Case statement

suryakumar1223 — Mon, 06 Feb 2023 17:30:23 GMT

Hello,

For the case statement i need two true cases.

Ex:

CASE lv_tcode.

When 'VF31'

FLAG_MAIL = ' '

WHEN 'VF02'

FLAG_MAIL = ' '

WHEN 'ZDRT'

FLAG_MAIL = 'X'

FOR ZDPT ALSO I NEED FLAG MAIL AS 'X'.SO I WROTE AS

WHEN 'ZDPT'

FLAG_MAIL = 'X'.

This wasn't working.

Also I tried, WHEN 'ZDRT' OR 'ZDPT'

FLAG_MAIL = 'X'.

This was also not working ..pls help me on this

CASE is as simple as IF.

You can find yourself the reason why "it doesn't work" (no idea what you mean), by using the debugger.

flag_mail = SWITCH #( lv_tcode WHEN 'ZDRT' OR 'ZDPT' THEN abap_true ).

Could you elaborate on 'This wasn't working.'

Also read CASE statement
Check carefully for lowercase/uppercase or any typo in code
How waw the 'local tcode' variable filled, did you use cl_dynpro=>get_current_transaction( ) which is required for variant/parameter transactions;
