cl_salv_table --needs editable functionality -SAP please provide this

Former Member

Hi everybody

The new cl_salv_table class is fine for a lot of things but it definitely needs EDIT type of functionality -- doesn't need a huge amount but the user should be able to edit individual cell(s) and insert / delete lines as with the current cl_gui_alv_grid.

To show SAP that this function is needed just postunder this a single line Agree.

If enough replies come back I'm sure SAP will consider this in future.

I'd love to do a Poll but this Forum doesn't seem to have that facility available.

Cheers

jimbo

how many agrees still have to come before SAP will implement this obvious necessary request ?

We are still using reuse_alv for all reports since there still is no substitute to replace it with.

if they want me to use OO then also provide the proper objects for this.

kind regards

I use cl_salv_table when ever I am creating a view-only report in SAP Gui. I would really like it if I could make editable ALV Grid like CL_GUI_ALV_GRID. Come on SAP, you allow for editable ALV in WD Abap which is very similar to cl_salv_table. I agree completely that this functionality needs to be added.

What I would really like to know is why SAP did not include this feature and what is their reasons for not including this feature. If someone from SAP could respond in order to inform the community why this feature is not included and if it ever will be included, we would appreciate it. Even if SAP has no plans to include editable ALV Grid functionality in cl_salv_table, I think that the community would appreciate knowing that. Not knowing why it was not included or if it ever will be is worse than knowing that the feature will not be included.

Hi Gregg,

I fully agee. I had the same problem some days ago and I implemented a workaround solution with a pop-up box and field-symbols. If you need such a workaround solution, I can post it here. But nevertheless an ootb solution would be nice and is long overdue.

Yes SAP please add this function to the SALV model. It would make development much easier. especially if the edit function needs to be added to an existing report (based on SALV).

well the functionality would be useful

but let me tell you that it is not this functionality which is the more important

the missing one is building the field catalog automatically (automagically) based on internal table definition

I made this several years ago and encapsulated the functionality into a OO class which does the display also

and guess what, the display is done through function REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY_LVC

this is the most convenient way to do it and is far more optimized that this crazy SLIS type pool

if you need to access to ALV grid object you still are able to do so with function GET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR

I am a OO ABAP enthousiast but when some "good old" solution works...

Hi All,

In my requirement I need to display first output in ALV grid and second detail output in plain list containg 3 section one common header info and two detail tables with the enabled system -> list -> saving option.

So in such scenario i can not use CL_GUI_ALV_GRID class .when i go for CL_SALV_TABLE I am facing some difficulty to make it editable.

SAP may not have thought of implementing editable functionality in CL_SALV_TABLE class cause the main purpose is to use this class in background processing.

But in the above requirement I have to go for CL_SALV_TABLE.

I am very new in ABAP world.So my understanding may not be fully correct.Please suggest me the solution for such scenarios and take a vote from my side.

Thanks,

Agree.

Another thing is better handling of checkboxes and consistency of the same with all ALV types.
