Changing header text of column in ALV

Hello. I'm trying to change header of a column in WD ALV using this code:
lr_col = lo_value->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_column( 'DESCRIPTION' ).
lr_header = lr_col->get_header( ).
lr_header->set_text( EXPORTING value = 'My perfect text' ).
But it doesn't work. Where was I wrong?

Hi..
Add the following code after set_text
lr_header->set_prop_ddic_binding_field( ).
this will clear the binding of dataelement text with the column..

Changing header title of column at runtime

Hi
I want to change the column header in an ALV table at runtime. I know how to overwrite a DDIC binding text of the column header with my own static text but I also want to know how to modify this column header text dynamically. I have a separate attribute in my context node to serve as the column header, which I can keep modifying at runtime, but the problem is to bind this attribute to the header of the column.
Thanks and regards
Sukanya

Header Text for Field Catalog ALV Grid doubt ..

Hi everybody
I have an ALV Grid List Report (REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY)
but i have a trouble: the header texts for the fields are always truncated to 10 positions.
The code for fill the Field Catalog are:
CLEAR l_field_cat.
l_field_cat-COL_POS       = 2.
l_field_cat-FIELDNAME     = 'AVERAGE'.
l_field_cat-TABNAME       = 'T_REPORT'.
l_field_cat-REF_TABNAME   = 'RPSCO'.
l_field_cat-REF_FIELDNAME = 'WLP00'.
l_field_cat-SELTEXT_S   = TEXT-004. <- 'AverageAmount' 20 lenght
l_field_cat-DDICTXT       = 'S'.
l_field_cat-KEY           = ' '.
l_field_cat-KEY_SEL       = ' '.
APPEND l_field_cat TO p_field_cat.
But, although the column appears with 20 characters lenght, the header text appears 'AverageAmo', and it is in the same way for all the fields, even with fields with 40 characters lenght.
What am i doing incorrect ?
Thanks in Advanced
Frank

That is because of field I_field_cat-SELTEXT_S.
This will always display 10 char long text.
To avoid truncating you can specify length for the header.
Try this
        x_fieldcat-seltext_l = TEXT-004.
        x_fieldcat-outputlen = 20.
        x_fieldcat-ddictxt   = c_l.

How to change the text of the standard ALV button?

Hallo everybody,
WebDynpro ALV has its own buttons e.g. Export,   Is it possible to change the text "Export" as own text 'SaveInExcel' ?
Many thanks,
Meer

Answer to this question:
Wenn der Typ des Oberflächenelements in der Toolbar oder seine Beschriftung vom Standard abweichen sollen, lassen Sie zwar die ALV-Standardfunktion zu, blenden jedoch das zugehörige Oberflächenelement aus. Stattdessen erzeugen Sie eine selbstdefinierte Funktion und weisen ihr die gewünschte ALV-Standardfunktion zu.
Folgende Oberflächenelemente für ALV-Standardfunktionen können Sie auf diese Weise ersetzen:
●      Dropdown-Listbox Senden sowie die einzelnen Einträge der Dropdown-Listbox
●      Dropdown-Listbox Anzeigen als sowie die einzelnen Einträge der Dropdown-Listbox
●      Drucktasten Zeile einfügen, Zeile anhängen und Zeile löschen
●      Drucktaste Prüfen
●      Drucktaste Rückgängig
●      Drucktasten Excel und Druckversion
●      Drucktaste Filter sowie die Einzelfunktionen Filter definieren und Filter löschen
●      Drucktaste Einstellungen sowie die Einzelfunktionen Dialogfenster Einstellungen öffnen und Dialogfenster Einstellungen schließen
●      Dropdown-Listbox Sichten
Um einer selbstdefinierten Funktion eine ALV-Standardfunktion zuzuweisen, verwenden Sie Methoden der Klasse CL_SALV_WD_FUNCTION.

