Value help for select-option not filling selection field

I'm having some problems with a value help on a select-option. I've managed to get the value help displaying the correct values but for some reason can't get it to populate the selection field after I've selected a record.
I have the following call:
wd_this->m_handler->add_selection_field(
                      i_id = 'SHORT_D'
                      i_description = 'Program'
                      it_result = lt_range_table
                      i_read_only = read_only
                      i_value_help_type = IF_WD_VALUE_HELP_HANDLER=>CO_PREFIX_SEARCHHELP
                      i_value_help_id = 'ZPROGSTUDY' ).
where ZPROGSTUDY is a new search help I've set up with an exit to retrieve the values.
Any ideas ? Thanks.

Hi Malcolm,
The code you have is OK. I copied your code into a test program and it worked as expected.
I used a search help where the possible values are populated in the search help exit, exactly as in your case. The only time it did not work was when read_only = X, but that is obvious also from a visual point of view since the input field is greyed out in that case. The popup also tells you is in RO mode...
Does your SHLP work when you test it from SE11? Returns values?
SAP provides a lot of WD4A sample code, see for example component WDR_TEST_SELECT_OPTIONS look for
select-option fields > special cases > input helps > Non field-specific input help using search help

Value help for select options (pass the selected values to the select opt)

Hi everyone,
I created a custom value help for my select options.
It works fine, when the user clicks on the value help, my own view is displayed, and the user can select the required values:
lt_range_table =
wd_this->m_handler->create_range_table(
i_typename = 'ORGEH' ).
* add a new field to the selection
wd_this->m_handler->add_selection_field(
i_id = 'ORGEH'
i_value_help_id = 'MYSO'
i_value_help_type = IF_WD_VALUE_HELP_HANDLER=>CO_PREFIX_APPLDEV
it_result = lt_range_table
i_read_only = read_only ).
The problem is, how can I pass the values to the select option? When the user selects the values in my view, I have them in an internal table. But how can i pass these values to the select option? I suppose there is declared method for this... but which one?
Thanks

Sorry for the stupid question, but it seems I can't acces my attribute:
I create it in the component controller
NODE: 'APP_DATA'
Attribute: M_HANDLER TYPE IF_WD_SELECT_OPTIONS
Cardinality 1..1
Selection 1..1
Singleton = 'X'
I pass the values int he EDOINIT method of MAIN view:
* Get compnent controller API
lo_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
lo_controller ?= lo_component.
* Get the controler context node
CALL METHOD LO_CONTROLLER->GET_CONTEXT
    RECEIVING
      CONTEXT = lo_context.
*Get the root node
lo_node = lo_context->root_node.
*Get the child node
lo_child = lo_node->get_child_node( 'APP_DATA' ).
ls_app_data-m_handler = wd_this->m_handler.
lo_child->bind_structure( ls_app_data ).
After this code I test it if the binding is correct:
DATA: ls_test TYPE wd_comp_controller->element_app_data.
CALL METHOD LO_CHILD->GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES
IMPORTING
    STATIC_ATTRIBUTES = ls_test.
The lstest is correct_. It has the reference for the SelectOption
Now, in the SEL_TREE View:
* Get compnent controller API
lo_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
lo_controller ?= lo_component.
* Get the controler context node
CALL METHOD LO_CONTROLLER->GET_CONTEXT
    RECEIVING
      CONTEXT = lo_context.
*Get the root node
lo_node = lo_context->root_node.
*Get the child node
lo_child = lo_node->get_child_node( 'APP_DATA' ).
*Get the data from the node
CALL METHOD LO_CHILD->GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES
    IMPORTING
      STATIC_ATTRIBUTES = ls_app_data.
wd_this->m_handler = ls_app_data-m_handler.
The ls_app_data-m_handler is INITIAL. There is no value in it.
What did I do wrongly?
Please help
Thanks

Adding default value for a select-options in a selection-screen

hello gurus,
i have a report program with the following select-options in a selection-screen block:
select-options: so_site for MyTable-werks.
i want the so_site to have a default value once the program displays. can it be possible?
regards,
sid

Hi sid,
1. Whenever we use select-option,
an internal table of type range is
automatically created.
2. so, in fact, we have to put
record in this internal table.
3. eg. Just copy paste in new program.
4.
report abc.
tables : t001.
select-options : bukrs for t001-bukrs.
initialization.
bukrs-sign = 'I'.
bukrs-option = 'EQ'.
bukrs-low = '1000'.
append bukrs.

Dynamic value help for a table field to fill two fields, how to?

