Hi,

You can use Standard Table concept.

When you create a standard table, you can use the following forms of the TYPES and DATA

statements. The addition INITIAL SIZE is also possible in all of the statements. The addition

WITH HEADER LINE is possible in the DATA statement.

Standard Table Types

Generic Standard Table Type:

TYPES <itab> TYPE|LIKE [STANDARD] TABLE OF <linetype>.

The table key is not defined.

Fully-Specified Standard Table Type:

TYPES <itab> TYPE|LIKE [STANDARD] TABLE OF <linetype>

WITH [NON-UNIQUE] <key>.

The key of a fully-specified standard table is always non-unique.

Standard Table Objects

Short Forms of the DATA Statement

DATA <itab> TYPE|LIKE [STANDARD] TABLE OF <linetype>.

DATA <itab> TYPE|LIKE [STANDARD] TABLE OF <linetype>

WITH DEFAULT KEY.

Both of these DATA statements are automatically completed by the system as follows:

DATA <itab> TYPE|LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF <linetype>

WITH NON-UNIQUE DEFAULT KEY.

The purpose of the shortened forms of the DATA statement is to keep the declaration of standard

tables, which are compatible with internal tables from previous releases, as simple as possible.

When you declare a standard table with reference to the above type, the system automatically

adopts the default key as the table key.

Fully-Specified Standard Tables:

DATA <itab> TYPE|LIKE [STANDARD] TABLE OF <linetype>

WITH [NON-UNIQUE] <key>.

The key of a standard table is always non-unique.

For your question, internal table will create like this:

data itab type standard table of tab_emp with default key.
