Help on Webdynpro ABAP TABLE Totaling

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a requirement to calculate Totals in a TABLE, I found this information in the SAP Help:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/74/fd4142646ab46be10000000a155106/frameset.htm

inside this link comes this text

"Totaling

Caution

This function should not be used by application developers. Instead they should use the ALV functions."

I got confused in here, cause I don´t understand if they are recomending to use ALV instead of a TABLE or that you can use ALV functions within your TABLE.

Hope somebody can help me with this confusion.

Kind Regards,

Hi ,

For totaling u can use both SAP List Viewer (ALV) or TABLE.If you want to use ALV ,u need to create a aggregate rule on FIELD u need to total of aggregate Type - if_salv_wd_c_aggregation=>aggrtype_total. If you want to use TABLE u need to u can go through WDR_TEST_TABLE for reference.

Thanks,

Hi Gerado,

I have always used ALV for such requirements.

But, you can do totals in TABLE UI element as well.

Please check method FILL_SFLIGHT in the view SUMMARY in the standard sample component WDR_TEST_TABLE.

It will give you the idea on totaling.
