9. What are the functional modules used in sequence in BDC?- These are the 3 functional modules which are used in a sequence to
perform a data transfer successfully using BDC programming: BDC_OPEN_GROUP - Parameters like Name of the client, sessions and
user name are specified in this functional modules. BDC_INSERT - It is used to insert the data for one transaction into a session.
BDC_CLOSE_GROUP - This is used to close the batch input session.

10. What are internal tables?- Internal tables are a standard data type object which exists only during the runtime of the program. They
are used to perform table calculations on subsets of database tables and for re-organising the contents of database tables according to
users need.

1. current Project name, client, environment, technology.

description of the project, u r roles & responsibilities in that project, testing handled (i.e., manual/automation),
bugs u found.

1. Type of table?
2. Events of module pool?
3. Events of interactive report?
4. Filters & idoc and segments?
5. Types of enhancements?
6. Type of partner profile?
7. What is RFC? What is its purpose?
8. Steps of LSMW?
9. Types of BDC? How u proceed BDC(call transaction) without recording?
10. What is message type in idoc?
11. What is a dialog program?
12. What is debugging? How do you proceed the steps in your reports?
13. What are the parameters passed to fieldcatalog?
14. What are all the tools used for debugging and run time analysis?

1. What is BDC programming?- Transferring of large/external/legacy data into SAP


system using Batch Input programming. Batch input is a automatic procedure referred
to as BDC(Batch Data Communications).The central component of the transfer is a
queue file which receives the data vie a batch input programs and groups associated
data into “sessions”.
2. What are the functional modules used in sequence in BDC?- These are the 3
functional modules which are used in a sequence to perform a data transfer
successfully using BDC programming: BDC_OPEN_GROUP - Parameters like Name
of the client, sessions and user name are specified in this functional modules.
BDC_INSERT - It is used to insert the data for one transaction into a session.
BDC_CLOSE_GROUP - This is used to close the batch input session.
3. 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.
4. How to upload data using CATT ?- These are the steps to be followed to Upload
data through CATT: Creation of the CATT test case & recording the sample data
input. Download of the source file template. Modification of the source file. Upload of
the data from the source file.

