Object Search¶
Search for ABAP objects by name — like the SE80 object search, but directly inside VS Code without opening SAP GUI.
How to Search¶
- Open the Command Palette (
Ctrl+Shift+P) - Run ABAP FS: Search for object
- Enter a name pattern using wildcards (e.g.
ZCL_*,*USER*) - Select one or more object types to filter results
- Press
Enter— results open in a quick-pick list for instant navigation
Tip: Save your preferred object types as defaults so you don't have to re-select them every time.
Wildcard Patterns¶
| Pattern | Matches |
|---|---|
ZCL_* |
All custom classes starting with ZCL_ |
*USER* |
Anything containing USER |
BAPI_MATERIAL_* |
All BAPIs starting with BAPI_MATERIAL_ |
