I cannot delete multiple entries from table

bhat_vaidya2 — Mon, 03 May 2010 08:21:59 GMT

i am trying to delete multiple entries from table while keeping some data.

for example I have the following table

Plant Item

US101 777

US101 888

US101 999

US101 666

I want to keep the rows where the item is 777 and 888 for plant US101 and keep delete the rest data

I wrote the following code

Delete source_package where Plant = 'US101' and Item NE '777' or '888'.

but all the rows get deleted.

I tried deleting single row and it worked.

Delete source_package where Plant = 'US101' and Item NE '777' .

How can I delete multiple rows.

thanks

Delete source_package where Plant = 'US101' and Item NE '777' and '888'.

(use 'AND' instead of 'OR' for selecting item).

Hi Bhat Vaidya,

Plz refer the following code.. IT will solve ur problem..

REPORT  ZSDN_TEST.
data: BEGIN OF it_data OCCURS 10,
        plant(4),
        item_num TYPE string,
      END OF it_data.
data: str type string.

data: it_final like it_data OCCURS 10 WITH HEADER LINE.

it_data-plant = 'US01'. it_Data-item_num = 777.  append it_data.
it_data-plant = 'US01'. it_Data-item_num = 888.  append it_data.
it_data-plant = 'US01'. it_Data-item_num = 999.  append it_data.
it_data-plant = 'US01'. it_Data-item_num = 666.  append it_data.

delete it_data where plant = 'US01' and item_num ne 777 and item_num ne 888.

LOOP AT it_data.
write:it_data-plant,it_data-item_num.
skip.
ENDLOOP.
