Include Field Labels in GUI_Download

How do I include field labels in GUI_DOWNLOAD (I am using it to download an Excel file from an internal table)? I see a table called fieldnames but when I add fields to that table they system only shows the first field. How can I show a label for each row, in Excel?
See the code below:
wa_fade_fields-posid = 'Project#'.
wa_fade_fields-poski = 'Phase Code'.
wa_fade_fields-usr02 = 'WBS Element'.
wa_fade_fields-txt04 = 'Status'.
wa_fade_fields-sakto = 'Cost Elem'.
wa_fade_fields-vrsen = 'Vsn'.
wa_fade_fields-wrttp = 'VT'.
wa_fade_fields-planned_hours = 'Planned Hours'.
wa_fade_fields-arbei = 'Current Hours'.
wa_fade_fields-ismnw = 'JTD Hours'.
wa_fade_fields-etc = 'Estimate to Complete'.
wa_fade_fields-variance = 'Variance'.
wa_fade_fields-percent = 'Percent'.
INSERT wa_fade_fields INTO TABLE it_fade_fields.

I think the problem might be with the WORK AREA structure, the work area which contains the description should be atleast 50 characters long so that it can accomodate all the characters...
Declare it something like this
DATA: BEGIN OF excel_schedule OCCURS 0,
 refno(50),
 ebelp(50),
 etenr(50),
 eindt(50),
 menge(50),
 ameng(50),
 END OF excel_schedule.
Ok there is another simple way of doing this
Use GUI_DOWNLOAD twice and the second time you just append it to the existing first file...
SAmple code
DATA: BEGIN OF excel_schedule OCCURS 0,
 refno(50),
 ebelp(50),
 etenr(50),
 eindt(50),
 menge(50),
 ameng(50),
 END OF excel_schedule.

What is Field Label ? and where do we use it .

What is Field Label ? and where do we use it .

Hi,
You can assign text information to a data element with the field labels.
The field labels are used to display a screen field. You can copy structure components and table fields from the ABAP Dictionary to the input template when you define a screen in the Screen Painter (Get from Dict. function). You can also assign a field a field label that is derived from the data element of the field.
The text of the field label can be translated centrally with the translation tools. The text is then displayed in the input template in the users logon language.
Short, Medium and Long Field Labels
Keywords of different lengths for identifying screen fields. Since the space available for such texts depends on the input template, you can define the text information in three different lengths.
A maximum length must be assigned for each field label. It is the upper limit for the lengths of all translations of the given text. The maximum length of the field label therefore should be somewhat longer than the given text in the original language.
Headers
This text is used as a column header when you output the contents of fields as a list in the Data Browser. It can also be assigned to a field in the Screen Painter.
A maximum length must also be assigned for the header. It is the upper limit for the lengths of all translations of the header. Choose the maximum length of the header to be somewhat longer than the given text in the original language. Also note that the header is often displayed above the corresponding column when preparing list output. The length of the header therefore should not exceed the length of the data element.
Short Field Label
Definition
One of the following:
- Short field label
- Medium field label
- Long field label
Can be assigned as prefixed text to a screen field referring to the ABAP Dictonary. The text is displayed on the screen in the logon language of the user (if the text was translated into this language).
A heading can be defined to output the field values in lists. This heading is automatically included in the list header row, in the logon language.
Medium Field Label

One of the following:
- Short field label
- Medium field label

Field Label in ALV Header

Hello
Is there a way to use the field label in the header of a ALV grid?
I am currently using a hard coded solution, and i know it's not good.
form buildfieldcat .
clear wa_fcat.
refresh it_fcat.
wa_fcat-col_pos = '1'.
wa_fcat-tabname = 'KNA1'.
wa_fcat-fieldname = 'KUNNR'. " I want to use the field label of this field in the header...
wa_fcat-seltext_l = 'Customer Number'. " ...To not use this line.
wa_fcat-outputlen = 15.
wa_fcat-key = 'X'.
wa_fcat-no_zero = 'X'.
I hope my query was clear. Thanks a lot!

Hi,
If you want header columns from Dictionary field labels, instead of hardcoding, you can follow what fellow SDNs mentioned.
Here is the solution.
<li>define internal table like this.
TYPES:
 BEGIN OF t_mard,
 werks TYPE mard-werks,
 lgort TYPE mard-lgort,
 matnr TYPE mard-matnr,
 insme TYPE mard-insme,
 einme TYPE mard-einme,
 speme TYPE mard-speme,
 END OF t_mard.
DATA:
 w_mard TYPE t_mard.
DATA:
 i_mard TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t_mard.
<li>Buidl fieldcatalog internal table like below . It works
PERFORM build_fcat USING:
 "Field Int Tab ref field ref table
 'WERKS' 'I_MARD' 'WERKS' 'MARD',
 'LGORT' 'I_MARD' 'LGORT' 'MARD',
 'MATNR' 'I_MARD' 'MATNR' 'MARD',
 'INSME' 'I_MARD' 'INSME' 'MARD',
 'EINME' 'I_MARD' 'EINME' 'MARD',
 'SPEME' 'I_MARD' 'SPEME' 'MARD'.
*& Form BUILD_FCAT
FORM build_fcat USING l_field l_tab ref_field ref_tab.
w_fieldcat-fieldname = l_field.
w_fieldcat-tabname = l_tab.
w_fieldcat-ref_fieldname = ref_field.
w_fieldcat-ref_tabname = ref_tab.
* w_fieldcat-seltext_m = l_text.
APPEND w_fieldcat TO i_fieldcat.
CLEAR w_fieldcat.
ENDFORM. " BUILD_FCAT
<li> You can check program [here|http://hr-abap-freeeducation.blogspot.com/2008/04/alv-list-display_17.html]
I hope that it solves your problem.

