ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER)

Sap provides a set of ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER) function modules, which can be put into use to embellish the output of a report. This set of ALV functions is used to enhance the readability and functionality of any report output. Cases arise in sap when the output of a report contains columns extending more than 255 characters in length. In such cases, this set of ALV functions can help choose selected columns and arrange the different columns from a report output and also save different variants for report display. This is a very efficient tool for dynamically sorting and arranging the columns from a report output. The report output can contain upto 90 columns in the display with the wide array of display options.

The commonly used ALV functions used for this purpose are;

1. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_DEFAULT_GET

2. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4

3. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_EXISTENCE

4. REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET

5. REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE

6. REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE

7. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY

8. REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

9. REUSE_ALV_POPUP_TO_SELECT

The different steps used for getting the above function modules into use are:

Step 1

DATA DECLARATION

Sap standard type pools: SLIS, KKBLO.

Sap standard tables types taken from the type pools are: SLIS_LAYOUT_ALV,

SLIS_T_FIELDCAT_ALV,

SLIS_T_LISTHEADER,

SLIS_T_EVENT,

SLIS_SELFIELD.

Internal tables to used in the program declared based on the above table types

DATA: I_LAYOUT TYPE SLIS_LAYOUT_ALV,

I_FIELDTAB TYPE SLIS_T_FIELDCAT_ALV,

I_HEADING TYPE SLIS_T_LISTHEADER,

I_EVENTS TYPE SLIS_T_EVENT.

TYPES: KKBLO_SELFIELD TYPE SLIS_SELFIELD.

Step 2 (Optional)

SELECTING THE VARIANTS FOR INITIAL LIST DISPLAY (DEFAULT VARIANT)

The variants in the list display can be both user-specific and general. The user can programmatically set the initial (default) variant for list display.

The default variant can be found using the function module 'REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_DEFAULT_GET'.

Sample code:

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_DEFAULT_GET'

EXPORTING

i_save = variant save condition (A=all, U = user-specific)

CHANGING

cs_variant = internal table containing the program name (and the default variant---optional)

EXCEPTIONS

not_found = 2.

The user can also choose from the list of existing variants using the function module ‘REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4’.

Step 3

DEFININING OUTPUT CHARACTERISTICS: PREPARING DISPLAY FIELDS CATALOG

A field catalog is prepared using the internal table (I_FIELDCAT) of type SLIS_T_FIELDCAT_ALV. Field catalog containing descriptions of the list output fields (usually a subset of the internal output table fields).

A field catalog is required for every ALV list output to add desired functionality (i.e. Key, Hotspot, Specific headings, Justify, Col. position etc) to certain fields of the output. If not mentioned specifically, then the defaults are taken. The possible values and defaults are listed below.

The field catalog for the output table is built-up in the caller's coding. The build-up can be completely or partially automated by calling the REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE module.

The minimal field catalog is documented below. This can be done in a routine using a local variable. The user can use the other optional parameters to assign output attributes to different fields in the output, which differ from the default.

A field catalog need not be built-up and passed explicitly only under the following conditions:

1. The internal table to be output has the same structure as a Data Dictionary structure, which is referred to in the internal table declaration using LIKE or INCLUDE STRUCTURE. In this case the attributes of the different fields is taken directly from the table and the attributes (key fields, length, texts etc) need to state explicitly.

2. All fields in this structure are to be output

3. The structure name is passed to ALV in the parameter I_STRUCTURE_NAME of the function module REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY.

All the values entered in the catalog are specific to the particular field whose name is entered in the fieldname FIELDNAME of the fieldcat structure. The name of the table is also entered in the corr. Fieldname TABNAME of the structure.

The different possible attributes are:

· Row_pos (row position): Only relevant if the list output is to be multi-line (two or three lines) by default. So, this attribute can be used maintain certain level of alignment in the output.

Value set: 0, 1 – 3

· Col_pos (column position): This parameter is relevant when the fields in the output are to be different from the sequence of the fields in the internal table used for display. The parameter specifies the relative column position of the field in the list output. The user can change the column order interactively. If this parameter is initial for all field catalog entries, columns appear in the internal table field sequence.

