Re: Multiple Conditions on a DOW loop

Here is the exact code.

dow shopdays(DDYIndex) <> '' and shopdays(DDYIndex) <> 'A';
Running_Date = Running_Date + %Days(1);
if Running_Year <> %subdt(Running_Date:*YEARS);
SFC_Load_Shop_Calendar(calendar:Facility:workcenter:Running_Year);
Running_Year = %subdt(Running_Date:*YEARS);
endif;
Exec SQL
Set :DDYIndex = DayOfYear(:Running_Date);
enddo;

It jumps in and increases Running_Date by a day when shopdays(DDYIndex) =
'A'.

Re: Multiple Conditions on a DOW loop






You can absolutely use multiple conditions on a DOW loop. Are you sure
your program matches the pseudo logic you included?

Multiple Conditions on a DOW loop






Ok Group. I have run into an interesting problem...

I have this loop structure...

dow myVariable <> '' and myVariable <> 'A';
// I do some stuff
// At some point myVariable could be set to '' or A or another value
// at which point we want to run the loop again.

enddo;

But when myVariable = 'A' the loop runs anyway.

Can we not put multiple conditions on a DOW loop? Is my brain not reading


my logic correctly today?
