1. Can you create a table with fields not referring to data elements?

YES. eg:- ITAB LIKE SPFLI.here we are referening to a data object(SPFLI) not data element.
What are the

different types of data dictionary objects? tables, structures, views, domains, data elements, lock objects, Match code

objects.

2. What should be the approach for writing a BDC program?

STEP 1: CONVERTING THE LEGACY SYSTEM

DATA TO A FLAT FILE to internal table CALLED "CONVERSION".
STEP 2: TRANSFERING THE FLAT FILE INTO SAP SYSTEM CALLED "SAP

DATA TRANSFER".
STEP 3: DEPENDING UPON THE BDC TYPE
i)call transaction(Write the program explicity)
ii) create

sessions (sessions are created and processed.if success data will transfer).

3. What are the problems in processing

batch input sessions and How is batch input process different from processing online?

PROBLEMS:
i) If the user

forgets to opt for keep session then the session will be automatically removed from the session queue(log remains). However

if session is processed we may delete it manually.
ii)if session processing fails data will not be transferred to SAP

database table.

4. What does an extract statement do in the ABAP program?

Once you have declared the

possible record types as field groups and defined their structure, you can fill the extract dataset using the following

statements: EXTRACT. When the first EXTRACT statement occurs in a program, the system creates the extract dataset and adds

the first extract record to it. In each subsequent EXTRACT statement, the new extract record is added to the dataset EXTRACT

HEADER. When you extract the data, the record is filled with the current values of the corresponding fields. As soon as the

system has processed the first EXTRACT statement for a field group , the structure of the corresponding extract record in the

extract dataset is fixed. You can no longer insert new fields into the field groups and HEADER. If you try to modify one of

the field groups afterwards and use it in another EXTRACT statement, a runtime error occurs. By processing EXTRACT statements

several times using different field groups, you fill the extract dataset with records of different length and structure.

Since you can modify field groups dynamically up to their first usage in an EXTRACT statement, extract datasets provide the

advantage that you need not determine the structure at the beginning of the program.

5. Can a transparent table

exist in data dictionary but not in the data base physically?

NO. TRANSPARENT TABLE DO EXIST WITH THE SAME

STRUCTURE BOTH IN THE DICTIONARY AS WELL AS IN THE DATABASE,EXACTLY WITH THE SAME DATA AND FIELDS.

6. What is the

step by step process to create a table in data dictionary?

step 1: creating domains(data type, field length,

range).
step 2: creating data elements(properties and type for a table field).
step 3: creating tables(SE11).

7. What is the typical structure of an ABAP/4 program?

HEADER ,BODY,FOOTER.

8. A situation:

An ABAP program creates a batch input session. We need to submit the program and the batch session in back ground. How to do

it?

go to SM36 and create background job by giving job name, job class and job steps (JOB SCHEDULING)

9.

What are the domains and data elements?

DOMAINS : FORMAL DEFINITION OF THE DATA TYPES.THEY SET ATTRIBUTES SUCH AS

DATA TYPE,LENGTH,RANGE. DATA ELEMENT : A FIELD IN R/3 SYSTEM IS A DATA ELEMENT.

10. What is the alternative to batch

input session?

Call transaction.

12. What is a batch input session?

BATCH INPUT SESSION is an

intermediate step between internal table and database table. Data along with the action is stored in session ie data for

screen fields, to which screen it is passed, program name behind it, and how next screen is processed.

13. What is

the advantage of structures? How do you use them in the ABAP programs?

Adv:- GLOBAL EXISTANCE(these could be used

by any other program without creating it again).

14. How many types of tables exists and what are they in data

dictionary?

There are 4 types of tables

i)Transparent tables - Exists with the same structure both in

dictionary as well as in database exactly with the same data and fields. Both Opensql and Nativesql can be used.
ii)Pool

tables &
iii)Cluster tables - These are logical tables that are arranged as records of transparent tables. one cannot use

native sql on these tables (only open sql).They are not managable directly using database system tools.
iv)Internal

tables
