Hi swati..

The ABAP/4 language element <b>WRITE ... RIGHT-JUSTIFIED TO</b> ... provides the same functionality as the function module.

You can also use the ABAP/4 language element <b>SHIFT ... RIGHT DELETING</b> TRAILING SPACE. Also refer to the ABAP/4 documentation for WRITE or SHIFT.

Hi,

The ABAP/4 language element WRITE ... RIGHT-JUSTIFIED TO ... provides the same functionality as the function module. You can also use the ABAP/4 language element SHIFT ... RIGHT DELETING TRAILING SPACE. Also refer to the ABAP/4 documentation for WRITE or SHIFT.

The ABAP/4 language elements provide better performance than the function module call.

Reward if it helps you.

Thanks & Regards,
