Change sequence of search helps in collective search help w/o modification

Hello,

does anybody know if it is possible to change the sequence of the elementary search help tabs within a SAP collective search help (e.g. KRED or DEBI) without doing a modification on the SAP object just by using enhancement techniques.

Adding new search helps (new elementary search helps or othe collective search helps) or hiding already included search helps, I did by adding an append search help, but the new search helps allways appear at the end of the list and at the end of the tabs. I want to change the sequence so that the most important and mostly used will appear first.

Hello,

this topic is still a problem for me, does anybody have an idea.

Just to show what's my problem:

Collective Search help KRED does include a SAP append-search help ASH_KRED which holds the elementary search helps KREDC, KREDE, KREDM, KREDW.

The search helps KREDE, KREDM, KREDW should not be displayed, so I added another Serach-Help-Append ZKRED_CUST at the end of CSH KRED which holds these 3 SH's with the hidden flag.

That works, the SH's are not shown anymore.

I also added some other of the Original SAP SH's (e.g. KREDA) with the hidden flag and added changed copies of these (e.g ZKREDA) there to be shown instead.

All this can be done modification free by appends.

The folders of the elementary search helps are shown in the order as they are found included in the KRED SH and the append to this SH.

This means that the not hidden Sh KREDC from ASH_KRED is shown before all the "custimized" ZKREDx -SH's. But we need this SH not very often, so that I want it to displayed al the right-most position of the folders of SH's or at the most down postition of the drop-down-selection of SH's.

But I have not found any way to do this modification free.

The only way to archive this is to modify ASH_KRED by setting the Hidden-Flag for KREDC and add this SH at the end of append-SH ZKRED_CUST again.

But I want avoid this modification.

So, is there any way to do this without modifing any of the original SAP SH's ?

Access key is required to move your custom search help to top

Hello,

Why an access key?
I said I do not want to do an modification - I want to do it modification free.

That's the kernel topic of my request here.

I know how to do it by modification, but I don't know how to do it modification free.

Best regards,

Helmut

In case anyone is still looking for the answer to this question, this issue can easily be resolved by implementing BADI 'BADI_ESH_IF_F4_MODIFY_STEP'.

Do note, the BADI may differ for another collective search help. For example, Material related collective search help 'SD_MAT1' can be modified using another BADI 'COM_SE_F4_STEP_SELONE'.
