Elementary search helps Describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).

Collective search help Combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.

steps

Elementary Search Help

1) Goto SE11

Enter the search help name and click on create.

2)Choose elementary search help radio button option as the search help type.

3)Enter the search help parameters, the selection method and activate the search help.

Collective Search Help

1)Enter the search help name and click on create.

2)Choose Collective search help radio button option as the search help type.

3)Enter the search help parameters.

Note that there is no selection method to be entered for a collective search help.

4)Instead of the selection method, we enter the included

search helps for the collective search help.

5)We need to assign parameters for each of the included

search helps.

6)Complete the parameter assignment by clicking on the push button

7)Collective search help offers the user to obtain F4 help

using any of the included search helps.
