There are several ways to break a loop in ABAP, including:

  1. EXIT statement: The EXIT statement can be used to immediately exit a loop. For example:DO 10 TIMES. ... EXIT. "exit the loop after the first iteration ENDDO.
  2. LEAVE statement: The LEAVE statement can be used to exit a loop and return to the point immediately after the loop. For example:DO 10 TIMES. ... LEAVE. "exit the loop and continue with the next statement after the loop ENDDO.
  3. Checking a condition: You can also exit a loop by checking a condition within the loop. For example:DO 10 TIMES. ... IF condition = true. EXIT. "exit the loop if the condition is met ENDIF. ENDDO.


It's important to use the appropriate method for exiting a loop, as the behavior of the program can be different depending on the method used.

In addition to the methods mentioned above, you can also use the CONTINUE statement to skip the current iteration of a loop and continue with the next iteration. For example:


DO 10 TIMES. ... IF condition = true. CONTINUE. "skip the current iteration and continue with the next iteration ENDIF. ... ENDDO.


By using a combination of these statements, you can control the flow of the loop and break out of it when necessary.
