Text for Selection Parameter

Former Member — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 22:10:03 GMT

I want to display text right after the selection parameter.

E.g.

P_MATNR TYPE VBAP-MATNR.

Once the user enters the materil number in the parameter and presses enter, the material description

should be display on to the right of the material number.

MV1234 (Material Description) .

Appreciate Help.

Hi Rao,

You can achieve the requirement by declaring two selection screen variables, one for material number and one for material description.

Make sure you make material description as non-editable field. Get help on parameters or select-options which gives all display options.

ON SELECTION SCREEN <material>.

write program lines which populates your selection screen field <material description>.

Best Regards,

Krishna

This works:

REPORT ztest LINE-SIZE 80 MESSAGE-ID 00.

TABLES: mara, makt.

PARAMETER: p_mat LIKE mara-matnr OBLIGATORY.

SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 54(40) comm01.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN.
  SELECT SINGLE maktx FROM makt
    INTO comm01
    WHERE matnr = p_mat
      AND spras = sy-langu.

  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    comm01 = 'Invalid material'.
  ENDIF.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.
PARAMETER: p_matnr TYPE matnr MODIF ID b.
PARAMETER:p_desc TYPE maktx MODIF ID a.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.

  LOOP AT SCREEN.
    IF screen-group1 = 'A'.
      screen-input = 0.
      MODIFY SCREEN.
    ENDIF.
  ENDLOOP.

  SELECT SINGLE maktx
     INTO p_desc
     FROM makt
    WHERE matnr = p_matnr.

Your screen must be smaller. You can play with the position of the elements.
