Alv_Grid report

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have requirement where I have been asked to create a ALV_Grid report and the fina outcome of the report might have around 50-60 fields, but I read somewhere that there is some kind of restriction on the number of fields that one can have in ALV_grid, if that's the case then anyone of you please tell me what's the alternative for this.

Thanks,

Hi Rajeev Gupta, I am giving guarantee that ALV grid does not have any output width restrictions. But field width restrictions are there . Simple example is,goto SE16 tcode and take any Table which has more than 80 fields and display data using ALV Grid. Go ahead and develop ALV grid report. If you don't have sample program.Check the below one.

Hi Venkat,

Thanks for the reply, but the sample code that you gave me has only 4 fields i.e. bukrs, butxt, ort01 and land1. But in my case based on few selection parameters I need to create a report that might have 50-60 diff. diff columns just for one record.

Please advise

Thanks,

Yes Rajeev,

It is possible. All you have to do is, popoluate the internal table according to your selection criteria.

Let me say,

DATA: itab type table of MARA occurs 0.

START-OF-SELECTION.

SELECT * FROM MARA INTO TABLE ITAB WHERE <.....YOUR SELECTION CRITERIA.....>.

Now write the code as you do usually.

Even if you have 1 select option, you can populate the internal table and Hence ALV grid with numerous fields in the Database table.

I hope you got it, else let me know,

Shiv

Hi Rajeev, I gave it as sample program. I did not mind that u expect 80 fields sample program. never mind. Check this sample program where i used PA0008 table where it has many fields as u expected. Run and count howmany fields are being displayed. REPORT zvenkat_alv_grid1.

DATA:i_pa0008 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF pa0008.

START-OF-SELECTION.
  SELECT * FROM pa0008 INTO TABLE i_pa0008 UP TO 20 ROWS.

  CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
    EXPORTING
      i_callback_program = sy-repid
      i_structure_name   = 'PA0008'
    TABLES
      t_outtab           = i_pa0008.

Thanks, Venkat.O

There is restriction on only the number fileds that are to be displayed on Selection Screen. There is no limitation for the number of fields that are to be displayed on ALV Grid. I guess you can have upto 90 number fields be displayed on your ALV grid.

However if you have numerous fields , you cannot have all the fields on your Selection Screen as Parameters and/or Selelct options. You can group them in order to limit them.

I hope this will answer your question. Reward if helpful.
