for awhile then drops down to %99 for no reason

Hi,
The Lenovo T500 battery stays on %100 for awhile then drops down to %99 for no reason. What's up with this and how do I fix this issue? My laptop is really confusing me. The green battery says it's totally charged %100 and the little AC adapter icon in the system tray says "%99 available (plugged in, not charging.")
Thanks,
Liz

Hello Liz,
that is considered to be normal.
It´s bettter for a Li-ion battery not to be charged fully, so the powermanager don´t load the whole time.
That´s why the percentage could drop. But thats not a problem thats a feature.
if your battery handling is set to automatic in powermanager then, eveythings is ok.
Do you use your machine with AC plugged in the whole time?

Using the same field on a form for multiple menu/drop down list

I have a form that tracks people that attend orientations. It is possible for an Attendee to attend the same orientation up to three times.
In using the Update record wizard, I have two recordsets, rsAttendees and rsOrientation from two separate tables.
I want to be able to use the rsOrientation to create a drop down list, but I want to use that same recordset field as the source for the dropdown 3 times on the same record.
There are 3 fields on the Attendee form:
Orientation1, Orientation2, and Orientation3.
Using the wizard, I set each up as a Menu, then select the rsOrientation, Orientation.Date as the source for all 3.
The problem is that only the Orientation1 field is populated. Orientation2 and Orientation3 dropdowns are blank.
Name:________________________
Orientation1: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one works fine
Orientation2: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one is blank
Orientation3: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one is blank
Do I need to reset the rs somehow?

>Do I need to reset the rs somehow?
Very possible. You haven't mentioned what server model you are using.

Search help for input fields in a screen

Hi,
Pls help me
how to set search help property for the I/O fields in screen in se80?
1. do we want to add any property for search help in the property window?
2.do we want to create a MODULE PROCESS ON VALUE REQUEST ?
PLS tell me how to set search for the I/O field in se80?pls tell me the process?
i want to set the search help for more I/O fields in se80 but all the fields belongs to the same table?
can i create a single search for all these fields and use that for all the I/O fields ?
elementary search help or collective search help?
thanks & regards in advance,
vsnl.

Hi,
Input Help on the Screen
Within the Screen Painter, you can define two types of input help:
1. The FIELD statement with one of the additions VALUES or SELECT.
2. Linking a search help directly to a screen field.
If you link a search help directly to a screen field, it overrides the additions of the FIELD
statement. However, the input check [Page 581] functions of the FIELD statement remain
unaffected.
Input Help in Flow Logic
The following input help methods are obsolete and should not be used. They are still supported
for compatibility reasons.
In the screen flow logic, you can specify a value list for a screen field <f> as follows:
FIELD <f> VALUES (<val1>, <val2>,...).
The value list contains a series of single values <vali>. The NOT and BETWEEN additions for the
input check [Page 581] are not appropriate for input help.
You can also create a value list by accessing a database table as follows:
FIELD <f> SELECT *
FROM <dbtab>
WHERE <k1> = <f1> AND <k2> = <f2> AND...
In the WHERE condition, the fields of the primary key <ki> of the database table <dbtab> are
checked against the screen fields <fi>. The WHENEVER addition, used with input checks [Page
581], is not necessary for input help.
If you have used a ABAP Dictionary reference for field <f>, the selection and the hit list formatting
may be affected by any check table attached to the field.
Attaching a Search Help
Search helps from the ABAP Dictionary can be attached to a screen field [Ext.]. To do this, enter
the name of the search help in the corresponding field in the attributes of the screen field in the
Screen Painter. This assigns the first parameter of the search help to the screen field. It is only
possible to place a value from the hit list onto the screen.
Input help on a screen.
REPORT DEMO_DYNPRO_F4_HELP_DYNPRO MESSAGE-ID AT.
DATA: CARRIER(3) TYPE C,
CONNECTION(4) TYPE C.
CALL SCREEN 100.
MODULE CANCEL INPUT.
LEAVE PROGRAM.
ENDMODULE.
The next screen (statically defined) for screen 100 is itself. It has the following layout:
602 April 2001
Cancel
Airline
Flight number
Screen field with search help
Input help in the flow logic
The input fields have been adopted from the program fields CARRIER and
CONNECTION. The function code of the pushbutton is CANCEL, with function type
E. The search help DEMO_F4_DE with the search help parameter CARRID is
assigned to the screen field CARRIER. The search help uses the database table
SCARR.
The screen flow logic is as follows:
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE CANCEL AT EXIT-COMMAND.
FIELD CARRIER VALUES ('AA', 'LH').
FIELD CONNECTION SELECT *
FROM SPFLI
WHERE CARRID = CARRIER
AND CONNID = CONNECTION.
When the user chooses the input help for the individual fields, the following input
help is displayed:
For the Airline field, the search help displays the names of the airlines and places the airline
code in the input field for the chosen line. If the airline code is not one of those listed in the
VALUES list of the screen flow logic, the input check triggers an error message in the PAI
event. So the search help overrides the VALUES addition for the input help, but not for the
input checks. This is therefore not an appropriate place to use the VALUE addition.
For the Flight number field, the flow logic displays the selected entries from the database
table SPFLI and places the selected line in the input field.

