Implementing Data Search for Custom Objects

[Former Member]

Can any one have some information on implementing search criteria for custom objects.

I am looking to modify the drop down values and search criteria based on custom data model.

Hello Rajesh,

The following configuration activity might resolve your query.

Transaction: mdgimg.

General Settings> UI Modelling> Define Field Properties for UI. Select your custom data model and go to "Hide Field Names."

For the fields of the entity type, you don't want to come up in the search UI, check on "No selection".

"No Selection" : These wouldn't come up as search Criteria. "No Results List": These won't come up in final result list.

Best regards,

Shephalika.

You can handle that in the method GET_SEARCH_ATTRIBUTES of the interface, IF_USMD_SEARCH_DATA.

you can see any standard search provider classes to get the idea on the same.

Example: CL_SDQ_USMD_SEARCH_DATA_IMPL.
