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_ch_execution_rate  TYPE TPM_MIGRATION_EXECUTION_RATE ,
ld_ex_cancel  TYPE CHAR1 ,
