Sorting Problem After Server Migration

[Former Member]

Dear SAP ABAP/Basis Experts,

I have problem with custom ABAP report. After SAP system migrated to new machine, the display of report is different.

Below is illustration differentiation of report:

Old Machine		New Machine
Before Sorted		Before Sorted
Docno	Item	Docno	Item
10000001	10	10000001	10
	20		20
	30		30
	40		40
SORTING by Docno
After Sorted		After Sorted
Docno	Item	Docno	Item
10000001	10	10000001	40
	20		30
	30		10
	40		20

I know this problem can be solved by changed sorting logic in ABAP program, but i need to know why this problem can happened.

For additional information, OS old machine is Win Server 2003 R2 and new OS machine is Win Server 2008 R2. Both of system is Non-Unicode.

Please help me to investigate this problem.

Thanks & regards,

Husin

Hi Husin,

The problem is not due to change in machine. I hope the sorting command may triggered like that. Kindly add the item also in the sort command. Also refer the STABLE SORT in the following link.
