Control Statements in ABAP

 To execute different program parts in connection with certain conditions or to combine recurring statement sequences as  loops, you can use standard keywords like IF, CASE, DO, and WHILE in the flow control of a program.

IF condition.

......

ELSE.

......

ENDIF.
IF condition-1.

......

ELSEIF condition-2.

 WHEN value-1.

 .....

 WHEN value-2.
 
 .....

 WHEN value-3.

 .....

 WHEN OTHERS.

ENDCASE.
DO n TIMES.

  statement_block.

ENDDO.
WHILE log_exp.

   statement_block.

ENDWHILE.

Statements which can be used optionally in loops...

  1. EXIT.                to come out of a loop suddenly
  2. CONTINUE.   to start the next iteration from middle of the loop
  3. CHECK.           to start the next iteration when condition fails.

In the world of Mathematics, a domain is defined as the set of input values that are valid for a given function. The same holds true for domains in ABAP. To understand this, let us first see what is the role of domains in ABAP data dictionary. Domains -> Data Elements -> (Structures, DB tables, program references etc.)
