Hi,

External memory ---

SAP Memory is a global memory area which all sessions within a SAPgui have access to if they run on the same application server instance. This allows for passing data between sessions.

The SET PARAMETER ID and GET PARAMETER ID statements are used to manipulate the SAP Memory.

SET PARAMETER ID 'MAT' field p_matnr.

GET PARAMETER ID 'MAT' field p_matnr.

Internal Memory -


ABAP Memory is a memory area which all programs in the call stack within the same internal session can access. The EXPORT and IMPORT statements are used here.

export p_matnr = p_matnr to memory id 'MAT'.

import p_matnr = p_matnr from memory id 'MAT'.

Hope this resolve your query.

Regards,

Rahul
