Search Help for custom data element

Hi experts,
I have a small question regarding accessing data on different clients.
Can I have an abap program where I can make reference to data /tables in different client AAA, assuming the system (AAA) with data is logically connected to the client that has the ABAP Program ?
thanks,
Rajesh

Thanks Ankur and Rich,
I would like to clarify your responses.
I have a custom field my material in SAP xRPM system( different client from R/3). As per your previous replies, I understand it is possible to have search help for material in xRPM and validate the data with material in R/3. Is this correct? Do I need to maintain all the data in the xRPM ?
thanks again,
Rajesh

Search Help for Customizing Workbench request

Hi Colleagues,
I have two elements in the WD UI viz: Workbench Transport Request and Customizing transport Request.
I have Dictionary Search Help set to SEEF_MIG_TRKORR for Workbench TR but i cannot find a search help for Customizing TR.
Also there is no search filter on the SEEF_MIG_TRKORR search help. Thus i cannot use this for both the elements.
Could you please help to determine the search help for customizing request.
Thanks and Regards,
Piyush

Please try '/SAPSLL/TRKORR_W' OR 'COMSH_DIFF_KEY_GEN_REQ'

How to assign search help for custom cost centre field in SRM 7.0

Hi Experts!!
We are currently working in SRM 7.0.As per our business requirement, in account assignment tab we need to use a custom
cost centre field (ZCOST_CENTRE) instead of standard cost centre field.It is observed that for standard cost centre field there is a standard web-dynpro search-help assigned where it will return the F4 search help values from backend.
Can any one of you please help me how can I assign the search-help for the custom cost centre field. Is there any FM to call the backend cost centre search help for custom field or any other way how can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Kalyani

kalyani,
i can see your requirement in below way..
as it just reads: you need to assign the standard cost center help to a z cost center field in component /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_DO_ACC.. which actually is fetched though the component /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH
so, if you see the component controller of SAPSRM/WDC_UI_DO_ACC you will see the component
USAGE_SH_F4 /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH
USAGE_SH_F4 /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_BACKEND_SH INTERFACECONTROLLER
so you can replicate the same functionality for your z field.
but can you clarify one thing.. why are you going for this z field in place of standard field ?

Search help for custome field with different data type

Hi Friends,
I have Created a custom table in which i have created a field is
ZMATLONG which stores material number.
Now the data element is zdmat which is of char 40..
Now i want to give search help for this field ZMATLONG..
I have tried many ways giving search help to this field
a) i Tried to attach the standard search help of MATNR ie : MAT1 but its showing me data type inconsistancy
b) i created a zsearch help and in the selection method i have used database table mara , again here iam getting the same error data type inconsistancy...
Now how can i give the search help like matnr field to my custom field ZMATLONG...
How can i do it..?
Thanks in Advance..
Regards
Kumar

Hi,
MATNR ahs length 18 and ZMATLONG has length 40.So due to this u cannot use MAT1 search help.
best way would be cope MAT1 into Z search help. Then in the search help parameter change the data element of field
MATNR as ZMATLONG.
Now if you assign Z search help to ZMATLONG it will work.
I tried this its working fine.

Search help for Custom Item level field

Hi All,
I have two custom fields at Item level. Both of them has fixed values defined at domain. The fixed values have a short text also given with them.
The problem I am facing is when SRM provides default search help for these custom fields, for first field the 'Value' and 'Description' comes in the search result screen, but for second, only 'Value' comes in the search result.
When I try to debug, it shows the SHLPTYPE as 'SH' for first one and for the second as 'FV'.
What does this indicate?
My requirement is to display both value and description in the search result screen.
Please suggest.
Thanks
Nandalal

Hi
Sorry for the delay. My User got locked for some time.
I have seen the document you sent me on my email id.
 I noticed in the case where the Search help is working fine, there is no space in between the contents of the Fixed values and their short text under the value range tab of the Domain element.
But in the case, where there is a problem with the search help. There both the Fixed values and their short description is having a space in between the words.
Try maintaining COND_A instead of "COND A". Also with the short description use "COND_A" instead of "COND A".
I hope this will resolve the issue.
Update me once you have any issues.
Please reward suitable points, incase it suits your requirements.

No search help for Custom field ZZKUKLA in vk11

Hi,
I have added the field KUKLA - Customer classification as a pricing field in KOMP. Created an access sequence as follows: Sales Org.-> Customer Classification - material group.
In the creation of the record in VK11 I'm not getting the search help for the ZZKUKLA field. The thing is that if I'm in change or display, the search help for the field appears and lists the possible values.
Anyone have a clue?
Thanks!
/Patrik

Dear Pratik,
Request you to first add Customer classification field (ZZKUKLA) in KOMK structure insted of structure KOMP. Becasue it is header structure filed. After add this new filed in KOMK structure, Add this new filed in your field catelog and than create table and new access sequence. Also request you to select KOMK structure in your access sequence against this new field Customer classification ZZKUKLA.

Search help for customer

Hi Guys,
My requirement is to create a search help for the customer field. The selection need to be restricted on Vendor maser(LFA1). When the user press on F4, he should get the list of all customers maintained in LFA1 table. The existing search help (DEBI) is having so many tabs and user doesn't want it. So, when we press on F4, the list of customers which are maintained in LFA1 should appear.
Points assured.
Cheers

Search Help attached to Data Element Question

Hello! Hopefully this is a simple question to answer. I have looked online but cannot find exactly what I need.
We currently have a search help attached to a data element. The search help is a custom search help. It does work so when you are in the screen it will show you options to pick from for that field. However, the field also allows for free-form text so the user can type in whatever and the screen will take it.
Is there a way through the data element or search help to make it so the user is restricted to only what is in the search help and cannot just enter whatever?
Thanks!!

For restricting values You can use the at selection screen event on that field.
The search help field values will be there in a table .
So what ever values are there in the table for that particular field , only those values will come in F4 also ..
If it not maintained then issue an appropriate error message.
at-selection screen on p_field.
selct single field from table into v_value.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
message ""Error message.
Endif.

"F4" search-help for custom field in PCUI

Hello all,
Does anyone know how I can create my own simple F4-help for a custom field I have added to a custom Tab Page in the PCUI? It should show a selection from a custom table.
I couldn't find an useable example in the PCUI-cookbook.
Any ideas anyone?
Kind regards,
Martijn de Jong.

Hi Manuel,
I saw that paragraph but didn't know how to implement it. Maybe you or someone else can explain/translate in steps what I have to do, according to the text underneath, i want to use a combobox:
"If you want the application to specify the values for selection (within popup or dropdown list box or
combobox (COBX respectively TIME)) at runtime instead of using predefined domain values, data
must be provided by the application via the method FILL_DROPDOWN_LISTBOX. That scenario
works if the field type is "Input Field" and the F4 application is set to "VALUE_TABLE". With these
customizing settings, the method FILL_DROPDOWN_LISTBOX of the interaction layer is called at
runtime and the actual field values will be passed to the application via importing parameter
IT_SCREEN_STRUCTURE. Thus the application can provide context-sensitive help values within a
popup or a dropdown list box respectively combobox (COBX respectively TIME). Within the popup
more than one column of values can be displayed."
How/where do I (re)define method FILL_DROPDOWN_LISTBOX? Do i have to maintain an own class? and how do i ensure that more columns are shown?
Kind regards,
Martijn de Jong.
