How to collapse data in internal table?

[Former Member]

Hi everyone,

I have an internal table which has 5 columns as follows:

123 bbb ccc 12 +

123 ccc bbb 3 +

123 bbb ccc 34 -

123 ccc bbb 34 +

223 ccc bbb 12 +

the above table needs to be collpased as follows, with commonfields compared in first 3 columns grouping the rows with all 3 values same and 4th column data added or subtracted depending on the sign in 5th column:

123 bbb ccc -22 ->(grouping 1st and 3rd row)

123 ccc bbb 37 ->(grouping 2nd and 4th row)

223 ccc bbb 12 -> (only 5th row.no grouping since it is a unique row)

Could you please suggest how I can do this?

thanks in advance.

Welcome to SCN.

Am afraid this is a basic question. Please search in SCN before posting.

use sort...

then collect. instead of append..

then use condition break statements to sum up only the last variables

Thanks and regards

Use colect with condition.
