ALV Report, integer field

Former Member — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 12:30:28 GMT

Hi all,

I am developing an ALV report. in this report i have an quantity field( integer).

I want to display blank if there is no quantity for a particular record. but since it is an integer field it is showing 0 instead of blank.

Can any one tell me how i can solve this issue.

Regards,

Hi,

After data retrieval ,Use the Character datatype in field catalogue instead of refering DDIC datatype.

You can do one thing.

Take a field of type STRING. And assign the value in that field and then display the String field.

try like this

Wa_fieldcat-no_zero = 'X'

Thanks & Regards

Not possible. And if you convert it to string/character, you won't be able to summarize the data.

Edit : Sorry my bad. Yes try with no_zero = 'X'.

You can also set NO_ZERO flag of corresponding field in the field catalog. It will skip all initival values in this column then.
