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_i_ismnr
 
 TYPE DISMP-ISMNR ,
it_e_ditpr
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF DITPR ,
wa_e_ditpr
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_e_ditpr,
ld_i_ismvr
 
 TYPE DISMP-ISMVR .



ld_i_ismnr = some text here 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_e_ditpr to it_e_ditpr.

ld_i_ismvr = Check type of data required
