ABAP Programming WARNING: The VALUE specification is longer than the corresponding field.

[kk_india_2023]

Hi,

I am getting warning for below code.

WARNING: The VALUE specification is longer than the corresponding field.

The VALUE specification will only be passed to the field length!

CODE:

DATA: S3 VALUE 'SAP' , S4 VALUE 'ABAP' TYPE STRING.

WRITE / S3 && S4.

OUTPUT: SABAP

Why i am getting this warning and

Why only the first character of String 's3' is concatenated with the String 's4' ?

Please explain.

THANK YOU...
