Search help exit

[TJRP]

Hi,

I'm having problems with a search help exit in version 4.7.

The search help is based on F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE. The problem that I'm having is with the hit list, incorrect values are shown in incorrect columns. The search help exit has been copied from a search help exit in 4.6C and the correct values are returned in the correct columns. I have search OSS and haven't found anything that is relevant can any one help?

Hi Jim,

Can u explain more the problem in details.

Do you mean that the search help exit does not drop down the required values? Or do you mean that the searc help exit is showing incorrect values for selection?

The searh help correctly gets the values which I can see displayed in table RECORD_TAB and the order they appear in the table is the order that I want to see them on the screen.

When the value get displayed they are shown in a different columns that I have specified in the position in the hit list of an elementary search help. the header columns are in the correct position but the values are in different columns.

Hi Jim,

This is strange. Could you tell me which specific object you have enabled the exit. I mean which search help object.

We have implemented many search helps exists never faced such a problem.

Let me try checking in our exits if i can find something.

The search help is KRED(Search Help for Vendors (Creditors))

The fields do not just move alone by 3 characters

I hope this helps

Jim,

Are there any custom include search helps did u check the parameter assignements and also can you post the code in the exit.

Hi Jim,

Actually we have implemented the exit for this and it works fine for us. The positions are what we have defined in our custom search help which has been appended to the std search help.

We are 4.6C and 4.7 both and on both the system we have this and it works fine for us.

i hope your exit defined is in the correct format?

FUNCTION ZF4IF_SHLP_EXIT_KRED.

  ENDIF.


*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
* STEP SELONE  (Select one of the elementary searchhelps)
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
* This step is only called for collective searchhelps. It may be used
* to reduce the amount of elementary searchhelps given in SHLP_TAB.
* The compound searchhelp is given in SHLP.
* If you do not change CALLCONTROL-STEP, the next step is the
* dialog, to select one of the elementary searchhelps.
* If you want to skip this dialog, you have to return the selected

* either to 'PRESEL' or to 'SELECT'.
  IF CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'SELONE'.
*   PERFORM SELONE .........
    EXIT.
  ENDIF.

*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
* STEP PRESEL  (Enter selection conditions)
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
* This step allows you, to influence the selection conditions either
* before they are displayed or in order to skip the dialog completely.
* If you want to skip the dialog, you should change CALLCONTROL-STEP
* to 'SELECT'.
* Normaly only SHLP-SELOPT should be changed in this step.
  IF CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'PRESEL'.
*   PERFORM PRESEL ..........
    EXIT.
  ENDIF.
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------

* To skip the standard seletion, you should return 'DISP' as following

* Standard function module F4UT_RESULTS_MAP may be very helpfull in this
* step.

* STEP DISP     (Display values)
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
* This step is called, before the selected data is displayed.
* You can e.g. modify or reduce the data in RECORD_TAB
* according to the users authority.
* If you want to get the standard display dialog afterwards, you
* should not change CALLCONTROL-STEP.
* If you want to overtake the dialog on you own, you must return
* the following values in CALLCONTROL-STEP:
* - "RETURN" if one line was selected. The selected line must be
*   the only record left in RECORD_TAB. The corresponding fields of
*   this line are entered into the screen.
* - "EXIT" if the values request should be aborted
* - "PRESEL" if you want to return to the selection dialog
* Standard function modules F4UT_PARAMETER_VALUE_GET and
* F4UT_PARAMETER_RESULTS_PUT may be very helpfull in this step.
  IF CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'DISP'.
*   PERFORM AUTHORITY_CHECK TABLES RECORD_TAB SHLP_TAB
*                           CHANGING SHLP CALLCONTROL.
    EXIT.
  ENDIF.

I have copied the function module from the example and everything appears to be the same.

Not sure what you mean about the appending to the std search help, could u expand this area please

Jim,

There is a additional field included ie mandt in 4.6c which needs to be removed, just a thought, is the whole row values are moving by atleast 3 values towards right.
