    In <LB>ABAP for SAP Cloud Platform</>, use of other objects is

    <DS:ABEN.ABAP_VERSIONS>ABAP Language Versions</>.

    System Response

    If the edited object uses a formerly released but now deprecated object,
    this results in a syntax warning.

    How to fix this error?

    Replace the use of deprecated &V1& &V2& by a suitable own type
    declaration or own object.
    Wherever possible, best practice is replacement with a meaningful ABAP
    type declaration using the TYPES statement, e.g. like shown below as
    replacement for an ABAP dictionary structure for object data, consisting
    of the two fields ID and DESCRIPTION:
    <NP>TYPES ty_id TYPE c LENGTH 10.</>
    <NP>TYPES:</>
    <NP> BEGIN OF ty_s_object<(>,<)></>
    <NP> id TYPE ty_id<(>,<)></>
    <NP> description TYPE string<(>,<)></>
    <NP> END OF ty_s_object.</>
    <NP>DATA some_object TYPE ty_s_object.</>
    If a simple data type is used only at a single location, direct
    replacement in the DATA statement using a built-in ABAP type is the
    first choice, e.g. like shown here as replacement for a data element of
    type NUMC and length 4:
    <NP>DATA some_variable TYPE n LENGTH 4.</>
