Getting error while giving inline declaration.

While giving Inline declaration, There was an syntax error.

The topinclude of a function group is used for data declarations. The statement is not a declaration but an assignment of value. In topinclude the statement is not accessible.

N.B. The statement makes no sense, because gv_fiscal_year is initial.

Eagle eyes to see L...TOP inside the screenshot 😄

So we need to declare gv fiscal post not initial.

No Sir, this statement is not possible in a topinclude of a function group. You can use your statement in a function module of this function group, but not in the data declaration of the topinclude.

I love that in the same place you have defined gv_ variables, you've also defined lv_ variables! Which are they? Global or local?

The error "Statement not accessible" typically occurs when a statement is not allowed in the current context or scope.

In your case, it seems that you are trying to perform a computation and assignment operation (`gv_previous_fyear = gv_fiscal_year - 1`) directly in the top include section.

To resolve this issue, you need to move the computation and assignment statement into a proper executable section, such as a subroutine, function module, or within an executable block of code.

For example, you can place the computation and assignment statement inside a subroutine or a method:

METHODS calculate_previous_fyear.

START-OF-SELECTION.
PERFORM calculate_previous_fyear.

FORM calculate_previous_fyear.
DATA: gv_fiscal_year TYPE numc4.
DATA(gv_previous_fyear) = gv_fiscal_year - 1.
...
ENDFORM.

Alternatively, you can place it within an executable block like this:

DATA: gv_fiscal_year TYPE numc4.
DATA(gv_previous_fyear) TYPE numc4.


START-OF-SELECTION.
gv_previous_fyear = gv_fiscal_year - 1.
...

Remember to ensure that the executable code is placed within a valid context such as a subroutine, function module, or an executable block.

To resolve this issue,

you need to write this statment in execution area i.e after star of selection.
