Effect

mem_area is used to specify the memory area that is assigned to the field symbol.

In an inline declaration of the field symbol with FIELD-SYMBOL(<fs>), the typing of the field symbol is performed for the static variant and for a specified expression with the data type mem_area. In the dynamic variants, the typing is performed with the generic type data.

The variants differ in the way that the system behaves after a successful assignment:
