Hi,

You can create a search help for a field which will display list of possible values from table. Is this what you are looking for ?

Is it posible to assign function module to search help ...if so what will the function module do ?

No

Hello Sam

> Is it possble to write coding in collective search help ?

<i>Answer</i>: <b>Yes </b>.

Collective search helps can have, like elementary search helps, <b>search help exits</b>. Within these exits you can change the appearance as well as the selection of the search help according to your specific needs.

Hi Sam,

- The user starts the input help to display the possible input values for a field (search field) in a screen template.

- The system offers the user a number of possible search paths. The user selects one of these search paths. Each search path offers a number of restrictions to limit the number of possible input values. These values are offered in a Dialog box for value restriction when the search path is selected.

- The user enters restrictions if required and then starts the search.

CREATION:

Go to SE11 Tcode

select search help

give the 'z' search help name and create

select the selection method ur table name eg : 'mara'

dialog module 'display value immediately'.

add the field whatever u want and lpos = 1 and spos = 1 and check import and export parameter.

where left position when displaying and spos = search position

and then save and activate ..

1) Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).

2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.

3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.

4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.

5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.

6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.
