Summary :
This SAP Note explains the process within the SAP List Viewer (ALV) for managing templates. The note details how to import SAP standard templates using the BCALV_BDS_IMPORT_SAP_TEMPLATE from client 000 into the current client, ensuring the templates are available system-wide after selection in the "Change Layout" dialog. Standard templates, once imported, should not be modified directly to prevent overwriting during updates; instead, creating a standard customer template is advocated, using transaction OAOR and managing via the BCALV_BDS_MAINTENANCE report. Furthermore, the document discusses procedures for updating, integrating personal macros, and managing various types of templates, including layout-specific and cross-user templates.
