- Enter a valid value or click on the value help/ drop down.
- You can observe the above mentioned behaviors.
Cause
You have declared the presentation mode for the extension field as ID&Description, and enabling ID&Description in SAP delivered screen is restricted.
Reasons for the restriction:
- If you configure it with ID&Description, you should have to create two field which represent the ID & Description , and need to bind description of data filed in data model, but for extension field case , it couldn't be enabled for such settings.
- Need to enable external Roundtrip to convert Description to ID. but currenlty it is not supported to create any roundstrip on extended screen.
Resolution
As ID&Desription on SAP delivered screen cannot be enabled you can use Business Configuration Sets in the PDI solution to acheive this.
