MOVE-CORRESPONDING
Syntax Forms
Variant for Structures
1. MOVE-CORRESPONDING [EXACT] struc1 TO struc2
[EXPANDING NESTED TABLES].
Variant for Internal Tables
2. MOVE-CORRESPONDING [EXACT] itab1 TO itab2
[EXPANDING NESTED TABLES] [KEEPING TARGET LINES].
Effect
The statement MOVE-CORRESPONDING is used to assign components with the same name in structured data objects to each other. There are two variants of the statements, which can call each other internally:
No other combinations of operand types are possible. Field symbols typed with the generic type ANY or formal parameters can also be used as operands. An operand of this type must be either a structure or an internal table when the statement is executed and match the other operands; if not, an unhandleable exception is raised. struc1 and itab1 are functional operand positions.
