And what are the significance of each values and at which condition, what value will be fired ?

Hi Sangram,

The SY-SUBRC will contain 0 when the above statement get successfully executed, if the statement is not successfully executed then it contains the value 4.

I think I have answered your doubt.

Thanks and regards
