ABAP tricks #23/100: 😀 CORRESPONDING Operator

• Expressions with the CORRESPONDING operator construct structures and internal tables based on a data type. The assignments are made using identical names or based on mapping relationships.

• It has a similarity with the ABAP statement MOVE-CORRESPONDING.

• 

MOVE-CORRESPONDING ls_tab1 TO ls_tab2 

ls_tab2 = CORRESPONDING #( ls_tab1 )

Although the functionality is the same, note that, as the name implies, constructor operators construct and - without the addition of BASE - target objects are initialized. Hence, the above two statements are not the same.
