ABAP code example for Function Module ARF_SET_SOURCE_TYPE





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module ARF_SET_SOURCE_TYPE including all data declarations. The code uses the latest in-line data DECLARATION SYNTAX but I have included an ABAP code snippet at the end to show how declarations would look using the original method of declaring data variables up front. This will allow you to compare and fully understand the new inline method. Please note some of the newer syntax such as the @DATA is not available until a later 4.70 service pack (SP8).

DATA:
ld_o_source_type    TYPE STRING
,
ld_o_bulk_pick    TYPE STRING
,
it_t_to_items    TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF LTAP,"TABLES PARAM
wa_t_to_items  LIKE LINE OF it_t_to_items
.




DATA(ld_i_post_change) = 'Check type of data required'.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_t_to_items to it_t_to_items.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'ARF_SET_SOURCE_TYPE'
  EXPORTING
    i_post_change =              ld_i_post_change
  IMPORTING
    o_source_type =              ld_o_source_type
    o_bulk_pick =                ld_o_bulk_pick
  TABLES
    t_to_items =                 it_t_to_items

ENDIF.







ABAP code to compare 7.40 inline data declaration with original syntax

The below ABAP code uses the older none in-line data declarations. This allows you to see the coding differences/benefits of the later inline syntax. It may also be useful if you are using an older version of SAP as some of the newer syntax above, such as the @DATA is not available until 4.70 EHP 8.

DATA:


ld_o_source_type  TYPE STRING ,
ld_i_post_change  TYPE C ,
it_t_to_items  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF LTAP ,
wa_t_to_items  LIKE LINE OF it_t_to_items,
ld_o_bulk_pick  TYPE STRING .




ld_i_post_change = 'Check type of data required'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_t_to_items to it_t_to_items.
