Read saved sort alv layout

[Former Member]

Hi all

How to get the sorted column field from alv grid outside from program?

As you can see above, I have a program a and I set a layout variant.

Now I want to read in program b the layout variant from a and all the sorted column. 

How can I do that? 

Thanks

Have a look at the function modules that start with LT_VAR* - there might be one there to help.

try FM  LVC_VARIANT_SELECT.

      call function 'LVC_VARIANT_SELECT'
        exporting
          i_dialog           = ' '
          i_user_specific     = 'X'
          it_default_fieldcat = gt_fields
        importing
          et_fieldcat         = gt_fields
          et_sort             = gt_sort
        tables
          it_data             = it_items
        changing
          cs_variant         = ls_vari
        exceptions
          others             = 0.

I've tried with the function module as you mentioned above, but it does not work at all.

Youd didn't pass the variant name (but system provided the default one) and you didn't fill the default field catalog, also clear the display flag.

Hint: Look at sample BCALV_GRID_11 for usage of this FM (or read documentation)

USE this FM : REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4

here just pass program name in structure DISVARIANT

Hi Anujit ,

variant-report = program A. when you set variant to is_variant it should come.

call method g_alvgrid->set_table_for_first_display

    exporting

      is_layout                     = gs_layout

      it_toolbar_excluding          = gt_exclude

     is_variant                    = variant

      i_save                        = 'A'

    changing

      it_outtab                     = gt_obj[]

      it_fieldcatalog               = gt_fieldcat

    exceptions

      invalid_parameter_combination = 1

      program_error                 = 2

      too_many_lines                = 3

      others                        = 4.

Hi Anujit,

Pls try the below .

PARAMETERS: p_vari  TYPE slis_vari.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK block.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_vari.

   rs_variant-report   = sy-repid.

   rs_variant-username = sy-uname.

   CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4'

       is_variant = rs_variant

       i_save     = 'A'
