Change default variant in ALV grid on runtime

Hello colleagues,
where is the place in a code (CL_ALV_VARIANT, CL_GUI_ALV_GRID, ...) where I can change the deault layout. Customer require a modification which change default layout in ALV under specific circumstances.
Kind regards
Radim Benek

It depend when these "specific circumstances" are occurring?
Before displaying the ALV, then force the value of the variant used in set_table_for_first_display,
CALL METHOD GRID1->SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY
EXPORTING
    I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'SFLIGHT'
    IS_VARIANT = GS_variant
    I_SAVE = X_SAVE
CHANGING
    IT_OUTTAB = GT_SFLIGHT.
If you want to simulate multiple "default variant" you should "mislead" the ALV by changing the report name used for storing variant (IS_VARIANT-REPORT) But in this case you will no longuer see every variant when in the ALV, only those of the "report name" passed when setting for first display.

Issues in Change layout Variant of ALV grid

Hi all,
I am using a ALV gird to display the data with some table column. I am able to save/ choose the Layout variant. I choose the existing layout varaint it works fine but when I change the column fields display from selected layout then it will immidiately looks fine, but if I perform some event, it goes to the initial stage of the choosed layout varaint.
I can solve this issue if I clear the Variant from the is_variant (of set_table_for_first_display method). So if I can find the fieldcatalog for layout Variant, then it will solved very easily.
Please suggest, if you have any idea on this.
Thanks,
Sanket Sethi

I got the solution. You can find the Variant field catalog by using Function module 'LVC_VARIANT_SELECT'. You can set the dialog box based on your requirements as well. So closing this thread. Thanks..

What is the button to change the variant in alv?

Hi guys,
can u tell me is there any button to change the variant in alv?. what is tanscation varient in report , hw it will used.

Hi
The ALV Grid Control is a tool with which you can output non-hierarchical lists in a
standardized format. The list data is displayed as a table on the screen.
The ALV Grid Control offers a range of interactive standard list functions that users need
frequently (find, sort, filter, calculate totals and subtotals, print, print preview, send list,
export list (in different formats), and so on. These functions are implemented in the
proxy object class. You as the programmer have the possibility to turn off functions not
needed. In most cases the implementations of the standard functions provided by the
control are sufficient. However, if required, you can adjust these implementations to
meet application-specific needs.
You can add self-defined functions to the toolbar, if necessary.
The ALV Grid Control allows users to adjust the layout of lists to meet their individual
requirements (for example, they can swap columns, hide columns, set filters for the
data to be displayed, calculate totals, and so on). The settings (list customizing) made
by a specific user are called a display variant. Display variants can be saved on a userspecific
or on a global basis. If such display variants exist for a list, they can be offered
to the user for selection. If a display variant is set as the default variant, the associated
list is always displayed based on the settings of this variant.
2. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY
REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY
REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE
REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE
3. Use of Field Catalog is to determines the technical properties & add formating information of the column.
6. all the definition of internal table, structure, constants are declared in a type-pool called SLIS.
7.fieldcat-fieldname
fieldcat-ref_fieldname
fieldcat-tabname
fieldcat-seltext_m
5. Form user_command using r_ucomm like sy-ucomm rs_selfield type slis_selfield.
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.
The commonly used ALV functions used for this purpose are;
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.
How you call this function in your report?
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
The object F_IT_ALV has a field, the activity ACTVT, which can
contain four permitted values: 01, 02, 03 and 70. Each of the
activities 01, 02 and 70 controls the availability of particular
functions (in the menu and the toolbar) of the ALV line item list:
a) 01: "Settings -> Display variant -> Save..."
b) 02: "Settings -> Display variant -> Current..." and
"Settings -> Display variant -> Current header rows "
c) 70: "Settings -> Display variant -> Administration..."
Activity 03 corresponds to the minimum authorization, which is the
most restricted one: The user can only select layouts which have
been configured already. In particular, all of the other functions
named above are inactive with activity 03.
Now if you want to permit a user to change the column selection and
the headers as well as to save the layout thus created, for example,
but if you do not want to permit the user to administrate the
layouts, you grant him or her the authorization for activities 01
and 02.

How to set variant for ALV grid from ABAP

Hello,
I have a program which displays some data with ALV grid. Then after some operation I would like to set different layout for the grid, but not by choosing it manually but by the program. I thought that it would be enough to use the method SET_VARIANT, so I'm setting DISVARIANT structure properly, using SET_VARIANT method and after that I'm calling REFRESH_TABLE_DISPLAY but layout is not changed. What else should I do? Is that possible?
Best regards,
Marcin

Variant of ALV-Grid

Hi folks,
Im using the variant function of the ALV Grid. The screen you get by creating or saving a variant contains the following tabstrips: Sort Order, Filter, View and Display. My aim is to hide all tabstrips except the Sort Order one. Is there any way to do this?

