what is the difference between parameter and parameters

hi everybody

what is the exact difference between parameter and parameters

Former Member — Tue, 15 Aug 2006 05:35:32 GMT

I am not sure in which context you are asking.

PARAMETERS is a key word to declare parameters for the report's selection screen.

The same term is also used in the context of subroutines / function modules / methods-classes.

Hi,

As far as selection-screens are concerned, the word PARAMETERS and PARAMETER is the same. I just tried it. Below is an example:

**PARAMETERS**

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.

PARAMETERS: p_bukrs TYPE t001-bukrs OBLIGATORY,

p_asof TYPE bsis-budat OBLIGATORY,

p_year TYPE bsis-gjahr OBLIGATORY.

SELECT-OPTIONS: s_hkont FOR bsis-hkont NO INTERVALS OBLIGATORY.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b1.

**PARAMETER**

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.

PARAMETER: p_bukrs TYPE t001-bukrs OBLIGATORY,

p_asof TYPE bsis-budat OBLIGATORY,

p_year TYPE bsis-gjahr OBLIGATORY.

SELECT-OPTIONS: s_hkont FOR bsis-hkont NO INTERVALS OBLIGATORY.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b1.

Hope this helps...
