ALV Grid save layout

[Former Member]

Hi all,

in a programm there is a ALV grid of type cl_gui_alv_grid.

When I run the programm, I can change the layout (hide columns etc) but I can't

save the changes I make. What do I have to do to activate the saving of the layout?

Which field do I have to set to activate it or what can already be set which disables the showing of the save possibility?

Greetings Fred.

Hi Fred

U need to transfer the name of the report and the user to the grid class in order to allow to save the layout:

DATA: LT_VARIANT  TYPE DISVARIANT.

LT_VARIANT-REPORT   = SY-REPID.
LT_VARIANT-USERNAME = SY-UNAME.

CALL METHOD ALV_GRID->SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY
       EXPORTING 
                 IS_VARIANT                      = LT_VARIANT
                 I_SAVE                             = 'A'
                 IS_LAYOUT                       = LT_LAYOUT
                 IT_TOOLBAR_EXCLUDING = GT_NO_CODES
       CHANGING  
                 IT_OUTTAB                  = T_OUTPUT
                 IT_FIELDCATALOG      = GT_FIELDCAT.

The user has to have the authorizations to manage the layout.

Hi Max,

thank you very much!

I already tried the i_save = 'A', but there was no variant, now it works!
