Hi Folks,

I need some help.

My internal table data is -

10381522KEY_NUMBER
10381522KEY_NUMBER
10381522KEY_NUMBER
10381522KEY_NUMBER
10381523MEDIUM
10381523MEDIUM
10381523MEDIUM
10381523MEDIUM
10381524CERTIFICATE_LANGUAG
10381524CERTIFICATE_LANGUAG
10381524CERTIFICATE_LANGUAG
10381524CERTIFICATE_LANGUAG
10381525PED
10381525PED
10381525PED
10381525PED

Now I want to change the order to

10381522KEY_NUMBER
10381523MEDIUM
10381524CERTIFICATE_LANGUAG
10381525PED
10381522KEY_NUMBER
10381523MEDIUM
10381524CERTIFICATE_LANGUAG
10381525PED
10381522KEY_NUMBER
10381523MEDIUM
10381524CERTIFICATE_LANGUAG
10381525PED
10381522KEY_NUMBER
10381523MEDIUM
10381524CERTIFICATE_LANGUAG
10381525PED

Pls let me know how can I achieve this ?

Add another field to your internal table of type integer. Where the text is KEY_NUMBER, give this field a value of 1. Where it is MEDIUM, give your field value 2, and so forth.

Then sort by your new field.

Hi,

If I am not mistaken there is such a field there.

But some how I have the feeling that there must be a field that is NOT in the internal and can be used for sorting (e.g. there are 4 occourances o "KEY_NUMBER"

with KEY_NUMBER in 1038152)

Regards.

Hello Waseem,

    Just curious, do you need all the duplicate records?

I have another column where the relevant data is present so no duplication here.

If this is your only need then do like this.

1. sort internal table using middle field as i see it's already sorted.

2. delete adjacent duplicates from internal table, then you will get internal table with just 4 lines.

3. append this internal table to another table 4 times or to the same table 3 times.

if you have another need then post the actual question, rather than like this. People may be able to help you in better way with the original need.

Hi,

since the second field is repeating ,take another internal table and fill it in order 2,3,4,5.

data :begin of my_table

field_2 type i ,

end of my_table.

data: wa type i.

wa = '2'.

append wa into my_table.

wa = '3'.

append wa into my_table.

wa = '4'.

append wa into my_table.

wa = '5'.

append wa into my_table.

loop at your_table into wa_your.

loop at my_table into wa_table.

read your_table into wa_final with key your_table-field_2 = wa_table-field_2.

append wa_final to lt_final. *this table contains ur sorted record.

endloop.

endloop.



hope it helps.

Hi All,

Actually there is one more field in the table, the data is

A1SequenceA3A4
10381522KEY_NUMBERXyZ
10381522KEY_NUMBER123
10381522KEY_NUMBERqwjh
10381522KEY_NUMBERglmn
10381523MEDIUM 7893

10381525PED 6798
10381525PED quw
10381525PED 39785
10381525PED mxcnb

and the value under sequence is not fixed it is dynamic and can be from 1 to n.

So please let me know in such scenario how to achieve this.

Hello Waseem,

     Create a dummy internal table with the same type as your first internal table.

Now put a loop on the first internal table. IF wa_table1-second_column = 2. Append that work area to the dummy internal table.

Repeat the same procedure for second_column = 3, second_column = 4 and second_column = 5.

You will have the data in the dummy internal table now.

Dnyanesh.

Hi Was,

  1. Sort Your table by sequence or A3.
  2. Then delete the duplicate records comparing sequence or A3.
  3. Then describe the total table line.
  4. Then put the loop for the table, inside that loop use do statement with described line.
  5. Inside the do enddo. append the work area to internal table.

Hope it will meet your requirement .

Regards,

John.

Hi Was,

If you have any other unique column, Then pass all the sequence of data to dynamic internal table. then do like below,

loop at it_seq2 into wa_seq2.

lv_index = sy-tabix.

read table it_seq3 into wa_seq3 index lv_index.

read table it_seq4 as above

read table it_seq5 as above

append wa_final to it_final.

endloop.

Hope it will helpful to you.

Regards,

John.

About the second method, relative order of lines is not well defined when you are sorting only on basis of fld4. Use SORT STABLE instead.
