ABAP Development
11 sections ใป 66 quiz questions
ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) is the language SAP built to write business applications in. SAP standard functionality is itself written in ABAP, and custom development uses the same language.
What characterises ABAP is that what business systems need is built into the language and runtime: database access through Open SQL, screen handling, printing, authorisation checks, translation, and transport of development objects โ all without external libraries. That single-purpose design is what most distinguishes it from general-purpose languages.
These eleven sections start with the development environment and data types, move through internal tables and Open SQL as the core of the language, then modularisation and object orientation, and finish with ALV reporting, the Data Dictionary and debugging.
