Sample ABAP Code for Coloring An Entire Row in ALV Grid.
Coloring a row is a bit complicated. To enable row coloring, you should add an additional field to your list data table ( internal table ). It should be of character type and length at least 4. This field will contain the color code for the row. So, let’s modify declaration of our list data table “t_ekko”.
Adding the field that will contain row color data:
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_ekko,
ebeln TYPE ekpo-ebeln,
ebelp TYPE ekpo-ebelp,
statu TYPE ekpo-statu,
aedat TYPE ekpo-aedat,
matnr TYPE ekpo-matnr,
menge TYPE ekpo-menge,
meins TYPE ekpo-meins,
netpr TYPE ekpo-netpr,
peinh TYPE ekpo-peinh,
line_color(4) type c, "Used to store row color attributes
END OF t_ekko.
You should fill the color code to this field.
But how will ALV Grid know that you have loaded the color data
for the row to this field. So, you make it know this by passing
the name of the field containing color codes to the field
“INFO_FIELDNAME” of the layout structure.
Example -
gd_layout-info_fieldname = 'LINE_COLOR'.
