hi Aruthra,

u'r required output and the output u r getting seem be the same here ... but to wat i have understood is u'r output should have to be right justified in that case declare the fields where u r are collecting the data as type c and then use right-justified statement...

i.e, Data: v_matnr(20) type c.

write: v_matnr <b>right-justified</b>.

Check out your question again i think there is some minor problem in it.Anyway if you want to display in a appropriate format than try to give the spaces before or after the variable name and than print it.

Thanks

Hi Aruthra,

I suppose your question is how to right-justify / left justify the output.

You can make use of formatting option of write statement.

See this code.

data value type i value 10.

write: value right-justified.

For more details, just refer the SAP Help.