Value set: 0, 1 – 60

· Fieldname (field name): This is the name of the internal table field for which the parameters are passed in the catalog.

Value set: internal output table field name (required parameter)

· Tabname (internal output table): Name of the internal output table that contains the field FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME above.

Value set: SPACE, internal output table name.

· Ref_fieldname (reference field name): Name of the Data Dictionary field referred to. This parameter is only used when the internal output table field described by the current field catalog entry has a reference to the Data Dictionary (not a program field), and the field name in the internal output table is different from the name of the field in the Data Dictionary. If the field names are identical, naming the Data Dictionary structure or table in the FIELDCAT-REF_TABNAME parameter is sufficient.

Value set: SPACE, Data Dictionary field name.

· Ref_tabname (reference table/structure field name): Structure or table name of the referred Data Dictionary field. This parameter is only used when the internal output table field described by the current field catalog entry has a Data Dictionary reference (not a program field).

Value set: SPACE, name of a Data Dictionary structure or table

Link to currency unit

· Cfieldname (currency unit field name): This is used for currency fields that have a reference to any unit field. This is only relevant for amount columns with associated unit. This parameter contains the Name of the internal output table field containing the currency unit associated with the amount field FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME. The field in FIELDCAT-CFIELDNAME must have its own field catalog entry.

Value set: SPACE, output table field name

· Ctabname (internal currency unit field output table): Name of the internal output table containing the FIELDCAT-CFIELDNAME field.

Value set: SPACE, output table field name.

Link to measurement unit

· Qfieldname (measurement unit field name): Only relevant for quantity columns with unit link. Name of the internal output table field containing the measurement unit associated with the quantity field FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME. The field in FIELDCAT-QFIELDNAME must have its own field catalog entry.

Value set: SPACE, output table field name.

· Qtabname (internal measurement unit field output table): Name of the internal output table containing the FIELDCAT-QFIELDNAME field.

Value set: SPACE, output table field name.

· Outputlen (column width): This parameter is used if the desired output length for a field is desired to be different from the internal output table field. For fields with a Data Dictionary link this parameter can be left initial. For fields without a Data Dictionary link (program field) the parameter must be given the value of the desired field list output length (column width).

Initial = column width is the output length of the referred Data Dictionary field (domain).

N = column width is n characters.

Value set: 0 (initial), n.

· Key (key column): By default, the system makes some fields in the output as key fields, provided the fields are key fields in their referencing table. Using this parameter, fields other than key fields of the referencing table can be made key field. This parameter is most important if the output needs to contain some field which are not scrollable or cannot be hidden.

If the internal output table contains fields that are key fields from different tables, then all those fields in the report output becomes unscrollable and cannot be hidden. So, the fields in the output internal table should not be referenced from tables in which they are key fields. Instead, they should be referenced to the tables in which they are not key fields, incase they are not desired as key field in the output.

'X' = key field (key field output in color) and Key fields can not be interactively hidden. Parameter FIELDCAT-NO_OUT must be left initial.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

· Key_sel (hideable key column): This parameter is only relevant for the fields which are made key fields using FIELDCAT-KEY = 'X'. Using this parameter the Key field can be hidden interactively.

The user cannot change the key column sequence interactively. The output is controlled by the FIELDCAT-NO_OUT parameter analogously to non-key fields.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

· No_out (field in field list): This parameter is used to remove certain fields from the output during initial display. The user can however interactively choose the field for output from the field list in the display variant.

'X' = field is not displayed in the current list.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

· Tech (technical field): This parameter is used to make certain field display only in the field catalog. The fields with this parameter set cannot be output in the list nor can they be displayed interactively from the catalog.

'X' = technical field.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

· Emphasize (highlight columns in color): As name suggests, this field parameter is used to highlight certain field with chosen colors.

Value set: SPACE, 'X' or 'Cxyz' (x:'1'-'9'; y,z: '0'=off ,'1'=on).

'X' = column is colored with the default column highlight color.

'Cxyz' = column is colored with a coded color:

- C: Color (coding must begin with C)

- X: color number

- Y: bold

- Z: inverse

· Hotspot (column as hotspot): This parameter is used to make certain field appear as hotspot i.e. a hand is displayed if the cursor is positioned on the field value. Single click on such fields cause the PICK OR F2 events to happen.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

'X' = column cells are output as hotspots.