How to change header text in MB02

Dear All,
We update qty of the stores acknowledgement in the MB02. However if the qty that was punched earlier has been found to be incorrect as is the scenario below:
GR: 166
Stores ack: 147
GR reversed: 166
Now we are not able to cancel the mat doc because of the diff in the stores ack.
When we go to change the stores ack in the MB02 header text the error thrown is: Qty is already updated for Mat doc.
Regards
Arpita

Hi Arpita ,
Is it a Standard error ?. If yes provide the class and the error no.
In normal cases system does not take text into consideration while reversing a mat.doc unless a user exit is implemented.

Changing Header Text

Hi,
Somebody has an example using IDOC's, about how change o modify the header text in PurchaseOrder?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Marisol.

Thanks,
I found that in .xsd, It doesn't show the Dimension name , however it clears out the headers. Whatever I put in header cells from back end by modifying the xls,
    <xsd:complexType name="RowAxisLayout">
        <xsd:complexContent>
            <xsd:extension base="AxisLayout">
                <xsd:attribute name="columnOffset" type="xsd:int" use="required" />
                <xsd:attribute name="showDimensionName" type="xsd:boolean" use="optional" default="true" />

Single heading for Multiple columns in ALV

Hi Experts,
      I need to display a common column heading for multiple columns in my ALV Grid Display output. I am giving the sample output here.
MATNR...WERKS..| Unrestricted Stock|....|Stock in transfer        |....|Stock in Quality|.
............................| CAT | SAP | Differe| .. | CAT   | SAP | Diff   | .. | CAT   | SAP | Diff |
As I shown above, for 3 columns CAT, SAP, and for Difference, I need to get "Unrestricted Stock" as column heading... and so on...
Pl. suggest me on this.
Thanks in Advance
Ramakrishna

Hello Ramki,
NOT POSSIBLE IN ALV AT ALL :-((
You have to use classical report using WRITE stmts for this.
If your client does not want to lose ALV functionalities, then you can try something like.
Unrestricted Stock-SAP | Unrestricted Stock-CRM | Unrestricted Stock-Diff. Stock ... and so on !!!

As mentioned above storage loc and date will be changing with respect to data dynamically and under this double heading qty will be displayed.
Just want to know how to get double heading. It is clear that how to display dynamically but unaware of double heading using fieldcatalog.

Hi Yahya,
Please pass row position in fieldcatalogue for the respective columns.
E.g MOVE '2' to w_fieldcat-row_pos. " This will display the field in 2nd row.

i want to change days dynamically in alv header .Pls give me the code using procedural alv report.
If u want i will give u detail.pls help me in this.

I assume the main issue is chaniging ALV header dynamically, isn't it? For this you need to use field seltext_m of fieldcatalog for particular column. So you can contruct header dynamically by string concatenation like
parameters: pa_1st(2) type n, "i.e. 15
                    pa_2nd(2) type n, "i.e 25
                    pa_3rd(2) type n. "i.e. 35
"first field
concatenate '0' 'to' pa_1st into it_fieldcatalog-seltext_m.
"next field
add 1 to pa_1st.
concatenate pa_1st 'to' pa_2nd into it_fieldcatalog-seltext_m.
"last field
add 1 to pa_2nd.
concatenate pa_2nd 'to' pa_3rd into it_fieldcatalog-seltext_m.

How to change heading text for parameter field of type date

Hi,
    After creating a parameter field with the type " Date Time" when I open the report for entering the parameter then it displays the given parameter with the following text:
" Please enter Date in format "yyyy-mm-dd". "
I want to change it to some other text like as:
" You have to enter the date and time in format yyyy-mm-dd . "
Is there any way by which I can change this given header to some other text.
Let me know if anyone needs some more information in this regard so as to solve my given query soon.

Hi Garrett,
              Well first of all I can change only the prompt text that is user defined. I cannot change any parameter as of now whose type is let suppose Date. Since in this case the Business Object itself shows the text which is something like this " Please enter Date in format "yyyy-mm-dd". " .
   Here I want to change this given text to some other format like " You have to enter the date in the format yyyy-mm-dd" or in any other manner.
Also the current Crystal Report version which I am using is 11.0.0.1282.
