Hello,

If you create 2 files, you have to define a field in both files, to link header with item data. For example, create a field 'GROUPNUMBER' in both, which contains a unique number for each header - item combination.

LSMW will than handle the linking of header - item data automatically.

Kind Regards,

Bart

In your header and item internal tables, take fist field as count (length based on records).

Take header details and item details in same flat file but give this count field as first field in flat file.

Example

Count field1 field2.....

00001 header details

00001 item details1

00001 item details2

00002 header details

00002 item details1

00002 item details2

Reward if it dose.

Thanks

hi sudhir ,

no need of creating 2 file.just create 2 structure

1 for header and 2 for item.

while filed mapping just add identifier field in the start

and assign idetifier = h

idetifier = i.

H AGENCY1 1000 000 10000

I MODULE 10 1000

if any problem plz let me know
