The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module HR_BEN_GET_KEY_DATE 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).

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_keydt  TYPE SY-DATUM ,
ld_begda  TYPE SY-DATUM ,
it_error_table  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF RPBENERR ,
wa_error_table  LIKE LINE OF it_error_table,
ld_subrc  TYPE SY-SUBRC ,
ld_endda  TYPE SY-DATUM ,
ld_datum  TYPE SY-DATUM ,
ld_reaction  TYPE SY-MSGTY .

ld_begda = '20210129'.

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_error_table to it_error_table.
ld_endda = '20210129'.
ld_datum = '20210129'.
