matchcode on field exit

Former Member — Thu, 19 Oct 2006 21:06:29 GMT

What are the possible ways to add a matchcode to a standard SAP program if the field doesnt have a matchcode associated and there is no ON VALUE-REQUEST event defined in the dynpro?

Is it possible to create a matchcode using a field exit?

Thanks

You can create a Search help and assign it to the particular field in your program.

No! It's not possible.

You should do:

- Or to change the dynpro and assign your serch help to that field;

- Or if the field belong to a dictionary structure, assign your search help to that field in dictionary

Anyway you have to change a std object.

In same cases there is BADI to add your search help to certain fields in standard SAP transactions. If there is no such BADI, you can try GuiXT...

What about calling F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST or HELP_VALUES_GET_WITH_TABLE from the field exit? Would this work? I'm going to try it and return.

U can use that fms only un the POV process or AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST event, so can't use them in field-exit.

U have to change the program if you want to use them, because it means you want to manage the matchcode programmatically.

Hi Fernando,

Could you solve your problem? (adding custom Matchcode to standard field in standard transaction) without modify standard SAP?

I got same problem as you.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Max,

What about the previous comment from Tomasz?

I still haven't looked for such a BADI, but it sounds logic/reasonable.

Thanks in advance.

José Gabriel.
