ABAP code example for Function Module RH_BUILD_SEL_INTERVAL

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module RH_BUILD_SEL_INTERVAL 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_begda_sel  
 
 TYPE BEGDATUM
,
ld_endda_sel  
 
 TYPE ENDDATUM
.


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

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

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

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

CALL FUNCTION 'RH_BUILD_SEL_INTERVAL'
  EXPORTING
    begda_rela =                 ld_begda_rela
    endda_rela =                 ld_endda_rela
    begda_obj =                  ld_begda_obj

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_begda_sel
 
 TYPE BEGDATUM ,
ld_begda_rela
 
 TYPE BEGDATUM ,
ld_endda_sel
 
 TYPE ENDDATUM ,
ld_endda_rela
 
 TYPE ENDDATUM ,
ld_begda_obj
 
 TYPE BEGDATUM ,
ld_endda_obj
 
 TYPE ENDDATUM .


ld_begda_rela = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_endda_rela = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_begda_obj = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_endda_obj = 'Check type of data required'.
