<b>What is ALV Programming?</b>

<b>What is ALV programming in ABAP? When is this grid used in ABAP? </b>

<b>ALV is Application List viewer.</b>

Sap provides a set of ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER) function modules which can be put into use to embellish the output of a report. This set of ALV functions is used to enhance the readability and functionality of any report output. Cases arise in sap when the output of a report contains columns extending more than 255 characters in length.

In such cases, this set of ALV functions can help choose selected columns and arrange the different columns from a report output and also save different variants for report display. This is a very efficient tool for dynamically sorting and arranging the columns from a report output.

The report output can contain up to 90 columns in the display with the wide array of display options.

<b>The commonly used ALV functions used for this purpose are;</b>

"1. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_DEFAULT_GET 
"2. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4 
"3. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_EXISTENCE 
"4. REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET 
"5. REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE 
"6. REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE 
"7. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY 
"8. REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY 
"9. REUSE_ALV_POPUP_TO_SELECT

Purpose of the above Functions are differ not all the functions are required in all the ALV Report.

But either no.7 or No.8 is there in the Program.

<b>How you call this function in your report?</b>

After completion of all the data fetching from the database and append this data into an Internal Table. say I_ITAB.

Then use follwing function module.

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' 
       EXPORTING 
            I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM       = 'Prog.name' 
            I_STRUCTURE_NAME         = 'I_ITAB' 
            I_DEFAULT                = 'X' 
            I_SAVE                   = 'A' 
       TABLES 
            T_OUTTAB                 = I_ITAB. 
  IF SY-SUBRC <> 0. 
    WRITE: 'SY-SUBRC: ', SY-SUBRC . 
  ENDIF. 
ENDFORM.                    " GET_FINAL_DATA
