ABAP code example for Function Module CONSTRUCT_REPORTING_TREE

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module CONSTRUCT_REPORTING_TREE 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:
it_i_node_info  
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SNODETEXT,"TABLES PARAM
wa_i_node_info
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_i_node_info
.

 

SELECT single TREE_ID 
  FROM SERPTREE 
  INTO @DATA(ld_tree).


DATA(ld_with_lists) = 'some text here'.

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

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_i_node_info to it_i_node_info.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONSTRUCT_REPORTING_TREE'
  EXPORTING

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_tree
 
 TYPE SERPTREE-TREE_ID ,
it_i_node_info
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SNODETEXT ,
wa_i_node_info
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_i_node_info,
ld_with_lists
 
 TYPE STRING ,
ld_langu
 
 TYPE SY-LANGU .



SELECT single TREE_ID 
  FROM SERPTREE 
  INTO ld_tree.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_i_node_info to it_i_node_info.
ld_with_lists = 'some text here'.
ld_langu = 'Check type of data required'.
