Search help for Material long text ?

Hello,
A given material code MATNR is linked a material short text ( MAKT_MAKTG for example) which is on max 40 characters.
Where can i maintain the material long text ( around 100 characters) which is available in a search help in standard SAP ?
Note : in the material master data, i know the view Purchase order text, but is there any search help for this ?
Or do you have to develop an own search help ?
Thank you in advance,
Isabelle

Thank you Jürgen,
OK, i understand that a search help on long text is not a good idea
Nevertheless, 40 characters to name a material is too short for our users. Do you know any other text field that we can use ? because i imagine it is not possible to extend MAKTG to more that 40 char.
Our issue is that we upload our material data from some manufacturer material file, and their material description (even the one called " short text" is often more than 40 char.
Do you see any possible solution ?
Thank you,
Isabelle

Search Help for Material Master

We would like to have a search help for the material master.
This should help me search the materials which have the product hierarchy field filled.
Please let me know if the below steps are correct.
1)Create a new Match Code say zMAT_prod
2)Add the match Code zMAT_prod to MAT1_A collective search help.

Hi Rohita,
Adding Matcode Id is correct...You can add this matchcode ID in the selection screen.
Also before adding the Matchcode ID ...You may need to write a select query with the condition to populate the data into that view.
Ex :
select single vbeln
           from vbak
                   into table t_matchcode
                   where vbak = xyz "give any condition which you wish to extract the data.
Suppose Matchcode Id is ZTA.
Select-options : s_vbeln for vbak-vbeln matcode id ZTA
So that it will display the Serach help with all the details.

Kittu

How to build search help for company code (BUK) in SRM

Hello,
I am new to SRM and was wondering if any have come across similar requirement. I am a workflow developer and we are building a custom table to derive deadline escalation timelines. We are also adding a field in our custom table for company code so that we can have company specific deadlines. table T001 is empty in SRM and hence we are unable to use F4 (search help). Is there existing functionality in SRM that gets this search from the backend ECC system and displays when F4 is pressed. How can I use that functinoality?
Appreciate any info folks.
Thanks again.
Samir

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ?

Re: Search help for Custom Item level field
Custom field in SRM as a dropdown field with values stored in R/3

Company code
Problems assigning values via F4 or search help
Also There is a standard table in SRM which contains Plant data ->
BBP_LOCMAP (Mapping Table Business Partner --> System --> Location)
Try creating a custom search help based on this Table, defined as selection method and assign the same to the related field.
Do let me know.

Search Help for transaction code KE53

Hi Experts,
I want to add one more elementary search help in already existing search help PRCT for tcode KE53.
This is a collective search help. I am trying to create an elem. searh help which includes 3 input fields
Profit Center (PRCTR), Text desc. of Profit Center (LTEXT), and Company Code (BUKRS). But the problem is PRCTR & BUKRS are in table CEPC_BUKRS and PRCTR & LTEXT in table CEPC. Then how do i club the 3 in a single elem help. Do i have to use Search Help Exit. I have created a FM in which i have written a select query as follows:
SELECT APRCTR ALTEXT B~BUKRS
       FROM CEPCT AS A
       INNER JOIN CEPC_BUKRS AS B
       ON APRCTR = BPRCTR
       INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE ITAB.
ITAB is the table in FM. The FM also includes the changing parameters :SHLP & CALLCONTROL and tables SHLP_TAB & RECORD_TAB (but i dont know the use of the parameters). How do i proceed.
I dont have any idea about search help exits. Also there is no table which includes PRCTR, BUKRS and LTEXT.

Hi,
No need to write a search help exit. You can instead give a database view in the selection method. This database view can be a join on the tables CEPC and CEPC_BUKRS.
Refer to the search help PRCTN which uses a database view as the selection method.
Since this is a standard search help, you will have to use append search help technique. Refer to this link for [enhancing the standard search help|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/1f/29ef5777df11d2959800a0c929b3c3/frameset.htm].

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

Material Search Help for VA01 - Material by Plant

Hi Experts,
I want to know how to find out the search help for that material in that tcode. Please tell me in detail how to proceed with this and where to go with the modifications or enhancement.
I am not familiar with user exits, so please help me.
Regards,
Bhaskar.

Hi,
you don't need any exit / badi.
Go in VA02, in material number go in technical information : F1 ; F9
You will show there is no search-help link to the field. So the search-help is taken from the data element.
Go in SE11 and show the data element MATNR.
In the thirth tab you will find the search-help link : S_MAT1.
Go in SE11 and show the search help S_MAT1 (each time you could double click instead of reopen SE11).
This is a group search, that means, it contains many search help.
Copy a simple search help, modify as you would like.
Add your own search help in the S_MAT1, and don't forget to link fields (parameters).
You don't need any object key or user-exit.
You will affect all the screen of SAP using this search-help S_MAT1.
Regards
Frédéric

In my report , I have kept these 2 materials in my selection screen.For revision level , I have added the matchcode object which I have created.
