Screen tabs in NR16

[Former Member]

Hi All,

For outpatient visit scheduling using NR16 for appointment search screen is having three tabs. The data inserted in one tab is lost if user move to other tab and then return to previous tab.

How this data loss can be overcome. Requirement is to store this inserted data until user leaves the transaction.

Availble user exits are NR160001/NR16002 but not getting triggered during the screen switching.

Kindly help and provide some solution for the same.

thanks

Hi ap,

actually the behaviour should be a bit different. If you make entries on the Search tab and go to the Settings tab and back again, the entries should still be there. However if you decide to perform an Advanced Search, the potential entries on the Search tab will be erased as they cannot be combined. It is really an alternative way of searching.

If you like to re-use your search parameters the Search Variant should be used. This [feature|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/50/df813ba9cd3c1de10000000a11402f/frameset.htm] allows users to pick their most common search patterns directly from the drop-down list.

Hi Claudius,

Thanks a lot for informative response.

Is it possible to save information when user is moving from standard search to parameter and coming back without leaving the transation.

Since user-exit and enhancement point are not working would modifying the standard SAP code can help as user needs the above requirement. What could be the impact.

Waiting for ur expert comments.

thanks

Hi Anya,

yes, that is exactly the system behavior - I just tried it out in a demo system. If you enter some search parameters on the Standard search tab, go to the Parameter tab and then back to Standard search, all data entered is still available.

Hi Claudius,

Forgot to mention that the sytem data is available within moving from tabs until there is no change in Parameter tab if user changes the institute on parameter tab then std serach screen data gets cleared.

now is there any way to store this data.

thanks

Hi Anya,

I guess the system only clears those values which are no longer "valid" when you change the institution. For example, check boxes like "Initial Visit" or "Follow-Up Visit" or exceptions for certain week days are not cleared when moving from the Search tab to the Settings tab and back again. I believe that makes sense.

So sorry, I don't know about a way to change this behaviour (unless you'd consider a modification of the program).
