A table type table_type or an internal table itab from the table category standard table can be specified after the additions TYPE and LIKE.

The additions TYPE and LIKE type the row type of the formal parameter with the row type of the specified internal table. The other obsolete addition, STRUCTURE, stamps the row type with the flat structure struc.

When TABLES parameters are accessed that are not bound to any type-compliant actual parameters, the same exception situation can arise as in function modules.
