Hi Tamanna,

You would have to basically change the cell editor of the column in which you want to display the icon into an Image. (CL_SALV_WD_UIE_IMAGE) You then specify the source of the image using either SET_SOURCE or SET_SOURCE_FIELDNAME. The process for doing this explained in detail in the link which Lekha has already passed you. (David Pietroniro's link)

If you however intend to set an icon & text within the same cell of the ALV then you need to change the cell editor of the desired ALV column into a Caption. (cl_salv_wd_uie_caption) The Caption has both a "image source" & "text" property. So you can just change the cell editor to a Caption & set these 2 properties to display both an icon & text within the same cell. Below is a code snippet explaining the same:

you can make one of the column in the ALV as the image type and assign the icon values (constants) to it.

bind the source f the image property to string attribute and set the value something like bnelow

lo_nd_tbl_as_led->set_attribute(

value = 'ICON_LED_RED'

name = 'INVALID' ).

this will be helping to create a green led icon
