Export TO XXL from ALV Grid - Column order mismatch

Hi All,
The user is trying to download data from Option -> Export -> Spreadsheet which will create XXL.
But while downloading there is mismatch in the order of columns displayed on the alv grid & columns downloaded.
All character fields are displayed on left, then date fields then quantity fields are downloaded to XXL. but in ALV Grid user has chosen a layout in which date fields come first.
Please help me to find solution

Grid display using 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'. From the alv grid output, user is trying to download data using export -> Excel . so for download there is no custom code.
We have copied standard report and added few more fields to the custom report. strangely Standard report also has this issue.
I searched for SAP notes also..no clue

Adding dynamic split column width to my report

I'm trying to add a dynamic split-column-width to my report in BI Publisher. I do not have a need for a column header. I tried to add this line to my existing line of code for the cell.
*<?split-column-width:COLUMN_DATA?>*
C *<?split-column-width:COLUMN_DATA?>* <?for-each-group@cell:current-group();COLUMN_ORDER?> COLUMN_DATAEC
I do not under stand the user's guide. What should be placed where to accomplish the dynamic column width and keep my current cell group?
thank you for your time.

In the Discoverer Plus (web version but not vieweer), go to Sheet -> Format. For each column click on Format Data and make sure Word Wrap in unchecked. Then click on Format Heading and check on Word Wrap. This will word wrap the column heading but stretch the column to maximum length of the data in the column.
I think be default word wrap in unchecked unless otherwise specified when the workbook was created.

Split-column-header

Dear BIP’ers
I have a fine working table using for-each-group@column:current-group(); in one .rtf table cell.
But now I want to change it into splitting one column as I believe it gives better control over layout.
UserManual suggest using “split-column-header”
I found a simple but working example here http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2007/05/01/
Can you please help me with the syntax:
Putting <?split-column-header: syntaxsyntax DLE_PNO?>
Into this:
<?for-each-group@column:current-group();./DLE_PNO?><?sort:current-group()/DLE_PNO;'ascending';data-type='number'?><?if@inlines:DLE_PNO>’0’?>P<?DLE_PNO?><?end if?><?end for-each-group?>

Hi Tim
OK. Great here comes the full problem:
Copy-paste from the current result in my pdf output converted to fit this forum:
{color:#0000ff}Work package number: WP 1.11 Start date: Month 17
Work package title: Experimental challenge of Atlantic salmon
Activity type: TRA WP Leader: P7
Participant number: P1 P2 P3 Total
Participant short name: UMA NSV UTR
Person months per participant: 7 3 134 144
Person months not funded: (5) (0) (11) (16)
{color}-----
The 3 participants showed above is dynamic changing from 1 to 20 in the repeating work packages.
The partners must always be showed in one line. The participant short name is written vertical to save space. An rtf template table holds the field codes previously posted in this forum.
It works fine up to approximately 8 partners, but when more partners the table exceeds the right page border.
So I would like to set one fixed cell space for the partners and then split cell for each partner like this:
<?for-each-group:DATATEMPLATE_OB_DLE_ROW;./OB_ID?><?sort:current-group()/OB_NO_S;'ascending';data-type='number'?>
<?for-each-group:current-group();./WP_ID?><?sort:current-group()/WP_NO_S;'ascending';data-type='number'?>
{color:#0000ff}Work package number: WP 1.11 Start date: Month 17

<?for-each-group@column:current-group();./DLE_PNO?><?sort:current-group()/DLE_PNO;'ascending';data-type='number'?><?if@inlines:DLE_PNO>’0’ ?>P<?DLE_PNO?><?end if?><?end for-each-group?>
split-column-header ?
{color:#0000ff}Participant number:..... P1..... P2..... P3 .....Total
Participant short name: .....UMA .....NSV .....UTR
Person months per participant: .....7 .....3 .....134..... 144
Person months not funded:..... (5) .....(0)..... (11)..... (16){color}
Here are some more details:
The table contains a number of groupings before the actial partner table
XML sample:
<DATATEMPLATE_OB_DLE_ROW>
<OB_ID>3</OB_ID>
<OB_NO_S>1</OB_NO_S>

Thanks

Sure.
Its like this.
I have columns in where i need to have 6 columns.but the same can have data in 2 or 3 columns.
Rest needs to be blank.
If i make 6 columns in the template and then attach the xml tage it splits only the first columns on the cell in 6 columns and rest 5 are kept blank which disturbs the whole layout.
If i don't make 6 columns in the template and have only 1 cell with the tag attached it does make the required amount of columns on each row but its not consistent ,so somewhere its 2 columns and somewhere 3 or 6.
Thanks

( ?split-column-width-unit:value? not supported

Hi,
I tried to use the following:
(<?split-column-width-unit:value?> in my template but when I ran the preview, I am getting an exception saying "org.xml.sax.SAXException: element xdofo:split-column-width-unit is not supported yet."
If it is not supported, then why is it in the XML Publisher manual?

