Q1)What is SAP ABAP?
SAP ABAP stands for Advanced Business Application Programming. SAP ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) is a high-level programming language created by the German software company SAP SE. ABAP is primarily used for developing and customizing applications within the SAP ecosystem, which includes enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and other business software solutions. C++ is used to implement the ABAP kernel. A procedural and object-oriented programming model are both supported by the hybrid programming language ABAP.

Q2)What do you mean by interfaces in SAP ABAP?

 The interface in SAP ABAP is different from the class, it can not have any implementation like the class. It defines a set of method declarations that a class must implement without providing any implementation detail of that method. Interface helps in achieving multiple inheritance. Multiple inheritance can be defined as a class can inherit multiple interfaces. Due to Inheritance interface provides a base for polymorphism because the method declared in the interface behaves differently in different classes. Like class Interface can be defined locally or globally in the ABAP programming language.

Q3)What are internal tables in SAP ABAP?

 In SAP ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming), internal tables are data structures used to store and manipulate data within an ABAP program. These tables are similar to arrays or data collections in other programming languages, but they have specific features and characteristics that make them well-suited for handling database records, query results, and other structured data in SAP applications.

Q4)What are different types of data classes in SAP ABAP?

Answer: There are several types of data classes in SAP ABAP, each with its own characteristics and purposes. Here are the main data classes in SAP ABAP:

Master Data : Master data includes data that rarely changes, such as customer and vendor master data, material master data, and other reference data.

Transaction Data: Transaction data consists of business transactions, such as sales orders, purchase orders, invoices, and other documents.

Organization Data : Organization data represents the organizational structure of a company, including organizational units, departments, and other structural information.

System Data: System data contains information about the SAP system itself, such as configuration settings and system-specific parameters.

Q5) How many ways are there to access an SAP system?

There are two ways for users to access an SAP system.

using SAP GUI

by using a Web browser

We refer to this as a front-end. Only the front-end, not the application databases server, can be installed by the user. The user’s requests for the database server and application servers are accepted by the front end.

Q6)Explain the types of function modules in SAP ABAP.

SAP ABAP has different types of function modules. Remote-enabled function modules allow communication with other systems. Normal function modules perform specific tasks. RFC-enabled modules provide external system access. Update function modules help update database tables. Background modules run tasks in the background. 

TCP/IP function modules allow internet communication. Each serves a unique purpose in SAP ABAP, aiding diverse tasks and integrations.

Q7)Describe a subroutine.
The subroutine is a piece of code that can be reused. It is a specialized component used in ABAP programs where functions are included within their source code. A subroutine can be called out for a specific program section to understand the main program better.
Q8)Is SAP ABAP tough?
Learning SAP ABAP can be challenging for some due to its complexity, but it’s manageable and rewarding with dedication and practice.
Q9)Why does SAP use ABAP?
SAP uses ABAP because it’s a programming language specially designed for business processes. ABAP helps customize and manage SAP software, making it work efficiently for various companies’ needs.
Q10)What are the tools used in SAP ABAP?
Eclipse-based tools are employed in SAP ABAP. These tools were developed using Eclipse techniques and easily fit into the Eclipse ecosystem. Another one is GUI-based instruments. Through the SAP GUI, some ABAP tools are made accessible in the new IDE.
Q11)Is SAP ABAP functional or technical?
The SAP functional modules are the ones that offer the characteristics your company needs. They manage orders, inventory, human resources, the transformation of raw data into business intelligence, and other tasks. SAP ABAP are examples of functional manuals.
Q11)Does the SAP ABAP Object Supports multiple inheritances?
Answer: No, SAP ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) does not support multiple inheritances for classes. ABAP supports single inheritance, which means that a class can inherit properties and methods from a single superclass (base class). ABAP supports multiple interface inheritance, which allows a class to implement multiple interfaces. This way, a class can define and inherit the behavior specified in multiple interfaces, but it cannot inherit the implementation of methods from multiple classes.
Q12)Please Explain different types of views in SAP ABAP.
Answer: In SAP ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming), “views” refer to different types of data views or database views that allow you to define and manipulate data in a structured manner. These views provide a way to access, filter, and display data from database tables or other views. The main types of views in SAP ABAP are:
Database View: A database view is a logical view of data that combines fields from one or more database tables into a single virtual table.
Projection View: A projection view is a type of database view that selects specific fields from one or more tables without joining them.
Help View: A help view is a type of database view that simplifies data retrieval from multiple tab…
Q13)Explain IDoc in SAP ABAP?
Answer: An IDoc (Intermediate Document) in SAP ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) is a standardized data format used for exchanging business data between different SAP systems or between SAP and non-SAP systems. IDocs serve as a means of asynchronous communication and data exchange, allowing organizations to transmit and receive structured data efficiently.
Q14)Please explain SAP ALE in details:
 SAP ALE stands for Application Link Enabling is a technology that is used to swap business data between various SAP system or between SAP and non-SAP systems. It acts as an integration technology which enables the different types of applications and system operations within an organization to facilitate the business processing and flow of information. In simple terms, SAP ALE describes the message flow between logical systems.
There are three layers in the ALE system and that is mentioned below:
Application services – One of the integration technologies which comprise of business messages and data management in SAP systems.
Distribution services – It allows us to distribute data asynchronously which means that dat…
