SALV Table 13 – Apply Sorts

Apply Sorts to SALV Table

In the series of the SALV Model Table display in SAP ABAP, today we will see how to apply Sorting to the ALV Grid. You can find all the Previous discussion at Tutorials > SALV Table Display .

Sorts are very important in the reporting. Sorting also provides us the functionality to have the Subtotal on amount / quantity fields. To achieve the sort functions, we have the class CL_SALV_SORTS.

We need to use the method ADD_SORTS of the class CL_SALV_SORTS to apply a filter on a specific column. We need to pass the column name e.g. AUART in the parameter COLUMNNAME. We can also set the of sort direction by setting up the parameter SEQUENCE.

For this example, I have added a sort on the AUART column and the subtotal for the NETWR column.
