Technical name in Column set Selecion into Layouts

[marcoantonio_romerosanche]

Hello,

I could not find the way to get the coulmn set name with technical names.

example, in a layout select "Change layout".. appear the list of field to be selected, many times we need the technical name instead the description...is there a way to vewi the technical name?

Hello,

You can change the User Parameters in e.g. T-code SE16 -> Menu Settings -> Tab Data Browser -> Field Keyword -> tick option Field name. Then in the "Change layout" the coulmn set name will be changed to the field/technical names.

Regards,

David

Hello...

Just to let you know, SE16 is easy to do that, see the technical names... thank you.

but Im talikng about by examples in the layouts in ME2N, MVKZ..etc... in any transaction/report that uses ALV and can be added/removed fields.

Hello Marco,

There is no standard functionality to display technical field name in ALV as like in SE16 display.

In these case you have to enhance the transaction for which you need this functionality.

Find a place in the transaction source code where field catalog is build, then alter the field catalog internal table as below.

Loop at fieldcatalog.

move fieldname to header texts.

modify fieldcatalog.

endloop.

To enhance the transaction find a suitable BADI, if no BADI then find a suitable implicit enhancement spot.

Hello,

Try to use CTRL+Right click, or CTRL+SHIFT+F6 to show technical names

in "change layout" window:
