Search Help for Ename with any character

Hi Gurus,
I provided the Personnel no( pernr ) with input field, once if we press the f4 on pernr. It opens the dialog box which contains
the pernr and ename from pa0001. Now my requirement is, i will provide the value for ename i.e. kumar . so it has to bring the values i.e kumar , before kumar and after kumar values. I'm using OVS in wd abap but not getting exactly. Please provide the logic for this.
Thanks & Regards
Chaitanya

Hi.,
Read the name value using get_attribute method. let say lv_name.,
now.,
concatenate '%' lv_name '%' into name.
select pernr ename from pa0001 into lt_tab where name like name.
now set lt_tab to result list.
hope this helps u.,
@moderators: move this to Web dynpro forum, instead of closing this.,
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran

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.

One search help for multiple select-options in webdynpro abap

Hi,
I need a way to use one search help for multiple select-options fields. My scenario is :
I have a table for keeping different organizational units' values of different systems. I have pasted some sample data from this table at the end of this mail. On the screen I want to have 1 select-options filed for werks, and 1 select-options filed for vkorg. (In fact I will have more org. unit fields...) In the beginning of my application the user will select sid.
If the user selects ADS as SID, when he opens search-help for the first org. unit (werks), he will see the records with SID: ADS, VARBL = $WERKS, LANGU = SY-LANGU.
If the user selects AGT as SID, when he opens search-help for the second org. unit (vkorg), he will see the records with SID: AGT, VARBL = $VKORG, LANGU = SY-LANGU.
I have created a search-help taking SIDD, VARBL and LANGU as import parameters; used field mapping and bound this search help to my table. I have created 2 context nodes : org1 and org2 having attributes SID, VARBL, VALUE, LANGU .
I have assigned related SID, VARBL and Langu values to these attributes at runtime as I needed. That way, if I use input field and reference to the related context attributes org1-value and org2-value2 accordingly, search help works well as I want.
However, when I use select-options field , I can not bind the field to the context data. I can give reference only to ddic structure. Is there any way to reference to a context attribute? I searched for this in SDN, but could find nothing.
I think I won't be able to use this way. What do you say?
As I read from forums maybe using OVS help will be suitable for me. But I have to use one search-help for all select-options fields. Do you know how I can determine the active select-options field and pass its name (for instance "werks" ) as parameter to this OVS search help. (Also I'll pass SID and LANGU.)
MY TABLE (ZBYYT080) CONTENTS:
SID     VARBL     VALUE     LANGU     VTEXT
ADS     $WERKS     1     T     Werk 0001
ADS     $WERKS     11     T     OZYAS GIDA URETIM YERI

ADS     $WERKS     5502     T     BOYA CIGLI FABRİKASI
AGT     $WERKS     2301     T     KAMLI DAMIZLIK
AGT     $WERKS     9601     T     PANAR DENIZ URETIM YERI
ADS     $VKORG     22     T     AA KİMYASALLAR
ADS     $VKORG     8001     T     İINSAAT BOYALARI
AGT     $VKORG     6500     T     DAMk St.Org
AGT     $VKORG     5400     T     PANAR St.Org.
I wish I'm clear enough..
I will be gald if someone answers me as soon as possible...
Thanks İn advance..

Hi,
Your ques is how to refer to a DDIC search help to refer to selection screen parameter ?
Am I right ?
If Yes, then in the interface IF_WD_SELECT_OPTIONS
method ADD_SELECTION_FIELD, ADD_PARAMETER_FIELD etc
have importing param like I_VALUE_HELP_TYPE and I_VALUE_HELP_ID, I_VALUE_HELP_MODE, I_VALUE_HELP_STRUCTURE
etc which may help you to link your create DDIC Search help to selection screen params.
this is just a clue from my side. I haven't tried it myself.
You can go to the where used list of this method and find some sample implementations which use these params.
Hope this helps.

Search help for business partner ID in segmentation applet

Hello,
In CRM 2007 I'm using the segmentation toll. When creating filters for Business Partner ID criterium I'm using a search help functionality to find the desired records. However search help for business partners used in this area is very different from the search help used in any other parts of WEB UI (it is restricted to only few fields, that are not enough for our requirements).
Segmentation applet is written in Java but the search help looks like normal WEB UI screen. I wonder if any of you could help me with replacing this serach help called by segmentation applet (java application) with a standard search help for business partners (BP_HEAD_SEARCH)?
Kind reagrds

Hello there,
I think the requirement/question is not very clear in your post.
However, the segment Java applet calls a CRM class which has related code and methods.
Class: CL_CRM_MKTTG_SEGAP_COM
Package: CRM_MKTTG_SEG_APPLET.
Please explain the problem in detail.

