Stefanos Moschidis - SAP Certified Technical Consultant - How to Create a Search Help Exit
-
There are cases where a drop down list depends on previous user input parameters. In this example we shall see a connection
of activity type to a subtype, during maintaining CATS (Cost Activity Time Sheet). We have the following table of relationships.
-
The connections of Activity types to subtypes have been maintained.
-
An elementary search help is created in the transaction SE11 .
In the search help the exit is defined, which is a function module (in this case FM ZPM_ACT_TYP_SUBT). The prototype function module is F4IF_SHLP_EXIT
-
When the transaction CAT2 is used and an Activity is input the F4 key on the Activity Subtype shows a popup list with possible subtypes dependent of activity type input.
