ABAP code example for Function Module MARC_IUID_CHECK

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module MARC_IUID_CHECK 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_mara) = 'Check type of data required'.

DATA(ld_lmara) = 'Check type of data required'.

DATA(ld_marc) = 'Check type of data required'.

DATA(ld_lmarc) = 'Check type of data required'.

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_mara
 
 TYPE MARA ,
ld_lmara
 
 TYPE MARA ,
ld_marc
 
 TYPE MARC ,
ld_lmarc
 
 TYPE MARC .


ld_mara = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_lmara = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_marc = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_lmarc = 'Check type of data required'.
