Search Help on Table Control - Fill more than one field in the table?

Hey everyone,
I have built a screen with a Table Control on it... the fields of the table control are linked to an internal table... The internal table has the line type of a structure I've defined in the data dictionary. Within that structure in the data dictionary, I've linked some fields to search helps (For example, a MATNR and CUSTOMER search help)... I've defined in the structure definition which fields from the search help are to be returned to which fields in the structure.
The problem is, even though I have the search help set to export both the customer number and location when using the search help on the customer field, it still does not fill the location field within the table. Is this a limitation of using search helps within table controls?
I'm also finding that by defining the search help through the structure, instead of directly within the screen, the search help round button does not show up on the field, yet I can still press F4 to bring up the search help. Is there a reason why it's not showing the search help clickable button even though it works fine using F4?
For doing search helps in Table Controls, is it better to just build the search help, attach it directly to the field in the table, and then after the user picks the single field, use the PAI to run a select and fill the rest of the fields required?
Thanks,
Dallas

Hi Dallas,
(1)
What i understood is that you added a search help by defining it in the internal table type for a field customer number..in the search help you have 2 fields customer number and location...user press the search help ..then you need to fill 2 different fields or 1 field?
if you need to fill the customer location or location (only one) then you need to set the "import" in the search help for whichever is required.....
if you need to fill 2 or more different fields..then you can use the technique you have mentioned last , to do a select in PAI and fill the fields....but this you can use if the combination for the fields is unique...eg: u have customer number and location..if customer X can be mapped to location X and location Y..when a select statement is done there are 2 options..so in such cases it is better to leave the option to the user otherwise if there is a clear mapping like customer X can be mapped only to location X then you can use the select..
(2)
usually when you define it as a type in the internal table the icon doesn't show up..but you can do alternative like mentioned..go to the table,find the search help for the required field if present or create a new one if required and place the search help mentioned in the screen itself..so as to see the icon...sometimes users are adamant that they need the search help icon to be seen..so it depends on if your user
(3)
as in the example of customer number and location mentioned we can provide them different search helps and do the needful processing in PAI to fill the fields
Table controls may be used for different purposes and requirements....even a checkbox,push button can be placed as a field in table control and used,but yes most of the time requirements are like what is mentioned in your case...

Search help for table control input value

Hi,
We have designed a GUI for supply invoice approval workflow with table control.
In the table control fields, we assigned one search help on one field.
We can enter the values(F4 Help) up 8 row in the default screen, which is having 8 row.
After scrolling down for 9th row, I am not getting any F4 help, which I am able to get upto 8 rows.
Please any one could help me in this...
BR,
Thirupathi

Hi,
Did you assign the search help to the Search Help of the Attributes -> Dictionary tab of the field?
Irrespective of scrolling, the F4 help should work for the field in table control.

Raj

Search help in table control using attributes window in layout

Hi.
I am trying to use search help for my table control fields. the table control basically displays product details.
I have a name field, description field and price field. I have named my field to match the the structure of my search help (stProducts-name, stProducts-description and stProducts-price respectfully). then for each i entered shProducts (my search help) in the search help field.
However, upon running the program, in the name, description and price field, by clicking f4 the name of the product is displayed in the field irrespective to which column I am selecting. Also the values in the other fields are not affected.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you

Search help on table control field which imports info from same record

Hi Team ABAP,
i got a slight problem here and kinda dont know how to proceed.
I got a DDIC structure containing fields KSCHL and NACHA.
Additionally i got a customizing table based on kschl, where allowed NACHA´s per KSCHL get customized.
Now i got a table control, containing records of type of above described structure.
I created a search help for Field NACHA which actually uses KSCHL as importing since we just want to see those NACHA´s allowed for the given KSCHL.
Search help itself works fine. I got problems in how to tell it which kschl to import.
I have coded an routine in event PROCESSES ON VALUE REQUEST.
There i could do DYNP_VALUES_READ or get my data right out of the itab on which the table control is based. i just got the problem that i dont have a clue how identify which search help of which table control line got clicked.
having a first look i dont see any of SY fields changing using different lines. So i´m stuck. any Ideas?
regards

Use FM [DYNP_GET_STEPL|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=dynp_get_stepl] "Current sy-stepl at Event POV", then use the returned povstepl value in DYNP_VALUES_READ (and DYNP_VALUES_UPDATE if required)

Assign Search Help to Table

Hi All,
I have created a custom check table which also has a text tables assigned to it. I have created a Elementary Search help for the check table and the selection method for the search help is the check table itself.
The issue is when I goto the check table using SE11, I click on Extras --> Search Help for Table, it does not display the search help that I had created however the search help is displayed for a similar customizing table created by SAP, TVK8.
I think I need to assign the search help to the custom table that I have created. I would greatly appreciate if anyone can tell me as to how I can assign the search help to the check table.
Thanks,
Vamseedhar K

Also check the steps to create search help.
This is how u can create "Search Help" for the fields of the ztables that u have created.
SE11- Create Search Help for 1 field, "Selection Method" box put the Table name to which the field belongs to. "Dialog Type" box write: "Display Value Immediately".
Search Help Parameter is the Field name for which u want the Help. Tick Imp & Exp options and assign LPOS = 1 and Enter. , save and Activate.
SE11- Go to the table , Click on the Field that needs to be assigned a search Help....Click at the left side of the Field so that all the corresponding data Elements, Key field etc also gets selected.
Click on the "Search Help tab" just above the "Data Type " column.
Put the "Search Help" name that u just created. Mention the Field and Enter. it takes up the required values. Now Copy.
U can repeat the process for whatever fields u want to assign a Search Help.
se51- Go to Screen Painter, Select Fields from Dictionary table to which u want search help to be assigned.
Double click on the Text box of the corresponding field,......> Screen Painter Attributes.......> Search help Text box.........> Enter the name of the Search help that u created for a field.
Ok....>Save.........> Activate
Now u should be able to get the Search help for the fields that u wanted to.

Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Mar 3, 2011 11:54 AM

Hi Saravana,
Please search in SCN before posting. You will find many threads related to this question. The basic logic is you have to get the selected row of table control using DYNP_GET_STEPL function in your POV. Then using function DYNP_VALUES_READ read the material and create the description to be displayed. You have use function F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST to display search help.

Transfering multiple fields from help in table control

Hi everyone.
I have a table control in a dynpro.
The table control has many fields: x, y, z ...
I have a module in PROCESS ON VALUE REQUEST for a field "x".
The module calls a function to search values for field "x" and for field "y".
How can I transfer the value of field "y" to the screen?
I know that I can use the function DYNP_VALUES_UPDATE but it updates the field "y" in the wrong position of the table.
Thanks so much for your help.

Why is there no standard search help for table-field T056U-VZSKZ?

Hi Experts,
A blessed day.
Table-Field T056U-VZSKZ (Control table for calculation of interest on arrears-Interest calculation indicator or account number) is being used to provide the entries for a screen-field of a standard transaction for Account Determination: Posting Specifications. However, this table-field T056U-VZSKZ does not have a standard search-help. I've looked for an OSS for this, but wasn't able to find one. Is there a reason why this T056U-VZSKZ does not have the standard search help when VZSKZ is it's key field?
Thanks.
Regards,
ianne

Hi Marco,
When you attach the search help make sure you also attach the export parameter of the search help to the name column. That is in the tab 'Further characteristics' we have to pass two value. The search help name should be typed in place of 'Parameters' and the export parameter of the search help should be typed in the place of 'Name'.
Please try this and post back the updations.
Thanking you,
Jerry
