New field not displaying in ALV

Hi all,
I have worked with ALV before, but currently I'm facing the problem of adding a new field to the ALV but it was not display on the screen. I have checked the fieldcatalog table and internal table right before the call of GRID-> SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY. All seems to be fine at this moment. Just that the new field was not displayed on the screen. Any idea?

Hello Mil
If you are using the old-fashioned ALV you will find several push-buttons for changing the ALV layout.
If you are using OO-based ALV then you will have a single push-button in the ALV toolbar with dropdown menu to select the specific function.
In any case, choose function "Change layout...". Usually you will get a popup with two lists of fields:
- on the left side you see the currently displayed fields in the ALV list
- on the right side you see fields that can additionally displayed
For sure you will find your missing field there.

Uwe

Field not displaying in ALV??

Hi Experts,
I am enhancing(just addition of one field to the existing alv display) the existing ALV report i.e. exisiting_alv
So, first, I copied the code by giving the target prog. name i.e. new_alv.
So, I started the follwoing changes in new_alv code,
I added one filed in the itab,
I added this filed in SELECT statement (its a JOIN SELECT),
I added it in the field catalog.
It worked well.
So, I want to do the same in existing_alv code, so, I did the same i.e.
I added one filed in the itab,
I added this filed in SELECT statement (its a JOIN SELECT),
I added it in the field catalog.
(In debug mode, I checked that, Weather the data is coming into ITAB or not? Its coming from DB into ITAB!)
But, here its not working, even though I tried with itab, alv field catalog order i.e. keeping my field in the first, in the last, in the middle of itab and alv filed catalog?
So,
1- What culd b the reason ie. Its working well in copied code new_alv and not working in the original existing_alv code?
2- Is it overlapping some where?
3-Bcoz of join conditions in the select statemtnt?
4-How to fix it?
If any of the reason, then Why its displaying/working well in copied prog. i.e. new_alv?
ThanQ.

Hello Sridhar
If the new field is added to the fieldcatalog and the itab then it should be displayed as additional column on the ALV list. If not then mostly likely there is a layout defined for the ALV list where this field is simply missing. Change the layout and add the missing column.

Modification for ME5xN Transactions - New Field for display on ALV

Hello Experts,
I have added a field ( ZDOC_ATTACHED) to structure CI_EBANMEM. This field is meant to indicate that documents from DMS are attached to the PO requisition line item. I would like this field to be available for display on the item overview ALV, but after days of DEBUG, I cannot find how to make this field appear on the ALV. Can anyone offer a suggestion ?
Thanks in advance for any insight/help
Larry Parsons

If I remember correctly, you should use the BAdI ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST.
The BAdI has a sample code but it is not very good. There is a very similar BAdI for purchase orders called ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST and it's sample code is much better if you need help in implementing the BAdI for the requisition.

Field not displaying in ALV but going in column-set...

Hello Gurus,
I am facing a strange issue in ALV. I am specifying the column position when I create the field list.
But when I execute the ALV, that field goes out of ALV. I have to goto ALV layout setting to move that feild from column set to be dispalyed on ALV. I am not sure why this is happening ? Can someone please help ?

Tushar.

Hi, Please check the how the fieldcatalouge is built.
Also check whether there is any default layout assigned in alv layout management.

Field of character length 255 not displaying in ALV output

Dear all,
i am trying to display a field of ztable with lenght 255 character, same is not displaying at ALV output.
it is displaying only upto 128 characters in ALV output.
table is Ztable-zfield with CHAR255 length.
please help me.
Regards,
Sam.

Hi Sam Johny,
In ALV Grid the maximum characters can be displayed in one column is 128 Characters..
But for your solution you can press Print Preview Button to view more text(or Press Ctrl + Shift + F10 )...
Else try with ALV LIST
and pass FIELDCAT-OUTPUTLEN = '255' for field in fieldcatalog
Hope it will solve your problem..
Thanks & Regards

CRM PCUI (Imp): Adding new fields & Webpage display in ODC1

Hi Gurus,
Plz help in these PCUI related configurations:
Query 1.
PCUI: Adding custom created field in a new TAB (BSP Iview)
Steps Done
a. Custom field defined in an object (say Opportunity)
b. An event created.
c. A Group Tab Page created
d. A Field group created and a new field name added to the field group (What structure need to be added to this field group?)
e. Entry made in Application Layout for an application i.e. event / position / screen element / tab page / structure. (Again what structure to be added?)
To handle this new field & tab, plz advice
1. What needs to be entered in the screen structure? Do we need to create this structure?
2. The required the model access class defined for the screen structure.
3. Any changes required in the controllers
(Where is the linking between custom field defined in the opportunity object and the new field entry made in the filed group)
Query 2.
Calling a webpage in a tab (ODC1, Detail area)
Opening a webpage in an iview can be done easily by reating a URL iview.
If the requirement is to open a web page in ODC1, than what are the steps required for the same?
e.g. On clicking a user defined tab the webpage should open in the detail area 1.
Query 3.
We have extended an object (say field addition in opportunity header) through EEWB
Will the added filed be available in PCUI screen also?

