You can search for objects in the Data Modeler with the Repository Information System.

Procedure

Call the relevant selection screen in the ABAP Repository Information System.

The standard selections for the object class in question are displayed. The maximum number of hits to be selected is also shown. These values are preset in your user settings.

If you want to display all the objects from a particular object class, enter * in the first search field on the first line. Then choose Program Execute. A list corresponding to your selection will be output.

If you wish to search using fields that are not included in the standard selections, you can display all available selections for a particular object class. To do so, choose All selections. The additional selection options are now displayed underneath the standard selections.

To search for objects with particular attributes, you have to make the relevant entries in the search fields provided. You can determine the way in which these entries are analyzed using the arrow pushbutton next to the input field.

You can search for single values or for ranges of values. If you want to search for an object with a specific attribute, it is sufficient to enter this attribute.

Example

If you want to search for all data models with names starting with U, it is sufficient to enter U* in the field Data model. The Pattrn selection option is then selected automatically.

If you want to search for all data models that have names starting with a letter before U and after X in the alphabet, on the line Data model you must enter U in the first field and press the arrow pushbutton. A dialog box appears. In the second field, enter X. Position the cursor on each field and choose Options. Select the relevant search criteria and start the search.
