User-defined page breaks in ALV table using CL_SALV_TABLE

[Former Member]

Hi all,

we've changed a report from the old function module REUSE_ALV_TABLE to the new CL_SALV_TABLE-class.

Unfortunately, we've lost a functionality: In the old report, the users could define a page break in the report. We just had to set the group_change_edit-field in the layout structure.

I don't find the corresponding functionality in the CL_SALV_TABLE-class. We call the set_all-method on the cl_salv_functions_list-attribute of the table, but this doesn't help.

Is there any chance to get this old functionality with the new class?

Many thanks and kind regards,

Jens Brehmen

Dear Jens,

I did not checked, whether it works.

Try to use the SORT-Object of the SALV_TABLE. Within the SORT-Object you have the method ADD_SORT with parameter GROUP:

Set this parameter to

No grouping IF_SALV_C_SORT=>GROUP_NONE

Page change IF_SALV_C_SORT=>GROUP_NEWPAGE

Underline IF_SALV_C_SORT=>GROUP_UNDERLINE

Good luck

Hi Uwe,

thank you, it is working.

The result is slightly different to what we had before:

With the old FM, I've just set the group_edit_change-attribute and afterwards the user could define his own page breaks.

Now I have to add a page break first, and then the user can define his own. But the result is OK.

Regards,

Jens
