Search Help: generated field

[former_member587969]

Hello,

I'm working on ECC 6.0. I have a custom table with 5 fields, one of them is key. Basically, something like this:

FIELD K1 ==> KEY
FIELD F1
FIELD F2
FIELD F3
FIELD F4

I need a search help that shows all fields of this table, plus an extra dynamic field with a concatenation of values of field F1-F4.

Basically something like this:

K1	F1	F2	F3	F4	DYNAMIC FIELD
--	--	--	--	--	-------------
1	A1	A2	A3	A4	A1-A2-A3-A4
2	G1	G2	G3	G4	G1-G2-G3-G4
3	H1	H2	H3	H4	H1-H2-H3-H4

Table is maintained by user using transaction SM30 and he will maintain only fields K1 and F1-F4. I don't mind how dynamic field is flled, but it must be done without any user action.

The problem is that I have no idea about how to do it...

Anyone can help me?

Thank you and best regard

you can implement a search help exit with the additional field or create a CDS view.

In the search-help definition, add your field (with some data-element) in the parameter list.

Create and attach a search help-exit FM, in this FM, when callcontrol-step is 'DISP', so just before standard display of selected data, read correct data with FM F4UT_PARAMETER_VALUE_GET for each required field, modify the returned internal table results_tab (concatenate fields) and update it with FM F4UT_PARAMETER_RESULTS_PUT, don't change the callcontrol-step, so SAP will then call the standard display.

Hint: Perform a where-used search on the FM and copy source code of a standard exit.

Thank you.

I already tried to do what you suggested, but I couldn't manage because of a stupid mistake.

I tried to add my DYNAMIC FIELD in search help, but I had an error when activating because I don't specify any function module in search help exit.

Of course I wanted to add it later, but first I wanted to solve that error. Stupid idea: as the error is solved exactly by adding the exit.

Thank you again!
