Saving variant in ALV

hi ,
i have displayed data using method set_table_for_first_display of class CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.
not i have a requirement to provide the functionality to save the variant in alvtoolbar to save the variant so that user can display the required fields only.
we have the variant functionality were user can select the required fields but how can we save that variant?
regards
vijay

if you provide the following option then you will be able to save the variant.
call method grid->set_table_for_first_display
    exporting
      is_layout        = layout    "This is required
      is_variant       = variant    "This is required
      i_save           = 'U'   " X or A also possible   "This is required
      i_structure_name = 'I_ALV'
    changing
      it_outtab        = i_alv[]
      it_fieldcatalog = fieldcat[].

Saving variants in ALV

Hi I created a ALV report which is supposed to save variants.
But in my program the save button is missing.
all we can do is display/ hide some selected fileds.
How can i enable the save button?

Just apply this in your Code....first execute the report and save it in a name...next time u can choose the same layout in the selection screen itself.
data:
wk_variant like disvariant,
wx_variant like disvariant,
wk_variant_save(1) type c,
wk_exit(1) type c,
wk_repid like sy-repid.

What is the button to change the variant in alv?

Hi guys,

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.

Variants for alv

please let me know about variants in alv??
with details.
why we use variants at alvs??
please let me know

We can change the display of the list by using the display variants. Basically the display variants decide the appearance of the list. We can save display variants of the list by going Settings  Display variant  Save of the ALV display.
We can ask the ALV to use a particular display variant for display. We have to pass the variant name to the display FM through the parameter IS_VARIANT (explained earlier). We can also provide a selection to the user in the selection screen to select a particular display variant. The FM used to obtain the F4 help for the selection of the layout or the variant is explained next.
F4 HELP FOR DISPLAY VARIANTS (REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4)
The function module REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4 gives a popup to the user to select the display variant from a list of variants, which have been already saved.
Some of the important parameters of the above function modules are:
1.      IS_VARIANT (Like DISVARIANT) (Export Parameter)
Pass the program name in the field REPORT of this structure.
2.      I_SAVE (Export Parameter)
Set this parameter as A if you want to give the user an option to save an output layout user specifically or as a standard variant.
Set this parameter as U if you want to give the user an option to save an output layout only user specifically
Set this parameter as X for standard save only
Leave it blank to provide no save option.
3.      ES_VARIANT (Like DISVARIANT) (Import Parameter)
Pass the same variable as was passed for the first parameter. When we select a particular layout to be used, The FM returns the name of the variant in the field VARIANT of this structure.

Vidya

Saving Data from ALV.

hi all.
I have an issue regarding saving data from alv to data base table.
The problem is like this. I have an internal table consist of 10 column from three diferent tables.one primary key is there.
now i have displayed it in alv grid. there is a column of quantity. i made some changes in quantity of some rows. now i want to save it into the database table from which that quantity field fetched.
i used first check_changed_data method. if the flag is set it means data is changed.
wat shud i do to save that quantity column into data base.
Thanks In advance.
varu

Hi,
To modify database or ztable from the ALV grid,you need to do the following:
---You have to modify the field Catalog fields (fields that you want to make editable).Set the field EDIT as 'X'.For example if you want to make the field below editable:
ls_fcat-fieldname = 'CARRID'.
ls_fcat-edit = 'X'.
APPEND ls_fcat TO pt_fieldcat.
---Call the method below before you call the set_table_for_first_display.
CALL METHOD ALV_GRID_INSTANCE->set_ready_for_input
EXPORTING
i_ready_for_input = 0. ( For Display ) and ('1' for Edit )
After this put the set_table_for_first_display.
Now if the ALV data has changed,and you want to change the database or ztable,then in your pf status give a function code for SAVE button in the GUI.
In the PAI of the screen,in user command module write the following:
WHEN 'SAVE'.
call method gr_alvgrid->check_changed_data
importing e_valid = l_valid.
if l_valid = 'X'.
MODIFY spfli FROM TABLE itab_spfli.
endif.
(l_valid is a flag.
DATA:l_valid type c.
If you want to check if the user has entered any value on the grid, use the Method : CALL METHOD gr_alvgrid->check_changed_data.
This method returns a flag l_valid which can be checked to see if the data on the ALV grid has been changed or not.)

Variant in ALV selection screen

Hi friends,
How to protect a variant in ALV selection screen from changing or deleting by other users.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Rajesh,
You still need someone to be able to change the variant, right? That is what exactly PROTECT VARIANT does.
If you select the field Protect variant, the variant can only be changed by the person who created it or last changed it.

Ravi

Need to know fields saved in a ALV variant

I have an ALV grid display.the users have ALV layout variants saved.
Is there someway in the program to identify what are all the columns that are part of the layout selected.. Probably there is a standard ALV standard FM or mathod that gives this

Maybe you can try this...LVC_VARIANT_SAVE_LOAD

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?
thanks in advance

Check this code that I got from Rich Heilman when I had the same problem. If you find out which you have by using
RS_CUA_GET_STATUS_FUNCTIONS and then exclude the ones you don't want.
Sure...check out the following code.

Issue in setting layout variant in ALV tables

Hi,
I have 2 ALV’s displaying in a view, 1’st is a header data & 2’nd Item data.
Based on the row selection in the Header ALV, the data is determined and displayed in the 2’nd ALV i.e., the Item data.
Now the 2’nd ALV (Item data) can contain 20 columns so based on certain requirement I want to save a layout variant with only 10 Columns for display in the 2’nd ALV.
But the issue what is happening is once I change my row selection in the 1’st ALV (Header data) the layout in the second ALV is refreshing back to the 20 fields EVEN though the name of the variant layout still displays the one I saved earlier.
I have searched the SCN for this issue and found http://scn.sap.com/thread/1986147, but it does NOT work.
Could anyone please suggest a solution.
Thanks & Regards,
Divaker

Hi Katrice,
      Thank you for the reply and the links, I will go through them, but please find below the code that I presently have in place, could you please advise if there is anything missing or wrong in here.
