Hi Sundar,

Look at the option 'AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR <PARAM>'. In this event you can build your own F4 and present it to the user.

Hi Sundar,

Here is a sample code for getting the full search capability for the positions.

PARAMETERS: p_otype LIKE objec-otype DEFAULT 'S', " for position
            p_realo LIKE objec-realo,
            p_begda LIKE sy-datum DEFAULT sy-datum,
            p_endda LIKE sy-datum DEFAULT '99991231'.

DATA: v_subrc LIKE sy-subrc,
      s_objec LIKE objec.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_realo.

  s_objec-plvar = '01'.    " Your planning version
  s_objec-otype = p_otype.

  PERFORM otype_get(rhstrpf0) CHANGING p_otype
                                       v_subrc.

  IF v_subrc = 0.
    PERFORM objid_f4(rhstrpf0) USING p_begda
                                     p_endda
                            CHANGING s_objec.
  ENDIF.

Hope this is what you are looking for.

Hi Vadivel

You can use the standard FM <b>"RH_OBJID_REQUEST"</b> for this.

Create a data element, or reference an existing one in the dictionary, and you can attach search help to the data element. It will then be available when you use the data element to TYPE your selection screen parameter.

can u elaborate little more

In SE11, go to or create a data element. In 4.7, the tab 'Further Characteristics' has the search help option. In 4.6C, this tab did not exist, but it is on one of the other tabs that come up. You can attach an existing SAP search help or one of your own.

Then use this data element to TYPE your parameter.

Hello Murthy,

SAP has not provided a collective search-help for <b>position</b>. You only have an elementary Search Help for that field.

The positions and their texts are stored in the tables T528B and T528T. These are customizing tables and would normally be populated by the SPRO transaction. I personally don't think it makes too much sense to ahve a collective search-help for this field.

Now, given this fact, what kind of an advanced search help do you actually require ? What are the criteria based on which you want to be able to determine a position? Based on your answers to these questions, you would have to design a new search help of your own for this purpose.
