If you have defined your tales with the OCCURS 0.


data: itab1 like mara occurs 0 with header line,
itab2 like mara occurs 0 with header line.
itab1[] = itab2[].
sort itab2.
delete adjacent duplicates from itab2.

If you have defined tables with the types than:


data: itab1 type standard table of mara ,
itab2 type standard table of mara .
itab1 = itab2.
sort itab2.
delete adjacent duplicates from itab2.

Hi Surya,

itab2[] = itab1[].

Loop at itab1.

move-corresponding itab1 to itab2.

append itab2.

Endloop.

Note : Ensure that two internal tables must contains the same structure.

Delete duplicate values :

DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM ITAB.

Thanks,

Hi,

You have the copy the values of itab1 to itab2 as below :

itab2[] = itab1[]

append lines of itab1 to itab2.

To delete the duplicate entries.

sort itab --> Sort the itab with necessary fields.

delete adjacent duplicates from itab comparing <fieldnames>.

Thanks,

Sriram Ponna.
