Regarding DropDownByIndex

[Former Member]

Hi,

We had a scenario to get the internal value of the DropDownByIndex on selecting a particular value(Aerospace)

For Eg.. DropDownByIndex values has internal values like (Aerospace - 1005, Pharma - 1010....)

DropDownByIndex has Aeroapce, Pharma...

Now My question is how can I get the internal value(1005, 1010,...) of a particular DDBI value....

Please reply me,

If you use DDByIndex you have a context node that provides these texts. Add another attribute to this node (if not already there) that stores the numerical value. The selected value is the attribute value of the "current" node element.

Thanks for your reply...

I had created a value attribute in the same node and binded to the numeric value....

But how can the Aerospace (for e.g) has assigned with its internal value (1001)....

For your information...the data is retrieved from backend...

We have scenario where we get the data from backend.

We get the data from T106T tableu2026which contains industry values (BRSCH) and industry description(BRTXT).

We get the industry descriptions to a DropDownByIndex property in a view.

This view has the functionality to update into the backend with RFC.

Now I need to select a particular one of the industry description and when clicks on Save, it should be saved in backendu2026

But the backend RFC table(PA0023) take only the industry values (BRSCH)u2026

My problem is how to give a particular value of the industry description to the tableu2026

Please help meu2026