5. What is an ABAP/4 Query?- ABAP/4 Query is a powerful tool to generate simple


reports without any coding. ABAP/4 Query can generate the following 3 simple
reports: Basic List: It is the simple reports. Statistics: Reports with statistical functions
like Average, Percentages. Ranked Lists: For analytical reports. - For creating a
ABAP/4 Query, programmer has to create user group and a functional group.
Functional group can be created using with or without logical database table. Finally,
assign user group to functional group. Finally, create a query on the functional group
generated.
6. What are internal tables?- Internal tables are a standard data type object which exists
only during the runtime of the program. They are used to perform table calculations on
subsets of database tables and for re-organising the contents of database tables
according to users need.
7. What is ITS? What are the merits of ITS?- ITS is a Internet Transaction Server.
ITS forms an interface between HTTP server and R/3 system, which converts screen
provided data by the R/3 system into HTML documents and vice-versa. Merits of ITS:
A complete web transaction can be developed and tested in R/3 system. All
transaction components, including those used by the ITS outside the R/3 system at
runtime, can be stored in the R/3 system. The advantage of automatic language
processing in the R/3 system can be utilized to language-dependent HTML documents
at runtime.
8. What is DynPro?- DynPro is a Dynamic Programming which is a combination of
screen and the associated flow logic Screen is also called as DynPro.
9. What are screen painter and menu painter?- Screen painter: Screen painter is a tool
to design and maintain screen and its elements. It allows user to create GUI screens for
the transactions. Attributes, layout, filed attributes and flow logic are the elements of
Screen painter. Menu painter: Menu painter is a tool to design the interface
components. Status, menu bars, menu lists, F-key settings, functions and titles are the
components of Menu painters. Screen painter and menu painter both are the graphical
interface of an ABAP/4 applications.
10. What are the components of SAP scripts?- SAP scripts is a word processing tool of
SAP which has the following components: Standard text. It is like a standard normal
documents. Layout sets. - Layout set consists of the following components: Windows
and pages, Paragraph formats, Character formats. Creating forms in the R/3 system.
Every layout set consists of Header, paragraph, and character string. ABAP/4
program.
11. What is ALV programming in ABAP? When is this grid used in ABAP?- ALV is
Application List viewer. Sap provides a set of ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER) function
modules which can be put into use to embellish the output of a report. This set of ALV
functions is used to enhance the readability and functionality of any report output.
Cases arise in sap when the output of a report contains columns extending more than
255 characters in length. In such cases, this set of ALV functions can help choose
selected columns and arrange the different columns from a report output and also save
different variants for report display. This is a very efficient tool for dynamically
sorting and arranging the columns from a report output. The report output can contain
up to 90 columns in the display with the wide array of display options.
12. What are the events in ABAP/4 language?- Initialization, At selection-screen, Start-
of-selection, end-of-selection, top-of-page, end-of-page, At line-selection, At user-
command, At PF, Get, At New, At LAST, AT END, AT FIRST.
13. What is CTS and what do you know about it?- The Change and Transport System
(CTS) is a tool that helps you to organize development projects in the ABAP
Workbench and in Customizing, and then transport the changes between the SAP
Systems and clients in your system landscape. This documentation provides you with
an overview of how to manage changes with the CTS and essential information on
setting up your system and client landscape and deciding on a transport strategy. Read
and follow this documentation when planning your development project.
14. What are logical databases? What are the advantages/ dis-advantages of logical
databases?- To read data from a database tables we use logical database. A logical
database provides read-only access to a group of related tables to an ABAP/4 program.
Advantages: i)check functions which check that user input is complete, correct,and
plausible. ii)Meaningful data selection. iii)central authorization checks for database
accesses. iv)good read access performance while retaining the hierarchical data view
determined by the application logic. dis advantages: i)If you donot specify a logical
database in the program attributes,the GET events never occur. ii)There is no
ENDGET command,so the code block associated with an event ends with the next
event statement (such as another GET or an END-OF-SELECTION).
15. How can I make a differentiation between dependent and independent data?-
Client dependent or independent transfer requirements include client specific or cross
client objects in the change requests. Workbench objects like SAPscripts are client
specific, some entries in customizing are client independent. If you display the object
list for one change request, and then for each object the object attributes, you will find
the flag client specific. If one object in the task list has this flag on, then that transport
will be client dependent.
16. What is the difference between macro and subroutine?- Macros can only be used
in the program the are defined in and only after the definition are expanded at
compilation / generation. Subroutines (FORM) can be called from both the program
the are defined in and other programs . A MACRO is more or less an abbreviation for
some lines of code that are used more than once or twice. A FORM is a local
subroutine (which can be called external). A FUNCTION is (more or less) a
subroutine that is called external. Since debugging a MACRO is not really possible,
prevent the use of them (I’ve never used them, but seen them in action). If the
subroutine is used only local (called internal) use a FORM. If the subroutine is called
external (used by more than one program) use a FUNCTION.

In the abap section, there is a question on macros and forms. The answer incorrectly
state that a macro can only be used in the program it is defined in. In table TRMAC,
you can define macros which can be used by any SAP program.

10. How can I copy a standard table to make my own z_table.
Go to transaction SE11. Then there is one option to copy table.
Press that button. Enter the name of the standard table and in the
Target table enter Z table name and press enter.

Following are some of the answers which I gave upto my


knowledge.

1. What is the use of 'outerjoin'


Ans. With the use of outer join you can join the tables even there is
no entry in all the tables used in the view.
In case of inner join there should be an entry in al the tables use in
the view.
2. When to use logical database?
Ans. Advantage of Logical databases:
less coding s required to retrieve data compared to normal internel
tables.
Tables used LDB are in hierarchial structure.
3. What is the use of 'table index'?
Ans .Index is used for faster access of data base tables.
4. What is the use of 'FOR ALL ENTRIES'?
Ans. To avoid nested select statements we use SELECT FOR ALL
ENTRIES statement.
If there r more than 10000 records SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES is
used.
Performance wise SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES is better to use.
5. Can you set up background processing using CALL
TRANSACTION?
Yes,Using No Screen Mode.
6. What are table buffers?
Table buffers reside locally on each application server in the
system. The data of buffered tables can thus be accessed
directly from the buffer of the application server. This avoids the
time-consuming process of accessing the database.
Buffering is useful if table needs to be accessed more no. of times
in a program

