Global Macro

.

When we use the MACRO to aim the modularization , we usually  describe ‘DEFINE ~~ END-OF-DEFINITOAN’in program. Like using this, this MACRO is only available to the program where MACRO is declared, which is called as Local Macro.

While, if you define the Global MACRO, this kind of macro is accessible from all programs.

In order to use Global Macro, you can maintain TRMAC Table.

The most normal Global Macros is ‘BREAK’ statement, let’s check in table ‘TRMAC’.

 

In order to use Global macro, you can maintain TRMAC table in T-CODE:SM30.

Let’s together create a Global Macro which has a APPEND command.

 

Now you can use the ‘APT’ statement in all abap programs.
