ABAP code example for Function Module HR_BR_GET_PAYROLL_CONSTANT

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module HR_BR_GET_PAYROLL_CONSTANT 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_p_value
 
 TYPE T511P-BETRG ,
ld_p_constant
 
 TYPE T511P-KONST ,
ld_p_date
 
 TYPE SY-DATUM ,
ld_sw_prot
 
 TYPE PBR99_FLAG ,
ld_sw_header
 
 TYPE PBR99_FLAG .



SELECT single KONST 
  FROM T511P 
  INTO ld_p_constant.

ld_p_date = '20210129'.
ld_sw_prot = '20210129'.
ld_sw_header = '20210129'.