Master-detail: detail field not displayed after changed by master field

I want to use the Depends on item with Clear/refresh value functionality in a master detail situation. Within the same group it is no problem to use the setter method of a field to change a second field and then displaying this new value. But in the detail group, I can not select items from the master group as a depends on item.
In the setter of the master field, the value in a field for each row in the detail (table layout) is updated. The only problem is that this updated value is not displayed, the old value doesn't change. When saving the changes, the displayed value is committed to the database. When de updated field is not displayed at all, the correct value is saved, so I know the detail field is updated.
How can I make sure the displayed value in the detail is displayed after changeing a master field? I already gave the detail field the correct partial trigger.

Wouter,
I guese you don;t see the changed value when you display the detail item because after the depends on item update changed the detail item, JSF procesing continues and the detail table changes are sent to the server which will override again the detail item attriibute, resetting it to the old, still displayed value.
So, the trick is to get PPR working. Make sure the partialTYriggers property of the detail item is set to the value of the id property of the master item. If it still doesn't work, try setting the partial triggers property on the table, instead of the individual item.

I don't know how to read the code you pasted or I would have checked this myself.
Do your fields in the internal table reference dictionary objects or elementary types? If not using dictionary types, the column names will be blank by default. If you can't change your fields to be dictionary types, you can try this to change the column names:
I made a method inside my local class to add the names:
 call method set_colname
 EXPORTING iv_tab = alv_tab
 iv_colid = 'xxxx' "fieldname from the table
 iv_stxt = text-t54
 iv_mtxt = text-t55
 iv_ltxt = text-t55.
METHOD set_colname .
data:
 alv_cols type REF TO cl_salv_columns_table,
 alv_col type REF TO cl_salv_column.
TRY .
*... Change fieldnames
 call METHOD iv_tab->get_columns RECEIVING value = alv_cols.
 call method alv_cols->get_column EXPORTING columnname = iv_colid RECEIVING value = alv_col.
 IF iv_stxt <> ''.
 CALL METHOD alv_col->set_short_text EXPORTING value = iv_stxt.
 ENDIF.

 CALL METHOD alv_col->set_medium_text EXPORTING value = iv_mtxt.

"File Path and Name" field not displaying correctly

Post Author: DaveWoo
CA Forum: General
Hello,Here's my situation: I'm currently upgrading from Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET 2003 to Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005. I have several reports (programmatically generated using VB.NET) that use the "File Path and Name" special field. Now, in the old version of Crystal Reports (2003), the field properly displayed the original file path and name; however, in the new version (2005), the field displays as "C:\DOCUME1\Username\LOCALS1\Temp\Filename{F2459406-3719-4C8B-917C-4A7055A18C76}.tmp" - in other words, the location of the temporary .rpt file.How do I get the "File Path and Name" field to correctly display the path & name of the original file, like it did in the prior version?- Dave

This is a known issue tracked under ADAPT0000962216. At this time I do not know when this will be resolved, however Service Pack 2 for CR 2008 is targeted to be released by September and this may contain the fix.

Some report fields not displaying when users view reports in a Citrix

Hi All, got a weird one.
We have an app developed in MS Visual Studio 2007 that utilizes .NET crystal reports. Our users access these reports through citrix. Most of teh time, most people can view these reports correctly. SOME of the time, however, certain fields will disappear. The report still runs the same (grouping, ordering, etc) but key information is missing.
After re deploying the reports and / or clearing the user's roaming profile then everything is good for a while, so I know it has something to do with a temp or cached version of the report. is there a way to set .net crystal reports to NOT cache AKA create new every time?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
JOhn.

Hi John,
Yes and Yes.... 14 years...
Multiple Commands and multiple data sources without being linked can cause problems if you also use SQL Expressions. If you try to add more than one data source in the Designer you'll get a pop up warning about server side grouping and SQLExpressions can not be used.
But I don't think this would be the cause. May be a result of the option logically internal to CR but I don't think the data source would be the issue, again you said the info is there just not displayed.
Do they have access to run your app without going through Citrix? Possibly running your app using Remote Desktop. Could rule out if it's a CR issue. I think this may be a GDIPlus problem, it is the dll that renders the page and could be dropping the objects. I know MS has been patching it lately to plug security holes....
One option, if they can, is to use [Modules |https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip], get then to run it when the reports are working and then again when they are not and see if there are any dll differences...
I have heard of a few other cases with Citrix and I believe it was narrowed down to being a Citrix problem and that was as far as we could take it....
Process Monitor may help but if it's random it's a lot of info to go through to determine the cause.
Maybe logging a case with Citrix might help also....
Thanks again
Don
