Formatting Column Contents

Note

Fields DECIMALS_O , EDIT_MASK , EXPONENT , NO_SIGN and ROUND correspond to WRITE additions DECIMALS , USING EDIT MASK , EXPONENT , NO-SIGN and ROUND . For information on combining these fields with fields CURRENCY and QUANTITY (for WRITE: UNIT ), see the F1 help for the WRITE edit option.

Field name	Comp. type	Dtype(length)	Value range
	Use
DECIMALS_O	LVC_DECMLS	Char(6)	initial, natural number
	If a field has no currency, then you can use this field to determine the number of decimal places to be displayed. This setting is kept even if you afterwards assign a currency field to this field or assign a currency to the CURRENCY field of the field catalog.
DECMFIELD	LVC_DFNAME	Char(30)	SPACE, field name of output table
	Defining the digits after the comma on a row-by-row basis. You can use an additional field in the output table to determine how many digits are to be displayed after the comma in each row.
EDIT_MASK	LVC_EDTMSK	Char(60)	SPACE, conv (conversion exit)
	If you set a conversion exit (for example, conv = ' ==ALPHA ' for function module CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT ), you enforce output conversion for the associated output field. (See also F1 help for WRITE edit option USING EDIT MASK) . See also: Using the Conversion Exit
EXPONENT	LVC_EXPONT	Char(3)	initial, integer
	Determines a fixed exponent for the field. The field must be of internal type F. (See also F1 help for WRITE edit option EXPONENT ).
ICON	LVC_ICON	Char(1)	SPACE, 'X'
	If this field is set, the column contents of the output table are output as an icon. The column contents must consist of valid icon strings ( @xx@ or @xx\Q <Quickinfo> @ ). You should consider the problem of printing icons.
JUST	LVC_JUST	Char(1)	SPACE, 'R', 'L','C'
	Relevant only to fields of data type CHAR or NUMC . Justifications: 'R': right justified 'L': left justified 'C': centered How the column header is justified, depends on how the column contents are justified. You cannot justify the column header separately.
LZERO	LVC_LZERO	Char(1)	SPACE, 'X'
	Relevant only to fields of data type NUMC . In the default setting, the ALV Grid Control displays these fields right justified without leading zeros. If you set LZERO , leading zeros are displayed.
NO_SIGN	LVC_NOSIGN	Char(1)	SPACE, 'X'
	Relevant only to value fields. If you set NO-SIGN , values are displayed without signs (see also F1 help for the WRITE edit options).
NO_ZERO	LVC_NOZERO	Char(1)	SPACE, 'X'
	If NO_ZERO is set, no zeros are displayed for initial value fields. The cell remains empty.
ROUND	LVC_ROUND	Char(10)	initial, natural number
	Displaying a value of type P scaled by the power of ten. For positive ROUND values, the ALV Grid Control moves the comma to the left; otherwise, it moves the comma to the right. (See also F1 help for the WRITE edit options)
ROUNDFIELD	LVC_RNDFN	Char(30)
	Defining scaled output on a row-by-row-basis. You can use an additional field in the output table to determine how the relevant field is scaled in each row.
SYMBOL	LVC_SYMBOL	Char(1)	SPACE, 'X'
	If this field is set, the column contents are displayed as a symbol. The column contents of the internal table must consist of valid symbol signs. The caller should consider the problem of printing symbols. (It is usually possible to print symbols, but they may not be output correctly depending on the printer configuration).