· Fix_column (fix column): This parameter is used to fix certain columns in the output. All columns to be fixed must have this flag, starting from the left. If a column without this flag is output, only the columns to the left of this column are fixed. The user can change the column fixing interactively.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

'X' = column fixed (does not scroll horizontally).

· Do_sum (sum over column): the user can also call this function interactively.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

'X' = a sum is calculated over this internal output table field.

· No_sum (sums forbidden): No sum can be calculated over this field, although the data type of the field would allow summing.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

· Icon: The parameter displays certain column contents as icons. The internal output table column contents must be valid icon strings.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

'X' = column contents to be output as an icon.

· Symbol: The internal output table column must be a valid symbol character.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'

'X' = column contents are to be output as a symbol.

· Just (justification): This parameter is used for alignment of the contents of the output table. This is only relevant for CHAR or NUMC fields in the output internal table. The justification of the column header always follows the justification of the columns. Independent justification of the column header is not possible.

Value set: SPACE, 'R', 'L', and ‘C’.

' ' = Default justification for this data type

'R' = right-justified output

'L' = left-justified output

'C' = centered output.

· Lzero (leading zeros): By default ALV outputs NUMC fields right-justified without leading zeros. Using this parameter only the NUMC fields can be displayed with leading zeroes.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

'X' = output with leading zeros.

· No_sign (no +/- sign): This parameter is used to suppress the signs of the output fields. It is only relevant for the value fields.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

'X' = value output without +/ sign.

· No_zero (suppress zeros): Only relevant for value fields.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

'X' = suppress zeros.

· Edit_mask (field formatting): To apply the report output formatting options same as in the WRITE statement in report writing.

Value set: SPACE, template.

The following parameters are used for customizing the texts in the heading of the output of the columns. The texts are taken from the Data Dictionary for fields with a Data Dictionary reference. If this is not desired, the text parameters can also be specified. The Data Dictionary texts are then ignored.

If the user changes the column width interactively, the column header text with the appropriate length is always used.

The interactive function 'Optimize column width' takes account of both the field contents and the column headers: if all field contents are shorter than the shortest column header, the column width depends on the column header.

The 'long field label' is also used in display variant definition,

Sort, etc. Popup.

· Seltext_l (long field label)

· Seltext_m (medium field label)

· Seltext_s (short field label)

· Reptext_ddic (header) Analogous to the Data element main header

· Ddictxt (specify text): You can specify with values 'L', 'M', and 'S', the keyword that should always be used as column header. If the column width changes, no attempt is made in this case to find an appropriate header for the new output width.

Value set: SPACE, 'L', 'M', and ‘S’.

Sample code:

Suppose I_PO_DETAILS is an internal table containing two fields EBELN (PO number) and EBELP (PO item no).

DATA: L_FIELDCAT TYPE SLIS_FIELDCAT_ALV. “Local variable to hold the parameters

for a particular field of the field catalog

CLEAR L_FIELDCAT.

L_FIELDCAT-TABNAME = 'I_PO_DETAILS'.

L_FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME = 'EBELN'.

L_FIELDCAT-KEY = 'X'. “The PO no is made the key field,

“Colored and non scrollable

L_FIELDCAT-HOTSPOT = 'X'. “The po no becomes a hotspot

L_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_S = ‘P.O No’.

L_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_M = 'P order No'.

L_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_L = 'Purchase order No'.

APPEND L_FIELDCAT TO I_FIELDTAB.

CLEAR L_FIELDCAT

L_FIELDCAT-TABNAME = 'I_PO_DETAILS'.

L_FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME = 'EBELN'.

L_FIELDCAT-KEY = 'X'. “The po item no is made the key field,

“Colored and non scrollable

L_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_S = 'Item No'.

L_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_M = 'Item No`.

L_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_L = 'PO Item No'.

APPEND L_FIELDCAT TO I_FIELDTAB.

CLEAR L_FIELDCAT

Thus the catalog for the report output is prepared.

Step 4

The next step is to build an event table, which are used for firing both user commands and the system dependent events i.e. top of page, end of page etc.

A list of possible events is populated into an event table (I_EVENTS) when this table is passed to the function module REUSE_ALV_EVENT_NAMES_GET. The return table from this function module contains all the possible events.

