Easy way is to use SAP standard function to save and read variants from database (using dummy report).

Then build up one popup window into your awd and generate selection fields dynamicly.

Hi Mahesh,

1) Under a column, you need to create cell variants (right click on column, you will see the option in context menu).

2) Assign each cell variant a unique ID (found in the properties of cell variants)

3) Insert a cell editor for each of the variants.

4) Define an attribute in the node (to which table is bound) of type string.

5) Bind this attribute to the column's selectedCellVariant property.

6) In the action handler (or wddoinit - or the place that you find to be appropriate), define the logic for having the variants on each cell. You can have different ones by just entering different ID in selectedCellVariant attribute for each element in the node.

Hope this helps.
