ALV GRID capable to trigger multiple pages

Former Member — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 07:37:48 GMT

Hi All,

I need some help on ALV grid display.

My requirement is :

I have got all my required data inside my final o/p internal table.

The first 2 columns of my o/p int table are MATNR (material no) and Location.

Now whenever this combination of MATNR and Location changes, I need to trigger a new page.

Also at te top of each page I will be displaying the material and location number.

I have to achieve this using ALV GRID display. I have tried this out in ALV LIST and its working but its not working incase ALV GRID is used.

I am giving an example of the scenerio for clear understanding

o/p Intarnal table (I_out)

MATNR Location Details1 Details 2 Details3 ............

23 BE01 abc cde xyz

23 BE01 pqr efg rst

24 BE01 pqr efg rst

25 BE02 pqr efg rst

In this case, the 1st two records are for the same material and location details,

The 3rd and 4th record are for same material and Location details

and the last record is for a different combination of the material and location.

Hence the required o/p will be: (in ALV GRID display)

Material : 23

Location: BE01

Detail1 Detail2 Detail3 .....................

abc cde xyz

pqr efg rst

Material : 24

Location: BE01

Detail1 Detail2 Detail3 .....................

pqr efg rst

Material : 25

Location: BE02

Detail1 Detail2 Detail3 .....................

pqr efg rst

This is the o/p format that i need to achieve and that too in ALV GRID display.

Please suggest suitable ways.

Dear Ramesh,

If I understand you correctly, you want to display a hierarchial form of display. However this won't be possible in ALV GRID Display as the maximum number of rows that you can set would be three. There by restricting you from displaying further information.

For further information on the same please refer to the following link:

Hi Ramesh,

a grid control is a GUI control to be displayed on your screen. A screen does not have pages.

You should consider a TREE control.

Thanks for the reply

Rajesh,

You mentioned that "this won't be possible in ALV GRID Display as the maximum number of rows that you can set would be three" Please elaborate this, I did not get this point.

Clemens:

Can you please provide me some sample code example involving Tree control so that i can test it and see if it fits my requirement.

Thanks in advance

Ramesh

You can show the output like this only

put all of your requirement like -

Material : 23

Detail1 Detail2 Detail3 .....................
