Hi,

A search help is an object of the ABAP Dictionary with which input helps

(F4 helps) can be defined.

There are the following types of search helps:

o Elementary search helps implement a search path for determining the

possible entries.

o Collective search helps contain several elementary search helps. A

collective search help therefore provides several alternative search

paths for possible entries.

o Append search helps can be used to enhance collective search helps

delivered by SAP with customer-specific search paths without

requiring a modification.

The three components of the input help process described by a search

help are the outer interface, the online behavior and the method of data

collection.

The outer interface is defined by specifying the interface parameters.

They define the context information to be used in the input help process

and the attributes to be sent to the screen by the input help.

The search help attachment defines the field contents for parametrizing

an import parameter and the fields of the input template in which the

contents of the export parameters should be returned.

The dialog behavior and data collection are defined differently for

elementary search helps and collective search helps.

The behavior of a search help can be made more flexible than usual with

search help exits.
