Selection Screen in Query Designer

[Former Member]

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to create a variable without any reference to an InfoObject.

I need an input in the selection-screen which is not use for filtering. Only two values are allowed to be entered. For Example Input1 and Input2. The input will only be used to determine the value of a customer exit characteristic variable. Also, is it possible to limit the matchcode (F4) of this field to the values Input1 and Input2 only?

Please provide info on how to do this.

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes you can create formula variables without reference to any infoobject.

Create a local formula and then from formula builder popup you can create a new formula variable. Here you can directly take input from user.

Also, is it possible to limit the matchcode (F4) of this field to the values Input1 and Input2 only?

Yes it is possible,

I think the BADI RSR_VARIABLE_F4_RESTRICT_BADI is available in BW 7.3, and if you are not on BW 7.3 then you can check following link,
