data : lv_value1 type i,

lv_value2 type i.

lv_value1 = v_low + v_high.

lv_value2 = v_low + v_med.

if lv_value1 < lv_value2.

proceed.

else.

<b>stop.</b> " this will take you out or program

endif.

 if V_low+v_high < v_low+v_med.
  message e001(00) with 'Hey, you can't proceed'.
 else.
  write:/ 'You can proceed'.
 endif.

Hi Rajeev,

You can't use expressions in the conditions for IF...ENDIF. It only allows values to compare rather than expressions, so you need to get the value of expression and the have condition among values.

DATA:

VALUE1 TYPE I,

VALUE2 TYPE I.

VALUE1 = V_LOW + V_HIGH.

VALUE2 = V_LOW + V_MED.

write " we can proceed".

IF VALUE1 < VALUE2.

write " we can not proceed".

ELSE.

ENDIF.

In your case as you are adding V_LOW to both left hand and right hand, so you can this and write a simple conidtion as

IF V_HIGH < V_MED.

write " we can proceed".

ELSE.

write " we can not proceed".

ENDIF.

Thanks,
