Hi,

I recently had this task and achieved it. Would like to share the easiest method.

Go to se18, implement the badi WD_BADI_DOMODIFYVIEW.

provide Filter values .., i.e., window name and view name where you the search help component is present.

and write this code in the method WDDOMODIFYVIEW.

DATA LO_ND_ATTRIB             TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE.
DATA LO_ND_ATTRIB_INFO    TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE_INFO.

 
*get the reference to context node info

   LO_ND_ATTRIB_INFO =  WD_CONTEXT->GET_NODE_INFO(  ).
   LO_ND_ATTRIB_INFO = LO_ND_ATTRIB_INFO->GET_CHILD_NODE( '<nodename>' ).

*attach the search help to the relevant attribute
   LO_ND_ATTRIB_INFO->SET_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_HELP(
   NAME = '<attr_name>'
   VALUE_HELP_MODE = '121' "(IF it IS DDIC shlp)
   VALUE_HELP = '<zsearch help name>' ) .

Activate and You are done. .

dont forget to say thanks the sdn way.

Hi Mano,

You can achieve this by creating a enhancement in the post exit of the WDDOMODIFYVIEW method of the Webdynpro. I have added the code for the Limit Shopping Cart.

Please use the below code to achieve your requirement.

CONSTANTS: lc_attribute TYPE string VALUE <Enter the field name>

                     lc_help_mode TYPE i VALUE '121'.

DATA lon_limit_item TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.

DATA lon_limit_item_info TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.

*& I have used the below code for Limit Shopping cart, you need to use the variables

*& based on your requirement.

  lon_limit_item = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_limit_item ).

  lon_limit_item_info = lon_limit_item->get_node_info( ).

** set search help

CALL METHOD lon_limit_item_info->set_attribute_value_help

    EXPORTING

      name                  = lc_attribute

      value_help_mode = lc_help_mode

      value_help           = <Pass your Z search help here>

Activate this code and you will see that your standard search help is replaced with a Z search help.

Hello Mano,

In SRM there are two BAdI's for F4

BBP_F4_READ_ON_EXIT

BBP_F4_READ_ON_ENTRY

Please use them for your requirements.

Best regards,

Rohit

Hello Mano,

Why you don't try to create a new field with your custom search-help?

After updating the field you can copy that entry to standard field (make it invisible too).
