A Comprehensive Guide to Interactive SAP ALV

Extensive ALV Report Programming

Having worked on a variety of projects and utilizing interactive SAP ALV OOPs ideas extensively, I had the idea to compile a document that would provide helpful information to help developers meet most of the design requirements found in interactive ALV reports.

Now let’s begin our topic for today.

Make the Container Reference Object:

Type “ALV_CONT” in the container that appears on the screen.

CREATE OBJECT container_r
        EXPORTING
          container_name              = 'ALV_CONT'
        EXCEPTIONS
          cntl_error                  = 1
          cntl_system_error           = 2
          create_error                = 3
          lifetime_error              = 4
          lifetime_dynpro_dynpro_link = 5.

As shown below, create the ALV Grid’s Reference Object:

CREATE OBJECT grid_r
          EXPORTING
            i_parent = container_r.

4. Define ALV Layout as below:

gw_layout-cwidth_opt = abap_true.
gw_layout-zebra = abap_true.
gw_layout-sel_mode = ‘D’.

5. Enter data into the Field Catalog such that it appears as follows:
Regarding Field Editable: 5.1Furthermore, the field (such as ANLKL) that will host the summation must be defined as follows:

lv_pos = lv_pos + 1.              “Position number
CLEAR wa_fieldcat.
wa_fieldcat-fieldname = 'BUKRS'.  "Company Code
wa_fieldcat-col_pos = lv_pos.
wa_fieldcat-ref_table = 'T001'.
APPEND wa_fieldcat TO gt_fieldcat.

5.1. For Field Editable:

wa_fieldcat-edit = abap_true.

5.2. For the output field “No Display”:

wa_fieldcat-no_out = abap_true.   “Check for field display

5.3. To show the field as a checkbox:

wa_fieldcat-checkbox = abap_true.

5.4. For the field that needs customized F4-Help:

wa_fieldcat-f4availabl  = abap_true.

5.5. For the field that needs the summary:

wa_fieldcat-do_sum = abap_true.

Furthermore, the field (such as ANLKL) that will host the summation must be defined as follows:

CLEAR li_sort.

lst_sort-fieldname = 'ANLKL'.

lst_sort-subtot = abap_true.

APPEND lst_sort TO li_sort

6. To Limit Features on ALV Display:

lw_exclude = cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_fc_check.
APPEND lw_exclude TO gt_exclude.
lw_exclude = cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_fc_refresh.
APPEND lw_exclude TO gt_exclude.
lw_exclude = cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_fc_loc_copy_row.
APPEND lw_exclude TO gt_exclude.
lw_exclude = cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_fc_loc_delete_row.
APPEND lw_exclude TO gt_exclude.
lw_exclude = cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_fc_loc_append_row.
APPEND lw_exclude TO gt_exclude.
lw_exclude = cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_fc_loc_insert_row.
APPEND lw_exclude TO gt_exclude.

7 Add data to the GT_DATA table.

8 To display data, use the set_table_for_first_display function.

CALL METHOD grid_r->set_table_for_first_display
EXPORTING
i_structure_name     = 'ZFI_S_PIS'  “Structure
is_layout            = gw_layout
it_toolbar_excluding = gt_exclude
i_save               = gc_save_a   "A
i_default            = abap_true
CHANGING
it_outtab            = gt_data[]     “Table with ALV data

It_sort              = li_sort
it_fieldcatalog      = gt_fieldcat[].
CALL METHOD cl_gui_control=>set_focus
EXPORTING
control = grid_r.

Data declaration for Reference:

Data:

container_r TYPE REF TO cl_gui_custom_container,      "Container for ALV PIS data

grid_r TYPE REF TO cl_gui_alv_grid,                                "Grid for ALV PIS data

gt_exclude TYPE ui_functions,                                            "Exclude functions from ALV

gt_fieldcat TYPE lvc_t_fcat,                                                "Field catalog for ALV PIS data

ref_aplic TYPE REF TO lcl_application_alv,

gw_layout   TYPE lvc_s_layo.                                              "Layout for PIS

9. If there’s merely a data refresh required:

CALL METHOD grid_r->refresh_table_display
EXCEPTIONS
finished = 1
OTHERS   = 2.

