How to get the F4 help for a date field in ALV using Reuse_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY FM.

[sunilkumar_krishnamurthy2]

Hi Team,

Is it possible to get the f4 help for a editable Date field in the ALV. We should get the Calendar and user can select the same while inputing the value.

I am using the Reuse_ALV_Grid_DIsplay FM. Please advise.

If yes please let me know how can we do the same.

Thanks in Advance,

Sunil Kumar.

Hi Shambu,

The above link is based on oops methodlogy where field catelog parameters are passed for generating F4help.

But in my field catelog structure does not have the option of passing F4available.

Just pass REF_TABLE and REF_TABLE to field catalog.

lt_fieldcatalog-ref_table = 'SYST'.

lt_fieldcatalog-ref_field  = 'DATUM'.

Addition with Shambu's reply:

Add this to your fieldcatalog together with Shambu's answer.

lt_fieldcatalog-f4availabl = 'X'.
lt_fieldcatalog-ref_table = 'SYST'.
lt_fieldcatalog-ref_field  = 'DATUM'.

The link provided by Shambu was a working one.

Hi Jake,

There is no field F4AVAILABl in SLIS_T_FIELDCAT_ALV.

Passing the  REF_TABLE and REF_FIELD would add the searchhelp.

Thanks,

Just pass the Field catalog parameters as follows

lt_fieldcatalog-f4availabl = 'X'.

lt_fieldcatalog-ref_table = 'EKKO'.  " Table Name

lt_fieldcatalog-ref_field  = 'EBELN'. "Field Name
