Search help for Field Selection

Hello Exeperts,
I've added the field ABWGR (Attendance/Absence Reason) in Iview Clock-in / Clock-out corrections, but when I execute the test this field in i-view does not show the codes created in the backend.
Is there a way to activate the search help for this field in clock-in/ou corrections iview?
Thanks in advance!

Implement the note 1080414. it contains both front end and backend changes

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     5501     T     BOYA GEBZE FABRİKASI
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.

Create search helps for fields of custom tables

Hi,
Could any one please provide me the step by step process to create search helps for fields in custom tables?
Thanks in advance,
Nobin.

Hello Nobin
There is basically no difference between a search help for standard vs. customer tables.
An important choise is the selection method for your search help:
Either you use your custom table, a view or a search help user-exit if you need to implement very specific requirements.
Assuming that you can use your DB table as selection method the further implementation of the search help is quite straightforward:
(1) Define the parameters you would like to have a selection criteria (SPos = SPos) and which should appear on the result list (= LPos).
(2) Define the parameters that can be used as input for the selection (flag IMP) and are returned by the search help (flag EXP)

Search help for PERNR select options in Webdynpro

Hi,
I am using the method: lv_r_helper_class->add_selection_field
and passing the value:
i_value_help_type            = if_wd_value_help_handler=>CO_PREFIX_SEARCHHELP
to get search help for pernr select option in the webdynpro application.
But can anyone please tell me what value i have to pass to
i_value_help_id              = ??

hi,
pass your search help name there so that your desired search help ll come there..
use this,
i_value_help_type            = if_wd_value_help_handler=>CO_PREFIX_SEARCHHELP
i_value_help_id              = 'SEARCHHELPNAME'
if you want standard SH means comment this stmt,
if you dont want SH means,
use tis,
i_value_help_type            = if_wd_value_help_handler=>CO_PREFIX_NONE
hope this helps,

Search help for field in SM30

Hi Experts,
This is a Z table with first field as GROUP and second field as KEY.
User can select values for first field using a search help. It has three possibel entries
1. Purchasing Org
2. Region
3. Coutnry
In second field the user has to enetr value based on selection in first field, for eg. if 1 is chosen in 1st field user will enter name of a purchasing organisation.
Can we dispay a search help for second field based on the selection in first field?
Like if 1 is selected in 1st field second field should display search help for Purchasing Org
if 2 is selected in 1st field second field should display search help for Region....in SM30?
How can we achieve this?
Thank you,
Anubhav

Hi Anubhav,
1.Go to the table maintenance generator screen from SE11 (Utilities -> Table Maintenance Generator).
2. In the Table maintenance generator screen , navigate to Environment -> Modifications -> Maintenance Screens
3. Select and Edit the screen where you need this new search help
4. Create a Process on Value Request module for your second field at the end of the screen flow logic after MODULE LISTE_AFTER_LOOP.
5. In the POV module, use funcntion DYNP_VALUES_READ to read the value of field 1 on the screen
6. Fill your own table with the values for field 2 based on field 1 and display selection using the function F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST
Hope this helps.

Search help for field of tcode MIGO

Hi,
I want to add search help for Goods recipient (GOITEM-WEMPF) field on MIGO screen, how to achieve that?
I tried with BADI MB_MIGO_BADI, but its now working.
Is there any BADI or field exit available?
Thanks

hi
i know that there are two options for defining the input help of a field.
1 Define the input help in ABAP dictionary. (recommended option)
2 Define the input help in the screen field. the disadvantage is that there is no automatic reuse.
1st option
Se11 --> create your own search help
    substeps:
        1) Enter short description
        2) selection method : this is the check table/view of the field GOITEM-WEMPF
        3) Search help parameter : parameters used in the search help.
        4) IMP: Import parameters
        5) EXP: Export parameters
        6) Lpos :hitting list [search result]position in the header [values 1,2,3,4,5]
        7)Spos: search position on the dialog search screen.
        8) data elements : they are from the selection method.
        9) Save and activate
        10) test this via the button "test"
       Note: the search help is not yet effective fo the field GOITEM-WEMPF
        11) Attach this search help for the table [ selection method mentioned above]
              a) Goto change mode of this table via SE11
              b) choose goto--> search help> for table
                        or Extras --> search help for table, in the next dialog box enter the name of search help
              C) The proposal created by the system for assigning the search help parameters to the key fields of the table is probably correct. check this and copy the definition.
              d) Active this table.
              e) Call the create entries function for table GOTIME again. the input help of field WEMPF should behave as desired.
regards,
Brian

How to add search help for field in ALV object

Hello,
In a program, we use ALV object ( container) to create a liste like : field1, field2 .. but when display we do not have search help for this . Could you please help me how to add match code in this case for field 1 and field2, We use set_table_for_first_display
Thanks,

Hi,
when you define your field catalogue you can create data elements with search help in se11 and use them for field 1 and field 2.
But maybe it is enough to use data elements belonging to a domain with a value help and to set field F$AVAILABL in the field catalogue or to fill the name of the field CHECKTABLE.

