Problem with search help and date fields

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

I have two text fields and to each i assigned cacs_calendar search help.

It works well normally but if i make text box output only then i cannot select date.

I want that text box in its disabled form can be used to select date from cacs_calendar search help

that i assigned.User should not provide manual input which means fiedls should be otherwise listed in grey.

Hi,

If your field is output only then there is no point of giving a search help in it because anyways you can not enter a value in it .

Dear i say, if i assign output only ,only in that case i can see only search helps but i cannot

select values from those.I want that fields in its disabled form should allow me to select values.

If my query is not clear.

I am saying that keeping text box in disable form, can i call a standard search help that allows me to

select value in disabled text box preventing manual input and allowing only input by search help.

Hi Aditya

If a I/P output field is provided an attribute as output only and though search help is provided , the values in the search help list will also be in read-only mode and u cannot select them at all, may be you can solve ur problem thru different approach.

when a manual entry is done with wrong value which is not present in F4 help/search help list and

execution is done SAP will by default throw error saying invalid value
