F4 help for parameter field - no values defined in the database

[UmaArjunan]

Hi,

In the Selection screen, I have two fields,

One is for getting input for the month

Other one is for year

These two are created by using parameter statement

and it is not referring to any data base table fields.

parameters : p_bumon type bumon.

parameters : p_bdatj type bdatj.

At the selection screen i need input help for the month and year separately.

I cant use the function module becos no values r fetch from the tables.

or else to get the input help, can u please just me some predefined type declarations so that i can get by default the F4 help for this

or any other table which have the value range for only for the month and year.

Just it is created and the input values is passed to the function module and to calculate the number of days for that particular month and year.

i need this very urgently

Please suggest me in this , whether it is possible

Thanks

It will accept the input values from 01 to 12 .

I guess this is not possible dynamically.

programatically there is a scope to do this.

hi,

There is a event called

At selection-screen PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST for.......

In your case it can be :-

At selection-screen PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST for p_bumon .

< Block 1>

At selection-screen PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST for p_bdatj .

< Block 2>

In the block u can write the code.......

say for month u can write

parameters : p_month(2) type c.

Eg for month

At selection-screen PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST for P_MONTH.

data : begin of int_month occurs 0,

month(2) type c,

end of ont_month.

INT_MONTH-MONTH = '01'.

append INT_MONTH.

INT_MONTH-MONTH = '02'.

append INT_MONTH.

INT_MONTH-MONTH = '03'.

append INT_MONTH.

.

.

.

.

.

INT_MONTH-MONTH = '11'.

append INT_MONTH.

INT_MONTH-MONTH = '12'.

append INT_MONTH.

CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'

EXPORTING

RETFIELD = 'MONTH' “ Int tab field name

DYNPPROG = < program name>

DYNPNR = SY-DYNNR

DYNPROFIELD = 'P_MONTH' “ Field wer u need F4 help

VALUE_ORG = 'S'

WINDOW_TITLE = ‘Any description’

TABLES

VALUE_TAB = INT_MONTH. “ Internal table name

please reward points if useful.... and mark it answered.....

thank you.

hi Ratnakumar,

Thanks for your prompt reply,

I tried the solution given by u.

I loaded all the values to the internal table from 01 to 12

then i passed it to the function module.

in the selection criteria. , it i select from the F4 help , it doesn't displays the value for the month,.

Rather it displays only the empty window when i press F4

No values are not displayed.

But at the bottom of the window it shows only 12 entries.

wat to do for that

Please help to resolve this isssue.

hi,

In the internal table declaration this

data : begin of int_month occurs 0,

month(2) type c,

end of ont_month.

change it to

data : begin of int_month occurs 0,

month type char2,

end of ont_month.

instead of

" month(2) type c "

change it to

" month type char2 "

Please reward points if its useful and mark it as answered...:-)

thanks ratna kumar.

Now i can get the F4 help.

But from the development side, this kind of code increases the number of lines for the help itself.

However this is helpful to resolve my problem. But please tell me if there is any other feasible method to populate the values for the month from any fixed database tables

Thanks
