Single search help MAT1L looses matchcodes

A client asked to limit the MAT1 help for some users. We implemented succesfully a single search help with MAT0M (by erasing all others from shlp_tab) and filters by maktl and t023-begru (which has a very usefull authorization object).
Now he asked to add a second help window, and I've met an anoying difficulty. If I add the MAT1L and keep the MAT0M, I get the two help tabs, but the MAT1L help doesn't use my MAT1 user exit function. If I delete the MAT0M and keep only the MAT1L, that help uses my MAT1 user exit function, but looses it's internal matchcodes for spras and maktl.
I've been trying to adjust some parameters in shlp and shlp_tab, but so far with no success.
I need some pointers to either keep both views and have them use my user exit function or have only the MAT1L with matchcodes enabled.

Hi Gustavo,
Maybe you could write your restriction in search help exit(each elementrysearch help could have one exit).

Markus

    Matchcodes were replaced with Search Helps starting with Release 4.0. Please use search helps to assign an input help to a field.
    Existing matchcodes were automatically converted to search helps. A matchcode object is hereby converted to a collective search help with the same name.

    A matchcode is a means of finding data records stored in the system. The matchcode is defined in the ABAP Dictionary in two steps:

  • Search help assign

    Hi,
    I have created search help.
    1.How to assign this search for soem standard fields.
    2. Is it possible to create search input for several fields e.g.. if I input city name , other field should be populated with values of city / pstlz, region.../
    ps. I have authority to change standard SAP program / object key/

    Hi,
    I agree with ajay tiwari,
    1)You can assign search help to fields by using matchcode object.
    Example:
    select-options s_matnr for marc-matnr matchcode object mat1h.
    My Search help is mat1h and I am assigning to s_matnr.
    2)You can also assign search help in table, at the Data Element level. The field is available in u201CFurther Characteristicsu201D tab.
    3) You can create separate search help for all fields and then assign them. It may not be possible to fill multiple screen fields from a single search help.

  • Search help-vendor master combine classification with additional criteria

    I want to build a single search help with classification data and vendor master data. 
    I have a classification on the vendor master identifying the state the vendor is licensed to do business in.  I also have the city from the vendor address.  I have separate search helps for the classification and the vendor address (city).  I would like to combine the search helps.  For example I would like to search vendors licensed to do business in Inidiana and those with a city of Indianapolis.  Any guidance on this would be appreciated. 
    Thanks in advance, Jay

    1. Check the search help exit example (FM) F4IF_SHLP_EXIT* and copy it to z name space.
    2. In the SH Exit, use the callcontrol-STEP = 'SELECT' to overtake data selection (add additional selection criteria like state and city)
    3. Assign the SHExit to vendr master screen field's search help (yes, the field's search help - you dont need an access key for that)
    4. Test, see if hitlist results match your filter criteria and tune the exit

  • Search Help for Document No. Like in CV02N

    Dear Experts,
    I'm currently making selection screen for a print program for DMS documents, where the selection parameters are exactly the same like CV02N (Change DMS Documents).
    Problem is, we need the parameter to behave like CV02N too, with single search help that will fill in all parameter. I tried to find the match code object by debugging CV02N but to no avail.
    Anyone has experience with this?
    Thanks before,

    Turned out that it's automatic. No need to use any match code object.

  • How to implement search help instead of match code objects table in program

    Hi,
    We are now in upgrade process of code remediation ( From 4.6c to EC6.0).
    We have created search helps instead of matchcode object table. This match code object table M_VMVLC has been deleted
    in EC6.0.  And search help VMVLC is available.
    In the program, they have used <M_VMVLC > -<fieldname> i.e. <tablename> - <fieldname> in declaring parameters,
    in the 'into' clause of select statement, in the 'from' clause of select statement, in the 'write' statement.
    I want to know how to replace this matchcode object table with the search help in the program.

  • Enhancing standard (single select)search help for Multiple value selection

    Hi,
    Standard search help for Business Partner (in cProjects) allows only single value selection for input fields. I want to make this multiple selection.
    Is there a way to do it.
    I used an OVS and built a similar search but its difficult to get the standard options like saving to personal value list etc in it.
    It would be good if there is a way to modify the standard search help to allow multiple selection. Any ideas??
    Appreciate your help,

    As far as I know you can't make a standard ABAP dictionary search help return multiple entries - where you get this sort of functionality the searches don't use the standard Elementary search help framework (e.g. organisational structure searches)
    Given that the WDA search help relies on these dictionary based searches, I'd think very much that you couldn't enhance it to return multiple. how you could even return multiple entries into a single UI element input field is also confusing to me.
    I'd suggest creating a freely programmed value help, it would certainly take quite some effort to recreate those personal value lists etc, but it could be done - I don't like OVS, but that just me.
