TYPE-POOLS

Basic form

TYPE-POOLS tpool.

Effect

Includes the types and constants of a type group. If the type group tpool has already been included, the statement is ignored. You can only maintain a type group via the ABAP/4 Dictionary (using Transaction SE11). You introduce a type group with the TYPE-POOL statement. Since the types and constants specified in a type group have global validity, you cannot use the statement within a FORM or FUNCTION.

Example

TYPE-POOLS VERI1.
DATA X TYPE VERI1_TYP1.
