Hi mandel ,

Data(out) indicates that a new variable, "OUT," is being declared inline. It's just creating the variable. Variables may be single variables, workarea, or internal tables.

For inline decleration, refer

DATA, Inline Declaration for Variables - ABAP Keyword Documentation (sap.com)

Best Regards,

Berinath Ulisi.
