ABAP code example for Function Module G_VARIABLE_CROSSREF_CREATE

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module G_VARIABLE_CROSSREF_CREATE 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_ins_count_t809i  
 
 TYPE SY-TABIX
.


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

SELECT single FKT 
  FROM T802G 
  INTO @DATA(ld_formula).

 

SELECT single GLOBAL 
  FROM T802G 
  INTO @DATA(ld_variable).

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_ins_count_t809i
 
 TYPE SY-TABIX ,
ld_client
 
 TYPE SY-MANDT ,
ld_formula
 
 TYPE T802G-FKT ,
ld_variable
 
 TYPE T802G-GLOBAL .


ld_client = 'Check type of data required'.

SELECT single FKT 
  FROM T802G 
  INTO ld_formula.


SELECT single GLOBAL 
  FROM T802G 
  INTO ld_variable.