Search help for field in Standard Transaction

Hi Experts,
      We have a requirement to have an F4 search help for a standard field .
( Plant, werks, Tx AS01 ). This field is not associated with any standard search help, but it throws F4 values programmatically .
   We need to associate a standard search help ( BETR_BUKRS ) with this Plant field.
1. How to proceed abt it ( As it is a part of module program , can we straight away associate with the search help in the property ) ,it is a field of standard Transaction .
2. If we include search help above, what will happen to the already existing F4 functionality ? Can we have both in tabs ?
   Thanks a lot,
~Abap Lover

Hi Seshatal,
     Thanks for the input, but this field does NOT have any ON VALUE REQUEST event associated with it ....
   as soon as F4 is hit, it goes to Function help_start ,so I don't think we can make any changes here as it is standard .
   I think including a standard search help will help....how to achieve this ?
Thanks,

Change search help for field 'customer' in Trade Promotion

Hello everyone,
I would like to change the search help for the customer field (CRM_MKTPL_TRADE-CUSTOMER_ID search help: CRM_MKTPL_CAMPAIGN_CUST_ID) to one of my own.
How can I do this?
I would also like to change the search help for each partner function in the partner-tab. Is this the same procedure as above?
Regards,
Friederike

Hi Friederike,
If I have understood your question correctly then here is the answer.
You can change the search help for the required filed. All you have to do is: Go to the table CRM_MKTPL_TRADE. Then look for the field CUSTOMER_ID. Change only the description of the field. then you can search by the description whenever you require.
But the procedure will not be same if you want to change the search help for partner functions. In this case you have to change the descriptionof these partner functions in the transaction BP.
But why do you require it, because the partner functions will be determined automatically.
Hope it helps.

Ankur

Search help for fields in custom table..

hi,
in my custom table i have two fields - table name and field name. when user selects table name as VBAP , for field names i need all the fields in VBAP to be displayed and for that I set the check table as DD03L and I am able to see all the fields. But i am not able to see the description of the fields rather seeing field name , other key fields of DD03L.
How do i get to display something like
field name - description - length (length of the field as defined in DDIC)
If search help will help then can u pl tell me how to create one ? or any standard can be used ?
thanks

Yes, you need to create search help and assign it to the field 'field name'
Please search SDN for how to create search help. There are 100's of threads with this
By the way the texts can be found in table DD03T for tables as well as for fields

Screen Painter - search help for field

Hello All,
I have some fields in a screen created with Screen Painter.
The filelds's types are standard system types like BU_PARTNER or other.
How do I have to define them so that in the screen to appear the match code?
Thank you very much,
Diana.

Hi Diana Cotelea,
You can use standard search help 'BUPA'.
Do as follows,
1. Goto 'Dict' tab of the property of BU_PARTNER field in your screen, in 'Search Help' property enter the search help name 'BUPA'.
2. Goto 'Program' tab, for 'Poss. Entries Key' property select 2 or 3 from its DropDowm List values.
Try this.

Search help for field in ABAP Query

Hi Experts,
For a particular field in standard table the search help(F4) is not maintained in the table level, which is used in a ABAP query.
Is there any possibilities for user-defined Search help using InfoSet or Query?
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance,
Balaganesh.

Hi Bala,
I understand your question better now. Since you mention standard selections I assume that your InfoSet is based on a logical database instead of a table join, direct read, or custom data retrieval program. You are correct that the AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE REQUEST logic I mentioned earlier will not work for the standard selections of a logical database. The system gives you an error when generating your InfoSet if you try to use the standard selection name (in ECC 5.0 at least). I've tried various tricks to attempt to get it to work, but so far no luck.
You could, of course, use a different logical database as your InfoSet basis (e.g. VAV has a matchcode on VBAK-VBELN) or create your own data retrieval program and change your InfoSet to use the custom program instead of a logical database. In the second case you wouldn't need to deal with standard selections at all. I understand that these solutions are probably not what you need and, in the case of the custom data retrieval program, would be more complex (it may not be worth it to write a custom program just to allow F4 help... or maybe it would be... just depends).
Please keep us updated if you find a way to do it. I'll also report back if I happen to discover a way.
Best Regards,
Jamie
