ALV: How do I suppress repeating values and page breaks on printed output?

Good day, everyone!
First, I've done a LOT of searching trying to find the answer to my question, but I'm not finding an answer. If this has already been answered and you can point me to a URL, I would appreciate it.
Here's my issue: I have a rather simple ALV report. It has the columns of Person ID, Personnel Number, For Period, In Period, and Amount. I sort by Person ID and Personnel Number, and if the value repeats on the next line of the report, I want to suppress it (make it blank).
I thought the answer was in the following code, where I set the GROUP attribute to asterisk:
CLEAR sortcat_ln.
sortcat_ln-spos      = '1'.
sortcat_ln-fieldname = 'PERSONID_EXT'.
sortcat_ln-up        = c_true.
sortcat_ln-group     = '*'.
APPEND sortcat_ln TO sortcat.
CLEAR sortcat_ln.
sortcat_ln-spos      = '2'.
sortcat_ln-fieldname = 'PERNR'.
sortcat_ln-up        = c_true.
sortcat_ln-group     = '*'.
APPEND sortcat_ln TO sortcat.
It looks PERFECT on the screen -- the values are suppressed if they repeat, and everything appears together on one screen. However, when I print the report, two things happen: 1) The values repeat on each row, even if they are the same, and 2) I get a page break after each Person ID / Personnel Number combination.
I now realize that I can't use the GROUP attribute. Is there some other way in ALV to blank these repeating values and keep all the rows together on one page, rather than page breaking after each value change?
Thanks!

Hi
Same requirement i had before, when i try to print preview. the output of the grid display is in grouping is ok, but when i print preview or print it doesnt cater the grouping and page breaks, so what i did i modify the internal table use in alv , after hitting the print preview/print with the format desired by the user. you can do that in user-command. see code below
FORM user_command USING r_ucomm TYPE syucomm
                        rs_selfield TYPE slis_selfield.
DATA lt_sort TYPE lvc_t_sort.
CASE r_ucomm.
    WHEN '&RNT_PREV' OR '&RNT'.
      t_final_x[] = t_final[].
      PERFORM clear_redundant.
      PERFORM set_sort_criteria USING lt_sort.
    WHEN '&F03' OR '&PRINT_BACK_PREVIEW'.
      t_final[] = t_final_x[].
    WHEN OTHERS.
ENDCASE.
ENDFORM.                    "user_command
hope it helps

No repeated values and in ascendant sort

Hi all,
I'm trying to put this:
SELECT DISTINCT month FROM Concert ORDER BY month ASC;
(no repeated values and in ascendant sort) into EJB-QL. This is what I've worked out:
SELECT DISTINCT OBJECT(o)
FROM Concert AS o
ORDER BY o.month ASC
(month is a field in the bean )
But this (and several tries later) doesn't work.
What's wrong with it??
The query is for a findAll method -without- input parameters which returns a collection, is here the error??? If so, how can I solve it?
I'm totally lost and frustrated, I'd really appreciate some light
Thanks a lot in advance

Your query is currect if table name and attribute name are currect.
Can you write what type of error is comming?

How to get the kerning value and set it to back use script?

hi,guys
I come back again.
I encountered a kerning problem.
how to get the kerning value and set it to back use script?
Thanks very much!

For both cases, the filename can be found on the FILE.ReceivedFileName Context Property. You can access this Property in a Pipeline Component or Orchestration and take any action you want, such as apply to a database.
The value is accessed by: MyReceivedMessage(FILE.ReceivedFileName)
In the case of a duplicate EDI Interchange, you would use the Failed Message Routing feature to capture the error message with either an Orchestration or Send Port.

Prevent Occurence of list header and page breaks in spool file of ALV Grid

Prevent Occurence of list header and page breaks in spool file of ALV Grid Display.