Hi all gurus,
In SRM 7 I defined a dynamic value help for a single field (ZZ_PROLE_R3) of my header custom table.
That's the code from WDDOMODIFYVIEW in the webdynpro /SAPSRM/WDC_DODC_CT, view V_DODC_CT:
DATA: lo_tabnode        TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE.
      DATA: lo_tabnode_info   TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE_INFO.
      DATA: tab_value         TYPE WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE_LIST,
            wa_value          TYPE WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE.
      lo_tabnode = wd_context->GET_CHILD_NODE( name = 'THCUS' ). "the custom table node
      lo_tabnode_info = lo_tabnode->get_node_info( ).
      wd_this->GET_VALHELP_ZZ_PROLE_R3( EXPORTING iv_guid = lv_guid
                                        IMPORTING ZZ_PROLE_R3_VALHELP = tab_value ). "this method returns the dyn value table
      lo_tabnode_info->set_attribute_value_set( name = 'ZZ_PROLE_R3'
                                                 value_set = tab_value ).
The method GET_VALHELP_ZZ_PROLE_R3 dynamically builds the value help table tab_value; such table is made up by two fields:
value : contains the value of the field
text   : contains a description of the value
The above solution works; now I'd like to enhance it. The custom table THCUS contains also a field called ZZ_PROLE_R3_DESC, which represents the description of ZZ_PROLE_R3. It is, exactly, the TEXT field in tab_value.
So I'd like to do as follows:
- the user clicks on the search help for ZZ_PROLE_R3 field of the table;
- the above described value help appears;
- after the selection, both ZZ_PROLE_R3 and ZZ_PROLE_R3_DESC are filled with the selected couple value - text chosen from the value help.
Could anyone help me achieving such a behaviour?
Again, a little request... when I open the above value help dialog box, the window itself has a label "Floorplan Manager application for OIF.." that obviously I'd like to redefine (e.g. "Role selection value help"). Is there any way to do that?
Thanks in advance

It seems to me - given that your code is in wddomodifyview that you are trying to have different dropdowns per row
- I'm not sure where you are populating lv_guid - but I'd guess it is an attribute of the row selected? If it isn't then I can't see any reason that you would do this code in wddomodifyview and not wddoinit.
Hi Chris and thanks for your help,
lv_guid is the GUID of the document's header; I need to pass it to the method that populates my value help table because the values in it are derived from some fields on the document. (the situation actually is more complex; there's an RFC call on the backend for which the document is intended for to retrieve the data that populate the value help...).
I'm quite unexperienced on webdynpro and terminology; if dropdown menus are fixed selection option that appears on a field, I guess this is not my case. I did a pair of screenshot to provide an idea of what the solution by now is, and what "I would like to have":
[Pre-selection (F4 icon on the field in table)|http://imagebin.ca/view/npIsaqF.html]
[Value Help popup for the field ZZ_PROLE_R3|http://imagebin.ca/view/8fZUh3T.html]
[Result by now |http://imagebin.ca/view/3PaqdvE.html]
[Result I'd like to have.|http://imagebin.ca/view/dExR0J.html]
Chris Paine wrote:
However - by your comment on the "value help dialog box" I am guessing you are using an input field? If this is the case then I would strongly suggest that you change/enhance the structure of the context node THCUS (btw, better coding practise to refer to it as wd_this->wdctx_thcus when using the get child node construct) so that you refer to an actual SAP ddic search help, if you then associate in the structure the value and text fields then populating the text field should happen automatically. Also you'd have the nice side effect that your value help dialog would be named after the associated ddic search help.
Thanks for the code suggestion, I'll apply that. For what concerns the context node THCUS... It is, by standard, a node which I can't explictly find in the context for the view V_DODC_CT. The problem is that ZZ_PROLE_R3 and the corresponding description field ZZ_PROLE_R3_DESC of the table must be filled with data retrieved dynamically @ runtime from the backend. So I guess I can't populate a val help referring to a dictionary table/field; I'd rather do as follows:
- retrieve what's the target backend for the document (to do so, I have to process the document .. that's why the header guid passed to my method);
- RFC call to a custom method that extracts possible values for the specific backend;
- bind the ammissible values to the value help.

I realise that this is rather a lot - so if you have any specific question please do respond - hopefully I or someone else will be able to clarify.

CHECK SELECT-OPTIONS not allowed in ECC6.0

HI,
Obsolete Statement 4.7 version and Ecc 6.0 Version,
CHECK SELECT-OPTIONS not allowed
The construct SELECT-OPTIONS in the statement CHECK is not allowed in ABAP Objects.
Error message in ABAP Objects if the following syntax is used:
CHECK SELECT-OPTIONS.
Correct syntax:
CHECK f IN seltab.
Reason:
This form of the statement CHECK is intended only for use during the event GET during execution of type-1-programs with logical databases. The statement checks whether the content of the work area, which was filled by the logical database for the current GET event, meets the conditions in all the selection tables that are connected with the database table read. The name of the database table is taken statically from the next higher GET statement in the ABAP program. Thus the statement does not make sense outside of an GET event block. However, the previous event concept of the ABAP runtime environment, that is, the previous way of processing logical databases, is not supported by ABAP Objects.
I want the simple example program for Correct syntax .Can any one send me with example program and pinpoint information of the statement.