The function module contains following import and export parameters.

IMPORTING PARAMETERS: I_LIST_TYPE

This parameter has possible values from 0-4.

The parameter I_LIST_TYPE is of TYPE SLIS_LIST_TYPE and is DEFAULT 0.

EXPORTING PARAMETERS: I_EVENTS table.

This table is of TYPE SLIS_T_EVENT and returns to the program the name of all the possible events.

The table structure contains the fields:

I_EVENTS-NAME: Name of the Callback event.

I_EVENTS-FORM: Name of the form routine that should be called in the calling program at the event.

Only events with a form routine name are processed.

The I_EVENTS table returns with the following possible constants:

1. Slis_ev_item_data_expand TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'ITEM_DATA_EXPAND'.

Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists using the layout parameter IS_LAYOUT-EXPAND_FIELDNAME of the structure IS_LAYOUT. Exit for passing item entries (ITEM table) for a header record that was expanded interactively by the user.

2. Slis_ev_reprep_sel_modify TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'REPREP_SEL_MODIFY'.

RS_SELFIELD-TABINDEX contains the header table index for which the item entries are to be put in the global item output table (T_OUTTAB_SLAVE). The Callback is only called if ALV has no items for a header that is to be expanded.

RFLG_ALL is passed with 'X' if the user shows all items. The application must ensure that entries are not repeated in the item table.

RS_SELFIELD is initial in this case.

3. Slis_ev_caller_exit_at_start TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'CALLER_EXIT'.

Is called at the beginning of the function module to make special settings. It is not usually used.

4. Slis_ev_user_command TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'USER_COMMAND'.

As this is a frequently-used Callback event, the form routine can also be passed directly in the interface by passing the user command in the IMPORTING parameter I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND.

5. Slis_ev_top_of_page TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'TOP_OF_PAGE'.

Equivalent to the list processing TOP-OF-PAGE event.

6. Slis_ev_top_of_coverpage TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'TOP_OF_COVERPAGE'.

The selection information and list status are output together (if they exist) on a separate page by default

7. Slis_ev_end_of_coverpage TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'END_OF_COVERPAGE'.

Analogously to TOP_OF_COVERPAGE the user can add other information

to the information output by ALV (selection information, list status) at this event.

8. Slis_ev_foreign_top_of_page TYPE slis_formname VALUE ‘FOREIGN_TOP_OF_PAGE'.

The Top-of-page event is always processed in ALV and is only passed to the caller via the Callback mechanism. This is still the case if the caller, e.g. by a user action, processes a branch list which was not formatted by ALV (e.g. a popup with additional information about the list record selected and displayed by ALV).

In this case, top-of-page cannot be formatted by ALV analogously to the basic list, it must be handled completely by the caller. The event top-of-page still occurs in ALV. When ALV notices a top-of-page which was not caused by an ALV output, the form routine in FOREIGN_TOP_OF_PAGE is called.

9. Slis_ev_foreign_end_of_page TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'FOREIGN_END_OF_PAGE'.

The event end-of-page is always processed in ALV and only passed to the caller via callback. This is still the case, e.g. when the caller processes a details list which was not formatted by ALV (e.g. a popup with further information about selected list records which were displayed by ALV).

In this case, end-of-page cannot be formatted by ALV analogously to the basic list, it must be handled completely by the caller. The event end-of-page still occurs in ALV. When ALV notices an end-of-page that was not caused by an ALV output, the form routine in FOREIGN_END_OF_PAGE is called.

10. Slis_ev_pf_status_set TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'PF_STATUS_SET'.

If a user list status is to be set, it must be done in the form routine assigned to this event. The ALV function codes, which must not be active, are in the Parameter RT_EXTAB. This table must be passed with the SET PF-STATUS command (with inactive user function codes as well, if necessary).

The STANDARD status of the function group SALV should be used as a template for a user-specific status. As this is a frequently used Callback event, its form routine can also be passed directly in the interface in the IMPORTING parameter I_CALLBACK_PF_STATUS_SET.

