ABAP code example for Function Module UNIT_PARAMETERS_GET





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module UNIT_PARAMETERS_GET 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_decimals  TYPE T006-ANDEC ,
ld_unit  TYPE T006-MSEHI ,
ld_dimension  TYPE T006-DIMID ,
ld_numerator  TYPE T006-ZAEHL ,
ld_denominator  TYPE T006-NENNR ,
ld_exponent  TYPE T006-EXP10 ,
ld_add_const  TYPE T006-ADDKO ,
ld_decan  TYPE T006-DECAN ,
ld_famunit  TYPE T006-FAMUNIT .





SELECT single MSEHI 
  FROM T006 
  INTO ld_unit.
