WD for ABAP: "Print version" of the ALV ?

Former Member
0 Kudos

In Sneack Preview 7.0, pressing the "Print version" on every ALV table (eg. ALV tutorials) I'm getting the following error:

"Print version Communication Failure: RFC destination SALV_WD_EXPORT_PDF does not exist."

Where the RFC destination should point to?

Anybody was able to get it running on the Sneack Preview?

The printing of ALV relies on Netweaver usage types that are not present in the sneak preview. You would need the AS Java, Adobe Document Services, among others. I'm not sure that the final setup instructions have been made public, as this functionality is still technically in ramp-up. I couldn't find any setup instructions in help.sap.com.

There is a released OSS note, 918236, that has not been translated to english yet. My German is rough, but it appears to be the requirements plus the setup instructiosn. According to this note, the complete Usage Type requirements are BI-Java, AS Java, and EP.

Thanks a lot Thomas.

It's true that all the components are included in NetWeaver but I hope that in the future ABAP will learn to print its own Web Dynpro ALVs without any help.