venkat

F4 help for MRP Controller not adjacent to Plant

Hello Dear all,
I need F4 help for MRP controller on selection screen but only valid values for the plant value entered in the selection screen
If select option for Plant and MRP controller are one below the other on selection screen, then F4 help for MRP controller gives relevant values ony for that Plants entered.
But if they are not adjacent to each other F4 help for MRP controller gives all possible values. In such a case should we code separately for F4 help of MRP controller.
Any suggestions.
Thanks and regards,
Mohit

>That means F4 help will suppose to come automatically, but it's not providing the F4 functionality on the Time field. It's sounds like a bug in Web dynpro ABAP.
No, this is normal. There is no time value help in Web Dynpro ABAP.
From the online help:
There is no automatic F4 help for data element TIMS.

Say in selection screeen (ie is in select-options) i have selected record r

say in selection screeen (ie is in select-options) i have selected record range from 1000 to 2000 but in the final display list i sholud not get 1200 to 1300 records it should be hide how is it posible
Thanks
Basu

Hello Math,
There are two ways of restricting the records with 1200 & 1300 values in output list display -
1. Either restrict the records while selecting the data from database using SELECT query. This can be achieved by ranges table populated with the values, which won't select the 1200 & 1300 records.
Find the following code for this -
TABLES: TAB1.
RANGES: R_FLD1 FOR TAB1-FLD1.
R_FLD1-SIGN = 'I' .
R_FLD1-OPTION = 'EQ'.
R_FLD1-LOW = '1000'.
R_FLD1-HIGH = '2000'.
APPEND R_FLD1.
R_FLD1-SIGN = 'I' .
R_FLD1-OPTION = 'NE'.
R_FLD1-LOW = '1200'.
R_FLD1-HIGH = '1300'
APPEND R_FLD1.
SELECT * FROM TAB1
    INTO IT_TAB1
    WHERE FLD1 IN R_FLD1.
2. Select the data first in internal table first and then delete the entries having 1200 & 1300 values.
Find the following code for this -
TABLES: TAB1.
RANGES: R_FLD1 FOR TAB1-FLD1.
SELECT * FROM TAB1
    INTO IT_TAB1
    WHERE FLD1 IN R_FLD1.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
SORT IT_TAB1 BY FLD1.
DELETE IT_TAB1 WHERE ( FLD1 = '1200' ) OR ( FLD1 = '1300' ).
ENDIF.
Hope this helps you.

F4 Value Help for Bex Variable (BRAIN646)

Hi ,
I set a authorization variable which allow user to select in a Bex query . When I run query and click value help on that variable, the system keep send a warning msg like :
Value if variable ZVAPLAMS is automatically converted
Message no. BRAIN646
Is there any way to suppress this warnning msg?
Thx,
Jeff

Hi Sims,
I had also the same Problem (BRAIN 646). I've debugged the Query with transaction rsudo -> Execute User as "User with warning" -> Possible Transaction "RSRT" -> Start Transaction.
The Transaction RSRT is opened and you can now debug your Query by klicking on "Execute + Debug" -> Expand "Variables" and activate "Customer Exit Variable (Before)".
Don't forget to enter your Queryname.
You are in Debuging-Mode and set Break-Points (see screenshots)
1. Set break-point on FORM VALUE_FROM_AUTHORITY_FILL then F8 and get in with F5
2. Set break-point on IF l_i1 <> l_i2. then F8 and you get your cursor on IF l_i1 <> l_i2.
You may see, if internal tables "l_i1" and "l_i2" have the same count of rows. If not take a look at "l_i1", if there Interval value exist, if internal value do exist. If interval values do exist and in "l_i2" doesn't than you have replace your variable " ZVAPLAMS" with another Variable (selection option). It has to be "Selection Option", than only selection option variable accept single values and interval values.

Need to disable one of the select-options in dynamic selection screen

Hi,
we have copied the Standard program: RFDOPR00 into Z, my requirement is to disable one of the select-options in dynamic selection screen for ex: Reason code(User shouldnot able to enter anything in it).
Can anyone please tell me the procedure to do it... I had tried using at selection-screen but it doesnt work as it in 'LOOP AT SCREEN', i am not able to capture the Parameter name(screen-name).
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi,
Get inside your selection screen, by executing your program.
Now type /h in the field where you enter transaction code and press enter.
Now again press enter, this will take you debugger starting from your Selection screen.
You might be knowing this, still if you are not aware of this, this might be a valuable tip.
From here , you can trace your Parameter name.

Can you shed some light on how I could investigate this issue.
Your help is appreciated.

Hi
This is a bug in the System. Are you talking of customer fields / standard fields - search help ?
You need to raise an OSS message with SAP on this.
Meanwhile, try these SAP OSS notes.
