Drilldown Functionality for Multiple-Line Basic Lists

Prerequisites

You have executed a query and chosen ABAP List as the display format.

Use

With multiple line basic lists, you can sometimes choose between an expanded format and a compressed format.

Displaying a basic list in expanded/compressed format

The Expand and Compress functions enable you to switch between a complete display and a compressed display of the data.
Detail View

You can completely display the information that belongs to lines of a compressed basic list using the menu path Edit Detailed view.

Example

If we run the Detail View function for a flight from the basic list in the above example, the flight and all the bookings belonging to it are displayed in a branch list.
Back

To return to the original list, select Back.

Integration

Compression may extend over several levels. Whether and to what extent this is possible, and which lines of a multiple line basic list are output in a compressed list, depends on the structure of the logical database to which the query refers. You are not able to influence this when you define a query, unless you modify the structure of the individual lines.
