hi,

If your internal table structure that you are sending to the ALV function module is same as that of the structure of the Z- table, u have created,then loop through the internal table and then append or insert records to your z-table.

Hi Pavitra,

Thanks for ur reply, yes my table is of the same structure as that of the internal table , but how the modified values will come in the internal table?

Thanks a lot for ur code,

But I am not able to get come things in the code like

1> What is gt_pay_lk

2> What is gt_payment_buffer

3>Can u please send the code for the following subroutine

PERFORM validate_all_records USING gt_payment_buffer

Re: ALV Grid Problem

Former Member — Wed, 31 Jan 2007 10:20:15 GMT

Hello Manik,

To modify database or ztable from the ALV grid,you need to do the following:

---You have to modify the field Catalog fields (fields that you want to make editable).Set the field EDIT as 'X'.For example if you want to make the field below editable:

ls_fcat-fieldname = 'CARRID'.

...

ls_fcat-edit = 'X'.

APPEND ls_fcat TO pt_fieldcat.

---Call the method below before you call the set_table_for_first_display.

CALL METHOD ALV_GRID_INSTANCE->set_ready_for_input

EXPORTING

i_ready_for_input = 0. ( For Display ) and ('1' for Edit )

After this put the set_table_for_first_display.

Now if the ALV data has changed,and you want to change the database or ztable,then in your pf status give a function code for SAVE button in the GUI.

In the PAI of the screen,in user command module write the following:

WHEN 'SAVE'.

call method gr_alvgrid->check_changed_data

importing e_valid = l_valid.

if l_valid = 'X'.

MODIFY spfli FROM TABLE itab_spfli.

endif.

(l_valid is a flag.

DATA:l_valid type c.

If you want to check if the user has entered any value on the grid, use the Method : CALL METHOD gr_alvgrid->check_changed_data.

This method returns a flag l_valid which can be checked to see if the data on the ALV grid has been changed or not.)

Beejal

Gt_pay_lk is the table which has the actual data for ALV.

No use giving you the structure of that because it is typed to a custom table.

you have to just have it as ur own data table,

U can ignore the logic of buffer, etc.

Obviously i have not sent you the entire code because it is voluminous.

I have concept of buffering, Db records, etc.

gt_payment_buffer is the buffer - u can ignore.

validate_all_records is also not important. just comment it for now. It is the vlaidation routine.

ls_pay_lk is a structure of the same type as gt_pay_lk.

ls_payment_old TYPE /nam/pay_lk,

ls_payment_del TYPE /nam/pay_lk,

ls_payment_buffer TYPE epay_pay_lk_str,

=> all 3 u can currently ignore.

Also comment out that part of code, because it is hte buffering and comparison against the old/Db record to see what data has changed.

con_checked is a constant. Value = 'X'.

hope it helps.

Hi Beejal,

Thanks for ur help but can you please tell me from where the modified data from the grid will come in to the internal table itab_spfli.

Thanks.

Manik

Re: ALV Grid Problem

Former Member — Sat, 03 Feb 2007 09:28:07 GMT

Hi Manik,

We pass the internal table itab_spfli in the alv method SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY.What you see on the grid(at the user interface) is the contents of the internal table.Internal table behaves like a work area.Any changes made to the grid is actually changing the internal table itself.Even if you have only an editable ALV and no method to make changes at the database level,and keep a breakpoint on itab_spfli,you will notice that the contents of itab_spfli are automatically changed.But these changes are not made at the database level.So if you execute your program again,the program will fetch data from the database table (not from the internal table) and you dont get the modified data.

In this code:

WHEN 'SAVE'.

call method gr_alvgrid->check_changed_data

importing e_valid = l_valid.

if l_valid = 'X'.

MODIFY spfli FROM TABLE itab_spfli.<<<BREAK-POINT

endif.

The method check_changed_data checks if there is a change in the internal table and then we can modify DB table as well.

You can keep a break point at the internal table itab_spfli and see that contents of itab_spfli are changed(at the GUI) when you edit the ALV but SPFLI is not changed till the "modify" statement is executed.

Regards,

Beejal
