HH:MM Parameter in Selection Screen

[Former Member]

My requirement is to have a parameter taking input as "HH:MM" not "HH:MM:SS". It should also have a F4 help. Is there any standard solution (any API?) for this or do I have to write a custom F4 help?

Try this FM.

F4_CLOCK

No need to have any complex logic. Addition VISIBLE LEN would work for you..!

PARAMETERS: p_time type sy-uzeit VISIBLE LENGTH 5.

@gautham,

F4_clock is by default functionality of a time variable.

@naimesh,

visible length only shortens the visibility but the format remains same as HH:MM:SS.. and with same F4..as of F4_clock...

@Saurav,

you can replicate the F4 help with your own modal screen with listboxes. that will help i guess. little tedious process but will work.. mean while lets carry on checking more ways...

You can simply ignore last two characters...

what about F4... lets try this..

type-POOLs : vrm.
DATA : v TYPE vrm_values.
DATA : vw LIKE LINE OF v.

INITIALIZATION.
  vw-key = '1'.
  vw-text = '01'.
  APPEND vw TO v.

  vw-key = '2'.
  vw-text = '02'.
  APPEND vw TO v.

  CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'
    EXPORTING
      id              = 'P1'
      values          = v.

  refresh v.
  vw-key = '10'.
  vw-text = '10'.
  APPEND vw TO v.

  vw-key = '20'.
  vw-text = '20'.
  APPEND vw TO v.

  CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'
    EXPORTING
      id              = 'P2'
      values          = v.
PARAMETERS: p_time type sy-uzeit VISIBLE LENGTH 5 MODIF ID AA.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF SCREEN 100.
  SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF line.
    PARAMETERS: p1(2) as LISTBOX VISIBLE LENGTH 4.
    PARAMETERS: p2(2) as LISTBOX VISIBLE LENGTH 4.
  SELECTION-SCREEN end OF line.
SELECTION-SCREEN end OF SCREEN 100.

at SELECTION-SCREEN on VALUE-REQUEST FOR P_TIME.
  call SELECTION-SCREEN 100 STARTING AT 10 10.
  p_time(2) = P1.
  P_time+2(2) = p2.
  P_time+4(2) = 00.

Using data element ATIM ( or any data elemnt with domain HHMM) will create parameter with right output length

parameters : p_time type ATIM .
