Hello

  1. In the initial screen of the ABAP Dictionary i.e. SE11, enter the name of the collective search help to which you want to add the append search help
  2. Choose Display.
  3. The maintenance screen of the collective search help appears in display mode.
  4. Choose Goto Append search helps.A dialog box appears in which you must enter the name of the append search help.

Hope this is helpful to you

Enjoying Coding

It does not work.....It says YAP_KRED_TAX already exists. Choose a different name

Hi

That object is only linked to the main object (i.e. the main search help), that means it can create once and used in the main search help only.

I believe you need to arrange your old append search help in order to include a custom one, in this way you can include the same search help in different APPEND search help.

If you can't do it, you can only create a new APPEND search help as copy of old one

You cannot use the same append search help in another search help. Rather you can use the search help "included" in an append search help and include that in another append search help. Choose a different name while appending and then include the search help inside in the "Included Search help" tab. This should suffice your requirement.