11. Slis_ev_list_modify TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'LIST_MODIFY'.

LIST_MODIFY USING R_TABNAME TYPE SLIS_TABNAME

R_INDEX LIKE SY-TABIX

R_INDEX_ITEM LIKE SY-TABIX

R_INDEX_SUM LIKE SY-TABIX.

12. Slis_ev_top_of_list TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'TOP_OF_LIST'.

Information output at the start of the list

13. Slis_ev_end_of_page TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'END_OF_PAGE'.

Information output at the end of a page. This is only called for printing.

14. Slis_ev_end_of_list TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'END_OF_LIST'.

Information output at the end of the list

15. Slis_ev_after_line_output TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'AFTER_LINE_OUTPUT'.

Output information after each output line. Should only be used in justified cases because it costs a lot of performance.

16. Slis_ev_before_line_output TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'BEFORE_LINE_OUTPUT'.

Output information before each output line. Should only be used in justified cases because it costs a lot of performance.

17. Slis_ev_subtotal_text TYPE slis_formname VALUE 'SUBTOTAL_TEXT'.

This event table (I_EVENTS) is now checked with the desired constants. If the desired constant is found, then the corresponding field for the FORM NAME is populated with the name of the routine containing the corresponding event.

Sample code :

FORMNAME_TOP_OF_PAGE TYPE SLIS_FORMNAME VALUE 'TOP_OF_PAGE',

FORMNAME_END_OF_PAGE TYPE SLIS_FORMNAME VALUE 'END_OF_PAGE', FORMNAME_USER_COMMAND TYPE SLIS_FORMNAME VALUE 'USER_COMMAND'.

DATA: L_I_EVENT TYPE SLIS_ALV_EVENT.

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET'

EXPORTING

I_LIST_TYPE = 0

IMPORTING

ET_EVENTS = I_EVENTS.

READ TABLE I_EVENTS WITH KEY NAME = SLIS_EV_TOP_OF_PAGE

INTO L_I_EVENT.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

MOVE FORMNAME_TOP_OF_PAGE TO L_I_EVENT-FORM.

APPEND L_I_EVENT TO I_EVENTS.

ENDIF.

READ TABLE I_EVENTS WITH KEY NAME = SLIS_EV_END_OF_PAGE

INTO L_I_EVENT.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

MOVE FORMNAME_END_OF_PAGE TO L_I_EVENT-FORM.

APPEND L_I_EVENT TO I_EVENTS.

ENDIF.

CLEAR L_I_EVENT.

READ TABLE I_EVENTS WITH KEY NAME = SLIS_EV_USER_COMMAND

INTO L_I_EVENT.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

MOVE FORMNAME_USER_COMMAND TO L_I_EVENT-FORM.

APPEND L_I_EVENT TO I_EVENTS.

ENDIF.

This will prepare the events table for the report.

The report will contain three forms for the above events:

1. FORM TOP_OF_PAGE : This form will contain the top of page event for the report i.e header etc

Using the function module ‘REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE’, the internal table containing the headings for top of page event can be passed to the list output. Also, any logo specific to the report can be passed to the function module.

2. FORM END_OF_PAGE : This form will contain the end of page event for the report i.e footer etc

3. FORM USER_COMMAND : This form will contain the desired user command i.e pick/line selection

Step 5

A layout is build for the report output list description USING the internal table declared above (I_LAYOUT).

Output list description structure.

The parameters are described under the following heads:

· Display options

· Exceptions

· Totals

· Interaction

31. F2code LIKE sy-ucomm: To assign an ALV standard function code to double-click (F2), assign the function code to this parameter. Ex.: to assign the ALV standard function 'Detail' ('&ETA') to F2.

=> LAYOUT-F2CODE = '&ETA'.

Value set: SPACE, function code

32. Confirmation_prompt: confirm. Prompt when leaving

Value set: SPACE, 'X'

'X' = if one of the functions ‘Back (F03)', ‘Exit (F15)' or ‘Cancel (F12)' occurs, a confirmation prompt appears.

