Offset getting skipped

simantini_sh — Wed, 09 Jun 2021 16:38:32 GMT

Experts,

In my report, after loop at, it goes directly to the move statement and skips the if...endif. How do I resolve that?

Thanks in Advance

DATA: lt_zfi_pr_details TYPE TABLE OF zfi_pr_details,

lw_zfi_pr_details TYPE zfi_pr_details,
lt_input TYPE zmt_hierarchy_profit_center.

DATA: lv_prctr TYPE string,
lv_name TYPE prctr,
lv_zpprctr TYPE string,
lv_pnode TYPE zfi_pprctr.

CLEAR lt_input.
lt_input = input.

LOOP AT lt_input-mt_hierarchy_profit_center-row INTO DATA(lw_input).
IF lv_name IS NOT INITIAL AND lv_pnode IS NOT INITIAL.
lv_name = lv_prctr+3(10).
lv_pnode = lv_zpprctr+3(10).
endif.
MOVE: lw_input-name TO lw_zfi_pr_details-prctr,
lw_input-parent_node TO lw_zfi_pr_details-zpprctr,
lw_input-description TO lw_zfi_pr_details-zpdesc.
APPEND: lw_zfi_pr_details TO lt_zfi_pr_details.
CLEAR: lw_input, lw_zfi_pr_details.
ENDLOOP.

Hi!

Pleas use the CODE-button to format your code, it's much easier to read it like this:

DATA: lt_zfi_pr_details TYPE TABLE OF zfi_pr_details,
      lw_zfi_pr_details TYPE zfi_pr_details,
      lt_input TYPE zmt_hierarchy_profit_center.

DATA: lv_prctr TYPE string,
      lv_name TYPE prctr,
      lv_zpprctr TYPE string,
      lv_pnode TYPE zfi_pprctr.

CLEAR lt_input.
lt_input = input.

LOOP AT lt_input-mt_hierarchy_profit_center-row INTO DATA(lw_input).
  IF lv_name IS NOT INITIAL AND lv_pnode IS NOT INITIAL.
    lv_name = lv_prctr+3(10).
    lv_pnode = lv_zpprctr+3(10).
  endif.
  MOVE: lw_input-name TO lw_zfi_pr_details-prctr,
        lw_input-parent_node TO lw_zfi_pr_details-zpprctr,
        lw_input-description TO lw_zfi_pr_details-zpdesc.
  APPEND: lw_zfi_pr_details TO lt_zfi_pr_details.
  CLEAR: lw_input, lw_zfi_pr_details.
ENDLOOP.

Anyway, if this is your entire code, it looks like your are just declaring the lv_name and lv_pnode a few lines before the LOOP, and never assign them values. So they will be INITIAL in the loop, and then the

IF lv_name IS NOT INITIAL AND lv_pnode IS NOT INITIAL.

will of course not be fulfilled, and the code will continue at MOVE...

Next time use the code button in the sap.com editor. Makes things easier to read.

DATA: lt_zfi_pr_details TYPE TABLE OF zfi_pr_details,
lw_zfi_pr_details TYPE zfi_pr_details,
lt_input TYPE zmt_hierarchy_profit_center.

DATA: lv_prctr TYPE string,
lv_name TYPE prctr,
lv_zpprctr TYPE string,
lv_pnode TYPE zfi_pprctr.

CLEAR lt_input.
lt_input = input.

LOOP AT lt_input-mt_hierarchy_profit_center-row INTO DATA(lw_input).
  IF lv_name IS NOT INITIAL AND lv_pnode IS NOT INITIAL.
    lv_name = lv_prctr+3(10).
    lv_pnode = lv_zpprctr+3(10).
   endif.
   MOVE: lw_input-name TO lw_zfi_pr_details-prctr,
   lw_input-parent_node TO lw_zfi_pr_details-zpprctr,
   lw_input-description TO lw_zfi_pr_details-zpdesc.
   APPEND: lw_zfi_pr_details TO lt_zfi_pr_details.
  CLEAR: lw_input, lw_zfi_pr_details.
ENDLOOP.

If you debug it, you'll easily see what's wrong. The basic reason behind why it jumps over your IF clause is that the condition isn't satisfied.

Either lv_name is initial, or lv_pnode is not initial. Quite simple really. It does exactly what you've written. And has Jörgen pointed out, whose answer I just read - lv_pnode and lv_name aren't assigned a value when the IF clause is reached.

Again DEBUG and it is obvious.

What do you intend to do later with those 2 variables (lv_name and lv_pnode) keep in memory the first or last non initial values or something I didn't think of?