Its supported ... you may have some other problem in your template causing the parser to complain. Log a TAR, get it routed to XMLP and we can help. Be sure to load template and sample data.

Feature Request: Add Slash & Backslash in Split-column-by-delimiter delimiters

I frequently use columns with file path or URL values, and often need to use / or \ as a delimiter in Split-column-by-delimiter operations. I wish these two chars were added to the built-in list of available delimiters.
It seems that they are the ones that I use most, yet each time I have to select --Custom-- + type it. :-(

Ok, thanks for the feedback. We'll take it into consideration for future releases.
If anyone else feels this would be helpful, please chime in.

Display 80 characters of PO text in ALV grid column?

Hi Guys,
I just want to display only 80 characters of PO Header text in the ALV grid column and the rest should appear when we move the Mouse on to the each ALV grid'd POtext column. So how is it possible 1st tell me how to display 80 characters of PO text.?
in ME23n u can see the PO header text.
Thanks ,
Gopi.

Hi Gopi,
Are you displaying ALV in your custom report and you want to show just 80 char in output?
If this is yes:
You can set ALV column width as 80 CHAR while building field catalog.
Column cell will have complete text but when ALV appears it will first show first 80 char.
thnx,
ags.

Split Columns Within a List

Hello,
I'm currently working on the questions page for a math textbook and have run into an impasse.
I'm trying to place a numbered list (which is a 3-split column) within another numbered list. However, I don't know how to do this. I'm attaching a screenshot.
Please note Questions 1-6. I am aiming to have the alphabetically numbered list sit on the same line as the numbered list. Both use paragraph styles which contain a list element, and not manual formatting with tabs, spaces, etc.
I appreciate any help.
Thank you.

There could be other techiniques as well but this how I did :-
Define 2 paragraph style :-
Paraghraph style 1 :- Under the "Bullet and numbering" section, have the Numerir Numbering at Level 1.
                               Define the formatting you want for the Question 7, 8 and 9.
                               Also, under "Indent and spacing" define "Space After" value. --- This will bring the gap in the Numeric and Alphabetical section also gap between the paragraph.
Paragraph style 2 :- Under the "Bullet and numbering" section to have the Numeric Numbering at Level 2 , change the format to have "a,b,c,d"
                               Define the formatting of text as you want to appear for the number in these options.
                               Under "Span Column" , Define "Split column" , Sub Column" value to be 3 and specify the gutter space and other settings as required.
When you want to use the Numeric numbering , say for Question 1 , 2 , 7 , 8 and 9 use the Paragraph style 1.
Then Switch to Paragraph Style 2 and type the numbers, (no need to type the alphabet for bulleting, they will be automatically added)
After you have typed the Third number set Ex:- C) 23,235 , press "Num Enter"(Enter key on Num Pad) for Column break , this will move the content to the next split column.

Split columns in ALV Grid Display.

Hi
Currently we are displaying the output as below :
currently :
Docid | Created | Posted |
      |          |      |
Needed :
Docid     |     Created     |     Posted     |
         |X1     |X2     |X3     |X4     |
     |     |     |     |     |
now some columns have to be splitted as above like Created is splitted into X1 and X2, Posted into X3 and X4 .I am using Set_table for_first_display method to display the current result, so is there any option in the method that can split the columns into two .
Edited by: Varun on Jan 27, 2011 7:30 PM
Edited by: Varun on Jan 29, 2011 2:25 PM

I am not sure of the maximum of columns possible.
If you see the col_pos field in the field catalog table it can have only 2 digits. so i would assume it would be only 99 columns, but not sure.
Would get you more information soon.
Thanks,
Balaji

Splitting Column Data in a Ticker View

Hi All,
How to split the column data into Rows rather in a Single Row in a Ticker View?
I have created a Request with 3 columns viz., Emp ID, EName and Salary. In Ticker View, diplaying the data in 3 rows. But, I would like to display the data as we see in a Table Format i.e.,
1 John 10000
2 Allen 15000
Instead of
1 2
John Allen
10000 15000
Thanks,
-Vency

