Make rows as non editable in ALV

[former_member197475]

Hi Experts,

I have a standard ALV table where records are fetched from backend table. Here I have a field Approved as check box.

My requirement is I need to make all the rows as non editable, if the Approved checkbox is checked. How can I achieve this.

I went through the below discussion, but still am not clear of how to achieve it.

I know to set a field as non editable in WD, but don't know how to set some specific rows as non editable in alv.

Please help me.

With Regards,

Hi,

Create an Attribute in the Context say READ_ONLY of type wdy_boolean and bind the read only of cell editor to that attribute using set_read_only_fieldname( ) method. Then set the value of attribute READ_ONLY to abap_true/abap_false based on check box value.

check this wiki for reference: How to edit conditionally row of a ALV table in Web Dynpro for ABAP - Web Dynpro ABAP - SCN Wiki

Hope this helps u,

Hi RK,

You can achieve your requirement as below

Let us say the field "approved/not approved" status is available as a column "STATUS"
Now, loop over each column and get the editor and set the read only field name to the column name "STATUS"  by using method SET_READ_ONLY_FIELDNAME( 'STATUS' )
As status column holds the approval state as true/false, it decides which row to be in editable/ non-editable

Hope this helps you.

Hi Rama,

My context node has a Dictionary Structure and it's not possible to add a boolean type attribute to it.

So I thought of creating an attribute at context level. But how can i bind it to the ALV Data node? Is there any other possibility??

Please let me know.

Hi RK,

You can add a field into the Z structure and then you can update context node for updated attributes.

Or,

You can delete the z Structure name from the NODE binding. So, that you can add an attribute directly into context node.
