Move: transfer the data from a structure to another one in according to the length of original structure;

Move-corresponding: transfer the data from a structure to another one in according to the name of the fields, so in your case:

data: begin of t_cash, "cash transactions

D1(08), "Post Date

D2(40), "Employee Name

D3(40), "Employee Vendor Id

end of t_cash.

data: begin of t_card, "card transactions

D1(08), "Post Date

D2(40), "Employee Name

D4(25), "Merchant Name

end of t_card.

If you use MOVE, u shoudl consider T_CARD is shorter than T_CASH: the last field D4 is long 25 CHAR, but the last field D3 is long 40 char. So u'll loose the last 15 digit of T_CASH

MOVE T_CASH TO T_CARD.

is like

T_CARD = T_CASH(73).

If you use MOVE-CORRESPONDING, u'll transfer only the information of the field D1 and D2:

MOVE-CORRESPONDING T_CASH TO T_CARD.

is like

T_CARD-D1 = T_CASH-D1.

T_CARD-D2 = T_CASH-D2.

Now the problem is ECC 6.00 is unicode release, so the statament MOVE-CORRESPONDING can't be used if the original and destination variable have a different structure.
