HOTSPOT in ALV?

[Guest]

Hi,

Is it possible to use 'HOTSPOT' in ALV reports? I would like to go to a particular transaction from the ALV report when I click on a particular field.

Thanks for the help.

Hi,

Its possible. In field cat put HOTSPOT = 'X' on that particular field.

There's a wonderful tool in this forum called Search.

You enter in 'Search for Keywords' : 'alv AND hospot' and it returns you a number of messages.

Try the one called "alv hotpost". I've given a detailled way for handling hotspot in ALV grid.

Thomas,
I'm also currently trying to use hotspot in my ALV report. And I tried the solution you gave in your earlier post, but I keep getting syntax error.

I already have a variable w_grid declared earlier for the grid title, and I have put together the function REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE and REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY in a customer function.

I also do not see the PBO in my program? Do I need to create it?

Basically, here's what i did in the program:
----
End-of-selection.
perform display_report.

form display_report.

call function 'Z_ALV_DISPLAY'
(parameters/tables for 2 std func above)
endform.
----

Thanks for your help.

Currently, there are two approachs for displaying an ALV grid.

You can use OO methodology using a screen, PBO, PAI and create and object of type cl_gui_alv_grid.

The other way is just using classic ABAP with a call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' that do not need a screen.

I can't tell you for the moment which method is the best or if there are some restrictions for one method.

I'll try to have a look at hotspot in classic ABAP and tell you more.

I found the way to manage hotspot with function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' :

1) If not yet done, declare type group :

Code: Select all

TYPE-POOLS: slis.

2) Declare callback program and callback subroutine. SAP must know which subroutine of which program must be executed when clicking on a hotspot of an ALV grid :

Code: Select all

data : w_callback_subroutine TYPE slis_formname,
       w_callback_program LIKE sy-repid.

3) Assign value to those two variables before calling ALV grid :

Code: Select all

w_callback_program    = sy-repid.
w_callback_subroutine = 'USER_COMMAND'. 

(or any other subroutine name but in upper case)

4) Define subroutine handling double-click :

Code: Select all

FORM user_command  USING p_ucomm    LIKE sy-ucomm
                         p_selfield TYPE slis_selfield.

  CASE p_ucomm.
    WHEN '&IC1'.        " SAP standard code for double-clicking
      SET PARAMETER ID 'XXX' FIELD p_selfield-value.
      CALL TRANSACTION 'YYYY'.
  ENDCASE.

ENDFORM.

5) Call ALV grid function :

Code: Select all

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
     EXPORTING
          i_callback_program      = w_callback_program
          it_fieldcat             = it_fieldcat
          i_callback_user_command = w_callback_subroutine
     TABLES
          t_outtab                = it_data
     EXCEPTIONS
          program_error           = 1
          OTHERS                  = 2.

N.B. : don't forget in your catalog to set field 'hotspot' to 'X' for the desired field.

Regards,
Thomas.

I'm using the classic abap with func call, and your codes works perfectly. I'm now able to proceed after clicking the hotspot. Appreciate the help.

Thanks.

Hello,


Can anybody tell me how to code for getting Hotspot in ALV Report, if the Code for ALV is done in Class-Method concept ?

If possible let me know the sample code....

Thanks in Advance...

Hi

I am using classic ABAP to display 2 internal tables in an ALV report. Previously I had only 1 table in this report and I was able to use hotspots no problem.

Now with the 2 tables, I get a short dump error (GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED) when clicking on a hotspot.

The error occurs in program "SAPLSALV" in the "USER_COMMAND" form at line 1292 (see extract below). It does not even get as far as the "USER_COMMAND" form in my Z-program.

I have had this error before and the problem was with my field catalog, but I resolved the issue. Could the error this time also have something to do with the field catalog?

At the very least, could someone please provide me with an example of a simple ALV program displaying 2 tables with hot-spot functionality on both tables? I can try and work out what I am doing wrong if I have a working example to refer to.

Thanks
ES
