Search help with 2 export parameters

In screen 1000 of my dialog program I have 2 screen fields - matnr and maktx. I would like to search for a material number and upon selecting a material have the search help instantly populate the material number (matnr) field and also the material text field (maktx).

I created a search help zmatsearch with these 2 fields and specified them both as export parameters. when I test the search help in SE11 it works as expected and returns both fields. I also created a structure called zdescr that contains the fields matnr and maktx

On my screen I have referenced both fields to zmatsearch and referenced each field to the structure zdescr but I still cannot get the search help to populate the text field - it only returns the material number.

Appreciate any feedback.

Thanks.

Hi,

Go to your strucuture zdescr, select matnr and click on search help button. Here for the MAKTX field in search help parameter, map the structure ( zdescr) and field MAKTX.

This will solve the issue. when you select matnr, the corresponding maktx is also populated due to above mapping.

Have a read of [Use search help to populate two screen fields |; which was running up to a couple of days ago - I think it is relevant to your problem.
