How to add columns in ALV grid in transaction CATS_APPR_LITE

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am trying to add a new column to the ALV grid in transaction CATS_APPR_LITE. I have checked out the BADI called "CATS_REPORTING", and found a method called "BEFORE_DISPLAY_APPR". I've tried to perform simple tasks with this method, e.g. changing the column headers in the ALV, and this works fine.

However, I want to add a new column to this ALV. I have managed to add the new column, "X", to the field catalouge. But when I try to display the column i the transaction (by selecting the new column from the "Change Layout" option), I get a short dump.

I have also added the new field to the structure CI_CATSDB.

Does anyone have any idea how to add this new column properly?

All helpful answers will be rewarded!

Best regards,

I executed the program BALVBUFDEL (Reset ALV buffer), and this solved the problem!

Hi all,

My issue is almost the same, but this time I need to add the CATSFIELDS-DISPTEXT1 into CATS_APPR_LITE ALV.

When I tried to add this field into field-catalog ALV, the system gives me a dumpl, cause this field is not in CI_CATSDB structure.

How can I do it? I just need to add this field (CATSFIELDS-DISPTEXT1) into ALV, not a CI_CATSDB field.

Thx!!!
