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_queue_id
 
 TYPE APQD-QID ,
it_transactions
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF BDCTH ,
wa_transactions
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_transactions,
ld_name
 
 TYPE APQI-GROUPID ,
it_dynprotab
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF BDCDATA ,
wa_dynprotab
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_dynprotab.



SELECT single QID 
  FROM APQD 
  INTO ld_queue_id.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_transactions to it_transactions.

SELECT single GROUPID
