I found the below steps very useful to sort the table maintenance before display.

  • Go to SE11 and enter table name(eg. ZTEST) ->Display
  • Click UTILITIES menu->Table Maintenance Generator
  • Click on ENVIRONMENT menu->Modification->Maintenance screens->Double click on record in the popup.
  • Write one MODULE SORT_EXTRACT (in PBO of the maintenance view screen) to sort exactly before Table Control loop statement(LOOP AT EXTRACT WITH CONTROL)
  • Write the below piece of code at SORT_EXTRACT to sort Table Maintenance.

    MODULE SORT_EXTRACT OUTPUT.

    DATA : IT_ZTEST LIKE ZTEST OCCURS 1WITHHEADER LINE .

    IF NOT SY-UCOMM = ‘NEWL’.

    IT_ZTEST[] = EXTRACT[].

    SORT IT_ZTEST BY F1 F2 F3.

    EXTRACT[] = IT_ZTEST[].

    ENDIF.

    ENDMODULE.  ” SORT_EXTRACT OUTPUT

    I have “optimized” the MODULE Content, to be able to use it more than once

    CODE:

    CASE objh-objectname.    “global field šŸ™‚

      WHEN ‘<YOUR_MAINTVIEW>’. 

        DATA : IT_ZTEST LIKE <YOUR_MAINTVIEW> OCCURS 1 WITH HEADER LINE .

         […]

    ENDCASE.

    HiĀ Chitra / Leanid,

    I have modified above code for better performance.

      DATA lt_tab_agent TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF <YOUR TABLE NAME>.

  FIELD-SYMBOLS: <lfs_xfrom> TYPE x, "Hexadecimal value of from value
                 <lfs_xto>   TYPE x. "Hexadecimal value of to value

  IF NOT sy-ucomm = 'NEWL'.

    CLEAR lt_tab_agent[].

    LOOP AT extract.

      APPEND INITIAL LINE TO lt_tab_agent ASSIGNING <lfs_xto> CASTING.
      ASSIGN extract TO <lfs_xfrom> CASTING.

      <lfs_xto> = <lfs_xfrom>.

    ENDLOOP.

    SORT lt_tab_agent BY <REQUIRED FIELDS>.

    REFRESH extract.
    LOOP AT lt_tab_agent INTO <YOUR TABLE NAME>.

      APPEND INITIAL LINE TO extract ASSIGNING <lfs_xto> CASTING.
      ASSIGN <YOUR TABLE NAME> TO <lfs_xfrom> CASTING.

      <lfs_xto> = <lfs_xfrom>.

    ENDLOOP.

  ENDIF.

      Hi Helen,

      Try like this.

        DATA: lt_tab_agent TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF zbc_mail_support,
        lrt_ucomm    TYPE RANGE OF sy-ucomm INITIAL SIZE 0,
        lwa_ucomm    LIKE LINE OF lrt_ucomm.

  FIELD-SYMBOLS: <lfs_xfrom> TYPE x, "Hexadecimal value of from value
                 <lfs_xto>   TYPE x. "Hexadecimal value of to value

  REFRESH lrt_ucomm.
  CLEAR lrt_ucomm[].

* Prepare exclude list range for user command
  lwa_ucomm-sign = 'I'.   lwa_ucomm-option = 'EQ'.
  lwa_ucomm-low = 'NEWL'. lwa_ucomm-high = ''.
  APPEND lwa_ucomm TO lrt_ucomm. CLEAR lwa_ucomm.

  lwa_ucomm-sign = 'I'.   lwa_ucomm-option = 'EQ'.
  lwa_ucomm-low = 'DELE'. lwa_ucomm-high = ''.
  APPEND lwa_ucomm TO lrt_ucomm. CLEAR lwa_ucomm.

  lwa_ucomm-sign = 'I'.   lwa_ucomm-option = 'EQ'.
  lwa_ucomm-low = 'KOPE'. lwa_ucomm-high = ''.
  APPEND lwa_ucomm TO lrt_ucomm. CLEAR lwa_ucomm.

  lwa_ucomm-sign = 'I'.   lwa_ucomm-option = 'EQ'.
  lwa_ucomm-low = 'ORGI'. lwa_ucomm-high = ''.
  APPEND lwa_ucomm TO lrt_ucomm. CLEAR lwa_ucomm.

  lwa_ucomm-sign = 'I'.   lwa_ucomm-option = 'EQ'.
  lwa_ucomm-low = 'MKAL'. lwa_ucomm-high = ''.
  APPEND lwa_ucomm TO lrt_ucomm. CLEAR lwa_ucomm.

  lwa_ucomm-sign = 'I'.   lwa_ucomm-option = 'EQ'.
  lwa_ucomm-low = 'MKBL'. lwa_ucomm-high = ''.
  APPEND lwa_ucomm TO lrt_ucomm. CLEAR lwa_ucomm.

  lwa_ucomm-sign = 'I'.   lwa_ucomm-option = 'EQ'.
  lwa_ucomm-low = 'MKLO'. lwa_ucomm-high = ''.
  APPEND lwa_ucomm TO lrt_ucomm. CLEAR lwa_ucomm.

  IF NOT sy-ucomm IN lrt_ucomm.

  <Write your logic Here>

  ENDIF.
