help needed regarding ALV report

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a query regarding ALV report.

The requirement is as follows:-

When the user executes the ALV report and if he sums one numeric field column values and filters out some of the field columns ( for example there r 5 columns in the report and the user has filtered out 2 of them and viewing only 3 columns)

and now the requirements is that when the user runs the report later he should see the modified report ( i mean only 3 cloumns and the total value of the column which he has made) but not the original output which was there when the report was developed.

First of all i wanna know is it possible to do r not. If yes then how

Hope u have got what i want.

eagerly waiting for ur reply.

Hi Maqsood,

After the first run, do the totalling, filter the columns and save the list layout.. set the saved list varinat as the default..

Whatever the user has done on the ALV list can be saved in a ALV variant. You can provide the variant as a parameter on the selection screen and pass the variant value to the ALV call.

Read the documentation for ALV variants.

Hi,

let your users save their own variants within the ALV Grid.

Hi

Yes you can! You have to manage the layout variant.

So when you call your ALV you have to set the parameter I_SAVE = 'A'.

In this way you'll allow the user to save the variants for layout.

After you has to have a chance to choose the variant in selection-screen.

See the demo program BCALV_GRID_11 to manage the variant in selection-screen.

Hi Maqsood,

Yes You can do that.

Do the changes in the output of the ALV report & then go to

Settings>Layout>Save.

Here you specify the Save layout & a Name to it.Here you have option of making that output style as Default by selecting the Default setting check-box,so that next time it is run,you can see the saved layout.

Here you can specify any no. of types & save them.Wheever you want to see the layouts you can select by going to the same path & selecting one you require.
