it may be because you have used a different table name in your program......

you created the matchcode object for zstudent_aster.

TABLES: <b>ZSTU_MASTER</b>.

PARAMETERS: STUID LIKE <b>ZSTU_MASTER</b>-STUDENTID MATCHCODE OBJECT ZAN1.

hi anil..........

instead of creating match code object in se11 under the category 'other objects', why dont you create a search help for the 'ZSTU_MASTER-STUDENTID' and give the search help name as the match code id.

hi ,

I think what Alex suggested is a better way .

You use matchcode when you want a search help to be attached to the parameter . So for your purpose to be solved you can use this logic .

Here are the steps to create search help :

1. Now you need to provide the short text for your search help.

2. In the selection method provide the table or view name you want to use for data retrieval. Ex. ZMARA_01.

3. Select the dialog type according to your scope, ex. “ display values immediately’.

4. Then provide the search help parameters i.e. the interface parameters for the search help .

5. The ZMARA_01 table fields MATNR, ERSDA,MHDHB,MHDHT,MHDRZ are provided by selecting the table fields , by doing this the data elements for these fields are automatically copied to the interface from the selection method.

6. Now define the type of parameter ( import or export ) here for the selection and return of values in runtime.

7. Provide the positions to these parameters to specify how they will be arranged in the hit list display.

8. Now save the object in the respective development class and check the same for errors and then activate .Finally the creation of a ESH ( ex: ZSH004 ) is complete and can be used for providing the input help.

9. Provide the positions to these parameters to specify how they will be arranged in the hit list display.

10. Now save the object in the respective development class and check the same for errors and then activate .Finally the creation of a ESH ( ex: ZSH004 ) is complete and can be used for providing the input help.
