Mandatory field of dictionary search help is not coming in web dynpro

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a dictionary search help written with the help of search help exit. Inside the search help exit following is the code added to make one field mandatory:

IF CALLCONTROL-STEP = 'PRESEL' .

CALL FUNCTION 'F4UT_PARAMETER_REQUIRED'

EXPORTING

PARAMETER_REQUIRED = 'XX_ID'

• NOT_REQUIRED = ' '

TABLES

SHLP_TAB = SHLP_TAB

RECORD_TAB = RECORD_TAB

CHANGING

SHLP = SHLP

CALLCONTROL = CALLCONTROL.

endif.

When I execute it search help directly this field XX_ID becomes mandatory with ? as sign and if I try to proceed without filling data, a pop up stops me. So far so good.

But when I am calling this search help in my web dynpro application against an attribute, I cant see XX_ID field as mandatory nor I get any pop up which stops me in case if I leave this field blank. What is the problem?

Any solution on same......

I would suggest that you enter a support ticket. I search for support notes and there are several on side effects of using search help exits but none that matched your description.
