Explain yhe below ABAP Code

Hi,

The following CODE was written in the Update Rules as Field routine...of a Business Content.

Could you please explain me what job does the code was performing

fill the internal table "MONITOR", to make monitor entries

result value of the routine

if not &CS&-datebirth is initial.

&RS& = &CS&-calday0(4) - &CS&-datebirth0(4).

IF &CS&-calday4(4) LT &CS&-datebirth4(4).

&RS& = &RS& - 1.

ENDIF.

if the returncode is not equal zero, the result will not be updated

&RC& = 0.

if abort is not equal zero, the update process will be canceled

&AB& = 0.

Thanks

Hello BW USER,

 * fill the internal table "MONITOR", to make monitor entries

This is a comment, that you can use the MONITOR table for your own error messages in the scheduler protocol; if needed I could send you the appropriate code..

 * result value of the routine

This comment indicates the section, where the results were computed.

 if not &CS&-datebirth is initial. 
&RS& = &CS&-calday+0(4) - &CS&-datebirth+0(4). 
IF &CS&-calday+4(4) LT &CS&-datebirth+4(4). 
&RS& = &RS& - 1. 
ENDIF. 
ENDIF.

Now the values of the communication structure &CS& are transformed in values of the return structure &RS& (here the current age of a person in years). The type of &RS& and &CS& depend on the technical name of your update rule, e.g. RESULT LIKE /BIC/VZIB_POSIBT-/BIC/ZIM_CGCO and COMM_STRUCTURE LIKE /BIC/CSZI_POSIB_IST.

 * if the returncode is not equal zero, the result will not be updated 
&RC& = 0.

Here you can return whether your transformation was successful or not.

 * if abort is not equal zero, the update process will be canceled 
&AB& = 0.

Finally you can state whether a technical error appeared during your transformation.

Hope this helps

regards M.L.
