ALV default layout issue

Former Member — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 14:32:08 GMT

Hello all,

I have a custom transaction for IW29 (Z copy).

The problem is that when I select some fields and save the layout as default, from the ALV grid display, it doesn't count. I mean I save it, but when I re-entering the transaction the old layout appearce. I checked the green check in layout administration but it still doesn't count.

What should I do?

Thank you in advance,

Diana

Hello Diana,

the problem is, that you can only create user-specific layouts in the transaction itself.

Go to transaction SE37 and execute function module ICUR_CHANGE_REPORT_VARIANTS´in test mode:

REPID your report

TCODE_DISPLAY your transaction

TCODE_CHANGE

SEL_SCREEN X

That will start the customizing transaction for default layouts (as it is implemented for the standard transactions in the customizing).

Best regards

Stephan

when the reuse_alv_grid FM was called I guess

i_save                            = 'A' "<<<< this might be causing the problem
