hello... i think you should create a <h3>custom matchcode</h3> for the table SKA1 with an Exit Function that allows you to filter 5* accounts. This way it would works in every report or program that you need to do the same!
Enter SE11 and Create Z_SAKNR Matchcode for the table SKA1 and copy the function F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE to ZFI_SHLP_EXIT_SAKNR and assign it to the matchcode
Enter SE37 and edit ZFI_SHLP_EXIT_SAKNR exit function, in the source code find:
check callcontrol-step = 'DISP'.
and code something like this:
data: listfields like dfies occurs 0 with header line.
listfields[] = shlp-fielddescr.
refresh record_tab.
select * into table LT_SKA1
from SKA1
where SAKNR LIKE '5%'
LOOP AT LT_SKA1
          READ TABLE listfields WITH KEY fieldname = 'SAKNR'.
          record_tab+listfields-offset(listfields-leng) =LT_SKA1-SAKNR.
         APPEND record_tab.
ENDLOOP.
That way youfill your Matchcode only with 5* G/L Accounts and it is rehusable in any other program or report that you need to do the same...
