Dynamic Search Helps In An Input Field

Hi Experts,
          I need to populate an input field with different search helps based on the user action i.e when user selects "Audit" i hav to show the audit search help for my input field, when he selects "Audit Plan" i would hav to show audit plan search help.
My Questions >
1> i intend to use the method set_attribute_value_help of the interface if_wd_context_info and do the coding as :-
data lo_nd_info type if_wd_context_node_info.
lo_nd_info = lo_nd->get_node_info( ).
CALL METHOD lo_nd_info->set_attribute_value_help
        EXPORTING
          name            = 'identification' (attribute Name)
          value_help_mode = '121'
          value_help      = 'plm_auditplan'.(Help Name)
Is this the correct way to go if not plz suggest a more appropriate method.
2> in the context for that attribute ,what should i specify for the property input field
    Input Help Mode
    i.e should it be deactivated , automatic or should i give the dictionary serach help and specify one of the search helps by giving its name.
Your responses will be greatly appreciated,
Chaitanya.

SEARCH HELP TO AN INPUT FIELD

HOW TO APPLY SEARCH HELP TO AN INPUT FIELD FOR FOLLOWING EXAMPLE:
FOR THE FIELDS LOCATIONS, AND CONFERENCE ROOM NO.
LOCATIONS ARE A, B, C, D, G AND CONFERENCE ROOMS OF THESE LOCATIONS ARE,
A1, A2 ,A3,, LIKE WISE FOR REST OF THEM.
HERE IS THE PROBLEM,
hi,
this is a realtime implementation scenario pls provide full coding and answers with screen programming of it.
it is as follows:
Business Scenario u2013 conference room booking for the company
Business Scenario
You will build a computerized system to automate the process of Conference room booking for a company .
Xi Infotech, a software company, is having 5 locations at Bangalore. Each location has 3 conference rooms available
Masters
Maintain Employee Details
Maintaining Conference room Details.
Maintaining booking details
Transactions
Maintaining Date and timing of Meeting
The conference room in any of these locations have to be Pre-booked for the meeting indicating the purpose of meeting & no. Of attendees, date and time for which required.
Booking Confirmation has to be sent to the employee who blocks the room. If any other person tries to book the same room, he should be able to see that this room is blocked and the details regarding the employee who has blocked and the purpose & time for which the room is blocked
Reports
Datewise report on the conference rooms of all locations.
Month wise reports of conference room booked.

Hi,
For a given field if you have more number of possible values then go for the Value table or check table.
If you have a few values for a given field, then go for Value ranges. These can be maintained at Domain level for a field.
For each field create a correspondign data element(DE)
In this DE, we can have the FURTHER CHARACTERISTICS tab we can create a search help Or directly from SE11 we can create a SH then attach this to the DE Or we can directly maintian Or At the DOMAIN level we can .
Ex:
LOCATIONS ARE A, B, C, D, G AND CONFERENCE ROOMS OF THESE LOCATIONS ARE,
A1, A2 ,A3,, LIKE WISE FOR REST OF THEM.
Ex:
SE11->
DE and Domain names is LOC.
In SE11->DOMAIN->LOC->
Here as you have a few values we can maintain it in VALUE RANGES tab->
like
A (Description to be given) ie Loc A for Hyderabad
B Bangalore
C
D
G
Room Numbers-> here can createa value table with serial numbers at the Domain level.
Attach the same to the respective DE in the SE11.
Similary we can maitain for Conference room numbers or
We can create a Search help using the two field LOC and RoomNos and create a Elementary search help.
Like this we can do.
Get back if you still have queries on this.

Search Help for Infotype Custom Field

Hi,
I have created a search help for a custom field in an infotype. What would be the best way of filtering the help selection based on infotype values such as molga, begda, endda?
Thanks in advance.
/Elvez

Hi Nishanth,
thanks for your reply, perhaps I should clarify my question:
1) I have a custom field in an infotype
2) I have a table containing the search help information
3) I assigned a search help to the custom field
4) I have activated a search help exit
The problem is that the information that I get from the custom field is not sufficient for making the selection. Therefore, I would like to somehow get hold of the addition information, such as BEGDA, ENNDA, MOLGA, to do a proper selection in the search help exit. How can I achieve that?
I read something about function module DYNP_VALUES_READ -would it be possible to call this function module from my search help exit and thereby reach my goal?

Change Search Help for Payment Terms Field

Hi,
I would like to change the Search Help for Payment Terms Field, in Customer Master (KNVV-ZTERM). and in Sales Document. I believe it is the same.
Default is From Table T052 / T052U
ZTERM and TEXT1 Fields
I would like to have
From Table TVZBT
ZTERM and VTEXT
PayT Own Explanation Field.
Can we change the Search Help.

Hi,
The search help for the payment terms is not coming from the DDIC search help..
It is coded in the process on value-request event...
The function module FI_F4_ZTERM is called for this..you have to change this function module in case if you want the values from a different table..
OR do implicit enhancement in the subroutine FORM HELP_ZTERM in the include MF02DFH0 to call your search help instead of the function module FI_F4_ZTERM ..And do the same for the sales order also..
Thanks

SRM Portal - Search help for a custom field

Hi,
I have added a custom field to the SRM Portal (5.0) shopping cart, by adding the field to structures INCL_EEW_PD_ITEM_CSF INCL_EEW_PD_ITEM_CSF_SC.
However, I need to filter the search help for that custom field, based on values & relationships stored in a Z table.
Is this possible? How? Please help.
Thank You.

Currently, my idea would be to create a search help for the custom field & filter the values in a search help exit. However, would I be able to get other field values (standard) from SRM into my search help exit?

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

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.

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.

Search help for 'Account ID' field in 'Identify Account' section

Hello all,
We are on CRM 5.0.
I want to attach the search help 'BUPA' for the 'Account ID' field in 'Identify Account' view of IC Webclient.
Can you please let me know how I can achieve this.
Regards,
Nag

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?