Please suggest a posible answer

Hello all,
if you have not yet solved this on your own, here is my solution: use a format type that has 60000 lines per page for your spool output device.
It all depends on the format type that was used for creating the spool output.
By default (in our system), we have 65 lines per page. And after each page the column headings of the ALV will appear.
What i did:
create a new format type via transaction SPAD->full administration->device types->format types (copy an existing one)
change"Number of Rows" to 60000 or something applicable
edit the device type of your output device (e.g. LOCL) to contain the newly created format type (via SPAD; Button "Formats" in device type maintenance).
That's it! Be sure to use this format type for your output device in the "Background Print Parameters" window (-> Button "Properties").
Regards
Daniel Klein
All other parameters you discussed before didn't do it. All ALV-Settings will be overwritten by the output device settings and its print properties.

OO ALV - How to highlight cell after value change

Hi All,
I have an OO ALV with an input enable column and would like to highlight a cell in a different color when the user changes it's value.
I am using pr_data_changed->get_cell_value to check the cells value has changed and pr_data_changed->modify_cell to update the cell with the new value.
The output table has a field called CELLCOLOR of type LVC_T_SCOL which I am using to highlight the cell in red:
         lw_cellcolor-fname = 'THISFIELD' .
         lw_cellcolor-color-col = '7'.
The ALV layout is also correclty set using:   layout-ctab_fname = 'CELLCOLOR'
All the above is working fine and the changed cell is highlighted HOWEVER it only works if I call METHOD g_grid->refresh_table_display
Is there anyway to highlight the cell without calling method refresh_table_display??????
I do not like to call method refresh_table_display in an ALV event. The main reason is if a user changes a cells value and at the same time selects the row for update then the method refresh_table_display wipes out the row selection marker.
So Is there anyway to highlight the cell without calling method refresh_table_display??????
All your help appreciated
Che

Try this way
In the PAI use
call method get_selected_rows
This will get you the row index of the selected rows from the screen for example I_ROW
In PBO
call method g_grid->set_selected_rows
exporting
it_row_no = i_rows[].
then call refresh_table_first_display
So this one will keep row selection after the refresh_table_first_display method

How to maintain space between value and base unit of measure in sapscript

Thanks,

There are a couple of ways to handle this, if you need a bigger space between, you can use tabs in the paragraph format. Or you can just write the space in between the fields like so.

Ff67 , How Interpretation algoritms 001 take VALUE and REFER

Dear experts
How to Interpretation algoritms 001 take VALUE AND REFERENCE (XBLNR).
BOTH VALUE AND REFERENCE .
When I use algorithm 001 without REFERENCE , It take value , but when I
put REFERENCE it take REFERENCE only and NO TAKE VALUE .
I need that this algorithm take both VALUE AND REFERENCE.
How Can do this ?
Our electronic account statement , have many equal values , but I can
take reference value for clear item open automatic . In this moment is
manual this process.
Is necesary implement user-exit or badi for this solution ? Or any ideas to implement algoritms 901 ??

How to Store bollean selection values and retrieve them in runtime?

I have an array of bolleans representing a channel of a device. Now , when the user turns on the channel the selected channel array are supposed to be stored. Now when the user selects device 2 (using a ring function) the list refreshes t5he channel names and resets the bollean array to their default values and the new selection values are to be stored. Now if the user wants, he should revert back to device 1 and can review what all channels he had selected for Device 1. How can this functionality be achieved?

You need to store the boolean array somewhere. I would likely just use a shift register

How to get po delivered value and po invoived value?

HI experts,
i need to create bex query with PO total value, PO NET VALUE Item wise, po delivered value,
po still remaining value and po invoiced value.
AFter extensive search i got 0net_po_val for PO net value item wise.
Remaining 4. Fields am unable to search in bw targets. So how to proceed?? Any inputs?
Thanx in advance.
br,
Ravi kiran

Hi Ravi,
Please find the logic for the same:
PO Delivered Value
EKBE (BEWTP = E and SHKZG) SHKZG = S is positive and
SHKZG = H is negative.
PO Still Remaining Value
PO Value- PO Delivered Value
PO Invoiced Value
EKBE(BEWTP = Q and SHKZG) SHKZG = S is positive and
SHKZG = H is negative.

