ABAP - Function Module Error

hailua900 — Fri, 07 Jan 2022 22:49:19 GMT

Hi,

I'm fairly new to ABAP. I'm using ABAP in Eclipse to create a sample Function Module. However, when I'm trying to enter the parameters IMPORTING, EXPORTING, or CHANGE, I get an error. It try searching for an answer but unable to figure it out. Any help is appreciated.

The following code is what I used from the book example.

FUNCTION ZFM_NEW_FUNCTION_MODULE.

IMPORTING

var_import TYPE i.

EXPORTING

var_export TYPE i.

CHANGING

var_change TYPE i.

ENDFUNCTION.

Error: The statement "IMPORTING" is not expected. A correct similar statement is "IMPORT". statement is "IMPORT".

Hi Hai,

Remove the period after ZFM_NEW_FUNCTION_MODULE.
The importing statement is part of the function declaration.

I hope this helps.
Emanuel

THANK YOU, Emanuel. I look silly now that you've shown me the issue. Thank you again friend.
