Hi Anil,

Upload the flat file to an internal table and loop the internal table and validate the data.

Loop at itab_file.

Create a perform to validate the Start Date and End Date.

Perform validate_date using date changing flag_err.

Create a perform to extract the records of 2003 and 2004

Perform extract_records.

Endloop.

Form Validat_date using date changing flag_err.

data l_date(8) type c.

move date to l_date.

To check the day of the date

if l_date6(2) >= 1 and l_date6(2) <= 31.

flag_err = ' '.

else.

flag_err = 'X'.

endif.

To check the month of the date

if l_date4(2) >= 1 and l_date4(2) <= 12.

flag_err = ' '.

else.

flag_err = 'X'.

endif.

Endform.

Once after validating the date then check out the year of the date using the perform extract_records.while moving the flate file data into final internal table.

Form extract_records using itab_file.

data l_date(8) type c.

move itab_file-date to l_date.

Check the year of the date

if l_date0(4) = 2003 or l_date0(4) = 2004.

move itab_file to itab_final.

endif.

Endform.

Use the final internal table and pass it to the BDC for processing.
