Why don't you give this a try yourself and if you have problems, come back to the forum with the code you wrote?

Hi,

It is NOT ADVISABLE to use join on transaction data tables. So what you can do is, select the data as below:

1) Select <b>FIEDS</b> from VBAK where KUNNR (Sold To Party), KNKLI (Ship To Party), AUART (Order Type) from Selection Screen.

2) Select <b>FIELDS</b> from VBAP for all entries in VBAK comparing VBELN and MATNR, PSTYV (Item Category, if the reference here is Sales Item Category) from Selection Screen.

3) Select <b>FIELDS</b> from VBKD for all entries in VBAP comparing VBELN and POSNR and PO Number and Date from Selection Screen

4) Remove the un necessary records from VBAP & VBAK based on VBELN and POSNR found from VBKD.

5) Select <b>FIELDS</b> from VBUP for all entries in VBAP comparing VBELN, POSNR

6) Select <b>FIELDS</b> from VAPMA for all entries in VBAP comparing VBELN, POSNR.

Now start processing by giving first loop on VBAK and then sebsequent loops inside based on VBELN and POSNR (for item level data).

Thats it..

Hope this solves your problem. If not, write it back.

When you do a join, you put all selected fileds into one internal table. So instead of it_vbak and the others, you should have some other internal table (say IT_ALL) htat has all of the fields you will select.

Very good first attempt at it though.

Rather than selecting into table ITAB, try selecting into corresponding fileds of table itab. This should at least get you past this dump.
