How to add the condition in if statement

Hi,

Below is the esisting code

IF AK402AA19 = 'MAXI '
& AK402AA24 = 'Y'
| (AK402AA19 = 'MINIE'
| AK402AA19 = 'MINIC'
| AK402AA19 = 'MINIL')
& AK402AA23 = 'Y'
THEN
G387EA01 = 3716;
END;

Here if AK402aa19 is MAXI, AK402aa24 is 'Y', Ak402AAA23 is 'y' means, 3716 will be assigned.

Now, i need to add more checking, that ak4022aa20 >=892.
IF AK402AA19 = 'MAXI '
& AK402AA24 = 'Y'
| (AK402AA19 = 'MINIE'
| AK402AA19 = 'MINIC'
| AK402AA19 = 'MINIL')
& AK402AA23 = 'Y'
&Ak4022A20 >=892
THEN
G387EA01 = 3716;
END;

Here if AK402aa19 is MAXI, AK402aa24 is 'Y', Ak402AAA23 is 'y' and Ak402AA20 is 891 means, it should not assign 3716. But my code assigns the value 3716.

Help me how to add the condition AK402AA >=892

...
use the code tag to make Your code more readable
for complex logic expressions in the if
it would be better to use parenthesis !
if You had used them the operators precedences would have been more clear

the parenthese were there

not using the code tag didn' t make them stick out !!

I keep hitting the enter key too early..

I see You are using parenthesis in the most unclear way...

expression without parenthesis should be used only for operators with the same precedence level

Your way of writing, in many places I have known, would not have passed quality assurance

for example :

Hello,

Your problem may be with the first "or".
