Hi,

Search help is an option given to the user for selecting the values when they press 'F4'. Like for any field we can give the list of possible values so that they can select any one among those.

You can create search help in SE11 itself and assign that to the specific field in table. Please let me know in case you need any more details.

or

Elementary search helps Describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).

Collective search help Combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
