SAP F4 Lookup Specific Properties

The SAP F4 Lookup control enables you to look up values of certain SAP fields directly through a form.

Note:
Notes:
  • The SAP F4 Lookup element can only be used against a Transaction script, and not against Query script fields.
  • The SAP F4 Lookup element can only be used against fields where an F4 in SAPGUI would return a list of values without returning a help screen requiring further information.
