    The key takeaways from the document are that ALV (ABAP List Viewer) can be used to create reports with features like sorting, filtering and formatting without needing to write complex code. It allows three types of reports to be created - simple, hierarchical and sequential reports. Some main advantages of ALV include a better user interface, ability to handle events and export data.

    The different types of reports that can be created using ALV are: 1) Simple Report 2) Hierarchical Report 3) Sequential Report

    Some advantages of using ALV mentioned in the document include having a better looking and user friendly interface for sorting, filtering and formatting data. It also allows for features like summation, downloading to Excel, handling events better and removing the need to specify exact positions in write statements.

    ABAP List Viewer (ALV)

    Introduction
    The common features of report are column alignment, sorting, filtering, subtotals, totals etc. To implement these, a lot of coding and logic is to be put. To avoid that we can use a concept called ABAP List Viewer (ALV). Using ALV, we can have three types of reports: 1. Simple Report 2. Hierarchical Sequential Report ALV can be performed using two ways: 1. Using Function Modules

    2. Using Classes and Objects (Not covered in this session )

    Advantages of ALV
    Looks better. User friendly 1. Filtering / Sorting

    2. Layout Change / Save


    3. Summation, Download to excel, E-Mail 4. Data can be open for input / change etc. Better Event handling Width of more than 256 characters possible Programming overhead of mentioning exact positions in write statements not needed.

    Steps involved in creating a simple ALV report


    Define field catalogue internal table which is of type slis_t_fieldcat_alv. This table contains the field attributes. Define Layout structure which is of type slis_layout_alv Define Events internal table which is of type slis_alv_event. This internal table contains all the possible events of ALV. Populating these tables into the Function Module as parameters. These Function Modules are used in displaying the output data. All the definitions of internal tables, structures, and constants are declared in type-pool called SLIS.

    Step -1
    1. Define field catalogue internal table which is of type slis_t_fieldcat_alv Eg : t_ls_fieldcat type slis_t_fieldcat_alv t_ls_fieldcat-tabname = t_spfli. t_ls_fieldcat-fieldname = scarr. t_ls_fieldcat-ref_tabname = par_reftabname. t_ls_fieldcat-ref_fieldname = par_ref_fieldname. t_ls_fieldcat-seltext_m = par_seltext. t_ls_fieldcat-input = par_input. t_ls_fieldcat-outputlen = 30. t_ls_fieldcat-do_sum = X.

    APPEND t_ls_fieldcat.

    Step - 2
    2. Defining Layout structure which is of type slis_layout_alv Eg : par_ls_layout-zebra = X. par_ls_layout-no_colhead = X. par_ls_layout-no_hotspot = X.

    Step - 3
    3. Define Events internal table which is of type slis_alv_event and call it in function module REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET.

    Step - 4

    This step contain the function modules which displays the data in the list. Following are the function modules :
    Simple Report Reuse_alv_list_display Reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge Reuse_alv_events_get Reuse_alv_commentary_write Reuse_alv_grid_display

    Hierarchical Report Reuse_alv_hierseq_list_dispaly

    Reuse_alv_list_display
    This is the Function Module which prints the data.
    CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY' EXPORTING I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM = G_REPID

    I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'SFLIGHT'
    IS_LAYOUT = GS_LAYOUT IT_FIELDCAT = GT_FIELDCAT[ ] IT_SPECIAL_GROUPS = GT_SP_GROUP[ ] I_SAVE = G_SAVE IS_VARIANT = G_VARIANT IT_EVENTS = GT_EVENTS[ ] * IMPORTING * E_EXIT_CAUSED_BY_CALLER = TABLES T_OUTTAB = GT_SFLIGHT.

    10

    Reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge
    This Function Module is used to populate a field catalog which is essential to display the data in ALV.
    CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE ' EXPORTING I_PROGRAM_NAME = I_INTERNAL_TABNAME = I_STRUCTURE_NAME = I_CLIENT_NEVER_DISPLAY = 'X' I_INCLNAME = I_BYPASSING_BUFFER = I_BUFFER_ACTIVE = CHANGING CT_FIELDCAT = EXCEPTIONS INCONSISTENT_INTERFACE =1 PROGRAM_ERROR =2 OTHERS = 3.

    11

    Reuse_alv_events_get
    Returns table of possible events for a list type.
    CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET' EXPORTING I_LIST_TYPE = 0 IMPORTING ET_EVENTS = E03_LT_EVENTS.

    12

    Reuse_alv_commentary_write
    This is used in the Top-of-page event to print the headings and other comments for the list. E.g.
    refresh GT_LIST_TOP_OF_PAGE. Move H to GT_LIST_TOP_OF_PAGE-typ. Move Materials Display to GT_LIST_TOP_OF_PAGE-info. Append GT_LIST_TOP_OF_PAGE. FORM TOP_OF_PAGE. CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE' EXPORTING IT_LIST_COMMENTARY = GT_LIST_TOP_OF_PAGE. ENDFORM.

    13

    Reuse_alv_grid_display
    A new function in 4.6 version, to display the results in grid rather than as a list.
    CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' EXPORTING I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM = G_REPID I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'SFLIGHT IS_LAYOUT = GS_LAYOUT IT_FIELDCAT = GT_FIELDCAT[ ] IT_SPECIAL_GROUPS = GT_SP_GROUP[ ] I_SAVE = G_SAVE Report program Name Structure of ALV Layout of ALV Catalog for Headings in ALV

    IS_VARIANT = G_VARIANT
    IT_EVENTS = GT_EVENTS[ ] * IMPORTING * E_EXIT_CAUSED_BY_CALLER = TABLES T_OUTTAB = GT_SFLIGHT.

    A layout is build for the report output description USING the internal table for Layout (I_LAYOUT). The layout parameters are described under the following heads: Display options

    Exceptions
    Totals Interaction Detail screen

    Color
    Other

    The Sorting and/or Subtotaling of the basic list.


    The Table IT_SORT is populated with the sort criteria for the different fields. The caller specifies the Sorting and/or Subtotaling of the basic list in the internal table IT_SORT. This internal table has the following fields: spos : Sort sequence fieldname : Internal output table field name tabname : Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists. Name of the internal output table. up : 'X' = sort in ascending order down : 'X' = sort in descending order subtot : 'X' = subtotal at group value change

    group : '* ' = new page at group value change ,'UL' = underline at group value change
