ALV

Hi,

Can anyone explain me in detail about the parameter I_SAVE in the function module 'Reuse_alv_list_display'.

If the value passed to the parameter is ‘U’ then the layout should only be user specific.

What variant is reffered here ?Is it the normal Report variant or the ALV variant ?

Hi

Reading the documentation for the function module, it seems there is a way to save an ALV layout variant as "user-specific" and/or "global". But unfortunately, you either can only save "globals" (with the '/' as first character of the layout name) or "user-specific".

You have tried the I_SAVE parameter as 'U' and can only save "user-specific". You tried I_SAVE as 'X' and can only save "global". You tried I_SAVE as 'A', but only can only save as "user-specific". The odd thing is, on the Save Layout pop-up dialog the User-Specific checkbox is always "greyed-out", but has a check (for 'U' and 'A') or is checkless (for 'X').

Can "user" and "global" layout variants be saved together from same program with I_SAVE as 'A'?

Why is the User-Specific checkbox on the Save Layout pop-up always "greyed-out"?

You have the following EXPORTING parameters in my function module:

I_DEFAULT = 'X'

I_SAVE = 'A' "<=== this is to be global & user IS_VARIANT = VARIANT

VARIANT has the program's name in the REPORT field.

Plz rewards points,

Thanks & Regards,

Ganesh.
