An ABAP Advanced List (ALV) report provides a standardized interface for displaying list reports. This document discusses different types of ALV reports, including using function modules and controls to display list and grid reports. It also provides examples of control break reports with one and two levels, using a field catalog to customize column properties, adding a derived column, and using a SELECT statement with an INNER JOIN.
