hi,

pl go through

SY-REPID:

Name of the current ABAP program. For externally-called procedures, it is the name of the main program of the procedure. If you pass SY-REPID as an actual parameter to an external procedure, the formal parameter does not contain the name of the caller, but that of the main program of the procedure. To avoid this, assign SY-REPID to an auxiliary variable and use that in the call, or use the system field SY-CPROG.

SY-CPROG:

The name of the calling program in an external routine, otherwise the name of the current program.

For more information, please check this links.

2..............

SY-REPID : It is name of the current program

SY-CPROG : Name of the calling program. It would be same as SY-REPID if it is the current program.

But for example check the below.

REPORT ZREP.

start-of-selection.

write : / sy-repid, sy-cprog.

submit zrep1 and return.

REport zrep1.

start-of-selection.

write : / sy-repid, sy-cprog.

The output would be.

zrep zrep

zrep1 zrep

pls rewad if it helpful

Thanks

I think a more appropriate example is:

*----

REPORT ZCHKSYREPID.

break-point.

start-of-selection.

write : / sy-repid, sy-cprog.

submit ZCHKSYREPID2 and return.

PERFORM r2 in program ZCHKSYREPID2.

*----

REPORT ZCHKSYREPID2.

start-of-selection.

write : / sy-repid, sy-cprog.

------ Form r2 -

form r2 .

write : / sy-repid, sy-cprog.

endform. " r2
