UPDATE outside the Loop ......

[Former Member]

Hi ,

Currently in my code i have a update statement inside the loop. i want to move it out side. My criteria is to modify any number of records. I don't this MODIFY statement will be correct.

 
 LOOP AT t_zvei.

 UPDATE zxxvei SET
                                 ardoc       =  t_zvei-ardoc
                      where    
                               mjahr         =  t_zvei-mjahr
                               monat        =  t_zvei-monat.


 if sy-subrc eq 0.
   
       commit work.

endloop. 

endloop.

the problem with MODIFY is that it gives sy-subrc eq 0 only if all records are modified . But i want to commit even if any record is changed.

I want to change only few columns comparing the key ffileds.

Please help

Hi, <li> Try like below which suggests that bring database table data into internal table and make changes to that internal table and update the same to the database.

REPORT ztest.
DATA: BEGIN OF it_data OCCURS 0,
        bukrs TYPE t001-bukrs,
        rcomp TYPE t001-rcomp,
      END OF it_data.
DATA:it_t001 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t001 WITH HEADER LINE.

START-OF-SELECTION.
  "Select required records from database table
  SELECT * FROM t001 INTO TABLE it_t001.
  SORT it_t001."It is sorted based on key fields.

  "Get your own data
  "Loop your internal table which has data to update database table.
  LOOP AT it_data.
    READ TABLE it_t001 WITH KEY bukrs = it_data-bukrs.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      it_t001-rcomp = 'XYZ Pte ltd'.
      MODIFY it_t001 INDEX sy-tabix TRANSPORTING rcomp.
      CLEAR it_t001.
    ENDIF.
  ENDLOOP.
  "Modify database table at a time using internal table
  MODIFY t001 FROM TABLE it_t001.
  IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    WRITE 'All lines were inserted or changed.'.
  ELSE.
    WRITE 'At least one line could not be processed'.
  ENDIF.

Thanks Venkat.O

Venkat,

No where it_data is getting filled before the loop.So,do you think that it will loop the it_data internal table even when there is no data in it ?

No friends ... I have not all data for the DB table to be modified. I have only few fields that needs to be modified depending upon some criteria.
