ABAP code example for Function Module PFO_GET_TYPE_PROCESS

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module PFO_GET_TYPE_PROCESS 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_es_obt_proc  
 
 TYPE PFO_S_OBT_PROC
.


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

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

CALL FUNCTION 'PFO_GET_TYPE_PROCESS'
  EXPORTING
    id_kind =                    ld_id_kind

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_es_obt_proc
 
 TYPE PFO_S_OBT_PROC ,
ld_id_kind
 
 TYPE PFO_OBJKIND ,
ld_id_type
 
 TYPE PFO_OBJTYPE .


ld_id_kind = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_id_type = 'Check type of data required'.
