In the ABAP editor,

Check F1 help for "SELECTION-SCREEN FOR FIELD XX ". Here XX is the parameter field.

Hi,

To maintain documentation for parameters,better reference your own defined data element as

Parameters p_num type s_id.

Here s_id is a data element.While creating data element,you can write the documentation for that field which is the only way to get documentation help ( F1 help ).

So,when you press F1 on selection screen for p_num field ,you will get the data element documentation.

For database reference fields,you will get F1 help through its data element.

Hi,

Create A Data Element for that parameter and provide the documentation at the data element level.

When u use that parameter in your program it shows the documentation done for that data element.

Thanks

Hi,

If you want to get F1 help for the parameter on the selection-screen then you have to define that field of type referring to an data element.

For eg:

Parameters:

p_num type MANDT.

for this the same documentation of the data element MANDT will come.

Parameters:

p_num type i.

for this no F1 documnetation will come.
