Using complex selection criteria (UI and dabase selection)
Solution
We use the SAP function module COMPLEX_SELECTIONS_DIALOG for the UI part and "range" tables in /guixt/dbselect .
Example
As selection criteria for a list of customers, we let the user enter an account number interval and a country code. In addition, we would like to give the user the option to enter multiple account numbers and country codes or to exclude certain values, as is the case in many standard SAP transactions:
If the user wants to add another account number interval, he presses the button to the right of the interval input fields and enters the new interval in the SAP standard dialog:
The "multiple selection" then changes to "active" and the new interval is selected when the user presses the "Start" button:
GuiXT Script
// create table variables
if not V[customers]
CreateTable V[customers] kunnr name1 ort01 landx
Clear V[customer.stat.*]
// range tables for account number and country code
CreateStructure V[rangeline] sign option low high
CreateTable V[range_kunnr] include=V[rangeline]
CreateTable V[range_land1] include=V[rangeline]
endif
// multiple selection active for account number?
if V[range_kunnr.rowcount>0]
Set V[icon_kunnr] "1E"
Set V[readonly_kunnr] "-readonly"

Set V[icon_kunnr] "1F"
