To edit an input-enabled ALV list, without entering data, you can use the functions for cutting, copying and pasting that are available as standard.
You can only use these functions to their full extent if the ALV list that you want to edit is input-enabled.
Note
You can copy cells that are not input enabled, but you cannot delete or overwrite them.
Select the area of the table that you want to edit.
Depending on the application area, you can select the area in the same way as with ALV list that is not input enabled:
One or – if applicable – several cells
One or several rows
One or several columns
Choose the required function from the extended application toolbar.
