Hi Sri,

Control breaking statements are use in within loop only except <b>on change of</b> statement , because on change of can be used in select and also other loops like do while, while also.

This control breaking statements used for we can format the output of internal table contents.

Contrlo breaking Statements are :

<b>AT NEW / ENDAT.

AT FIRST / ENDAT.

AT LAST / ENDAT.

ON CHANGE OF / ENDON.

AT END OF / ENDAT.

SUM</b>

Regards,

Vijay

Hi,

Within loop we can use control break statement except ON CHANGE OF / ENDON.

AT NEW / ENDAT.

AT FIRST / ENDAT.

AT LAST / ENDAT.

AT END OF / ENDAT.

SUM

Hi,

Before using control braek statemnets , you SORT the internal table as per the fields we will be using in AT NEW..AT END OF ..

The main purpose of control break statements is to :

To display headings (AT FIRST)

To display SuBHEADING (AT NEW)

To display subtotals (AT END OF )

To get grand total and Footer(AT LAST)

On change of - it can be used in any loops like do, loop at,etc.

Reward with points if helpful.

Hi

All this AT NEW, AT FIRST, AT END OF and AT LAST are called control break statements of Internal tables and are used to calculate the TOTALS based on sertain key fields in that internal table

FIrst to use these statements the ITAB has to be sorted by the key fields on whcih you need the SUM of the fields.

Some time you will get * when mopving data from this int table to other table using these commands

so you have to use

READ TABLE ITAB INDEX SY-TABIX in AT..ENDAT..if you are using other fields between them

DATA: sflight_tab TYPE SORTED TABLE OF sflight

WITH UNIQUE KEY carrid connid fldate,

sflight_wa LIKE LINE OF sflight_tab.

SELECT *

FROM sflight

INTO TABLE sflight_tab.

LOOP AT sflight_tab INTO sflight_wa.

AT NEW connid.

WRITE: / sflight_wa-carrid,

sflight_wa-connid.

ULINE.

ENDAT.

WRITE: / sflight_wa-fldate,

sflight_wa-seatsocc.

AT END OF connid.

SUM.

ULINE.

WRITE: / 'Sum',

sflight_wa-seatsocc UNDER sflight_wa-seatsocc.

SKIP.

ENDAT.

AT END OF carrid.

SUM.

ULINE.

WRITE: / 'Carrier Sum',

sflight_wa-seatsocc UNDER sflight_wa-seatsocc.

Contrlo breaking Statements are :

you run the program in debugguing mode and go with (F5) step by step ,so that you can understand easily.it's a very good one.

<u><b>This is the other example.</b></u>

Control break statements are used to stop the control at a particular point.

1. AT NEW f.

2. AT END OF f.

3. AT FIRST.

4. AT LAST.

Effect

In a LOOP which processes a dataset created with EXTRACT , you can use special control structures for control break processing. All these structures begin with AT and end with ENDAT . The sequence of statements which lies between them is then executed if a control break occurs.

You can use these key words for control break processing with extract datasets only if the active LOOP statement is proceesing an extract dataset.

The control level structure with extract datasets is dynamic. It corresponds exactly to the sort key of the extract dataset, i.e. to the order of fields in the field group HEADER by which the extract dataset was sorted .

At the start of a new control level (i.e. immediately after AT ), the following occurs in the output area of the current LOOP statement:

All default key fields (on the right) are filled with "*" after the current control level key.

All other fields (on the right) are set to their initial values after the current control level key.

Between AT and ENDAT , you can use SUM to insert the appropriate control totals in the number fields (see also ABAP/4 number types ) of the LOOP output area (on the right) after the current control level key. Summing is supported both at the beginning of a control level ( AT FIRST , AT NEW f ) and also the end of a control level ( AT END OF f , AT LAST ).

At the end of the control level processing (i.e. after ENDAT ), the old contents of the LOOP output area are restored.

Notes

When calculating totals, you must ensure that the totals are inserted into the same sub-fields of the LOOP output area as those where the single values otherwise occur. If there is an overflow, processing terminates with a runtime error.

If an internal table is processed only in a restricted form (using the additions FROM , TO and/or WHERE with the LOOP statement), you should not use the control structures for control level processing because the interaction of a restricted LOOP with the AT statement is currenly not properly defined.

With LOOP s on extracts, there are also special control break control structures you can use.

Note

Runtime errors

SUM_OVERFLOW : Overflow when calculating totals with SUM .

Variant 1

AT NEW f.

Variant 2

AT END OF f.

Effect

f is a sub-field of an internal table processed with LOOP . The sequence of statements which follow it is executed if the sub-field f or a sub-field in the current LOOP line defined (on the left) before f has a differnt value than in the preceding ( AT NEW ) or subsequent ( AT END OF ) table line.

Example

DATA: BEGIN OF COMPANIES OCCURS 20,

NAME(30),

PRODUCT(20),

SALES TYPE I,

END OF COMPANIES.

...

LOOP AT COMPANIES.

AT NEW NAME.

NEW-PAGE.

WRITE / COMPANIES-NAME.

ENDAT.

WRITE: / COMPANIES-PRODUCT, COMPANIES-SALES.

AT END OF NAME.

SUM.

WRITE: / COMPANIES-NAME, COMPANIES-SALES.

ENDAT.

ENDLOOP.

The AT statements refer to the field COMPANIES-NAME .

Notes

If a control break criterion is not known until runtime, you can use AT NEW (name) or AT END OF (name) to specify it dynamically as the contents of the field name . If name is blank at runtime, the control break criterion is ignored and the sequence of statements is not executed. If name contains an invalid component name, a runtime error occurs.

By defining an offset and/or length, you can further restrict control break criteria - regardless of whether they are specified statically or dynamically.

A field symbol pointing to the LOOP output area can also be used as a dynamic control break criterion. If the field symbol does not point to the LOOP output area, a runtime error occurs.

Note

Runtime errors

AT_BAD_PARTIAL_FIELD_ACCESS : Invalid sub-field access when dynamically specifying the control break criterion.

AT_ITAB_FIELD_INVALID : When dynamically specifying the control break criterion via a field symbol, the field symbol does not point to the LOOP output area.

ITAB_ILLEGAL_COMPONENT : When dynamically specifying the control break criterion via (name) the field name does not contain a valid sub-field name.

Variant 3

AT FIRST.

Variant 4

AT LAST.

Effect

Executes the appropriate sequence of statements once during the first ( AT FIRST ) or last ( AT LAST ) loop pass.

Example

DATA: BEGIN OF COMPANIES OCCURS 20,

NAME(30),

PRODUCT(20),

SALES TYPE I,

END OF COMPANIES.

...

LOOP AT COMPANIES.

AT FIRST.

SUM.

WRITE: 'Sum of all SALES:',

55 COMPANIES-SALES.

ENDAT.

WRITE: / COMPANIES-NAME, COMPANIES-PRODUCT,

55 COMPANIES-SALES.

ENDLOOP.