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

Hi Pradeep,
Please have a look into the below site which might be useful
Enhancing a Standard Search Help

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.

Pls help me

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,

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.

DATA: CARRIER(3) TYPE C,
CONNECTION(4) TYPE C.
CALL SCREEN 100.

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.

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.

Applying filters to F4 Search help - how so with many entries?

Hello all,
I have a problem that I have to filter a search help for employees. We use a DB view that unions infotypes 1, 2 and 105. Now I need to restrict potential employees to a given company code BUKRS.
I now invoke search help in REQUEST ON-VALUE REQUEST within a DynPro screen and call function module F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST which I am passing the restricted internal table.
Fine, that works - however, in the DynPro (which is actually used as an EWT within our portal), the entire internal table is sent to the frontent instead of, say, 250 or so.
The search help dialog offers the possibility to manually restrict for first and last name - is it perhaps possible, that this search only applies on the server (ITAB) and just returns the results according to the user input?
Otherwise, sending all potential employees to the frontend is consuming too much resources (time and traffic).
In function group SDHI there is an "example" module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE which tries to explain how to use callbacks but from my point of view I understand very few (it misses the big picture).
Do you know an alternative, e.g. using the other module F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST and to apply a filter to BUKRS using a callback mechanism? There are module parameters indicating that possibility (passing some report?). Perhaps one of you has some sample code, because I am much more trained in BAPI and web stuff only...
Any hints? Thank you in Advance!
Regards,
Timo

Hi,
if I can understand you, you tell me that you search information in the view and all found records (let´s say 300) are saved in the internal table, which in time you pass to function F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST for display. Now, you think it is too much to display 300 records because of time and traffic.

Search help for Web Dynpro using the SAP-search help

Hi,
Im trying to create a generic search help for Web Dynpro using the SAP-search help. It should working so, that I construct a Web Dynpro-component, that gets the data of the search help from the SAP-system, interpreted it and creates the ui-elements and the needed context generic.
The mapping between the Input field of the customerview and the right search help is to be made with an xml-file, which contains the information: name of the view, the input field, the search-help-name and the name of the field that will be returned.
The xml-file is reading from a helper-class. That helper-class contains any information, witch need the search help-component as well as the customer-component.
The initialization takes place in the method wdDoModify of the customer. The call of the search help from the customer should be implement with an Action, witch is bound to a Button(create dynamic in the helper-class behind the input field).
In a second foot should be create a plugin for eclipse, witch insert the used files (search help component, helper class, ) in the project. In addition it should create the call in the customer generic.
It would be great if someone can give me a feedback!

Hi Mike,
The BlanketAgreement.exe is a reference to the executable that will be created when you compile the solution you created in Part II - Part III. I think there is a mistake in the tutorial because it asks you to name the project 'Blanket' which means that by default the executable will be called Blanket.exe and not BlanketAgreement.exe. The tutorial also misses the step asking you to compile the Blanket project before you go on to create an installer. You should compile your Blanket project in Release mode before creating an installer. By compiling the project you'll get a Blanket.exe file in the bin folder of your Blanket project which you then need to add to the installer per the instructions.
SAP do offer development courses in some areas and there is training material here on the SDN and on the SAP partner portal (and maybe the customer portal as well). Try searching this forum for 'training' or 'tutorial' and you should get a few links. There's also a development certification.
Personally I'd recommend you give yourself a little project to work on and just get stuck in
Kind Regards,
Owen

Search help for Acct Assignment not working

Hi,
When I create a PO and go into the account assignment tab at the item level and try to bring up the search help by clicking on the Binoculars , nothing happens. The backend has been upgraded to ERP2005. We are on SRM 5.0
Any thoughts on why this could happen?
Can you shed some light on how I could investigate this issue.
Your help is appreciated.
Joe

Hi
This is a bug in the System. Are you talking of customer fields / standard fields - search help ?
You need to raise an OSS message with SAP on this.
Meanwhile, try these SAP OSS notes.
Note 739509 BBPPO01: SEARCH FOR ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT CATEGORY DOESN'T WORK
Note 746788 - Back-end system search help for cost center
Note 656633 - Search help requires dialog users
Note 907016 - Error when you select search help
Also ensure, proper authorization objects are provided by BASIS team.
Let me know incase you need any assistance.
Regards
