I think the requirement to duplicate the selection to the Description fields is just to spend time for no added value... And it's even worse for the end user, I think.

You should advise your client.

Anyway, if you don't, just use AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST OF, F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST and RS_SELECTIONSCREEN_UPDATE.

I think it is more than a bad idea, this will occur a lot of bug

If someone plays a little bit with the select option it will be a nightmare to manage it

will it be more easier and logical if i have them as parameters instead of select-options ?

No, it will be worse * 2.

Could you tell us what is the goal of populating the release group descriptions from the entered release groups, what benefit it is for the client? I only see drawbacks, for the end user, for the developer, and for mind health of everyone...

I could understand your requirement for parameters (*), but for select-options I don't see the point, It looks like a bad idea IMHO?

(*) and i would define such parameters as drop-down list (code + text)

Hope this help you.

You can goto Se11 and Create Search Help

Then during data declaration add match code Zsearch_help.

data: lv_a type ZData matchcode object Zsearch_help.
