Use PERFORM-ENDPERFORM to do the deletion of space in a FORM defined in external ABAP program.
The following example demonstrates the ability to execute ABAP c ode from with SAPScript.
eg.
      /:PERFORM get_date IN PROGRAM zreport
            /:USING &SALESORDER&
            /:CHANGING &S_DATE&
            /:ENDPERFORM  
            The date &S_DATE& ....
           The  ABAP Code would be
           REPORT zreport.
           TABLES ztab.
           FORM get_date TABLES in_tab STRUCTURE ITCSY out_tab
           STRUCTURE ITCSY .
           READ TABLE in_tab INDEX 1.
           SELECT some_date FROM ztab WHERE salesorder = in_tab-value.
           IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
           READ TABLE out-tab INDEX 1.
           MOVE ztab-somedate TO out_tab-value
           MODIFY out_tab INDEX 1.
           ENDIF.
           ENDFORM.
In the above code USING is used to pass the value to the subroutine while changing is used to recieve the value from the subroutine ,for further paramters we can use either USING or CHANGING .
In the subroutine the type of paramter is always an internal table of type ITCSY  irrespective of the value passed.The VALUE field of the internal table is used to fill and recieve the values
