Advanced Search

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm trying to create an advanced search for a custom field in the STANDARD BSP of the Opportunities. I need to visualize a pop up like the one for the product. I don't know which is the correct procedure to do this. I think that to realize an advanced search I have to create a new application layout linked to an application set, but how? In the search I need to display the list of possible value for the field and to have the ability of choose more than one value from the list (like for product) using the button CHOOSE.

I've already read the PCUI book but without result.

Do you have any suggestion? Which are the steps to create the application layout?

Thanks a lot,

Sara

Hi Shailaja,

I've created the application layout linked to the standard application set, but the pop up for my advanced search is empty. Which ID for documents and relations I have to use?

Thanks,

Hi,

thanks for your answers, but probably I've explained the problem in a bad way. I know the transactions SPRO, CRMC_BLUEPRINT and CRMC_BLUEPRINT_C, but I don't know if there is a particular logic to create the structures, if I have to append some particular field, which kind of events I have to use, etc...? I've tryed to copy and modify the application layout CRMM_PRD_M_ALL_F4 that refers to the application set COMM_PRODUCT, but I don't understand how the two applications are linked. Moreover what is the role of the event PRD_ADVS_PRODUCT? At this event is linked the fieldgroup PRD_OIC_CRM_ADVS_F4_ALL_01A that contains only one field. Finally, what is the ID for documents and relations?

Thanks you very much,

Hi Sara,

Application has a application set (which refers to the layout of the application). The names of the Application and application Set may differ as application set can be used for more than application.

In the application layout, we define events and their corresponding field groups. Field groups are defined based on the structures assigned to them that means, the fields defined in the structure could only be combined into a fieldgroup (if you need to have a new field which is not existing in the structure of that field group generally we would go by EEWB to append one). After defining the field groups you need to specify at which position you wanted them to be shown in the portal. The Events generally define the layouts along with their screen positions. For example: EVent INIT is the default event shown in the portal (which is for Search area, result areas).

Hope this is what you are expecting.

Hi Sara,

To create an application layout:

tcode: CRMC_BLUEPRINT_C->Application/layout->Application (create an application with Zxxx)

after creating an application create the layout.

CRMC_BLUEPRINT_C->Application/layout->Define application layout.

Do not forget to fill in the Application Set for any APplication

hope this helps you

Hello Sara!

I think that u will get more information about PCUI in the CRM Forum.

To generate an application u have to go to:

spro->Customer Relationship Management->Layoot of User Internet->Application/Layout->Application

Change the display to change mode and click on the button new entry!
