  • SAP Tcode: AD20 - Search help maintenance (for IMG)
    
    Overview: 
    AD20 is a SAP transaction code used to maintain search helps in the SAP system. It is used to create, change, or delete search helps in the IMG (Implementation Guide). Search helps are used to provide users with a list of valid values for a field when entering data into the system. 
    
    Functionality: 
    AD20 allows users to create, change, or delete search helps in the IMG. It also allows users to assign search helps to fields in the system. This ensures that users are only able to enter valid values into the system. 
    
    Step-by-step How to Use: 
    1. Enter transaction code AD20 into the command field. 
    2. Select “Create”, “Change”, or “Delete” depending on what action you want to take with the search help. 
    3. Enter the name of the search help you want to create, change, or delete. 
    4. If creating a new search help, enter the description and select the type of search help you want to create (e.g., elementary, collective). 
    5. If changing an existing search help, enter the new description and select the type of search help you want to create (e.g., elementary, collective). 
    6. If deleting an existing search help, confirm that you want to delete it by selecting “Yes”. 
    7. Save your changes by selecting “Save” in the toolbar at the top of the screen. 
    
    Other Recommendations: 
    It is recommended that users test their changes before saving them in order to ensure that they are working as expected. Additionally, it is important to note that changes made using AD20 will only take effect after a system restart has been performed.