Hi,
Thanks for giving Reply.
I knew that we can use HTML tags. I have done with Creating Table and used @{Column_Number} in Row Format.
<Table><tr><td>@2</td></tr><tr><td>@3</td></tr></Table>
Here, @2 is a Second Column Data is occupying only one row i.e., displaying John Allen. But I need to display Allen in the next line as I gave the example in the previous post. I am not getting the way How can I Split that @2 into multiple rows.
Is you are expecting me to do in other way? please suggest..
Thank You,

Editable ALV Grid column behavior under ITS standalone

Hello experts,
I have a straight forward implementation of an ALV Grid with 3 columns. Two columns are display only and the third is editable. My question only involves the editable column and its behavior in a web browser served by a standalone ITS server. The underlying data type is CURR. The enterable amounts are restricted to a format of 9.99. Even so, a web user can accidentally enter a non-numeric value such as 1.x0 . We have coded a data changed event handler to check the input value for expected amounts. The event handler logic readily identifies the non-numeric value and handles the exception. Although we have full control of the internal table value, there are two problems encountered within the web browser interface:
1) We cannot return the cursor to the problem cell to prevent the user from continuing before correcting the problem.
2) We cannot reset/change to displayed value to the original internal table value (it will only refresh after a save or refresh action). So the user has no visual cue that they've entered a bad value unless they pay close attention.
Running the transaction in SAPGUI, we can force the cursor back to the erroneously cell using "CALL METHOD alv_grid->set_scroll_info_via_id" . This technique does not appear to affect the cursor within the web browser.
After searching SDN forums and SAP documentation it appears that there is no way to programmatically control the ALV Grid active cell within the web browser interface. I'm wondering if the experts can confirm this issue? If that is the way it works within the browser interface could members please suggest "user friendly" approaches to notifying the user of a data entry problem? For example, is POPUP_TO_INFORM to only option? Perhaps there is a JavaScript routine that can enforce the edit format? Please keep in mind that the standard ALV Grid techniques that work in SAPGUI don't necessarily behave the same way in the web browser. I'm most interested in advice regarding the web browser using standalone ITS as it will be another year before we can leverage WebDynPro in this scenario.
Thanks and best regards,
Gary

Hi Gary,
can you please create a short report which recreates the issue and post the ABAP here. The goal is that webgui and SAPGUI behaves the same way. If they don't we will try to fix it.
Best regards,
Klaus

The Visible attribute on alv grid column is not changed after Change Layout

Setup:
I have a program that displays output in an ALV grid (using cl_salv_table).
The ALV grid is displayed within a custom control on a subscreen.
I have 4 subscreens being used on a tabstrip control. So I have 4 ALV grids total (one on each subscreen).
On each ALV grid, I have set the set_layout_change function to true so that the user can hide and unhide columns etc. on each grid via the button on the alv grid toolbar.
I also allow the user to dowload the contents of all 4 grids to excel. To do this I have a custom button that when clicked goes to each ALV grid - gets the column metadata (via cl_salv_columns_table-get() ) and checks the visibility to determine if the column should be downloaded or not (via cl_salv_column-is_visible() ) to excel.
The Problem:
As I said I have 4 grids being displayed via a tab control. Let's say the user is on tab 1 and unhides some columns on the alv grid 1 via the Change Layout... button. And then the user navigates to tab 2. If they click the download button at that point - when the download code is run and it checks the visibility of the columns on alv grid 1 - the changes that were made via the Change Layout... button have not synchronized yet. When I call is_visible() for a column that was unhid it still comes back as false.
The only way I have found to remedy this is to make the user click on a button on the alv grid's toolbar before navigating to a different tab to force the synchronization between the changes made and the backend column metadata. However, this is not the best option and requires training for the user that they have to do this for the download to work correctly.
The Question:
1) why is the Change Layout... button not automatically synchronizing the changes it made to the back end? Is there a way to make it do this?
2) OR, is there a way that I can force the synchronization within the code and not force the user to click a button on the alv grid? If there is a way to force the synchronization - where do I put that code? As far as I can tell, when I switch between tabs - I am unable to catch that action in my PAI events.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I was able to resolve this issue with a satisfactory solution.
In my program I had a local class definition to handle the grids' events. When the synchronization wasn't working I only had two events defined: for link_click and added_functions.
I created another definition for event after_salv_function:
on_after_salv_function for event after_salv_function of cl_salv_events importing e_salv_function
There is no code in the method implementation - but adding this event handler now causes a synchronization to occur after the Change Layout is done.
