help required on search help

In my requirement I have a table for which a search help needs to be designed. The product hierarchy has 8 levels. To identify the correct product hierarchy, search help will be used by the user to select the level of product hierarchy and to navigate to next level of product hierarchy.

Please give me some idea to design this.

Hi,

You have to use collective search help.

A collective search help describes an input help process in which the

user can choose one of several alternative search paths. Each

alternative search path corresponds to an elementary search help, i.e. a

collective search help contains several elementary search helps.

Both elementary search helps and other collective search helps can be

included in a collective search help. if a collective search help

contains other collective search helps, they are resolved down to the

level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.

Like an elementary search help, a collective search help has an

interface of import and export parameters. The data is exchanged between

the screen template and the parameters of the elementary search helps

contained in it using this interface. The parameters of the search helps

included in a collective search help must be assigned to the parameters

of the collective search help.

During the input help process, the collective search help only controls

the user's selection of the required search path. The rest of the dialog

and data collection is controlled by the selected elementary search

help. If selection of the required elementary search help should be made

flexible (e.g. with context-specific definition of the set of available

search paths), the collective search help must be assigned a search help

exit.

Hope now you can design accordingly and i think this helps you.

Rama Chary.Pammi.

I know the definition of collective search help....

The user would be able to select the level of product hierarchy in the help menu and navigate to the next level of product hierarchy based on the selected level product hierarchy.....how to achieve that???
