How to add a Help search using another table

0 Kudos
634

I have a table with several fields. The client wants to have a search help on one field. But the information behind the search help needs to come from another table. i.e. ZZTB_STATUS_CODE is the field in the first table. The client wants the field tied to a reference table that contains a similar field (ZZTB_STATUS_CODE) and bring back that value. How can this be accomplished?

Hello Prasath,

That isn't what I'm looking for. I have a new view that was added to the Material Master MM01/02/03 process.

That field is for holding a Status Code. If I enter a value in that field and save, it's there. What I want to add is a pull down on that field which ties to another table of valid values. What I need to know is how do you tie this field to the valid values table.

Use check table or foreign key.

You could create a help-view with both tables and create the search help on this view (But first, you should have created a foreign key relation between tables as Pratik Kasralikar suggested. The primary key fields of second table should be available in first table) or use a search-help exit in case where no such relation between those tables can be established so you can display what you are able to code.
