FPM List UIBB : Excel spreadsheet download

[former_member452749]

Hi all,

the customer has asked to us a new change on list UIBB.

When the user clicks on standard button "Excel download" , new columns has to be added dinamically with default values.

What's the best way to do this in method "EXPORT_TO_EXCEL" of class "CL_FPM_LIST_UIBB_ASSIST_ATS" in your opinion?

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Dario.

Hi Dario,

in my opinion it's not a good idea to change any standard functionality. What do you think of this solution:

• Assign an application controller to your application (if you haven't already done that)
• In method OVERRIDE_EVENT_xxx check if the event is "FPM_LIST_EXPORT_TO_EXCEL"
• In that case add your additional columns to the list
• Let the standard functionality do the export of the data
• If you want, you can immediately raise a customer specific event to remove the additional columns after the export

Regards,

Karsten
