Dear All,
I often face a problem while searching ,
if names are not entered in exact case, it does not provide even existing data.
pls suggest so that i can make input fields on selection screen case insensitive

yes..while searching ...if names are not entered in exact case, it does not provide even existing data.So whenever you search type first letter in capital and remaining in small..then you will get.
example:
if you want to search for purchase order..type as Purchase like this...it may helps you.
Reward if useful.

Hi Lalit,
In my opinion it depends on the table in which you are searching. In the domain of the table field, we can define whether it is case sensitive or non-sensitive. Mostly all character fields are case sensitive. So you have to enter the proper text while searching.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi all,
Thanks for quick reply.
All sugggestions are right but hitting to different aspect.
now i need to claborate my case.
I am supporting SAP erecruitment module.
While registering online , External candidates enter their name in any case by mistake or by haste.
Recruiters when search candidates using EP interface, for example, if he enters first name as Lalit , then he gets only Lalit as first name. If there are others like lalit, laliT, LAlit, LALIt etc , these names dont come in search results. thus this makes system a little bit inefficient .
I need , if recruiter enters lalit, he should get lalit of any case.

Hi,
Use the addition lower case while defining the Select-options. just have a lokk at the following pgm:
REPORT ZRBC100.
*
tables mseg.
select-options: x for mseg-lgort lower case.
Data: w_ii type i.
*
break-point.
w_ii = w_ii + 1.
I hope this helps,
Regards

Hi raju,
Suppose recruiter enters Raju, then as per your code it will be converted to raju.
If candidate registered his name as RAju, then search will not include this.
For your information , Recruiters use customised SAP application while candidates use Standard.
So we can only apply something on recruiter level as of now.

Hi,
while selecting data, translate all the field values to upper or lower case using translate keyword and then match the data with the corresponding records in the table.
Thanks & Regards,
