Hi Raja,

I am getting the foll. error: The statement "THEN" is not expected. A correct similar statement is WHEN.

REPORT ZTEST.

data: qtr type n.

data: a(2) type n.

if a = '01'

or a = '02'.

then

qtr = 1.

elseif a = '04'

then

qtr = 2.

end if.

then is not a key word, it is the place where you can write code for the logic if a = '01' or a = '02'

for e.g

REPORT ZTEST.

data: qtr type n.

data: a(2) type n.

if a = '01'

or a = '02'.

write:/ 'a is either 01 or 02' .

qtr = 1.

elseif a = '04'

write:/ 'a is 04' .

qtr = 2.

end if.
