ALV on SPOOL

[Former Member]

Hi gurus.

I've a FM that shows an ALV; but I need to print this ALV on SPOOL.

Using 'is_print' parameters on REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY function; I can do this; but a window with print params appears. I need to write the list on SPOOL directly, without any windows params.

Could yo send me some help?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

In the FM 'SET_PRINT_PARAMETERS' ...pass the flag for NO_DIALOG and set the print parameters desired in the program itself

Hi,

u have to use the FM 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS' like this...

Declaration of local constants 
CONSTANTS : LC_PAART LIKE SY-PAART VALUE 'X_65_132', " Paper Format
LC_LOCL TYPE SYPDEST VALUE 'LOCL'. " Destination


If print option is selected. 
IF P_PRINT IS NOT INITIAL.
MOVE C_X TO V_PRINT.
ELSE.
CLEAR V_PRINT.
ENDIF.


Setup the Print Parmaters 
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
EXPORTING
AUTHORITY = SPACE
IMMEDIATELY = V_PRINT
NEW_LIST_ID = C_X
NO_DIALOG = C_X
USER = SY-UNAME
IMPORTING
OUT_PARAMETERS = V_PRINT_PARMS
EXCEPTIONS
ARCHIVE_INFO_NOT_FOUND = 1
INVALID_PRINT_PARAMS = 2
INVALID_ARCHIVE_PARAMS = 3
OTHERS = 4.

IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
CLEAR : V_PRINT_PARMS.
ENDIF.


The printer destination has to be set up 
IF V_PRINT_PARMS-PDEST = SPACE.
V_PRINT_PARMS-PDEST = LC_LOCL.
ENDIF.

Explicitly set line width, and output format so that 
the PDF conversion comes out OK 
V_PRINT_PARMS-LINSZ = C_LINSZ.
V_PRINT_PARMS-PAART = LC_PAART.

THen u need to write 

NEW-PAGE PRINT ON PARAMETERS V_PRINT_PARMS NO DIALOG.
perform display_output.
NEW-PAGE PRINT OFF.

Thanks
