ABAP code example for Function Module MC_ACT_MCO

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module MC_ACT_MCO 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_rc  
 
 TYPE SY-SUBRC
,
it_mctbat_tab  
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF MCTBAT,"TABLES PARAM
wa_mctbat_tab
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_mctbat_tab
.


DATA(ld_act_control) = 'some text here'.
 

SELECT single MCONAME 
  FROM DD20V 
  INTO @DATA(ld_act_mconame).


DATA(ld_prid) = '123 '.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_mctbat_tab to it_mctbat_tab.

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_rc
 
 TYPE SY-SUBRC ,
ld_act_control
 
 TYPE STRING ,
it_mctbat_tab
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF MCTBAT ,
wa_mctbat_tab
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_mctbat_tab,
ld_act_mconame
 
 TYPE DD20V-MCONAME ,
ld_prid
 
 TYPE SY-TABIX .


ld_act_control = 'some text here'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_mctbat_tab to it_mctbat_tab.

SELECT single MCONAME 
  FROM DD20V 
  INTO ld_act_mconame.

ld_prid = '123 '.
