Questions about creation and management of ABAP data definitions like tables, views, search helps, domains and data elements

The ABAP Dictionary is used to manage SAP data definitions. The dictionary can be used to create, change, and display table entries and structures. Within SAP, the dictionary can be navigated to using transaction code SE11.

Some important object types defined in the data dictionary are:

  • Tables: database tables made up of rows and columns, the collection of fields that contain data.
  • Views: define tables and fields from one or more tables to create an application-dependent view of those components, hiding fields that are not needed.
  • Lock Objects: used to manage parallel access to a table by locking and unlocking table access.
  • Domains: used to maintain the technical information of a field, including its data type.
