Rasheed,

Actually it should work, do one small change declare a variable called s_save and initialize it with s_save = 'A' under Initialization event and then use s_save in your CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'.

Hi Rasheed,

Have U tried using I_save = 'X' .

Hi,

You have to use the parameter "IS_VARIANT" to enable save :

DATA: ls_variant TYPE  disvariant.

ls_variant-report = sy-repid.
ls_variant-username = sy-uname.

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
  EXPORTING
    i_callback_program = sy-repid
    i_save = 'A'
    it_fieldcat = lt_fieldcat
    is_variant = ls_variant
  TABLES
    t_outtab           = lt_tab
  EXCEPTIONS
    program_error      = 1
    OTHERS             = 2.

Hope that will work.

thank you Yann

It works like charm.

The point is : i_save = 'A' 

i_save  = 'X'  is not correct.

first declare two variables :

it_variant LIKE disvariant,

it_variant_return LIKE it_variant.

then declare parameter for variant on selection screen.

PARAMETER p_vari LIKE disvariant-variant.

and then use this function module which will provide u f4 help for parameter on selection screen.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_vari.

it_variant-report = sy-repid.

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4'

EXPORTING

is_variant = it_variant

i_save = 'A'

IMPORTING

es_variant = it_variant_return

EXCEPTIONS

not_found = 1

program_error = 2

OTHERS = 3.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE 'S' NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ELSE.

p_vari = it_variant_return-variant.

ENDIF.

and finally pass this variant to REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

as.....

is_variant = it_variant_return

after all this when u run ur report then in the tool bar u will see save layout option which will be the last one them save it with that name. next time when ever u run that report then it will give u name of variant in the parameter a sf4 help.

plz reward point if helpful.

with this u will sure use variant.

Populate the IS_Variant Parameter (field Report) with your report name,  leaving the variant field blank. The ALV grid needs this field partially filled before it will alow you to save a variant.  Then set your i_Save parameter to either 'A' or 'X'.
