search help

[deepikap-sap]

how can we assign condition for a particular field using search help in data dictionary?

eg: document category and document type are the 2 field

If I gave doc.cat as 'A' based on doc.cat, I want to get only the details of doc.type based on doc cat 'A'.

this can be achieve only through data dictionary.

Hello,

Could you please add details like the system you are working on is R/3 or S/4 HANA? and where are you trying to insert this condition like on a Standard field/Custom field, Standard Search help/New Search help etc.. These details would help you get appropriate responses..

Regards,
Vijay

I'm using R/3 System only ,

I want to insert in custom field which is refers to standard data element and using new search help.

You may have already found a way to do this.. If not, read on..
If the field is custom then you should be able to attach the Custom Search Help to it.. You can add conditions to control what values are displayed on the Custom search help output via the Search Help Exit.. In case you are not aware, there should be a lot of information in the forum or over the internet on how to create and use a Search Help Exit..

PS: Wasn't on the system for a while hence the delayed response..

Vijay

On SE11 on your table/stucture definition, select the field to link to the search help and press the 'search help' function (right of foreign keys icon) there you can link fields of the ddic structure to parameters of the search help, then if your dynpro use ddic reference the search help should receice those values to restrict the search.