When we run query how it gets the characteristic values and attributes.

Hi,
When we load transaction data it chacks characteristic values then SIDs then DIM IDs then insert DIM IDs into fact table but when we run the query how it checks and gets the characteristic values and attributes.

when we run the query how it checks and gets the characteristic values and attributes.
Just the opposite way you have described. It gets from the corresponding masterdata tables, with the connected SID.

How to create a display value and a return value for an item

Hi! I have an item on a form. I want the default value for my item to be :":APP_USER", but the return value, to be the id of my user. I tried to create a PL/SQL Expression for the default item, but it doesn't work. What do I miss?
It should be something like this, but it's not.
begin
select first_name || ',' ||last_name as "Employee",
id_employee -- display value,return value
from employees
where id_employee = :APP_USER;
end;
Does anyone know?
Thanks!
Vitaly

Hi VItaly,
Display value and return value concept applies very well in case of a Combo box if i am correct, I don't know what type of item is your's.
But any way, you can have a workaround like,
Create a hidden item such that it's default value should be ID of the user which can be get from db by using :APP_USER.
Use the this item for your references.
I think this will meet your requirement.
Thanks

Grouping and Page Break in ALV using Function Modules

Hi all,
I am trying to develop an ALV Report that will be grouped by vendor, some vendor information to be displayed on header. And, after each vendor;s records there should be a page break.
It should be something like this:
Vendor Number: 00012345454
Vendor Name: ABC Technologies, Inc
Vendor Country: USA
Item....Price...... Descriptopm
123....100,00......this is description
124....120.00......this is another description
PAGE BREAK
Vendor Number: 000123456545
Vendor Name: My Bank
Vendor Country: USA
Item....Price..... Descriptopm
223....32,00......this is my description
224....120.00......this is another description
Can anybody give some sample code for it ? I have tried a few codes from web, but they are not working.
Thanks.

Hi,
Try the following:
1. Build your sorting criteria. Pass this to ALV FM.
gs_sort-fieldname = 'VENDOR'.
gs_sort-group = '*'. "new page
gs_sort-up = 'X'.
APPEND gs_sort TO gt_sort.
2. Add event group level change. Pass this to ALV FM
gs_event-name = 'GROUPLEVEL_CHANGE'.
gs_event-form = 'GROUPLEVEL_CHANGE'.
APPEND gs_event TO gt_event.
Inside the form, retrieve your vendor details.
FORM grouplevel_change USING gs_lineinfo
                             gs_groups TYPE kkblo_grouplevels.
DATA: l_index     TYPE i.
IF gs_groups-level = 1.
    l_index = gs_groups-index_to + 1.
    READ TABLE gt_display INDEX l_index INTO gw_display.
ENDIF.
3. In the event top-of-page, display vendor details using write statements. For the first record, your structure (gw_display) will be blank, read from your data table first
FORM top_of_page.
IF gw_display IS INITIAL.
    READ TABLE gt_display INDEX 1 INTO l_display.
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
      WRITE: / l_display-vendor
    ENDIF.
ELSE.
    WRITE: / gw_display-vendor.
    CLEAR: gw_display.
ENDIF.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'
    EXPORTING
      i_callback_program       = sy-repid
      i_callback_pf_status_set = 'SET_STATUS'
      i_callback_user_command = 'USER_COMMAND'
      is_layout                = gs_layout
      it_fieldcat              = gt_fcat[]
      it_sort                  = gt_sort[]
      i_save                   = 'A'
      it_events                = gt_event
    TABLES
      t_outtab                 = gt_display[]
    EXCEPTIONS
      program_error            = 1
      OTHERS                   = 2.
Hope this helps.
