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_local_amount
 
 TYPE STRING ,
ld_date
 
 TYPE SY-DATUM ,
it_t_c_errors
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SPROT_U ,
wa_t_c_errors
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_t_c_errors,
ld_foreign_currency
 
 TYPE STRING ,
ld_foreign_amount
 
 TYPE STRING ,
ld_local_currency
 
 TYPE STRING .


ld_date = '20210129'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_t_c_errors to it_t_c_errors.
ld_foreign_currency = 'some text here'.
ld_foreign_amount = 'some text here'.
