Dear all,

What is the use of SPOS in sortinfo?

SPOS means sort position or sort sequence. But why is it used and what change does it make to the sorting?

Plz help.

Hi,

If you give the Sort position as 1 for that field, data will be displayed first sorted by that field, then if you give position as 2 for another field, it will be by that field second.. will be like that.

So you are asking the program to display the sorted records as per the order you mention.

I THINK IT IS BECAUSE THE SORT PREFERENCE IF YOU ARE USING TWO OR THREE OR MORE FIELDS FOR SORT.

LIKE SORT ITAB BY MATNR WERKS LGORT .

HERE SPOS = 1 FOR MATNR IF WE WANT THE PREFFERENCE OF MATNR IS GREATER THAN WERKS AND THEN LGORT.

SO SPOS = 2 FOR WERKS 3 FOR LGORT..

It is for the preference of sorting if you give 1 to one field then it will sort by that field
