SUBTRACT-CORRESPONDING is a keyword used in SAP ABAP programming.This tutorial covers its introduction & syntax details.
SUBTRACT-CORRESPONDING
Basic form
SUBTRACT-CORRESPONDING rec1 FROM rec2.
Effect
Interprets
rec1 and rec2 as field strings. If, for example, rec1 and rec2 are
tables, executes the statement for their header lines.
Searches
for all sub-fields which occur both in rec1 and rec2 and then
generates, for all relevant field pairs corresponding to the component
fields ni , statements of the form
SUBTRACT rec1-ni FROM rec2-ni.
The other fields remain unchanged.
With complex structures, the full names of the field pairs must be identical.
Example
DATA: BEGIN OF PERSON,
NAME(20) VALUE 'Paul',
MONEY TYPE I VALUE 5000,
END OF PERSON,
BEGIN OF PURCHASES OCCURS 10,
PRODUCT(10),
MONEY TYPE I,
END OF PURCHASES.
PURCHASES-PRODUCT = 'Table'.
PURCHASES-MONEY = 100.
APPEND PURCHASES.
PURCHASES-PRODUCT = 'Chair'.
PURCHASES-MONEY = 70.
APPEND PURCHASES.
LOOP AT PURCHASES.
SUBTRACT-CORRESPONDING PURCHASES FROM PERSON.
ENDLOOP.
The value of PERSON-MONEY is now 4830. The above SUBTRACT-CORRESPONDING statement (executed twice here) is equivalent to:
SUBTRACT PURCHASES-MONEY FROM PERSON-MONEY.
Note
All
fields of the same name are subtracted, whether they are numeric or
not. Here, the conversions performed are the same as with SUBTRACT and
the same runtime errors can occur.
