ABAP code example for Function Module SWW_WI_CONTAINER_INSERT

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module SWW_WI_CONTAINER_INSERT 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).

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_wi_header
 
 TYPE SWWWIHEAD ,
ld_exception
 
 TYPE CX_SWF_CNT_CONTAINER ,
ld_wi_id
 
 TYPE SWWWIHEAD-WI_ID ,
it_wi_container
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SWCONT ,
wa_wi_container
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_wi_container,
ld_do_commit
 
 TYPE SWWCOMMIT-COMMITFLAG ,
ld_wi_container_handle
 
 TYPE IF_SWF_CNT_CONTAINER .


ld_wi_header = 'Check type of data required'.

SELECT single WI_ID 
  FROM SWWWIHEAD 
  INTO ld_wi_id.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_wi_container to it_wi_container.

ld_do_commit = some text here
