Output Parameters
Formal parameter of a
procedure whose value is set in the procedure and is made available in the
actual parameter after the procedure is completed. Output parameters are defined in
methods and
function modules using EXPORTING, and are therefore also known as EXPORTING parameters. In
subroutines, output parameters are grouped together with the
input/output parameters and are defined using CHANGING.