Order value fields by field label in the profitability analysis document

Hello,
I am displaying a profitability analysis document and I want to order the value fields by their technical name (VV001, VV002, VV003...) instead of in alphabetical order (the system orders them by the field label).
Is it possible?
Thank you very much
Bea

Hello,
Check in KE4M whether sd condition type FKLMG is mapped corresponding value field in COPA.As you are getting the value for other company codes, this setting should be there.
You can also try checking simulation of billing document transfer through KE4ST. Check the details analysis

How do I create visible field labels in a pdf form that can be overwritten by text? I have tried add

I am creating a very straight forward fillable form and want to add a description of each field that can be visible to the user, but goes away when the person enters the appropriate data in the field. I have tried to suggested custom scripts. The script command were: if (!event.value) event.value = event.target.name; and
if (!event.value) {event.value = event.target.name; event.target.display = display.noPrint;} else {event.target.display = display.visible;}. Both allow the lables to be visible but neither allow the user to either replace the label with the relevant information and if it does, then the replacing data does not print/remain viewable.
I am confident this is doable as I have seen forms that say something like "add your name here" and when you enter the data that field label is replaced with the information I enter.

Hi George,
I have tried this. What I get is a field label, and I can type into the field, but the label does not go away and the page prints blank. Should I try: if (!event.value) {event.value = event.target.name; event.target.display = display.Print;} else {event.target.display = display.visible;}, removing the .noPrint?
You have no idea how frustrating it is to try this and have such a simple function not work. Is there anothe script I can try?

Rename the Field Label in the sales order application.

Hi,
          Please suggest me how to rename one of the field name in the sales order application.
        I have add a new field called YOUR_REF_SHIP and simultaneously have to rename it from your reference to Carrier Account No. this field is available in the filed group SLO_DETAILS_GENERAL1.
         This field is located in the General data tab of the sales order application.
I have created the Text Key in the Define Interface Texts and used the same text key in the Rename Field Label, but it is not working.
and i dont want to change it with the CMOD transaction.
Please suggest me where i have went wrong.
Thanks.
Anilkumar

Hello Anil,
The field groups are to be regenerated.
However, I have done a similar thing and in the past, the layout generation helped me. In the recent example, the name is not reflected as per the interface text.
Let me know if you find anything on this.

Field labels that won't go away in Address Book

Help!
Many of my contacts have credentials at the end of their names, so I use the Suffix feature to keep track of them. However, for people without credentials at the end of their names, the word "SUFFIX" appears in gray on their contact card, and I can't make it go away.
Same thing with other unused fields on any given card, such as prefix. It is pretty annoying to have "Prefix Bob Jones Suffix" on a contact card.
How do I make these field labels disappear without eliminating the field?
Thanks for your help.
PPC Mini Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Welcome to the discussions, Cobra.
Are you leaving the cards in edit mode? Those fields don't show up, if empty, unless you are in edit mode.

Changing Field Labels of module pool screen dynamically

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me how to change field label of text field in dialog screen dynamically.
The Screen/Transaction is standard one.
I have created a Enhancement point for this change in one of PBO module's subroutine for this screen.
This Field label is defined as a 'Text' field only. We can't change it any more as it is standard one.
Can anybody tell me the solution for the same.
I have to change this label value as per some validations and its corresponding text field value will remain as is.
Thanks,
Deep.

Hello,
I think it is not possible, but try changing the name by Looping on screen table on PBO,

XML Output - Issue with multiple field labels.

Dear Users,
I am trying to create an XML sheet as output for my program, and am struck at a point where I don't need field labels appearing on the XML output.
The code looks as below:
      l_element_order = l_document->create_simple_element(
            name = 'Order'
            parent = l_element_ordertype ).
      l_value = it_order-aufnr.
      l_rc = l_element_order->set_attribute( name = 'AUFNR' value = l_value ).
On my output though, both the field labels 'Order' and 'AUFNR' appear side by side. I would ideally only want the 'Order' label to appear.
Is there a method through which I can suppress the labels?!
I am using the following classes as a part of the code:
DATA: l_ostream         TYPE REF TO if_ixml_ostream,
      l_ixml            TYPE REF TO if_ixml,
      l_streamfactory   TYPE REF TO if_ixml_stream_factory,
      l_renderer        TYPE REF TO if_ixml_renderer,
      l_document        TYPE REF TO if_ixml_document,
      l_value           TYPE string.
Would be much appreciated if someone could help me with this please. Thanks!

Use of alternative field label in TMW

Hi,
I'm using a customer-specific field under
IMG>Time Management>Time Manager's Workplace
>Screen Areas>Time Data>Define Table for Time Events
and I want to change the field description displayed in TMW under the Time Events tab.
I've tried to use the alternative field label, but it doesn't work. Am I missing a step? Does anyone have any idea how to configure this?
Thanks
Al

That doesn't really help me though...I understand that it's sap standard, but why then give an option for an alternative field label if it doesn't work. Or am I not understanding that functionality?
