Former Member

Hi,

I am enhancing one of the standard reports, J_3RF_TAX_EXECUTE_CHAIN. Added few parameters to selection screen.

But I am not able to give text to the selection parameters.

I checked with Modification overview, its not allowing me to put text to custom Selection screen parameters.

Hi,

As mentioned above its an enhancement to a report. Requirement is to add paramters in selection screen thats been done by implicit enhancement. How ever description for those parameters to be given either DDIC or Custom one thats a challenge.

Mohinder ,

I haven't tried it but you can check for implicit enhancement point and write INITIALIZATION event and set the selection text

Hi,

You can copy the standard program to another program and add your own parameters, and then u can modify the parameters's description from the path 'Goto- Text elements -selection texts / text symbols'.

Mohinder,

what is not working.I created a implicit enhancement for the same program you mentioned and wrote the below code at the end of the program and it is working

INITIALIZATION.

%_p_ccode_%_app_%-text = 'Carrier ID'.

%_fr_year_%_app_%-text = 'Financial Year'.

Thanks

Hi Friends,

I had created a dynamic selection text for a select-option created using Implicit Enhancements.

The select-option field is for MARA-MTART and the dynamic text i had given in the code is "Material Type".

But my client wants it to refer to the data dictionary reference so that it will print the labels given there and especially in the logon language.

Generally it can be done by selecting the checkbox next to the select-option, available in the Text Elements/Selection Texts Screen of the ABAP Editor.

So how to check that box(i.e., how to refer the data dictionary reference) dynamically?

You might want to explore the use of the function module SELECTION_TEXTS_MODIFY. In many of the HR reports, it is used to modify the text of a selection parameter. Before you call it, you need to determine the language dependent text. If your parameter references a data dictionary element, you can use the DDIC function modules to read the texts of a data element. The function module should be called before the screen is output.

Hi,

I Implemented Code in Enhancement Spot, I added One Field in standard Selection Screen using Enhancement spot for MRRL Transaction, But I am not able to maintain Selection Text for that Field It is showing in Selection Screen P_XBLNR Like. If i tried using goto --> Text Elements --> Selection Texts it is asking Key.

Can any one help me how to maintain Selection Text for Standard Program using Enhancement Spot .

Hi Experts,

I have similar issue,  my requirement is for standard report SAPMV45A, I want to add new text symbols.

These text symbols were present previously but now due to upgrade they are vanished due to some reason. Could you please tell me how to add these text symbols to standard reports.

Thanks,

Balu
