52 Weeks Movement type routine help

Question

Hello Friends
I have a requirement that i need to get from the Material Segment table the movement type 551-711 for 52 weeks. in accordance with plant,stor_loc and material into an ODS A. This ODS A will have plant,material,stor_loc and a field say 'balance'.This balance should have the diffrence of 551-711 in it.i need to know where and what codes should i write.Ill have to write a code in Start Routine to only get the 551 and 711 movement types for 52 weeks and probably then in Update Rule Routine of object 'balance' ill have to my calculation.If this is not the right way please direct to what it should be and also if you could please provide me the codes as i have not a had a lot of experience with routines and coding.
Thank you once again for all your help in advance.

HI Ronit,
As per understanding of your requirement, you only need the data for the specific movement types and you want the report for the difference of these movement types.
First selcting the data can be done at info package level or transfer rules or the update rules or the start routine. i would suggest the selection at infopackage level.
i assume that the key figure balance is mapped directly from the source rather than a calculated one.
if this is the case, then write a simple code in the trasfer rules. first in the movement type hardcode the selection to "551" and "711" at transfer rule level or the info package level.
secondly for the balance key figure use this code at the transfer rule level
if
    movement type = "551".
    result = TRAN_STRUCTURE-balance.
    elseif movement type = "711".
    result = -1 * TRAN_STRUCTURE-balance.
endif.
Finally use the summation function at the update rule level ( i suppose you dont have the movement type field in the info provider ODS)
If the movement type field is in the info provider ODS or if the "balance" is a claculated field or  the data at the source is not maintained at weekly level and you are trying to sum it in the info provider level. then you cannot achieve this at any level i.e. for example if you use the coding to calcualte at start routine then as it is just packet based and you can get the difference of data contained in the data packet and not the whole data.
this can be achieved only by a loopback method of repopulating the data once again back into ODS from the same ODS.
My reply might be a solution for or might be too confusing. please read through it and let me know if its of any help. if this doesnot help you. please elaborate your question.