33. Key_hotspot(1) TYPE c : The key fields are displayed as hotspot. The columns defined in the field catalog as key fields (FIELDCAT-KEY = 'X') are output as hotspots, i.e. clicking on a key column (highlighted in color in the list) calls the function under F2.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

34. Reprep(1) TYPE c : report report interface active.

35. Group_buttons(1) TYPE c : group-buttons for COL1 - COL5 . Group output fields via FIELDCAT-SP_GROUP in the field list, and pass the group name to the list module in the interface parameter IT_SPECIAL_GROUPS.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

36. No_keyfix(1) TYPE c : Used to make the key fields scrollable.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

' ' = The key columns defined in the field catalog by FIELDCAT-KEY = 'X' are fixed in the list output. These columns do not scroll horizontally. The item table key columns are fixed in hierarchical-sequential lists. The header table key fields are not considered here.

'X' = key columns not fixed

37. Get_selinfos(1) TYPE c : To read selection screen.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

If the calling program is a report with an ABAP/4 selection screen, setting this parameter makes ALV read the selection screen again. If the selections are read successfully, a pushbutton, via which the user can call a popup which lists the report selections in a simple form, becomes active on the results list output by ALV.

38. group_change_edit(1) TYPE c : Settings by user for new group

Value set: SPACE, 'X'

'X' = the user can enter a format option for each sort criterion in the sort/subtotal popup, for the list format when this value changes (e.g. new page or underline).

39. No_scrolling(1) TYPE c : Does not allow scrolling of the list to the right.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'.

40. Expand_all(1) TYPE c : Expand all positions

Detailed screen

40. Detail_popup(1) TYPE c : show detail in popup.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'

' ' = List record detail display in full-screen mode, with top-of-page.

'X' = list record detail display in popup (without top-of-page).

41. Detail_initial_lines(1) TYPE c : show also initial lines

Value set: SPACE, 'X'

' ' = Only fields whose contents are not initial are output in the detail view.

'X' = initial field contents are also output in detail.

41. detail_titlebar(30) type c : Titlebar for detail screen

Value set: SPACE, string (max.30)

` ' = ' Detail: Display' is output as the title of the detail window.

'String’ = the string passed is output as the title of the detail window.

Display variants

42. Header_text (20) TYPE c: Text for header button. Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists. You can toggle between display field and field list views via pushbuttons in the display variant definition popup for hierarchical-sequential lists. The views refer to the hierarchy level of the fields. This is technically a toggle between the header table and item table fields.

Value set: SPACE, CHAR (20)

' ' = The header table field pushbutton text is 'Header' by default.

CHAR (20) = header table field pushbutton text.

43.item_text(20) TYPE c : Text for item button. Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists. You can toggle the view between the display fields and the field list via pushbuttons in the display variant definition popup for hierarchical-sequential lists. The views refer to the hierarchy level of the fields. This is technically a toggle between the header table and item table fields.

Value set: SPACE, CHAR (20)

' ' = The pushbutton text for the item table fields is 'Item' by default.

CHAR (20) = item table field pushbutton text.

44.default_ item(1) TYPE c : Items as default. Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists.

Value set: SPACE, 'X'

' ' = The header table fields are displayed by default in the display variant definition popup. The user can switch to the item table fields interactively.

'X' = the item table fields are displayed by default in the display variant Definition Popup. The user can switch to the header table fields interactively.

Colour

45. Info_fieldname TYPE slis_fieldname: infofield for listoutput. A whole list record can be colored individually using a color code in a column of the internal output table for the record. Assign the name of the field containing the color code to this parameter.

Value set: SPACE, internal output table field name

The internal output table field must be of type CHAR(3).

The code must have the following syntax: 'Cxy':

C = color (all codes must start with 'C')

X = color number ('1'-'9')

Y = bold ('0' = off, '1' = on)

46. Coltab_fieldname TYPE slis_fieldname: Cells can be colored individually using a color code which is contained in a column of the internal output table for the record containing the cell. Assign the name of the field to this parameter.

Others

47. List_append(1) TYPE c : no call screen. It is only useful to output block-lists without specifying the above modules if the number of list blocks exceeds, or may exceed, the maximum number specified in the block module documentation. These operations are not possible for user-defined block lists.

Example code :

I_LAYOUT-f2code = ws_fcode.

I_LAYOUT-zebra = 'X'.

I_LAYOUT-colwidth_optimize = 'X'.

I_LAYOUT-no_keyfix = 'X'.

I_LAYOUT-get_selinfos = 'X'.

I_LAYOUT-no_hotspot = 'X'.

