Search Birthday for the businesspartner

[l_molenaar]

Hello,

I have a problem and i hope anyone can help.

In the student masterdate (PIQSTM) tabpage "Related persons" Here you can search for a related person (button create the relationship).

Here you get a search window for the business partner. Here on tabpage "Advanced Search for Business Partner Using Search Enige" you can search for a BP via the Date of Birth.

When i enter a date of birth here and exicute the search i get the message:

"Input help was canceled"

How can i solve this so i can search via date of birth.

Thanks for answering.

Hi Molenaar,

The required index has to be created in the search engine in transaction SES_ADMIN.

The index was required for:

Business object = BUS1006

Object type = 1

The search engine indexes are defined for each business object and type. If the field Object Type above contains no value, then no index exists for any type of the business object. If the field Business Object above contains no value, then a cross-object search was requested.

Dear Sravan,

Can you confirm that we have to install a (stand-alone) TREX server to use the transaction SES_ADMIN? Or are there other options?

Thanks in advance for your answer!

Best regards,

Hi Custers,

Yes, you need to install a TREX server because search engine is a service of the TREX, and an RFC

connection need to be established with the target server in transaction SM59.

Luaks,

Is the Business Partner you are searching for also a student? If so, you can also just use the search option 'Search by Student', where Date of Birth is just a standard search field.

Also, if you aren't able to use TREX, you could create your own search help for the business partner.

Hello,

We have installed a TREX server. And when we are searching we get the proper search result.

The only problem is that when we want to select a BP we get the message "Input help was canceled"

Does anyone have any idea why?

Thanks a lot!
