Hi expert ,

I am working for a upgrade project fron 4.7 to ECC. We need to replace the obsolete statement STOP. Which is the best statement to replace STOP(RETURN or EXIT)

Thanks and Regards

HI STOP leaves the current event block and trigger END-OF-SELECTION.

SAP recommend using EXIT only within loops (see EXIT - loops ). Instead, use RETURN to leave processing blocks.

So RETURN seems to be better option.

hi,

you can use leave to list-processing if you are displaying any error message in end-of-selection so that you can return back to the selection screen

Hi,

It is recommended to use RETURN instead of EXIT.

Exit is considered best incase of loop processing, But to terminate the event block, Pls use RETURN.
