DH175
- Client field & may not be a search help parameter ?The SAP error message DH175, which states "Client field & may not be a search help parameter," typically occurs when there is an issue with the configuration of a search help in SAP. This error indicates that the field in question (represented by the placeholder "&") is a client-dependent field, and it cannot be used as a search help parameter.
Cause:
- Client-Dependent Field: The field you are trying to use in the search help is client-dependent, meaning its values are specific to a particular client in the SAP system. Search helps are generally expected to work across clients, which is why client-dependent fields cannot be used as parameters.
- Search Help Configuration: The search help may have been incorrectly configured to include a client-dependent field as a parameter.
- Field Definition: The field may not be defined correctly in the data dictionary (DDIC) or may not be intended for use in search helps.
Solution:
- Review Search Help Configuration: Check the configuration of the search help in transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator). Ensure that client-dependent fields are not included as search help parameters.
- Modify Search Help: If the field is necessary for your search help, consider creating a new search help that does not include client-dependent fields or modify the existing search help to exclude the problematic field.
- Use Alternative Fields: If possible, use a different field that is not client-dependent as a search help parameter.
- Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help resources for guidelines on configuring search helps and understanding client-dependent fields.