About Variants in ALV grid

Hi all,
I am displaying 4grids on a TAB Strip in ALV
i have created one variant for each grid(report)
But when i run the prog and press on F4 help for variant parameter, i am getting variants of all the grids
Is there any way to get only those variants related to a particular grid.
thanks in advance

Hi,
Specify different variant handles for each of the four grids. Some thing like the following,
ls_variant-report = <your program name>.
****Set following handler different for each grid ****reference
****something like 'GRD1', 'GRD2' and so on..
ls_variant-handle = <your grid handle 4 characters>.

Change layout Button In ALV Grid

Hi all,
I have a requirement where I am creating Field Catalogue from Z Table(has 60 fields) for few(12) fields.
The user would like to have the option to add more fields by changing the Layout. But I dont see the Fields in Hidden Column when I click the Change Layout Button in ALV Toolbar. It just displays the Field based on Field Catalogue defined.
Is there a way I can maintain all the fields without being displayed in ALV initally and letting the user select the hidden fields as per their requirement. As happens in SE16 where we can select the fields to be displayed.
Thanks for the support.

Hi Abhilasha,
In the reuse_alv function module we can see a field I_SAVE.If you pass this as 'X' then the option of saving the layout variants are available.
Create a layout by,selecting just the fileds required for display and set it as the default variant.It can be made Global or user-specific.But we need to declare all fields in the fieldcatalog.
So if the default variant is set,everytime the program is run it shows only the fields selected in it but can select more form the change layout option.
Hope it helps.

Byju

Validations and default Values in ALV Grid

All,
I am using "set_table_for_first_display" to display a grid with empty editable rows wherein which users can enter data and process certain transactions.
My requirement is to know if we can provide drop-downs and default values in this grid. for ex. if user want to insert a row, that row should automatically have some default values like company code, sales org etc.
Also, if there is an error while validating the data, I should be able to set the focus on that field while displaying the error message. I was able to display error message but could not set the focus on the field that need to be corrected.
Your earlier response is much appreciated.

Change layout button in ALV Grids

Hi Experts,
I have displayed 2 ALV grids in a single screen using OOPS concepts and I have activated the Save Layout option for both the Lists.
Now whenever I will save the layout for the 1st list then automatically it is taken into consideration for the common fields in the second list as well.
Please help me on how I can avoid changing the 2nd list if I will change the 1st list if possible.
Thanks in advance..

Display variant in ALV grid

Hi ,
i have developed an interactive report in which form the first grid display i will move to the second grid display.
Problem:
             For the first list there is an display variant. when i navigate to the second list it is using the same display variant form the first list ( this should not hapen ). so many of the fields are not be displayed in the second list.
            Is there any way to differentiate the display variant from first and second list.
Please help me. sample code will be more helpful.

hi santhosh
    You can very well create 2 variants in your report for grid display...just restrict some fields n create 2 variants and while executing jus choose which variant you need to run..

Changing field catalog of ALV grid after first display (was: "ALV GRID")

Dear experts!
I am using CL_GUI_ALV_GRID to display an ALV, whose fieldcatalog has 5 fields (FIELD1, FIELD2, FIELD3, FIELD4 and FIELD5).
I am setting "NO_OUT = 'X' " to the fields FIELD3 and FIELD5 in the fieldcatalog before call the method SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY.
If a specific event occurs on the screen, I would like to set "NO_OUT = 'X'" to the fields FIELD2 and FIELD4 and I would like to set the "NO_OUT = ''" to the fields and FIELD3 FIELD5. This should happen at runtime after the method call "SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY".
I've tried using the method SET_FIELDCATALOG, but it is private.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?
Thank you very much!

How to set default layout for ALV grid ?

Dear all,
When execute ALV reports, the user customize the layout for their own purpose. But each time they run that report, they must choose again their layout. Is there any way to set the layout as default ?
Thank you very much,
Sylvecat.

Hi,'
After you have created a layout just follow the steps listed below for making it as default layout:
1. Click (Save Layout).
2. Enter a name in the Save Layout field. The name must begin with a letter.
3. Type in a description for the layout in the Name field.
4. Select the Default Setting check box if you want this layout to be the default layout every time you run
the report.
5. Click (Continue).
Note: A warning message will appear if you are trying to save over an existing layout. Close the box by
selecting the X in the upper right hand corner or choose Yes to overwrite the layout.
Reward Points if found helpfull..
Cheers,
