1.

REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_DEFAULT_GET
Read default display variant (description only, w/o field catalog)
Provides the default variant for the list specified in the structure parameter CS_VARIANT of a
program
2. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4
Display variant selection dialog box
Possible entries help, if the variant is defined explicitly as an input field on a screen. The
selection must be specified by at least partially filling the parameter structure IS_VARIANT.
3. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_EXISTENCE
Checks whether a display variant exists
This function module checks the existence in the database of a display variant passed in the
interface.
4. REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET
Returns table of possible events for a list type
This table can be passed to the ALV display module with the form name.
5. REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE
List body comment block output
List header information is output according to its type. The output information is put in an internal
table. Output attributes are assigned to each line via the TYP field.
This module outputs formatted simple header information at TOP-OF-PAGE.
Example
List <-- Type 'H'
Currency DEM Controlling area currency <-- Type 'S'
Material FGS_TEST Test material <-- Type 'S'
Action info <-- Type 'A'

6. REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE
Create field catalog from dictionary structure or internal table
Supports the creation of the field catalog for the ALV function modules based either on a
structure or table defined in the ABAP Data Dictionary, or a program-internal table.
The program-internal table must either be in a TOP Include or its Include must be specified
explicitly in the interface.
The variant based on a program-internal table should only be used for rapid prototyping since the
following restrictions apply:
Performance is affected since the code of the table definition must always be read and
interpreted at runtime.
Dictionary references are only considered if the keywords LIKE or INCLUDE STRUCTURE (not
TYPE) are used.
If the field catalog contains more than 90 fields, the first 90 fields are output in the list by default
whereas the remaining fields are only available in the field selection.
If the field catalog is passed with values, they are merged with the 'automatically' found
information.
7. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY
Output a simple list (single line or several lines)
This module outputs an internal table with any structure as a formatted one-line or multiple-line
list.
Principle:Pass an internal table with the set of output information
Pass a structure with general list layout details
Pass a field catalog as an internal table
The field catalog describes the fields to be output in the list.
All actions on the list refer directly to the internal output table, e.g. sorting the list also sorts the
passed internal output table (passed by reference).
An important consideration for the use of the tools and certain generic functions (totals,
subtotals) is the expected amount of data to be displayed.
The application must take this consideration into account.
8. REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY
Output of a simple list (single-line)
The function module outputs an internal table with whatever structure in the form of a formatted
single- oder multi-line list.
Process:
Passing an internal table with the set of information to be output
Passing a structure with general layout specifications for list layout
Passing a field catalog in the form of an internal table
The field catalog describes the fields to be output in the list.
All interactions performed on the list refer directly to the internal output table. Sorting the list, for
example, also involves a resorting of the internal output table passed (since it was passed by
reference).
An important factor determining the usability of the tool or of various generic functions (totals,
subtotals) is the expected amount of data to be displayed.
The application is responsible for critically testing this aspect and consider
9. REUSE_ALV_POPUP_TO_SELECT
List in dialog box to choose one or more entries (or display only)
Module for displaying or selecting table entries in internal tables in a popup (single or multiple
selection is possible).
Principle:
pass an internal table with the superset of information to be output
pass list layout detail flags
pass a field catalog in the form of an internal table
The field catalog describes the fields to be output in the list.
Further information
The module uses the function module 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY' internally. The
documentation of this module contains further information about the field catalog.
