Below is a list of some of the technical restrictions when using ALV with IDA instead of ALV:

  • Handling of data that is changed during display is not supported. Data records that are removed during the display are automatically filled by empty lines.
  • The Data Display is restricted to a maximum of 2 billion cells. All available operations are then executed on the entire data set even if this exceeds the maximum display size.
  • SAP List Viewer with Integrated Data Access supports the use of HANA views using External Views for
    • Attribute Views

  • Aggregation of amount fields with currencies or quantities:

    Values for the aggregation can only be displayed if all field values refer to the same currency or quantity type (e.g. currency euro).

  • Table fields of type STRING should not be used.
  • The ready for input status for cells is not supported in IDA ALV.
  • IDA-ALV programs cannot be scheduled as background jobs or be included in background mangement.
