Sorting output in a Generic iView table

[Former Member]

I've add a generic iView table to the general information FPM application and I'm returning data from a query successfully. Only problem is I cannot sort the columns returned from the query in the generic iView. Is this possible, and if so, how??

Thanks,

Richard,

Pretty sure you can only control the sort order in the adhoc query itself, and not from the iView as the end user sees it. It is a Java WebDynpro application just outputting a simple table.

Now if SAP built the generic iView in WebDynpro ABAP and output as ALV, you would probably get sorting, filtering, printing, export to Excel etc. Wouldn't that be nice........

Hi John,

Thanks for the answer, and it's as I feared. It's a shame too, as that's the basic sort of functionality that most users would like.

Cheers,

Richard
