How to use REUSE_ALV_LIST_LAYOUT_INFO_GET to capture the current ALV grid layout?

[walkerist]

Hi all, I have an program that displays ALV grid which the user can edit its layout. My goal is to get the layout of the ALV grid which was saved in a variant.

its columns are like this:

Plant | Material | Material Description | Delivery Date | Quantity | Country | <---Default layout

Material | Material Description | Country | Delivery Date | Quantity <---Layout named ZLAY01 which is saved via variant.

To execute my program it has the following fields:

Plant

Material

Material Description

Delivery Date

Quantity

Country

and a field(named p_layout) for variant which reads the layout that will be displayed.

However, I was getting error with the FM in which it returns sy-subrc = 1 or no_infos. Can you please guide me where did I went wrong? thanks

You are a little bit poor with informations and coding. What do you have implemented an ALV-Grid or an ALV-List?

Maybe you implemented an ALV-Grid with FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY, so I think, the FM of your choice is REUSE_ALV_GRID_LAYOUT_INFO_GET

[Sandra_Rossi]

You say "this FMs" and indicating twice "REUSE_ALV_LIST_LAYOUT_INFO_GET", so maybe is it a typo, and you mean "these FMs" and you did not indicate the name of the second FM?

[raymond_giuseppi]

Look at a sample program such as BCALV_TEST_FULLSCREEN

Or provide more information, from where do you call the FM, etc.

[jens_michaelsen]

And how do you call the FM?

I created a programm using FM 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'.
I implemented a PF-STATUS of my own with an additional button. The user-command of the button is 'TEST'. If the user press the button, the FM 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_LAYOUT_INFO_GET' will be processed
and I don't get any error.
