%cid_ref

ABAP_USE
%cid_ref is a component of BDEF derived types. It is used as a reference to a RAP BO instance for which %cid has been specified manually. The value of %cid_ref is the same string as %cid that is referred to. This %cid must exist in the same ABAP_EML MODIFY request. Thus, %cid_ref cannot be used to refer to a particular %cid from another request.
When referencing an instance that has been created in the same request, note the following aspects:

It is mandatory to provide %cid and then %cid_ref in the referencing operation. Otherwise, the new instance is not found in a referencing operation.

%key is ignored in the referencing operation. If %cid_ref is provided in a referencing operation, %key need not be specified.
