Check following in your code.

When you are calling function module REUSE ALV GRID DISPLAY

are you passing SAVE = 'X' in export parameters...

I am not sure of the parameter name...

Hope this may help

in your functions there is a method: set_layout_save. use this with X.

in your layout there is another method: set_save_restriction use this with 3.

oh sorry forget about it this was for CL_SALV_TABLE.

Hi,

You need to assign any one of the following values to I_SAVE export Parameter of the FM "REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY"

Value range

' ' = Display variants cannot be saved

Defined display variants (such as delivered display variants) can be selected for presentation regardless of this indicator. However, changes cannot be saved.

'X' = Standard save mode

Display variants can be saved as standard display variants.

Saving display variants as user-specific is not possible.

'U' = User-specific save mode

Display variants can only be saved as user-specific.

'A' = Standard and user-specific save mode

Display variants can be saved both as user-specific and as standard

variants. Users make their choice on the dialog box for saving the

display variant.

Thanks,
