Value Help (F4 Help) provides users with a list of valid input values for a field to ensure accurate data entry.<\/p>\n

Types of Value Help:
\nAutomatic Value Help<\/p>\n

Provided by the data element (via domain fixed values or check tables).<\/p>\n

No coding needed.<\/p>\n

Search Help (SE11)<\/p>\n

Defined in Data Dictionary.<\/p>\n

Can be reused across fields.<\/p>\n

Manual\/Programmatic Value Help<\/p>\n

Custom logic using PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST and function modules like F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST.<\/p>\n

Used when standard or search help is not enough.<\/p>\n
