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.

ld_i_fikrs
 
 TYPE T001-FIKRS ,

ld_c_f_control_data = 'some text here'.

SELECT single BUKRS
