Hi,

I am using OVS search help for material field in my table control. My requirement is when i click on material F4 help then the default searhlist should be displayed along with the input search fields.

I have the code for this requirement but my issuse is i am not able to get the default searchlist when i press F4.

Below is the code i used. As per the requirement i am calling the method "set_output_table" in phase indicator 1. But i am getting the runtime exception as OVS set_output_table cannot be called in this phase.

WHEN if_wd_ovs=>co_phase_1. "set search structure and defaults

CALL METHOD ovs_callback_object->set_output_table

EXPORTING

output = lt_mat_result.

Could somebody please suggest me in which phase indicator i should call this set_output_table when i want to display default searchlist by pressing F4.

please suggest how to acheive this..?

Hi,

you can go for Dictionary Search help and activate Personal Value List. In personal value list tab, you can set some default values which will appear.

Otherwise you can go for Freely Programmed Search help and define your own view as per your requirement.

Refer Standard comp Demo_Value_Help for Search help.

With Dicationary Search help , it wont be possible to remove tabs and buttons.

You can go for Freely Programm Search help.

Hi Sireesha,

OVS help makes use of the Phase Model.

So display of input search fields takes palce in Phase 1.

and display of search list takes place in phase 2. So if you want to directly display serch list you can skip the phase 1 i.e. do nothing in phase 1.

Having input search field along with search list directly can't be achived because SET_INPUT_STRUCTURE method can't be called in phase 2 and set_output_table method can't be called in phase 1.

I hope it helps.

Hi Arjun,

Yes i agree. As per the SAP standard in phase 1 default searchlist cannot be set

but i would like to know whether its possible in OVS this kind of requirement...? otheriwse i can just for only pahse2 itself.

If somebody, who worked on OVS ,can give any other ideas on this it would be really helpful...

HI,

By default serch list , do you mean that if user clicks on the F4 button without entering any input in input field then directly the search list should be displayed which shows all the data?

[Former Member]

Hi Arjun,

I mean the default search list should be displayed when F4 is pressed along with the input search fields. ie., when F4 is pressed i should ge the input selection screen fields and also some default list should also be displayed.

Hope its clear.