Amount Field Drop Down

I would like to add '---Please Select---' to my amount field dropdown.
But using this field allows you to submit the form (using a payment method other than credit card), without notifying you that it is a required field.
Then when it submits it goes to a white page and won't properly process.
Anyone know how to get around this as I have 5 different payment options and it would be great to have the customer make sure they choose the correct payment option for their needs.

Try hiding the amount field, then insert a custom drop down list which contains the prices. When a drop down is selected, that value will then populate the hidden amount field with the price selected. You'll need to use JavaScript.

Require user specific F4 functionality for a field in a program output

Dear all,
My requirement is i am using a field for ex: bukrs, name1 for an output. when iam using this two field in a program, if that program executes, i need F4 functionality for user specific. f4 functionality should show depends upon the name1.
In a template i have these two variables, when i give name1 as 'ABCD' and press f4 for the bukrs it should display only bukrs which are mapped to ABCD. Lets assume one table is there for name1 mapper to bukrs.
How it is possible. if so please let me know.

Arani Bhaskar

Hello Arani,
I think solution to your problem lies in using MATCHCODE addition to parameters and select-options as well.
(This is from SAP F1-Help)
... MATCHCODE OBJECT search_help
*Effect*
This addition links the input field of the parameter to a search help search_help from the ABAP Dictionary. The name of the search help must be entered directly. For the input field of the parameter on the selection screen, the input help key is displayed. When the input help (F4) is requested, the user is displayed the hit list from the search help. When an entry is selected, the respective value is placed into the input field. If no search help for the specified name exists in the ABAP Dictionary, a message is displayed in the status line when the input help is requested.
The addition MATCHCODE OBJECT cannot be used together with the additions AS CHECKBOX or RADIOBUTTON.
*Note*
The predecessors of search helps in the ABAP Dictionary were socalled matchcode objects. This is why you have the name MATCHCODE OBJECT for this addition. Matchcode objects that have not yet been replaced by search helps continue to be supported by this addition.
*Example*
Linking the parameter p_carrid with a suitable search help. When you choose the input help on the selection screen, a list with the names of the airline carriers is displayed. If a name is selected, the corresponding abbreviation is placed in the input field.
PARAMETERS p_carrid TYPE s_carr_id
MATCHCODE OBJECT demo_f4_de.
Moreover, please read about using MATCHCODE, hope it helps you, Arani.

Code for Payment Method Drop Down in ESS Banks Detail

Hello ,
I am on EP7.0 ERP05 NW04s and trying to modify the Payment Method DropDownByKey on the Banks Detail screen....I want to know where's the code which is filling the dropdown for the corresponding values of Payment Method like Direct Deposit for 'D' stored in R/3 for Zlsch field....
And then I want to filter the DropDown to list only Direct Deposit and Payroll Check......
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi All,
I have done the WD changes like this:
Bank Iview:
Changes done to restrict the payment method combo box.
1.Crete the simple type(PaymentMethod - Ennumeration) with values that you wanna populate(get these values and corresponding text from Back-end)
2.Create a context variable (PymtMethodFromSympleType) and attach it to the simple type PaymentMethod.
3.Attacht the PaymentMethod drop down box to context variable (PymtMethodFromSympleType).
Coding:
4.In wdDoModify()
Assign the actual payment method that is coming from back-end(Idefault value in case of new back and existing value in case of Edit) to context variable that is attached to paymentmethod drop down.
wdContext.currentContextElement().setPymtMethodFromSimpleType(wdContext.currentSelectedInfotypeElement().getZlsch());
5.Create an action for drop down box (Action PaymentMethodChange) which creates the method onActionPaymentMethodChange()
In onActionPaymentMethodChange() method Assign the vlaue of the created context element to actual back-end context variable.
wdContext.currentSelectedInfotypeElement().setZlsch(wdContext.currentContextElement().getPymtMethodFromSimpleType());
I did the testing for all scenarios in portal and it works, but I might have to check with AP as well to see it doesn't bounce at their end.
Let me know if you have any questions,
Thanks,
Hari.
