hi shyja,

for InputField we can provide search help by attribute to which u r ui element is binded.

if u r attribute is refering to dictinary field and if it is assigned search help no need to do any thing

it will automatically populate.

if u r attribute is refering to elementry data type.

at this type of scenarios InputHelPMode should be dictionary search help

DictionarysearchHelp u have to specify explicitly(dictionary search help )

hi shyja.......

for every attribute ther is an option to mention the search help value in the context... you can make use of that or you can also go for dynamic search help using ovs.

hi shyja.........

ovs is mainly used for dynamic search help.... that link opens perfetly for me...

this is it: help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/30/d7fa41c915da6fe10000000a1550b0/content.htm

it is always better to have standard search helps to the atributes taht is bound to your input fields than having ovs....

for every attribute you have different options of search helps... one such thing is ovs.... it automatically creates a compoennt usage nad you have to pass the respective values to it.

hi shyja........

there are two ways for it.....

1) using ovs...

2) create a database table.....

have a field cost cntre...

create a search help for this field....

assign it to the attribute....

and fill the table with respect to your company code.