I_LAYOUT-no_input = 'X'.

I_LAYOUT-hotspot_fieldname = FIELDNAME.

I_LAYOUT-no_input = ‘X’.

I_LAYOUT-no_vline = `X’.

I_LAYOUT-no_colhead = ‘ ‘.

I_LAYOUT-lights_condense = ` `.

I_LAYOUT-totals_text = ` `.

I_LAYOUT-subtotals_text = ` `.

I_LAYOUT-totals_only = ` `.

I_LAYOUT-key_hotspot = ‘X’.

I_LAYOUT-detail_popup = ‘X’.

I_LAYOUT-group_change_edit = ‘X’.

I_LAYOUT-GROUP_BUTTONS = ‘X’.

Step 6

This step is required to get the selection screen information in the report output.

The prerequisite for this is to set the parameter LAYOUT-GET_SELINFOS of the IMPORTING structure.

The parameters to be passed in the IS_SEL_HIDE table are:

o mode: 'R' = only the entries passed in the internal table IS_SEL_HIDE-T_ENTRIES

Are output in the pop up. Selection info, which the list tool read in the selection screen (when called by a report with a selection screen), is replaced by the values passed.

'S' = the selection info which the list tool read in the selection screen of the calling report are modified by the entries in the table IS_SEL_HIDE-T_ENTRIES.

o t_entries: Selection info table

o t_entries-mode: 'A' = output the selection info for the current table record in the info popup.

'D' = do not output select option or SELNAME parameter selection info in the popup.

o t_entries-selname: (only used in t_entries-mode = 'D') : Name of the select option or parameter.

The following table fields are only used in t_entries-mode = 'A'. They contain the selection information to be added.

· t_entries-field: DDIC field name of the field for which selection information is to be output.

· t_entries-table: DDIC table names of t_entries-field.

· t_entries-stext: Field name in info popup.

· If t_entries-field and t_entries-table have been entered, this text is taken from DDIC.

· t_entries-valuf: Selection condition 'from' value (external format)

· t_entries-valut: Selection condition 'to' value (external format)

· t_entries-sign0: (I)nclusive (E)xclusive

· t_entries-option: All values of the select options Option field allowed.

Step 6

The Table IT_SORT is populated with the sort criteria for the different fields.

The caller specifies the sorting and/or subtotaling of the basic list in the internal table IT_SORT.

This internal table has the following fields:

o spos : Sort sequence

o fieldname : Internal output table field name

o tabname : Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists. Name of the internal output table.

o up : 'X' = sort in ascending order

o down : 'X' = sort in descending order

o subtot : 'X' = subtotal at group value change

o group : '* ' = new page at group value change ,'UL' = underline at group value change

Step 7

The final step in the output of the report is the use of two ALV functions modules.

1. REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE

2. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY

The first function module is used to pass the field catalog to the report output and merge it with the internal output table.

FUNCTION reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge.

15. ALV output to PDF conversion

It has an example code for PDF Conversion.

http://www.erpgenie.com/abap/code/abap51.htm

Go thru these programs they may help u to try on some hands on

ALV Demo program

BCALV_DEMO_HTML

BCALV_FULLSCREEN_DEMO ALV Demo: Fullscreen Mode

BCALV_FULLSCREEN_DEMO_CLASSIC ALV demo: Fullscreen mode

BCALV_GRID_DEMO Simple ALV Control Call Demo Program

BCALV_TREE_DEMO Demo for ALV tree control

BCALV_TREE_SIMPLE_DEMO

BC_ALV_DEMO_HTML_D0100

Using ALV, We can have three types of reports:

1. Simple Report

2. Block Report

3. Hierarchical Sequential Report

There are some function modules which will enable to produce the above reports without much effort.

All the definitions of internal tables, structures and constants are declared in a type-pool called SLIS.

1. SIMPLE REPORT.

The important function modules are:

A. Reuse_alv_list_display

B. Reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge

C. Reuse_alv_events_get

D. Reuse_alv_commentary_write

E. Reuse_alv_grid_display

A. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY

This is the function module which prints the data.

