Print ALV in pdf with header

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I've done an ALV in an iview using Component SALV_WD_TABLE. I have button 'Print view' in ALV, and when I push it I can download de ALV in PDF format. That's perfect.

Now, I want to print the ALV in PDF format with some Header information. This information is in Context, but not in the ALV.

I have donne a header in the ALV using cl_salv_wd_header and if_salv_wd_table_settings~create_header but that's not what I'm looking for. I want header in the PDF but not in the ALV view...

Any help?

Thanks and regards!

Hi,

You can set header text for PDF print specifically by use of following method

DATA: lo_cmp_usage type ref to if_wd_component_usage.
  DATA: lr_salv_wd_table TYPE REF TO iwci_salv_wd_table.
 Data: lr_function_settings TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE.
 DATA: lv_header_text type string.

*create an instance of ALV component
  lo_cmp_usage =   wd_this->wd_cpuse_OVERVIEW_RET_ALV( ).

* if not initialized, then initialize
  if lo_cmp_usage->has_active_component( ) is initial.
    lo_cmp_usage->create_component( ).
  endif.

* get ALV component
  lr_salv_wd_table = wd_this->wd_cpifc_OVERVIEW_RET_ALV( ).
  wd_this->alv_config_table = lr_salv_wd_table->get_model( ).

*  get function settings
  lr_function_settings ?= wd_this->alv_config_table.
   
 CALL METHOD LR_FUNCTION_SETTINGS->IF_SALV_WD_PDF_SETTINGS~SET_HEADER_LEFT_FREETEXT
      EXPORTING
        VALUE = LV_HEADER_TEXT. " lv_header_text is your pdf pring header

Hope this helps

it is of type ref to CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE

i was storing it as view attribute in my code

or you can directly get the lr_function_settings referece as

• get function settings

lr_function_settings ?= lr_salv_wd_table->get_model( ).
