Same thing, but with interactive report, you can double click and drill down for more information, call a transaction, etc. You can use hotspots in your list display .

Classical Report ---> It is a simple report which displays data

Interactive report ---> As the name suggests , it can create 21 interactive lists, after we display the classical list , from there u can navigate to other list and so on

Hi sudhir,

Interactive reporting allows for the user to interact with the list. For example, the use can double click on a line of the list (which will trigger the event AT LINE-SELECTION); he can select a list line and click on a pushbutton on the Application toolbar (which will be handled in the AT USER-COMMAND event) or he can click on one of the function keys (which will be handled oin the AT PFnn event).

In classical reporting, there's no user interaction on the list. The program is executed and a list is displayed. The user can just view the list and probably print it. And the events (START-OF-SELECTION, END-OF-SELECTION, TOP-OF-PAGE) are not controlled by the user in this case.

Classical Reports can have these events, in the given order :

initialization

at selection-screen

start-of-selection

end-of-selection

top-of-page

end-of-page

In addition o the above, the following events are possible in case of Interactive Reports -

at line-selection

at user-command

at PFnn.
