Multiple selection of rows in ALV Grid

Question

I need to enable multiple selection of rows in ALV grid (especially REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY). Currently to select more than one row, I'm using Ctrl + select rows. Is there any other way we can use? I'm using ABAP on ECC.

Thanks. It's exactly the information that was missing. Other ALV technologies are REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY, CL_GUI_ALV_GRID, CL_SALV_TABLE, ALV hierarchical-sequential list, ALV tree, ALV Block List, ALV IDA, ALV Web Dynpro, etc. — Sandra Rossi, Jul 30 '22 at 14:54

You need to SEL_MODE parameter during ALV creation.

A Multiple columns, multiple rows with selection buttons.
B Simple selection, listbox, Single row/column
C Multiple rows without buttons
D Multiple rows with buttons and select all ICON

I'm using Reuse_alv_grid_display Fm ..There is also sel_mode parameter.. I tried that .But didn't worked – Akshay vijayan Jul 30 '22 at 06:09
If you want to use selection box, you need to add a field to your structure and setting this field name to box_fieldname param. – mkysoft Aug 04 '22 at 08:45

With REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY, you need to have a dedicated field in the ALV table to contain whether the line is selected or not, and the framework will understand that the ALV must enable the feature "multiple row selection":

TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_alv_line,
         selected TYPE abap_bool,
         carrid   TYPE scarr-carrid,
         carrname TYPE scarr-carrname,
       END OF ty_alv_line.
DATA(layout) = VALUE slis_layout_alv(
    box_fieldname = 'SELECTED' ).
SELECT 'X' AS selected, carrid, carrname FROM scarr INTO TABLE @DATA(scarr_table).
DATA(field_catalog) = VALUE slis_t_fieldcat_alv(
    ( col_pos = 1 fieldname = 'SELECTED' tech = 'X' )
    ( col_pos = 2 fieldname = 'CARRID'   ref_fieldname = 'CARRID'   ref_tabname = 'SCARR' )
    ( col_pos = 3 fieldname = 'CARRNAME' ref_fieldname = 'CARRNAME' ref_tabname = 'SCARR' ) ).
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
  EXPORTING
    is_layout   = layout
    it_fieldcat = field_catalog
  TABLES
    t_outtab    = scarr_table
  EXCEPTIONS
    OTHERS      = 1.

NB: the example doesn't demonstrate the processing of selected lines (could be done by adding both a custom button and a subroutine to handle when it's pressed) ; the syntax above needs at least ABAP 7.40.
