WITH Scope Name Collision
Do not use the WITH scope when it has a variable whose name is the same as a local variable. This can lead to wrong code assumptions.
Given that
“Contract Type” is a field on table ServiceContractHeader, then in the following example there is a parameter name clash with the field name. Which one will be used?
Bad code
PROCEDURE InsertData@1("Contract Type"@1000 : Option...);
...
BEGIN
...
WITH ServiceContractHeader DO BEGIN
...
DimMgt.InsertServContractDim(...,"Contract Type","Contract No.",0,...);
END;
Good code
PROCEDURE InsertData@1(ContractType@1000 : Option...);
...
BEGIN
...
WITH ServiceContractHeader DO BEGIN
...
DimMgt.InsertServContractDim(...,ContractType,"Contract No.",0,...);
END;
