ABAP code example for Function Module CHECK_POSITION





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module CHECK_POSITION 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_begda) = 20210129


DATA(ld_otype) = some text here


DATA(ld_plans) = Check type of data required
.

CALL FUNCTION 'CHECK_POSITION'
  EXPORTING
    begda =                      ld_begda
    otype =                      ld_otype
    plans =                      ld_plans
  EXCEPTIONS
    OTYPE_AND_PLANS =            1
    ERROR_T528B =                2
    .  "  CHECK_POSITION

IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
  "All OK
ELSEIF SY-SUBRC EQ 1. "Exception
  "Add code for exception here
ELSEIF SY-SUBRC EQ 2. "Exception
  "Add code for exception here
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_begda  TYPE P2001-BEGDA ,
ld_otype  TYPE P2001-OTYPE ,
ld_plans  TYPE P2001-PLANS .





ld_begda = 20210129

ld_otype = some text here

ld_plans = Check type of data required
