Lets make the ALV interactive by adding the Hotspot aka Hyperlink into the ALV generated by SALV IDA by using the DISPLAY_OPTIONS for column.

SALV IDA framework also provides the flexibility to change Column settings. Lets check how to change to change the column settings in SALV IDA.

Lets check out how we can add the additional fields on the ALV output and also populate the value for those added columns using Calculated fields.

Lets check more SALV IDA on how to send the selection conditions so we can restrict the data access based on user inputs.

With ABAP 740, we have a new way using Integrated Data Access to generate the ALV and this is very prominent when using SAP HANA.

CLASS_CONSTRUCTOR would be called automatically whenever the class would be accessed – either by creation of an instance or accessing any component. But seems like it is changed with ABAP 740.
