Problem when using SUM

Former Member — Wed, 11 Aug 2004 05:48:00 GMT

I have this senario:


report zfappm513 line-size  900     
line-count 58 
no standard page heading.

loop at itab.
  at new name.
    write:/ itab-name.
  endat.
  at end of name.
    sum.
    write:/ itab-total.
  endat.
  at last.
    sum.
    write:/ itab-total.
  endat.
endloop.

The problem occurs whenever I had a page break, the value of itab-total inside the at end will reflect the grand total.

The grand total should only display when it reaches the at last. Please advise. Thanks

I tested the same program , interestingly I did not find this issue.

When I remove the line-count, everything is normal. Is that a bug??

Hi Jefery,

i think, the reason is your line-size , which is > 255.

plz -> F1 on report / LINE-SIZE col

Thanks for your help, Andreas.

I've tried to reduce the line-size to less than 255 but the problems still occur.

Hello Jefery,

If you want the grand total displayed only on the last page, to not write itab-total when you are at end of name.
