How to Define SAP ABAP ALV Report Output list description

In the previous Post ,we have discussed about SAP ABAP ALV Reports data declaration ,Events Table ,Selecting the optional Variants and Output Field Characteristics and their importance in ALV report ,from this post ,we will learn about ALV Report Output list description which defines the list output that is ALV layout which user want to display on the real time screen.
How to Define SAP ABAP ALV Report Output list description


A layout is build for the report output list description USING the internal table declared above (I_LAYOUT).



Output list description structure.
     The parameters are described under the following heads:
-          Display options
-          Exceptions
-          Totals
-          Interaction
-          Detail screen
-          Display variants (only for hierarchical-sequential lists)
-          Color
-          Other
The layout table is of type slis_layout_alv_spec and has the following fields:

 Display options 

1. Colwidth_optimize (1) TYPE c: This parameter optimizes the length of the different columns in the output. The width of the different col. now depends on the max. Length of the data in the column.
Value set: SPACE, 'X'
'X' = optimizes the column width so that all contents are displayed completely.                 


 2. No_colhead (1) TYPE c: This parameter suppresses the column headings                 
Value set: SPACE, 'X'.
'X' = column headers are not output


 3*. No_hotspot*(1) TYPE c :  The headings of the report output are not output as hotspot.     
Value set: SPACE, 'X'.
'X' = column headers are not output as hotspot


4*. Zebra*(1) TYPE c : The report is output in the striped pattern.           
Value set: SPACE, 'X'.
'X' = striped pattern (e.g. for wide lists)


5. No_vline (1) TYPE c: The report output contains columns only separated by space and no lines.  It is not relevant for: hierarchical-sequential lists and multiple-line lists.
Value set: SPACE, 'X'.
'X' = columns separated by SPACE


6. No_min_linesize(1) TYPE c : The report  line size is equal to the width of the list. It is not relevant for block lists.

'X' = line size depends on list width
'  ' = Line size is set to 80 or MIN_LINESIZE (if > 0) .


7. Min_linesize LIKE sy-linsz: The report output contains a minimum possible length of line. If initial min_linesize is set to 80 by default, then this parameter is used to customize it. The prerequisite for this is that the parameter no_min_linesize should be ' '.
Value set: 0, 10 - 250
If the list is wider, the format uses the list width (maximum 250 or MAX_LINESIZE (if > 0)).


8. Max_linesize LIKE sy-linsz: The default max. Linesize is 250. To change this default value, this parameter can interactively-define the maximum list width setting.
Value set: 0, 80 - 1020

25. Box_fieldname TYPE slis_fieldname: Fieldname for checkbox in the report output. If the list has checkboxes at the start of records (for selecting several records), this parameter contains the internal output table field name indicated by the checkbox selection column. The field is a checkbox at the start of list records without a list header.
Value set: SPACE, internal output table field name

42. Header_text (20) TYPE c: Text for header button. Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists. You can toggle between display field and field list views via pushbuttons in the display variant definition popup for hierarchical-sequential lists. The views refer to the hierarchy level of the fields. This is technically a toggle between the header table and item table fields. 
Value set: SPACE, CHAR (20)
' ' = The header table field pushbutton text is 'Header' by default.
CHAR (20) = header table field pushbutton text.


43.item_text(20) TYPE c : Text for item button. Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists.

Value set: SPACE, internal output table field name
The internal output table field must be of type CHAR(3).
The code must have the following syntax:  'Cxy':
        C = color (all codes must start with 'C')
        X = color number ('1'-'9')
        Y = bold ('0' = off, '1' = on)

46. Coltab_fieldname TYPE slis_fieldname: Cells can be colored individually using a color code which is contained in a column of the internal output table for the record containing the cell. Assign the name of the field to this parameter.     
 Others                                             

47. List_append(1) TYPE c :  no call screen. It is only useful to output block-lists without specifying the above modules if the number of list blocks exceeds, or may exceed, the maximum number specified in the block module documentation. These operations are not possible for user-defined block lists.


Example code :
        I_LAYOUT-f2code       = ws_fcode.
