  • Key Concepts: 
    Numerical operand position is a feature of the ABAP Runtime Environment in SAP. It is used to define the position of a numerical operand in a statement. This feature allows for more efficient coding and better readability of the code. 
    
    How to use it: 
    In order to use numerical operand position, you must first define the position of the numerical operand in the statement. This can be done by using the “POSITION” keyword followed by the number of the position. For example, if you want to define the position of a numerical operand as 3, you would write “POSITION 3”. Once this is done, you can then use the numerical operand in your statement.

    When using numerical operand position, it is important to remember that the positions start from 1 and not 0. Additionally, it is important to note that if you are using multiple numerical operands in a statement, they must be defined in ascending order.
