Finding Data Source for Fiori Application Value Help in S/4HANA Public Cloud

[siva1990]

Hello,

I need guidance on identifying the data source of a Fiori application’s value help in the S/4HANA Public Cloud. My requirement is to enhance a standard F4 help in a Fiori application.

Could you please assist me in understanding how to locate this information?

Thank you.

Best regards,
Shankar

Hi Shankar,
You can try to open the application`s CDS View in ADT and find such annotation:

@Consumption.valueHelpDefinition: [{ entity:
{ name: '{Name of a value help`s source}', element: 'Name of a value help`s fied '}}]

If it is not clear which service is used in your app, try to track it via browser`s console (press F12 and switch to console tab), find the service and inspect the CDS from it`s definition.

BR,
Vadym

In the Fiori prospective, we create views for the search help operation. Better to avoide SE11 based search helps and use CDS value help instead.

We can go for the search annotations to the CDS view fields in metadata extension and it supports many operations via annotations.
