Subroutines
Sintaxis de declaracin: (igual para subrutinas internas y externas) FORM nombre [ parmetros ]. statements. ENDFORM. Llamada a una subrutina interna: PERFORM nombre [ parmetros ]. Llamada a una subrutina externa: PERFORM name (programa) [ parms ] [ IF FOUND ].
En este caso se debe indicar el programa en el cual se encuentra la subrutina llamada. Con IF FOUND, si la subrutina no existe, la sentencia PERFORM es ignorada y no se genera error.

Working with Structures

[ Defining Structures with Local Types ]
TYPES: BEGIN OF st_flightinfo, carrid TYPE s_carr_id, connid TYPE s_conn_id, fldate TYPE s_date, END OF wa_flightinfo TYPE st_flightinfo. DATA wa_flightinfo TYPE st_flightinfo.

Screens
The screens in a single ABAP program can be combined to form screen sequences. You can call single screens or screen sequences either using a transaction code from outside the ABAP program, or by using the CALL SCREEN statement in the corresponding ABAP program. When you call a screen or screen sequence, the screen flow logic takes control of the ABAP program execution. You can define screen sequences dynamically by setting the next screen attribute for a screen dynamically in the ABAP program. Selection screens are one of the three types of screen in the R/3 System, along with dialog screens and lists. You use them whenever you want the user to enter either a single value for a field or fields, or to enter selection criteria. Las listas no definen botones y recursos con nombres que luego se utilizan en ABAP en este caso se utilizan areas de trabajo libres y las sentencias WRITE, ULINE; and SKIP .
