search help

Former Member — Wed, 27 Jun 2007 08:57:00 GMT

Hello,

I'm having some difficulties with a search help : It works fine, but whenever I want to select a result (double click it), the search help closes, but it doesn't return a result. I noticed that in the result field the field that need to be returned doesn 't have another color, where this is the case in other search helps. Can anyone help me on this ?

I posted this question earlier, but my info wasn 't that clear at that time....

1) Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).

2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.

3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.

4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.

5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.

6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.

Go to the serch help you created in T.Code SE11 & take in the change mode.

Make sure the both Import Parameter (IMP) & Export Parameter (EXP) is checked for the field for which you want the result passed back to the screen.

It's a search help I created in SE11, the parameter that has to be returned is marked as export-parameter...

Is this correct ?

It was part of a collective search help, and I forgot to assign the parameter there.

Now it works.. I feel so stupid..

Thanks for the help !!
