  • Key Concepts: 
    Input help is a feature of the SAP WebClient UI (CA-WUI) that provides users with a list of valid values for a field. It is used to ensure that users enter valid data into the system. The list of valid values is based on the data dictionary and can be customized to meet the needs of the user. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use input help, users must first select the field they wish to enter data into. Once selected, they can click on the input help icon (a magnifying glass) next to the field. This will open a list of valid values for that field. The user can then select the value they wish to enter and click “OK” to save it. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    Input help can be used to quickly enter data into fields without having to manually type in each value. It is also useful for ensuring that only valid values are entered into the system, which helps maintain data integrity.
