OO ALV buffer problem

Hello all,

When a workflow work item is executed, a function module is called that displays a screen. The workitem calls a function module that displays an ALV on a screen. The same ALV is displayed for 3 different workitems.

I am changing the field catalog based on certain criteria to set an individual field to be editable/non-editable. I can see that the edit field in the field catalog contains the appropriate value, but the grid does not reflect what is in the field catalog.

The first workitem displays the ALV correctly.

The second and third workitems display the ALV using fieldcat values from the first workitem. The fieldcat contains the correct values when the grid is displayed using method "set_table_for_first_display".

If I log off of SAP and log back on, the second workitem ALV displays with the correct value. But the third workitem now display with the fieldcat values from the second workitem.

If I log off of SAP and log back on, the third workitem ALV displays with the correct value.

Any thought on what I need to do to correct this problem?

This is the logic that creates and displays the ALV in the PBO of the screen of the function module.

clear: il_fieldcat, l_layout.
  refresh: il_fieldcat.
  free: il_fieldcat.
