Hi Jai,

there are several possible ways to create the necessary code. It depends also on the structure of your internal table and if there is a general rule.

Here the symbolic code as my personal christamas present for you.


loop at itab assigning <sourceval>.
  case <sourceval>-segment.
    when 'E4SEG
      or 'E6SEG
      or 'E8SEG.
    lv_tabix = sy-tabix - 2.
    read table itab assigning <target> index lv_tabix.
    <target>-value = <sourceval>-value.
    clear <sourceval>-value.
  endcase.
endloop.

Regards,

Clemens
