ALV Grid - User Defined Buttons

[Former Member]

Hi there,

I am new to SAP and ABAP and this is my first time using SCN so hopefully someone can help me!

I am trying to change the standard buttons on an ALV grid. There seem to be a few different ways of doing this but the way I have been trying to implement involves copying the GUI Status from another program (I have tried using SAPLKKBL)

After successfully copying the GUI status I have added some code to set the status within my Z program (Z_CHANGE_ICONS_TEST).

I have followed the instructions in other discussions which advise to include a form to set the pf status and then to call the pf status using the parameter - i_callback_pf_status_set = 'ZSTANDARD' within the 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'.

I have done all this but when I execute, the ALV toolbar disappears as does the standard SAP toolbar so I can't even back out to return to my code.

If i remove the i_callback_pf_status_set then the toolbar comes back but I have no control over the icons.

I'm sure there is a simple solution to my problem but a bit of help/advice would be much appreciated as I am rather stuck.

My code is copied below.

Read this (old) FM documentation, you forgot to pass parameter I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM with the program name containing the FORM for I_CALLBACK_PF_STATUS_SET, I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND (for your function codes), etc. (Don't use sy-repid here but move it first to another variable) - so ALV look for ZSTANDARD status of standard program, not much success.

Also the documentation suggested to use a copy of status STANDARD from function group SALV. (or program SAPLSALV) (very similar to the one you copied)

Hi Raymond,

Thank you for your reply. I have tried using the status STANDARD from SAPALV also but having the same problem.

Could you possibly give me an example of how I should use the I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM and the I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND functions or post a link...I really am new to this and so I don't really understand your response.

Thanks in advance.

• Check in your system for samples and demos with transaction DWDM and ABAPDOCU.
• Using SCN search tool, you could find sample like ALV OM Template Program

Hallo Steve Allant:

Try this:

1. Update 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' FM call to include 'USER_COMMAND' FORM

2. Create 'USER_COMMAND' FORM

in your progrma this should look like this:

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*

*& Report  Z_ALV_CHANGE_ICONS_TEST

*&

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*

*&

*&

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*

REPORT  Z_ALV_CHANGE_ICONS_TEST.

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*

*& Data Declaration

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*

DATA: it_sflight   TYPE TABLE OF sflight,

       it_fieldcat  TYPE slis_t_fieldcat_alv,

       wa_fieldcat  TYPE slis_fieldcat_alv.

*****************************************************************

* Form Set_pf_status

* Notes: Called by FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

*****************************************************************

FORM set_pf_status USING rt_extab TYPE slis_t_extab.

   SET PF-STATUS 'ZSTANDARD'.

ENDFORM. "Set_pf_status

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*

*& START-OF-SELECTION

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*

START-OF-SELECTION.

*Fetch data from the database

   SELECT * FROM sflight  INTO TABLE it_sflight.

*Build field catalog

   wa_fieldcat-fieldname  = 'CARRID'.    " Fieldname in the data table

   wa_fieldcat-seltext_m  = 'Airline Code'.   " Column description in the output

   APPEND wa_fieldcat TO it_fieldcat.

*Pass data and field catalog to ALV function module to display ALV list

   CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'

     EXPORTING

       it_fieldcat   = it_fieldcat

       i_callback_program = gd_repid ( this is your program in global_variable )

       I_callback_user_command = 'USER_COMMAND' ( your form in your Report )

     TABLES

       t_outtab      = it_sflight

     EXCEPTIONS

       program_error = 1

       OTHERS        = 2.

Then your report make so:

FORM 'USER_COMMAND'

case sy-ucomm

   when 'xyz'

      then something.

  when 'abc'

     the something'

endcase

ENDFORM.

Set break-point on case sy-ucomm. Sy-ucomm have the "ABAP" cod of ALV button.

Please reward if helpful

Kind Regards.

hi steven

you can write in that i_call_back_pf_status form name(set_pf_status)  not  pf_status(zstandard) name and also u can write form pf_status at the end of program i.e after call fm reuse_alv_grid_display

Hall naven,

you can write in that i_call_back_pf_status form name(set_pf_status)  not  pf_status(zstandard) name and also u can write form pf_status at the end of program i.e after call fm reuse_alv_grid_display.

but form should be "set_pf_status" if i good understand. Not "pf_status". The same name , what is in  i_call_back_pf_status ??

Marek.
