F4 value help in table

Former Member — Fri, 02 Mar 2007 10:19:00 GMT

Hi all!

I need to create a function that can take a value help for a table filed into internal table without showing this value help on the screen. I need to transfer the table with value help to WebDynpro application. I found the functions HELP_VALUES_GET_*, but I couldn’t find anyone that returns the values and do not display them on the screen. Does anybody have an idea what I should do?

Thanks in advance,

Pit

Have you tried FM 'GET_DOMAIN_VALUES' ?

Hi.

Use

DATA: FIELDS LIKE HELP_VALUE      OCCURS 1 WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA: VALUER LIKE DFIES-FIELDTEXT OCCURS 1 WITH HEADER LINE.

 CLEAR: FIELDS[]
      , VALUER[]
      , IY17FI_KREDIT_FLT[]
      .

  SELECT DISTINCT FCITY
         INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE IY17FI_KREDIT_FLT
         FROM Y17FI_KREDIT_FLT.

  CHECK SY-SUBRC EQ 0.

  LOOP AT IY17FI_KREDIT_FLT.
     VALUER = IY17FI_KREDIT_FLT-FCITY.   APPEND VALUER.
  ENDLOOP.

  FIELDS-TABNAME    = 'Y17FI_KREDIT_FLT'.
  FIELDS-FIELDNAME  = 'FCITY'.
  FIELDS-SELECTFLAG = 'X'.
  APPEND FIELDS.

  CALL FUNCTION 'HELP_VALUES_GET_WITH_TABLE'
          EXPORTING
             DISPLAY      = ' '
             FIELDNAME    = 'FCITY'
             TABNAME      = 'Y17FI_KREDIT_FLT'
             TITEL        = 'City'
          IMPORTING
             SELECT_VALUE = ITAB-FCITY
          TABLES
             FIELDS       = FIELDS
             VALUETAB     = VALUER.

Regards.

Hi,

Thanks. I tried what you suggested. The function returns an exception but the transparent table is full!

Thanks!

I tried this FM F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST and gives me enough information but now I have another problem. Some of the fields have collective search helps and need to find out a way to suppress the pop up window with criteria. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks!

I actually did not need a function to display an internal table as a F4 value help.

My case is the opposite: I need a function that takes this values that the system creates and puts them into internal table without displaying the results on the screen.

Regards!

Hello Petar,

In the FM F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST

there is parameter called <b>SUPPRESS_RECORDLIST = 'X'</b>

So u will the values in the itab without displaying.

If useful reward.

Hello,



check this sample code
DATA F4VA LIKE DDSHRETVAL OCCURS 20 WITH HEADER LINE.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
     EXPORTING
          TABNAME             = 'TVKO'
          FIELDNAME           = 'VKORG'
*          DISPLAY             = 'X'
          SUPPRESS_RECORDLIST = 'X'
     TABLES
          RETURN_TAB          = F4VA
     EXCEPTIONS
          OTHERS              = 1.

LOOP AT F4VA.
  WRITE:/ F4VA.
ENDLOOP.

If useful reward.

Thanks all of you!

I tried (as I wrote in previous posting) this function and I like the result in the return_tab.

CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'

EXPORTING

tabname = 'ZTR3_APRHIST'

fieldname = 'LIFNR'

value = '6*'

suppress_recordlist = 'X'

TABLES

return_tab = tb_f4_help

EXCEPTIONS

field_not_found = 1

no_help_for_field = 2

inconsistent_help = 3

no_values_found = 4

OTHERS = 5.

BUT when I call the func. a window appears to enter more selection criteria.

I suppose that it is because the field 'LIFNR' has a collective search help 'KRED_C' which is linked to 11 search help tables.

The problem is that I do not know how to confirm this window using some ABAP code...

Best regards

use the FM RFC_GET_NAMETAB

Re: F4 value help in table

Former Member — Fri, 02 Mar 2007 16:06:31 GMT

Hello Petar,

Better U can do one thing.

Since the LFA1 is check table for LIFNR u ca directly select from LFA1 into itab.

Thank you, Vasanth!

I hope that this will resolve my problem in the exact case. Unfortuntelly this is not a general solution. I should do the same for 5 more fileds of differen tables.

Thank you, Eswar!

I will try that FM the next week, because I have no access to SAP servers at home.

Best regards,

Pit