10. When invoking ALV for display, use the following approach to make fields editable:

CALL METHOD grid_r->register_edit_event
EXPORTING
i_event_id = cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_evt_modified.  " enter.  "MC_EVT_MODIFIED

In order to verify the modified data in the grid, we must now complete the following tasks:

11.1. Specify the definition and implementation of a class (lcl_application_alv), and specify an event (handle_data_changed) for the data_changed event of the class CL_gui_alv_grid.

CLASS lcl_application_alv DEFINITION.
PUBLIC SECTION.
METHODS:
handle_data_changed
FOR EVENT data_changed OF cl_gui_alv_grid
IMPORTING er_data_changed e_onf4_after.
ENDCLASS.                    "lcl_application_alv DEFINITION

11.2. To obtain and alter cell values as follows, invoke the methods get_cell_value and modify_cell in the handle_data_changed method.

LOOP AT er_data_changed->mt_good_cells INTO lw_good.

WHEN 'KUNNR'.
CALL METHOD er_data_changed->get_cell_value
EXPORTING
i_row_id    = lw_good-row_id
i_fieldname = lw_good-fieldname
IMPORTING
e_value     = gv_kunnr.
*     Get name1 for the kunnr
SELECT SINGLE name1 FROM kna1
INTO lw_pis-name1
WHERE kunnr = gv_kunnr .
IF sy-subrc = 0.
*              update name1 in table
CALL METHOD er_data_changed->modify_cell
EXPORTING
i_row_id    = lw_good-row_id
i_fieldname = 'NAME1'
i_value     = lv_name1.
ELSE.
MESSAGE i000 WITH 'Invalid Customer number in row'(027)
lw_good-row_id.
ENDIF.

12 Now, write the following code before invoking the set_table_for_first_display method:

CREATE OBJECT ref_aplic.
SET HANDLER ref_aplic->handle_data_changed FOR grid_r.

After the field catalog data is populated, call the set_frontend_fieldcatalog method to refresh the field catalog settings if the Field Catalog needs to change when different actions are performed for the ALV grid data presentation.

CALL METHOD grid_r->set_frontend_fieldcatalog
EXPORTING
it_fieldcatalog = gt_fieldcat[].

If the ALV requires that Conditional F4 Help data be entered, for example, because one field’s data requires that another field’s F4-Help data be entered, then take the following actions:

14.1. In order to receive customized F4-help, we must first register the fields as follows before invoking the set_table_for_first_display method:

lw_f4-fieldname  = 'ZFI_BRN_LOC'.    "IFSC code
lw_f4-register   = abap_true.
lw_f4-getbefore  = space.
lw_f4-chngeafter = abap_true.
INSERT lw_f4 INTO TABLE lt_f4.

CLEAR lw_f4.
lw_f4-fieldname  = 'STGRD'.  "Reason for Reversal
lw_f4-register   = abap_true.
lw_f4-getbefore  = space.
INSERT lw_f4 INTO  TABLE lt_f4.

CALL METHOD grid_r->register_f4_for_fields
EXPORTING
it_f4 = lt_f4.

14.2. In class lcl_application_alv, define the method and then implement it.

METHODS:
handle_on_f4 FOR EVENT onf4 OF cl_gui_alv_grid
IMPORTING sender
e_fieldname
e_fieldvalue
es_row_no
er_event_data
et_bad_cells
e_display.

14.3. In class lcl_application_alv implementation, implement the method handle_on_f4.

15. Clear and refresh as follows when you touch the Back button:

CALL METHOD grid_r->refresh_table_display.
CALL METHOD grid_r->free.
CALL METHOD container_r->free.
CALL METHOD cl_gui_cfw=>flush.

16. Add this code to an ALV to make it invisible:

19. Display Top-of-Page:

We would now like to speak with you.

Do you believe that we have addressed the majority of the ALV points?

In either scenario, kindly write a brief remark below, regardless of whether you believe we have covered everything.
