## Abstract

In one aspect, there is provided a method for value help and check. The method may include receiving an indication associated with a user interface element, the indication representing a value help request for the user interface element; sending a request for a value help to a value help business object configured to provide the value help to a user interface including the user interface element, the user interface element bound to a portion of the value help business object; and receiving, at the user interface comprising the user interface element, a response to the request, the response comprising the value help. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also disclosed.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs having instructions which when executed by at least one programmable processor, cause the at least one programmable processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving an indication associated with a user interface element, the indication representing a value help request for the user interface element;
sending a request for a value help to a value help business object configured to provide the value help to a user interface including the user interface element, the user interface element bound to a portion of the value help business object; and
receiving, at the user interface comprising the user interface element, a response to the request, the response comprising the value help.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The computer-readable medium of claim 1, wherein the value help business object is configured to provide the value help and a value check for the user interface element, wherein the value help represents one or more candidate selections for entry into the user interface element, and the value check represents a verification of the one or more candidate selections.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The computer-readable medium of claim 1, wherein the user interface element is bound by associating, via another user interface, the user interface element to the portion comprising a node of the value help business object.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The computer-readable medium of claim 1, wherein the user interface is modeled by a business object.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The computer-readable medium of claim 4, wherein the value help business object shares metadata stored at a metadata repository with the business object modeled for the user interface.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The computer-readable medium of claim 5, wherein the shared metadata includes an identifier, a customer identifier, a product identifier, and a country code.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The computer-readable medium of claim 5, wherein sending the request comprises:
navigating, based on one or more associations, from the business object modeled and stored in the metadata repository to the value help business object modeled and stored in the same metadata repository.

### Claim 8

A method comprising:
receiving an indication associated with a user interface element, the indication representing a value help request for the user interface element;
sending a request for a value help to a value help business object configured to provide the value help to a user interface including the user interface element, the user interface element bound to a portion of the value help business object; and
receiving, at the user interface comprising the user interface element, a response to the request, the response comprising the value help.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, wherein the value help business object is configured to provide the value help and a value check for the user interface element, wherein the value help represents one or more candidate selections for entry into the user interface element, and the value check represents a verification of the one or more candidate selections.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, wherein the user interface element is bound by associating, via another user interface, the user interface element to the portion comprising a node of the value help business object.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, wherein the user interface is modeled by a business object.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The method of claim 11, wherein the value help business object shares metadata stored at a metadata repository with the business object modeled for the user interface.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The method of claim 12, wherein the shared metadata includes an identifier, a customer identifier, a product identifier, and a country code.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

The method of claim 12, wherein sending the request comprises:
navigating, based on one or more associations, from the business object modeled and stored in the metadata repository to the value help business object modeled and stored in the same metadata repository.

### Claim 15

A system comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory including code that, when executed by at least one programmable processor, causes operations comprising:
receiving an indication associated with a user interface element, the indication representing a value help request for the user interface element;
sending a request for a value help to a value help business object configured to provide the value help to a user interface including the user interface element, the user interface element bound to a portion of the value help business object; and
receiving, at the user interface comprising the user interface element, a response to the request, the response comprising the value help.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The system of claim 15, wherein the value help business object is configured to provide the value help and a value check for the user interface element, wherein the value help represents one or more candidate selections for entry into the user interface element, and the value check represents a verification of the one or more candidate selections.

### Claim 17 (depends on 15)

The system of claim 15, wherein the user interface element is bound by associating, via another user interface, the user interface element to the portion comprising a node of the value help business object.

### Claim 18 (depends on 15)

The system of claim 15, wherein the user interface is modeled by a business object.

### Claim 19 (depends on 18)

The system of claim 18, wherein the value help business object shares metadata stored at a metadata repository with the business object modeled for the user interface.

### Claim 20 (depends on 19)

The system of claim 19, wherein the shared metadata includes an identifier, a customer identifier, a product identifier, and a country code.
