U have a material related search help and in one custom screen u are designing only for HALBS materials and there if you hit a F4 on matnr only HALBS need to be shown not any other material type.. then search help exit can be used for that purpose... like this there will be many scenarios where need of search help exit can be felt..

search in SCN for search help exit.. every post will be a scenario for u to read.

Hi,

A search help describes the standard input help process. In some scenarios we need to deviate in some points from this standard. To perform such a deviation from the standard search help exit is used.

A search help exit is a function module that has a predefined interface. predefined search help exit consists some logic, can be used according to the situation. the logic is activated through an interface.

Apart from that you can store your own program logic that manipulates the existing logic in the search help exit. Individual steps of the input help process can be skipped with a search help exit.
