Hi Rippy,

No, you cann't use FOR ALL ENTRIES with PROVIDE END PROVIDE, coz PROVIDE ENDPROVIDE is looping process, just like SELECT ENDSELECT.

And I don't suggest you to use PROVIDE ENDPROVIDE.

You can use FOR ALL ENTRIES, like here:

*get data from PA0001
SELECT PERNR WERKS
INTO TABLE IT_PA0001
FROM PA0001
WHERE PERNR EQ P_PERNR
      AND BEGDA < SY-DATUM
      AND ENDDA > SY-DATUM.

*get data from PA0002
IF IT_PA0001[] IS NOT INITIAL.
   SELECT PERNR NACHN VORNA
   INTO TABLE IT_PA0002
   FROM PA0002
   FOR ALL ENTRIES IN IT_PA0001
   WHERE PERNR = IT_PA0001-PERNR
        AND BEGDA < SY-DATUM
        AND ENDDA > SY-DATUM.  
ENDIF.
