Sort Statement

Former Member — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 01:33:28 GMT

Hi,

In my custom program, I have issued a SORT command on my internal table.

SORT it_itab by hkont prctr gsber waers.

After the SORT command, the relative sequence of entries in the internal table having the same set of values for the fields mentioned in the SORT command, is different in ECC 6.0 when compared with 4.6C results.

Has anybody faced a similar situation?

Is there a functionality difference in SORT in ECC 6.0?

Any inputs on this will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Binu

Hi Binu,

There is difference for SORTing in ECC6.0 and 4.6C. It may be due to difference in Key field criteria.

Hi,

For sort statement, there is no difference between 4.6C and ECC6.0.

You can debug your program, before and after sorting the internal table, you can check whether the internal table changes the sequence.

Or you can put your code here to make us more clear what happened.

Thanks and regards,
