ABAP code example for Function Module WFM_GET_FORECAST_STARTUP





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module WFM_GET_FORECAST_STARTUP 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_et_status_list    TYPE WFMFCT_FORECAST_STATUS
,
ld_et_return    TYPE BAPIRET2_T
.




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

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

CALL FUNCTION 'WFM_GET_FORECAST_STARTUP'
  EXPORTING
    iv_start_date =              ld_iv_start_date
    iv_end_date =                ld_iv_end_date
  IMPORTING
    et_status_list =             ld_et_status_list

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_et_status_list  TYPE WFMFCT_FORECAST_STATUS ,
ld_iv_start_date  TYPE BEGDATUM ,
ld_et_return  TYPE BAPIRET2_T ,
ld_iv_end_date  TYPE ENDDATUM .




ld_iv_start_date = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_iv_end_date = 'Check type of data required'.
