    The Smartform that is created in the Development may not have the same name in the Production server. So it is always advised to use the Function Module SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME to get the Function Module name by passing the Smartform name.
    DATA: fm_name TYPE rs38l_fnam.
     
    CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
      EXPORTING
        formname           = 'ZSMARTFORM'
      IMPORTING
        fm_name            = fm_name
      EXCEPTIONS
        no_form            = 1
        no_function_module = 2
        OTHERS             = 3.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
      MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
      WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
    ENDIF.
     
    CALL FUNCTION fm_name
     EXCEPTIONS
        formatting_error = 1
        internal_error   = 2
        send_error       = 3
        user_canceled    = 4
        OTHERS           = 5.

    Set the OUTPUT OPTIONS paramter TDDEST to your printer name.
    Set the CONTROL PARAMETERS and control parameters as shown below,

    control-preview = 'X'.
    control-no_open = 'X'.
    control-no_close = 'X'.
    control-no_dialog = 'X'.

    ENDIF.
    Screen Painter
    To use ALV in dynpro, create only a container in the dynpro.
    In ABAP code (PBO/PAI), you have to use SALV class to create the list in the container of dynpro.
    It is much more effective than to use the type Pool SLIS and function REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY
    For example, you can then properly connect the screens with levels of different details or make fields of the list seizable by the users.
