What does it do?
These additions for the statement SELECT-OPTIONS are only possible in the selection include of a logical database. They can be used to access subroutines for user-defined helps.



Latest notes:

If logical databases are no longer created, it is no longer necessary to use the additions of the statement SELECT-OPTIONS.

ABAP Addition

What does it do?
If this addition is specified, the program accesses the subroutine selcrit_hlp when the user chooses the field help F1 for an input field in the selection criterion. The subroutine selcrit_hlp must be defined in the database program of the logical database, where selcrit is the name of the selection criterion. FOR LOW or FOR HIGH can be specified to access either the subroutine selcrit-low_hlp or the subroutine selcrit-high_hlp , depending on whether the field help is selected for the first or second input field. The addition does not affect the other field. If one of the subroutines does not exist, choosing F1 for the input field has no effect.
If the selection criterion is defined with reference to a data type in the ABAP Dictionary, the field help defined there for the corresponding field is not displayed.



Latest notes:

The subroutines can be used in the same way as a PARAMETERS statement to program a field help.
ABAP_HINT_END

ABAP Addition

What does it do?
If this addition is specified, the system accesses either the subroutine selcrit-low_val or selcrit-high_val, depending on whether the user chooses the input help F4 on the first or second input field in the selection criterion. The subroutines selcrit-low_val and selcrit-high_val must be defined in the database program for the logical database, where selcrit is the name of the selection criterion. If FOR LOW is specified, the addition only affects the first input field, and if FOR HIGH is specified, it only affects the second.
If one of the subroutines does not exist, choosing F4 for the input field has no effect. If the selection criterion is defined with reference to a data type in the ABAP Dictionary, the input help defined there for the field in question is not displayed.



Latest notes:

The subroutines can be used in the same way as a PARAMETERS statement to program a field help. When the input help is selected, no other selection screen events are raised and there is no automatic pass by value between the selection screen and the program.
