exit to delete duplicate entries from search help

[Former Member]

hi,

is there any exit to delete duplicate entries from search help.

Hi Peter,

Are you asking about a custom or a standard search help.

If you are asking about a custom search help, then you can create a search help exit function module (which has the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE) and within it put the following code.

CASE callcontrol-step.

WHEN 'DISP'.

SORT record_tab.

DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM record_tab.

ENDCASE.

Then attach the exit function module to the search help - Goto Definition Tab of the search help from SE11 and maintain FM in Search Help exit field.

Hope this helps.

Rgds,

Hi Peter,

I dont think there are any exits to delete duplicate entries.

Instead you can create your own search help by deleting the duplicate values. If this is fine I will let you know of the method.

Paul.