The important parameters are :

I. Export :

i. I_callback_program : report id

ii. I_callback_pf_status_set : routine where a user can set his own pf status or change the functionality of the existing pf status

iii. I_callback_user_command : routine where the function codes are handled

iv. I_structure name : name of the dictionary table

v. Is_layout : structure to set the layout of the report

vi. It_fieldcat : internal table with the list of all fields and their attributes which are to be printed (this table can be populated automatically by the function module REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE

vii. It_events : internal table with a list of all possible events of ALV and their corresponding form names.

II. Tables :

i. t_outtab : internal table with the data to be output

B. REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE:

This function module is used to populate a fieldcatalog which is essential to display the data in ALV. If the output data is from a single dictionary table and all the columns are selected, then we need not exclusively create the field catalog. Its enough to mention the table name as a parameter(I_structure name) in the REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY. But in other cases we need to create it.

The important Parameters are:

I. Export:

i. I_program_name : report id

ii. I_internal_tabname : the internal output table

iii. I_inclname : include or the report name where all the dynamic forms are handled.

II Changing

ct_fieldcat : an internal table with the type SLIS_T_FIELDCAT_ALV which is

declared in the type pool SLIS.

C. REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET:

Returns table of possible events for a list type

Parameters :

I. Import:

Et_Events: The event table is returned with all possible CALLBACK events

for the specified list type (column 'NAME'). For events to be processed by Callback, their 'FORM' field must be filled. If the field is initialized, the event is ignored. The entry can be read from the event table, the field 'FORM' filled and the entry modified using constants from the type pool SALV.

II. Export:

I_List_type:

0 = simple list REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY

1 = hierarchcal-sequential list REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY

2 = simple block list REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_APPEND

3 = hierarchical-sequential block list

REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_HS_APPEND

D. REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE:

This is used in the Top-of-page event to print the headings and other comments for the list.

Parameters :

I. it_list_commentary : internal table with the headings of the type slis_t_listheader.

This internal table has three fields :

Typ : ‘H’ – header, ‘S’ – selection , ‘A’ - action

Key : only when typ is ‘S’.

Info : the text to be printed

E. REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY:

A new function in 4.6 version, to display the results in grid rather than as a preview.

Parameters : same as reuse_alv_list_display

This is an example for simple list.

2. BLOCK REPORT

This is used to have multiple lists continuously.

The important functions used in this report are:

A. REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_INIT

B. REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_APPEND

C. REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_HS_APPEND

D. REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_DISPLAY

A. REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_INIT

This function module is used to set the default gui status etc.

Parameters:

I. I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM

II. I_CALLBACK_PF_STATUS_SET

III. I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND

B. REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_APPEND

This function module adds the data to the block.

Repeat this function for all the different blocks to be displayed one after the other.

Parameters :

Export :

I. is_layout : layout settings for block

II. it_fieldcat : field catalog

III. i_tabname : internal table name with output data

IV. it_events : internal table with all possible events

Tables :

i. t_outtab : internal table with output data.

C. REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_HS_APPEND

This function module is used for hierarchical sequential blocks.

D. REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_DISPLAY

This function module display the list with data appended by the above function.

Parameters : All the parameters are optional.

Here the functions REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE, REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET, REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE can be used.

3. Hierarchical Reports:

Hierarchical sequential list output.

The function module is

A. REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY

Parameters:

I. Export:

i. I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM

ii. I_CALLBACK_PF_STATUS_SET

iii. I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND

iv. IS_LAYOUT

v. IT_FIELDCAT

vi. IT_EVENTS

vii. i_tabname_header : Name of the internal table in the program containing the

output data of the highest hierarchy level.

viii. i_tabname_item : Name of the internal table in the program containing the

output data of the lowest hierarchy level.

ix. is_keyinfo : This structure contains the header and item table field

names which link the two tables (shared key).

II. Tables

i. t_outtab_header : Header table with data to be output

ii. t_outtab_item : Name of the internal table in the program containing the

output data of the lowest hierarchy level.

Hi...

Go to SE37 Transaction.

Give the function module name as REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY ..

Click on Display.

Then go to the IMPORT Tab.

In the import parameters you can find IT_FIELDCAT..

CLick on the Last column which is having a green indicator on it..

It gives u the entire information about fieldcatalog.
