ABAP code example for Function Module MKAL_SET_DATA

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module MKAL_SET_DATA 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:
it_mkal_tab  
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF MKAL,"TABLES PARAM
wa_mkal_tab
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_mkal_tab
.


DATA(ld_pflegeebene_marc) = 'some text here'.
 

SELECT single MATNR 
  FROM MKAL 
  INTO @DATA(ld_matnr).

 

SELECT single WERKS 
  FROM MKAL 
  INTO @DATA(ld_werks).

 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_mkal_tab to it_mkal_tab.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'MKAL_SET_DATA'
* EXPORTING

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_pflegeebene_marc
 
 TYPE SY-MARKY ,
it_mkal_tab
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF MKAL ,
wa_mkal_tab
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_mkal_tab,
ld_matnr
 
 TYPE MKAL-MATNR ,
ld_werks
 
 TYPE MKAL-WERKS .


ld_pflegeebene_marc = 'some text here'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_mkal_tab to it_mkal_tab.

SELECT single MATNR 
  FROM MKAL 
  INTO ld_matnr.


SELECT single WERKS 
  FROM MKAL 
  INTO ld_werks.
