Custom Search IView - how to display zero records in result set iview

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have developed Custom search IView using Webdynpro, i have used "getRecordsByIds" event.

i have used java apis to do search on table and i am passing record ids of main table to the event , result is getting displayed in Result set iview.

my problem is that if i do not find any matching records, i do not want to display any thing in Result set iview.

WDPortalEventing.fire("urn:com.sap.pct.mdm.appl.masteriviews","getRecordByIds","&id=R5"); ( i have hardcoded R5 as record id)

Could you please let me know what value i need to pass in "id" to show zero records in result set iview.

Thanks & Regards,

Veera.

Hi Veera,

Try putting id as R0.

I undertsant the question is marked as Answered, but as a proper design, if the new search result doesn't display any match, you should keep the older result in place and just display a message stating "0 matches found".

If it is a specific requirement to clean the search table, please ignore.

I am using a similar approach.

Hi Veera,

As per my experience, getRecordsById command returns first record if the given record id is not existing in the table.

You can try compairing the record id of the return record with your given recordId... and then clear the resultset if the both are not matching...

Hi Arafat,

Is there any specific reason for using R0 as a record id?

There is no record in MDM with id R0, so it will return 0 records in the result if an event is triggered with this record id.
