ABAP code example for Function Module ME_CUNIT_INPUT

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

SELECT single KZEX3 
  FROM T006 
  INTO @DATA(ld_i_kzex3).

 

SELECT single KZEX6

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_e_meins
 
 TYPE T006-MSEHI ,
ld_i_kzex3
 
 TYPE T006-KZEX3 ,
ld_i_kzex6
 
 TYPE T006-KZEX6 ,
ld_i_meins
 
 TYPE STRING .



SELECT single KZEX3 
  FROM T006 
  INTO ld_i_kzex3.


SELECT single KZEX6 
  FROM T006 
  INTO ld_i_kzex6.

ld_i_meins = 'some text here'.
