Is there an easy way of retrieving the ALV data that is displayed when there are also filters used on that ALV?
The ALV used is an object of CL_GUI_ALV_GRID. When showing it to the user, there is a filter placed on it by default. The user also has a button that processes the data in the ALV. How can I make sure the process only works with the data that is displayed, even if the user places his own filters on the ALV?
e.g: An ALV gets created from an itab that has 10 rows, but because there is also a filter passed on the ALV, only 8 rows are showing. When pressing a button, I only want to work with the 8 rows currently showing to the user.
I have tried finding a function module for this purpose but I can only find a FM which works with the selected rows in an ALV.
EDIT: Further, there is a method called get_filtered_entries, but it only retrieves those entries that are NOT displayed. Using this will be quite time-consuming to make the translation to displayed entries. get_filtered_entries
Thanks in advance.
