Regarding Search help on selection-screen field

Hi there,
I am working on custom tables.
I have a requirement to maintain search pattern on a selection-screen field.
selection-screen parameter: p_name which is company name filed from Z table.
By giving a string like Holl* and by pressing F4 on the field p_name it has to popup a dialogbox having list of company names starting with Holl.
Thanks in advance.

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
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/daeda0d7-0701-0010-8caa-

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.

Assign search help for a screen field in standard program?

Hi All,
Is there any other way to assign search help to a standard SAP screen field? (to be precise i want to assign search help to Recipient field in table control of components tab in transaction IW32/IW31)
I know we can do this by assigning search help through screen painter (by changing standard program, which is my last option).
Any advice/help will be greatly appreciated.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR s_bsart.
CALL SCREEN 100 STARTING AT 10 5

SUPPRESS DIALOG.
LEAVE TO LIST-PROCESSING AND RETURN TO SCREEN 0.
SET PF-STATUS space.

Hi all,
I've created a search help (zhlp) and want to attach it to the screen field in the selection screen of my report.
SELECT-OPTIONS KSCHL FOR VAKE-KSCHL
MEMORY ID VKS.
I've attached zhlp to the screen by defining it on the element list of the screen 1000.
And the original db table T685 already got a search help H_T685, when I run my report and press F4 in the field, it calls the default search help H_T685 but not mine.
Could anyone help me? Thanks.

here is the syntax for assiging search help to selection screen field.

How to add a search help on a screen field from screen painter

Hi,
I would like to add an existing Search Help on a screen field in Screen painter.
Of course it's possible to just click on th screen field and in the property box, I just have to set the name of teh search help.
The problem is that I need the screen field to be grey and user musn't be able to change the field value if he doens't use the search help.
I'm not allowed to modify the existing search help or to built it on my own from source code, I must use the existing one.
Do you have an idea on how to do so?
Regards,
Morgan

Dropdown Box:
In the screen painter for that field goto properties -> Dropdown ->select listbox.
Option 1:
Instead let that field be in change mode and if user enters any wrong entry which is not there in the table give a error messgae.
CHAIN.
 FIELD addr1_data-country.
 MODULE modify_screenfields1.
ENDCHAIN.
MODULE modify_screenfields1 INPUT.
CASE sy-ucomm.
 WHEN 'ENTER' OR 'EXECUTE'.
 IF NOT addr1_data-country IS INITIAL.
 SELECT SINGLE landx FROM t005t INTO lws_landx WHERE
 land1 = addr1_data-country
 AND spras = 'EN'.
 IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 MESSAGE e000(zo_spa) WITH text-022. " Invalid Country code
 ELSE.
 t005t-landx = lws_landx.
 ENDIF.
 ELSE.
 CLEAR: t005t-landx.
 ENDIF.
 ENDCASE.
ENDMODULE. " modify_screenfields1 INPUT
Option 2: Other than if u want the way u like, let that field be greyed out. don't attach the search help.
In the PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
FIELD addr1_data-region MODULE region_pov.
MODULE region_pov INPUT.
Using the F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST table value request show the search help.
also make that field input enabled.
ENDMODULE. " region_pov INPUT
I think this will solve ur problem.

Prakash.

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?

I am using LDB PNPCE. I want to give default value for field Personnel area on selection screen.
How can I do it?
Thanks
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
In the INITIALIZATION event we can set the default values for selection screen fields.
INITIALIZATION.
loop at screen.
if screen-name = 'S_MATNR-LOW'.
CLEAR S_MATNR.
s_matnr-low = '1234'.
s_matnr-option = 'EQ'.
s_matnr-sign = 'I'.
append s_matnr.
CLEAR S_MATNR.
s_matnr-high = '5678'.
s_matnr-option = 'EQ'.
s_matnr-sign = 'I'.
append s_matnr
clear s_matnr.
endif.
endloop.
Hope it helps.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR BUKRS-LOW.
PERFORM MYPOPULATE.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR BUKRS-HIGH.
PERFORM MYPOPULATE.
FORM MYPOPULATE.
REFRESH ITAB.
SELECT * FROM T001 INTO TABLE ITAB.
call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'

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
Naren
