Documentation

Definition

Specifies the name of the function module that you can use to call the search help for the fields of the calculation or validation entity. Only relevant when the field proposed is dependent on another key field. In this case, the function module automatically fills the required key field so that the original field can be used.

Use

Function modules are delivered as templates to enable the Cost Center field to be used for selection in the search help for the calculation entity and the Tax Code field to be used for selection in the search help for the validation entity. If required, you can also create your own implementation if you want to include other fields in your search help that are dependent on key fields.

Dependencies

Example

Cost center is a field found in the document header or segment table that can be used to define the calculation entity, but it is dependent on a controlling area. You can use the function module RFIDPT_SHLPTAB_000 to call the search help for the calculation entity and simultaneously fill the Controlling Area field, thus allowing the Cost Center field to be selected.

Similarly, tax code is a field found in the document header or segment table that can be used to define the validation entity, but it is dependent on a tax procedure. You can use the function module RFIDPT_SHLPTAB_100 to call the search help for the validation entity and simultaneously fill the Tax Procedure field, thus allowing the Tax Code field to be selected.
