ALV -grid

Former Member — Thu, 17 Feb 2005 15:03:04 GMT

Hi,

I am looking help on ALV grid (output).

By default in the output of report i get 5 fields using ALV grid.

After getting this list , i have a option to increase and choose more fields.

Let us say i have added 2 more to already existing 5 fields.

So from the next time, when ever user executes the report he should get the 7 fields as default.

is the possible with out touching the source code of the report.

regards

Satheesh

Create a variant , save the layout and make it default.

-> fill parm. is_variant and i_save

CALL METHOD grid1->set_table_for_first_display

EXPORTING i_structure_name = 'ZTAB'

is_layout = lay

it_toolbar_excluding = tb0

is_variant = gs_variant

i_save = x_save

Yes, you can save the layouts, as global, or as user specific. As well as making a layout a default.

On the ALV toolbar, there should be an icon for changing layouts and saving layouts. Experiment with these functions.

Is this a standard SAP program or a custom Z program? If Z program, is it that it will not let you save the layout?

If the program is not allowing you to save, you need to fill the parameters when calling the method.



  data: variant type  disvariant.

  variant-report = sy-repid.
  variant-username = sy-uname.

  call method alv_grid->set_table_for_first_display
      exporting
           is_layout              = layout
<b>        is_variant             = variant
           i_save                 = 'U'</b>
           i_structure_name       = 'I_ALV'
      changing
           it_outtab       = i_alv[]
           it_fieldcatalog = fieldcat[].
