ABAP FAQ

Views, matchcodes, and lock objects are also called aggregate objects because they are formed from several related tables.

– Non standard conversions from display format to sap internal format and vice-versa are implemented with so called conversion routines.

– When two users simultaneously attempt to access the same data record, this issynchronised by a lock mechanism. When dialog transactions are programmed, locks are set and released by calling certainfunction modules. These function modules are generated automatically from thedefinition of so-called lock objects in the ABAP/4 Dictionary.To synchronize the access to a table by … Read more

If the program contains the same or similar blocks of statements or it is required to process the same function several times, we can avoid redundancy by using modularization techniques. By modularizing the ABAP/4 programs we make them easy to read and improve their structure. Modularized programs are also easier to maintain and to update.

Subroutines are program modules which can be called from other ABAP/4 programs or within the same program.
