ABAP code example for Function Module INX_APPEND





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module INX_APPEND 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_inxpt  TYPE SY-TABIX ,
it_inx  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF INXX,"TABLES PARAM
wa_inx  LIKE LINE OF it_inx .

DATA(ld_sortfeld) = 'Check type of data required'.
DATA(ld_tabpt) = '123 '.

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_inx to it_inx. . CALL FUNCTION 'INX_APPEND' EXPORTING * sortfeld = ld_sortfeld tabpt = ld_tabpt IMPORTING inxpt = ld_inxpt TABLES inx = it_inx . " INX_APPEND
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0. "All OK 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_inxpt  TYPE SY-TABIX ,
ld_sortfeld  TYPE CLIKE ,
it_inx  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF INXX ,
wa_inx  LIKE LINE OF it_inx,
ld_tabpt  TYPE SY-TABIX .

ld_sortfeld = '123 '.

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_inx to it_inx.
ld_tabpt = '123 '.
