Presently I am wrtiting it as:

Report ztest message-id zi1 zi2.

where zi1 and zi2 are message classes.But I am receiving an error message Unable to interpret "zi2". Possible causes: Incorrect spelling or comma.'

Kindly help me in this regard.

Thanks and Regards,

Did you read the syntax definition for REPORT? If you had, you would have seen that it doesn't allow more than one message class for a program (or any other ABAP entitiy for that matter.

Read the ABAP help on MESSAGE while you're at it.

If you specify the message class in the MESSAGE statement, you don't need it in the REPORT statement.

We can't use the multiple message id's with REPORT like:extension but we can use multiple message classes directly i hope (not sure ) .

Of course we can. Read the syntax description of MESSAGE and become sure.

Hi Ati,

we too had the same question in our mind when we started learning abap initially but then like the syntax says that you cannot have multiple message id with Report header but you can use different message class at the codding level.

syntax at report header:: REPORT zmessages MESSAGE-ID <message-class>.

and at codding level

MESSAGE ID (id) TYPE (mtype) NUMBER (n).

where id: message class in our case ZEXERCISE1 or ZEXERCISE2mtype

mtype: message type (A,E,I,S,W,X) and

number: message number......

thanks and regards,
