ABAP code to Print abap web dynpro table
Once you have created a basic table on your web dynpro for ABAP application your users might want to be able to print this table, and not just the records currently displayed but all the records in the table.
With the ABAP code below this becomes a fairly simply process! This will print the table to the users SAP printer or any printer setup in SAP.
An alternative method would be to call a SAP BSP and display the data using HTML statements, this would allow the user to print the information
via there web browser or copy it into an external application such as excel.
Step 1 - Create Print button within your abap web dynpro application
First of all add a print button to you web dynpro for ABAP application and assign an Action to it.
Step 2 - Retrieve data displayed to user within ABAP web dynpro table
In-order to retreive the data displayed to a user within an abap web dypro table you you need to either follow the steps within
the Read ABAP Web Dynpro Table section, which shows you how to get the data contained within
an wdp table context, or simply re-retrieve the data from the SAP database using standard ABAP code such as:
* Retrieve new data
select *
from scarr
into table it_scarr
where CARRID = 'AA' .
Step 3 - Insert the Print code
The next step is to add the ABAP code which takes the internal table of data and sends it to the printer. It does this by using the print functionality
of the object ALV method, so builds an ALV grid based on your internal table and then sends this to your SAP printer. For the example below
the internal table containing the data is IT_SCARR, this gets assigned to it_datatab which in turn get assign to the field symbol <tab>.
This means that it does not matter what structure your data table has, the code will build the printout appropriately. Therefore if you are using a data
table with a differnet name and/or structure all you need to do is replace IT_SCARR with the name of your declared itab.
* Print web dynpro table using ALV object print functionality

* assign table containing data to it_datatab
get reference of it_scarr into it_datatab.
