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_return  TYPE BAPIRET2 ,
ld_is_new_record  TYPE STRING ,
ld_es_keys  TYPE WFAS_KEY_RTN ,
ld_iv_db_table_name  TYPE TABNAME16 ,
ld_iv_table_key_name  TYPE FIELDNAME .




ld_is_new_record = 'some text here'.
ld_iv_db_table_name = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_iv_table_key_name = 'Check type of data required'.
