The ALV Grid Control in the Web (SAP Library - ALV Grid Control (BC-SRV-ALV))

The ALV Grid Control in the Web

To display ALV lists in the Web, you use functions of the ALV Grid Control on the backend (an exception are add-on applications). Basically, there are two ways to display ALV lists:

In the SAP GUI for HTML. This corresponds - with restrictions - to a 1:1 mapping of the transaction in the SAP System.

In the Workplace. Highly simplified versions of the ALV Grid Control (MiniALV and MidiALV) are used to integrate lists into applications of the Workplace.

Note

It is indeed possible to display an SAP transaction with an ALV Grid Control in the Workplace. In this case, the SAP GUI for HTML is integrated into the Workplace.
