Prefer NEW to CREATE OBJECT

DATA object TYPE REF TO /clean/some_number_range.
object = NEW #( '/CLEAN/CXTGEN' )
...
DATA(object) = NEW /clean/some_number_range( '/CLEAN/CXTGEN' ).
...
DATA(object) = CAST /clean/number_range( NEW /clean/some_number_range( '/CLEAN/CXTGEN' ) ).

instead of the needlessly longer

" anti-pattern
DATA object TYPE REF TO /dirty/some_number_range.
CREATE OBJECT object
  EXPORTING
    number_range = '/DIRTY/CXTGEN'.

except where you need dynamic types, of course

CREATE OBJECT number_range TYPE (dynamic_type)
  EXPORTING
    number_range = '/CLEAN/CXTGEN'.
