Hello,

While debugging the F110 transaction I came across a Loop statement without any addition but I don't understand how this is working !

I need to know what is the internal table of the loop and how the data is updated here (Especially the REGUP structure).

Check the documentation for Extracts Processing (Obsolete Extracts).

I last encountered these in a Z program in 2002. And that was very old. Just a bit of archeology.

  • The INSERT statement defines what the extract holds.
  • The EXTRACT statement fills the extract with data.
  • The LOOP statement processes it.

It was quite slow, since the extract was stored on disk during use, rather than in memory.

You need to see how the EXTRACT statements are filled in the code.
