If there is no domain for data element, create an elementary search help and add it to data element (further characteristics tab).

hii pradeep,

Try creating custom data element referring to standard one and give disciption as required. Use this data element in elementary search help while specifying parameters for required field

this is quite elaborated

you have to create a Data element...using matnr(eg)

goto se11 -> select data type : enter a name for the data element say 'BOMCOMP ..-> create -> now select Data Elemnt ->give discription -.> enter Domain name as MATNR -> give any one of the fild label..(can be same as disription).

now you use this data elent to define your internal table like:

types : begin of itab,

matnr type BOMCOMP,

-

---

-

---

end of itab.

data: gt_itab type standard table of itab

Usually, i use F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST (or F4IF_DETERMINE_SEARCHHELP) to find search help from the couple table-field,

If you start from data element use DD_DTEL_GET to get search help and parameter names, and use those in F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST.

Hi ,

I used that one but no use it's its not giving field help information . for field help if i use f4if_fieldvalue_request i get the F4 but i cant provide f4 for each field, I want the standard Search help or field help values existed at DataElement Level .

Fields SHLPNAME and SHLPFIELD are returned in DD04L_TAB_A exported parameter of DD_DTEL_SET_GET, if initial look a fields VALEXI and ENTITYTAB.

Don't forget that by using data elements, you and your report wont find the search helps generated by foreign keys relation, for data element which do not carry a search help or a domain with values or value table you MUST provide a table with foreign keys.

You may find search help attached to a table, view or field of any of those two.

e.g. : MEINS - domain as value table T006 (ENTITY TABLE) and table T006 has search help H_T006.
