why my new custom field in lead search result view is not available in configuration?

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I need to bring some field from related BO to Lead search result list. So, I open the CN RESULT of BT108S_LEA/Result, and created a new attribute linking to the related BO / attribute. After the creation, I can see the new field is added to the context node in View Structure tab. Now when I go to the Configuration Tab, I do NOT see the new field as available fields in the left hand side, thus not able to bring the new fields to the result UI.

I also tried to assign the new field to the designer layer (BT108_LEA / RESULT), it does not help.

Based on my understanding, this way to bring new fields on search result should work, but .....

I am on CRM 7.02. Anyone enhanced the search result could help?

Thank you very much.

Have you checked that Deactivate Hiding of fields in design layer is active. Path SPRO->CRM->UI Framework->Design Layer.

Thanks, Shobhit.

Forgot this switch, I've done this before, but forgot it.

Anyway, full points awarded, and thanks for the quick help.

HI Shobhit

maybe you can help further.

I added a model attribute linked to related BO. I set breakpoint in the getter of the new field. However when I run web UI, and click on the search button, search result is listed without stopping at my breakpoint. If i set breakpoint in other getter of another SAP attribtute, the program stops here. But not at my custom field, do you know why this happens? seems weird to me.

Thanks

Have you added the new field in the UI ?...it should trigger if the field is visible on UI

Check method GET_S_EXT as well in the CN

Hi Shobhit

thanks. Actually it was GET_S_STRUCT that was called.

But the real reason why it was not called is because some stupid misconfig, our enhancement set was not configured for the new client. After I corrected it, it works fine jsut as expected.

Thanks agin. Point awarded.
