Hi,

You could try using the DISTINCT keyword or provide the key fields in the selection criteria.

e.g. SELECT DISTINCT <field> FROM <table>.

but this would not the the best approach, rather you select all then sort by a field and use

DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM <table>.

Remember few things while using SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES

1) Check the Driver table[] NOT INITIAL becaue if it is null it will retrieve all the records form the database.

2) SORT ITAB[] by the key word this is because you need to delete the adjacent duplicates next.

3)DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES COMPARING <FIELD> this is needed because the Target table is filled with Distinct records form the database.

Please give me reward point If it is useful

Hi,

To avoid duplicates,u can either use SELECT DISTINCT statements or After selecting the entries, SORT the table and DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES.

select distinct matnr into table dis_matnr from makt.

describe table dis_matnr lines ln.

Or try this.

select count (*) from makt into ln group by matnr having

matnr in ( select distinct matnr from makt ).

Hi Chaaya,

Go through the example mentioned below to get a clear idea.

Check the below program :

data : begin of itab occurs 0,

num(3) type n,

fld(4) type c,

end of itab.

start-of-selection.

itab-num = '100'.

itab-fld = 'aa'.

append itab.

itab-num = '100'.

itab-fld = 'bb'.

append itab.

itab-num = '200'.

itab-fld = 'cc'.

append itab.

itab-num = '200'.

itab-fld = 'dd'.

append itab.

sort itab by num fld.

DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM itab comparing num.

loop at itab.

write:/ itab-num,itab-fld.

endloop.

hi

good

go through this example,and try accordingly.

SELECT DISTINCT AFKO_{AUFNR AFKO}PLNBEZ AFKO_{GAMNG AFKO}GLTRP MARA_{BISMT VBAK}AUDAT VBAP~KWMENG

VBEP~MBDAT

<b>INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF table ITAB</b>

FROM AFKO

INNER JOIN MARA ON MARA_{MATNR = AFKO}PLNBEZ

INNER JOIN VBAP ON VBAP_{MATNR = MARA}MATNR

INNER JOIN VBAK ON VBAK_{VBELN = VBAP}VBELN

INNER JOIN VBEP ON VBEP_{VBELN = VBAP}VBELN

INNER JOIN VBUK ON VBUK_{VBELN = VBAP}VBELN

• WHERE AFKO_{AUFNR IN S_AUFNR and tmp_date = VBAK}AUDAT.

WHERE AFKO_{AUFNR IN S_AUFNR and AFKO}GLTRP = VBAK~AUDAT

AND VBAK_{AUDAT >= AFKO}AUFNR

AND VBUK~GBSTK = 'B'.

<b>* ENDSELECT</b>

<b>delete adjactent duplicates from itab comparing aufnr.</b>

reward point if helpful.
