Issue in resuing OVS usage

Former Member

Hi Gurus,

We have an issue related to OVS usage for search helps in one of the Webdynpro applications.

In the Webdynpro application we have two options for creating a shopping cart.

When option 1 is used a set of screens would call and the fields are mapped to one structure.

When option 2 is used different set of screens would be called and the fields are mapped to a different structure.

In both the option 1 and option 2 screens some fields are common like GL account, Cost centre, Project and Work order etc though they are mapped to different structures and all the fields have search helps.

In option 1 the search helps are working fine with OVS usage.

However when we are trying to use the same OVS usage for the same fields in option 2 the search helps are not working and we are getting an error message saying OVS usage 'XXXX' has already been used.

Early response and leads / inputs to resolve this issue would be appreciated and ofcourse full points would be awarded.

Regards,

Teja

Same OVS usage cannot be used in two different views for same OVS search help

different usage should exist for each.

so define two usages and use them.

thanks

Hi Sarabjeet / Sana -

Thanks for your inputs.

Yes, same OVS usage could not be used.

We have copied the existing OVS usage say ZOVS usage and tried using it but system is still throwing an error message that 'OVS has already been used'.

We believe some minor thing is missing which is throwing this error message.

Please provide any leads....to resolve this issue.

Teja

Have you make all the changes in the On_OVS eventhandler method also

create an event handler again for the other views input fields for Zovs 's event OVS.

means repeat that step also.

P.S. if both the fields are on same view, we can reuse the OVS.

Thanks Sarbjeet.

We would check the same (event handler) and follow the same steps then revert with the outcome.

Thanks for reminding / letting us know.

Hi Sarbjeet,

We have defined the Event handler steps for this ZOVS usage similar to the original OVS usage.

Even then that error message persists.

Please let me know how to resolve this one or any inputs as to where would have been the mistake.

Hello Ramkrishna,

Ofcourse you cannot use same OVS Usage for two different input fields we need to copy the same OVS with some difeerent name and make use of it.
