cl_salv_table - Save Layout

[Former Member]

I am using cl_salv_table to display an ALV but I can't get the save layout option to be available (in the menu path or on the toolbar). Is this not possible? Below is the code I am using to display:

  call method cl_salv_table=>factory
*    EXPORTING
*      list_display   = IF_SALV_C_BOOL_SAP=>FALSE
*      r_container    =
*      container_name =
    importing
      r_salv_table   = gr_table
    changing
      t_table        = it_out.

gr_functions = gr_table->get_functions( ).
  gr_functions->set_all( abap_true ).

  gr_display = gr_table->get_display_settings( ).
  gr_display->set_striped_pattern( cl_salv_display_settings=>true ).
  gr_display->set_list_header( 'Cash Receipts Log' ).

  gr_sorts = gr_table->get_sorts( ).
*  TRY.

  call method gr_sorts->add_sort
  exporting
    columnname = 'BUKRS'
*      position   =
*      sequence   = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>SORT_UP
    subtotal   = if_salv_c_bool_sap=>false
*      group      = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>GROUP_NONE
*      obligatory = IF_SALV_C_BOOL_SAP=>FALSE
*    receiving
*      value      =
    .

  call method gr_sorts->add_sort
  exporting
    columnname = 'GKONT'
*      position   =
*      sequence   = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>SORT_UP
    subtotal   = if_salv_c_bool_sap=>false
*      group      = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>GROUP_NONE
*      obligatory = IF_SALV_C_BOOL_SAP=>FALSE
*    receiving
*      value      =
    .

  call method gr_sorts->add_sort
  exporting
    columnname = 'XREF1'
*      position   =
*      sequence   = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>SORT_UP
    subtotal   = if_salv_c_bool_sap=>false
*      group      = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>GROUP_NONE
*      obligatory = IF_SALV_C_BOOL_SAP=>FALSE
*    receiving
*      value      =
    .

  call method gr_sorts->add_sort
  exporting
    columnname = 'ZUONR'
*      position   =
*      sequence   = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>SORT_UP
    subtotal   = if_salv_c_bool_sap=>false
*      group      = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>GROUP_NONE
*      obligatory = IF_SALV_C_BOOL_SAP=>FALSE
*    receiving
*      value      =
    .

  call method gr_sorts->add_sort
  exporting
    columnname = 'BUDAT'
*      position   =
*      sequence   = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>SORT_UP
    subtotal   = if_salv_c_bool_sap=>true
*      group      = IF_SALV_C_SORT=>GROUP_NONE
*      obligatory = IF_SALV_C_BOOL_SAP=>FALSE
*    receiving
*      value      =
    .


  gr_columns = gr_table->get_columns( ).
  gr_column ?= gr_columns->get_column( 'GKONT').
  gr_column->set_long_text( 'Account Assignment Number' ).
  gr_column->set_medium_text( 'Account Assignment' ).
  gr_column->set_short_text( 'Account #' ).


  gr_agg = gr_table->get_aggregations( ).
  gr_agg->add_aggregation( 'WRBTR' ).

* Display
  gr_table->display( ).

use the following coding to enable the save layout functionality.

DATA: gr_layout TYPE REF TO cl_salv_layout.
DATA: key TYPE salv_s_layout_key.

gr_layout = gr_table->get_layout( ).
key-report = sy-repid.
gr_layout->set_key( key ).
* You can pass the folling values to the SET_SAVE_RESTRICTION method.
*RESTRICT_NONE
*RESTRICT_USER_DEPENDANT
*RESTRICT_USER_INDEPENDANT
gr_layout->set_save_restriction( if_salv_c_layout=>restrict_none ).

Also, you may want to look at this for reference.

If I want to allow the user to specify a variant, how do I do that. Right now I am using the f4_layouts method, passing the variant.

PARAMETERS:       p_layout    TYPE disvariant-variant.

*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
* AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST                                 *
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_layout.
  PERFORM f4_layouts USING cl_salv_layout=>restrict_none CHANGING p_layout.


*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*&      Form  F4_LAYOUTS
*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*       text
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
*      -->P_IF_SALV_C_LAYOUT=>RESTRICT_NON  text
*      <--P_P_LAYOUT  text
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
FORM f4_layouts USING i_restrict TYPE salv_de_layout_restriction
CHANGING c_layout TYPE disvariant-variant.

  DATA: ls_layout TYPE salv_s_layout_info,
        ls_key    TYPE salv_s_layout_key.

  ls_key-report = sy-repid.

  ls_layout = cl_salv_layout_service=>f4_layouts(
  s_key    = ls_key
  restrict = i_restrict ).

  c_layout = ls_layout-layout.

ENDFORM.                    " F4_LAYOUTS

It is allowing the user to press F4 but the layout doesn't get transferred to the ALV. I included the code that Rich posted and it does now allow for a save.

Call this method of CL_SALV_LAYOUT.

GS_LAYOUT->SET_INITIAL_LAYOUT ( C_layout ).

Yes, I would think that you would then need to set the layout to the grid.

gr_layout->set_initial_layout( p_layout ).

Thanks. I was reading the documentation and it sounded like doing that overwrote any user-defined layout.
