use the below function module, this will bring based on the number of fields selected in the layout

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_LAYOUT_INFO_GET'

IMPORTING

es_layout = gs_layout

et_fieldcat = g_fieldcat[]

et_sort = gt_sort

et_filter = gt_filter

es_variant = gs_variant.

DELETE g_fieldcat WHERE no_out = 'X'.

Hi once the Layout is set, you can use the function module 'REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4' to get the name of the layout that is set, based on these variants you can declare field symbols of type table and you can populate them with the required data.

call function 'REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4'

exporting

is_variant = ls_variant

i_save = 'A'

• it_default_fieldcat =

importing

e_exit = l_exit

es_variant = ls_variant

exceptions

not_found = 2.

Else in the ALV Output screen itself you will have a button to save the data, this will save the data based on the Layout that is selected. (You can change the layout and save the layout) after that you can download the data based on the selected layout.
