Hi Vaibhav,

You can use search help exits. You have to create a function module with interface

same as F4IF_SHLP_EXIT. Do your validation during the callcontrol-step = 'DISP'.

Hi Vaibhav,

From you description I feel that you want search help for material code to be restricted on plant code field (as per user entry).

I have posted a similar kind of solution in one of my replies, follow the given link and look for reply posted by "<b>Manish Joshi</b>"

Hi Vaibhav,

Why are you pushing for a search help exit, even if you can do the same stuff without it.

Follow the procedure:-

1. Create a search help Txn SE11

2. Enter selection method - Table MARA

3. Assign Import parameters - PLANT

4. Assign Export parameters - MATNR...

5. For example have a look at search help - DD_SHLP_FD. It shows FIELDNAME based on TABNAME.

Assign search help to your field:-

1. Suppose structure for your internal table be ZSTRUCT.

2. Go to Txn SE11 - 'ZSTRUCT'. Select MATNR field, click on "Search Help" button

3. Enter search help name.

4. In proposal assign PLANT parameter to the structure / table field by which you have declared plant field in your screen.

Hope it is clear to you now.

Regards,

Manish Joshi

Hi Vaibhav,

Use table which tells you about which material is assigned to which plant in selection method or else join this table with mara to create a view and then use this view as selection method.

Furthermore, user will not filter explicitly. It will happen transparently no matter whether is the plant field a dropdown or a normal input field.

Rest all remains same as I explained.
