Use the variable SY-TABIX. You can look at the SY-INDEX to find the no. of the loop.

Hi Pratibha,

'SY-TABIX' is the system field that holds the current number of record in internal table which is been processed.

Hope this helps you.

YOU CAN CHECK WITH SY-TABIX.

WHEN YOU DEBUG THE REPORT IN THE DEBUG MORE CLICK ON THE PARTICULAR ITAB IT WILL SHOW YOU THE FIELDS IT CONTAINS AND SY-TABIX VALUE LL BE DISPLAY DOWN ,OTHERWISE YOU CAN DIRECTLY USE IT IN YOUR REPORT.

Hi Prathiba,

SY-TABIX hold the current index number of the record read in the LOOP pass. SY-INDEX has no effect in a LOOP...ENDLOOP statement. Only the system variable SY-TABIX is effected.

Consider this code.(Copy and execute you will come to kenow the role of SY-TABIX).


REPORT zztest.

DATA : it_mara TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF mara WITH HEADER LINE.

START-OF-SELECTION.

  SELECT * FROM mara INTO TABLE it_mara UP TO 25 ROWS.

  WRITE : /3(20) 'MATERIAL',
           25(7) 'SY-TABIX',
           33(8) 'SY-INDEX'.


  SKIP 2.

  LOOP AT it_mara.

    WRITE : /3(20) it_mara-matnr,
             25(7) sy-tabix,
             33(7) sy-index.
  ENDLOOP.

Hi.

you can use SY-TABIX to find the current number of record.

SY-TABIX will give the index of current record being processed.

Hi,

As others have said, sy-tabix gives the current record of the itab when looping through it. Suppose I have an internal table with 10 records. On the first loop, sy-tabix gives you a value of 1 and on the second loop it gives you a value of 2 and so on. In SAP documentation it means:

Short text

Internal table, current line index

Definition

The number of the current line of the last internal table edited (when processing with the ABAP keywords LOOP, READ and APPEND).

Hope this helps.
