F4 help using types statement

[Former Member]

Hello Everyone,

Comes across some interesting thing.

If i declare my paramater as:

<b>PARAMETERS: p_vbeln TYPE vbeln_vl OBLIGATORY.</b>

Here, F4 help does not comes by default.

If i declare my parameter as:

<b>PARAMETERS: p_vbeln like likp-vbeln OBLIGATORY.</b>

F4 help comes automatically.

The data element VBELN_VL does not have search help assigned in SAP version 4.6C and 5.0

Anyone know why system behaves like this way.

SAP tells to go with types than like.

So, how we get F4 help with types without triggering event At selection screen on value request for <field-name> and without using FM "F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST".

Regards,

reason may be the search help is assigned to the table field and not the dataelement

Hi,

If you are using TYPE you can use TYPE LIKP-VBELN.

parameters: p_bukrs type likp-vbeln.

Thanks,

IN THIS CASE THE SEARCH HELP IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CORRESPONDING CHECK TABLE VBUK.

Use vbeln type VBELN FOR SEARCH HELP.

USE VBUK-VBELN as this is the search help check table for this field.
