context mapping - check many values to then map a single value

[Former Member]

I am having problems getting the context right for some mapping and i am not sure it can be done successfully....

i have multiple values coming in like this:

i need to check to make sure that the 02 Type Code exists, if it does, i need to map that description across to the field.

if it does not exist i need to default in a value... however it is not proving to be as simple as that!

sounds simple.... but appears to not be the case...

the queue looks like this...

any thoughts on the best way to do this? i am sure a UDF could do it... but i have no idea where to begin as i am only an ABAP beginner... and my Java skills are worse... :o(

use ifWithoutElse - mapWithDefault.

Hi Stefan

i tried to over complicate it!

the simple approach works much better!
