        Why is this an issue?

        This variant of the REFRESH statement is deprecated and should be avoided.

        This REFRESH statement initializes the internal table itab, reads several rows from the database table dbtab, and adds their contents to the internal table itab. A SELECT statement should be used instead.

        Noncompliant code example

        TABLES t100.
        DATA itab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t100.
        
        t100-sprsl = 'E'.
        t100-arbgb = 'BC'.
        
        REFRESH itab FROM TABLE t100.
        

        Compliant solution

        DATA itab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t100.
        
        SELECT *
               FROM t100
               INTO TABLE itab
               WHERE sprsl = 'E' AND
                     arbgb LIKE 'BC%'.
