ABAP code example for Function Module CREATE_RECIPIENT_OBJ_PPF

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module CREATE_RECIPIENT_OBJ_PPF 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).

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_ep_recipient_id
 
 TYPE SWOTOBJID ,
ld_ip_country
 
 TYPE SO_FX_SATE ,
ld_ep_address
 
 TYPE SO_NAME ,
ld_ip_faxno
 
 TYPE SO_RECFAX ,
ld_et_recipient
 
 TYPE PPFTRECPT ,
ld_ip_mailaddr
 
 TYPE SO_NAME ,
ld_ip_type_id
 
 TYPE SO_ESCAPE .


ld_ip_country = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_ip_faxno = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_ip_mailaddr = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_ip_type_id = 'Check type of data required'.
