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_object_id
 
 TYPE SOODK ,
it_link_list
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SOODK ,
wa_link_list
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_link_list,
ld_owner
 
 TYPE SOUD-USRNAM .


ld_object_id = 'Check type of data required'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_link_list to it_link_list.

SELECT single USRNAM 
  FROM SOUD 
  INTO ld_owner.
