Prefer IS SUPPLIED over IS REQUESTED

WarningClean ABAP & Modern SyntaxQuickFix Ready#EC PREF_IS_SUPPLIEDRemote Enabled

Overview

Prefer IS SUPPLIED over the obsolete IS REQUESTED.

ATC Finding Message: Use IS SUPPLIED instead of IS REQUESTED

Rationale

IS REQUESTED is obsolete and only reports whether an output parameter was requested by the caller, not whether an input was actually supplied. IS SUPPLIED works for every parameter direction and states the real condition. Replace IS REQUESTED with IS SUPPLIED.

Non-Compliant

IF iv_currency IS REQUESTED.
  convert_amount( iv_currency ).
ENDIF.

Compliant

IF iv_currency IS SUPPLIED.
  convert_amount( iv_currency ).
ENDIF.