Deepti
1. There are other ways of entering data into a DB table. ex. B D C
2. Collect statement collect/adds the records basing on a key field.
allows to create summarised data sets.
Append will append/add a record at the end of existing records
8. to release an object - use se10/se9
9. sales doc flow: S. A. - S. O. - Delivery - Billing
12. Delivery - invoice.
15. field symbols are used for dynamic allocation. at runtime u can

14. table controls are enhanced version for step loops where we can
expand rows .main difference between these two
is step loop can be expanded to two lines table controls can`t.
15. field symbols are just like pointers concept which are used in C
language. We use them when we want to refer to
the fields considered,it doesnt allocate any memory for it.
Venu Rapolu
1. Ans: Using BDC., LSMW,,ALE., BAPI
2. Ans: Collect: it adds the numeric fields to the existing non numeric key
field records., thereby avoiding duplicate

3 . Ans: The CTS contains work bench organizer and transport system :
The workbench organizer is used to record and contol changes to the
ABAP/4 development objects;
The transport system is used to move objects from an SAP dev.system
to production system

shipping
delivery
invoice
return goods
12. after creation of delivry note invoice is prepared
13. master_idoc_distribute will generate standard idoc

Deepti
I am enclosing some of answers which I know.

1. We can use t.Code SE16 to enter values into table only if table
maintainence is allowed for that table.
2. Append will add new entries into the table where as collect add into
the numeric type fields if other charatcer fields
matches to your selection criteria.
3. CTS used for creation of ABAP development transport requests.The
transaction code for this is SE10.
4. UserExits r used for adding additional functionality to the existing SAP
standard transactions.Using UserExits we can add additional
functionality standard SAP functionality without making any changes to
the original code.BADI is a standardized interface for ABAP sources that
enables partners and customers to enhance SAP-delivered programs in
their namespace.
5 .We can identify User exits by using transactions CMOD and SMOD.
6. After entering transaction code SE10 select the transport request
which u want to transport and click on transport icon(Truck symbol) to
release it.
10. Purchase Requistion->RFQ->Vendor Evaluation->Purchase

14. Table control is the only facility provide thru dialog programming
when we come acrosse the use of updating standared,deletion,insertion
and all database operations.
15. Field symbols r pointers to the existing data types(like 'C') which does
not allocate any memory space. These are used faster access of data.

improve the performance?
3) How to transfer the objects? Have to transferred any objects?
4) How did you test the developed objects?
5) What is the difference between SAP Memory and ABAP Memory?
6) In order to upload Purchase order details, how you handle multiple
values for a single field?
Eg: Item field may contain no. of values for a record
7) What is the procedure you followed to upload the data?
8) How did you handle errors in Call Transaction?
9) Among the Call Transaction and Session Method, which is faster?
10) What are the difference between Interactive and Drill Down Reports?

11) How to pass the variables to forms?


12) How to create a link between modified form and modified print
program?
13) What is the table, which contain the details of all the name of the
programs and forms?
14) How did you test the form u developed? How did you taken print?

20) Where we use Chain and Endchain?
21) Do you use select statement in loop endloop, how will be the
performance? To improve the performance?
22) In select-options, how to get the default values as current month first
date and last date by default?
Eg: 1/12/2004 and 31/12/2004

Go thru these answers:


2) What is meant by performance analysis? Have done
3) How to transfer the objects? Have you transferred any objects?
4) How did you test the developed objects?
I was testing a developed object. There are two types of testing
- Negative testing
- Positive testing
In negative testing we will give negative data in input and we check any
errors occurs.
In positive testing we will give positive data in input for checking errors.

10) What are the difference between Interactive and Drill Down Reports?

ABAP/4 provides some interactive events on lists such as AT LINE-


SELECTION (double click) or AT USER-COMMAND (pressing a button).
You can use these events to move through layers of information about
individual items in a list.
Drill down report is nothing but interactive report...drilldown means above
paragraph only.
11) How to pass the variables to forms?
12) What is the table, which contain the details of all the name of the
programs and forms?
Table contains vertical and horizontal lines. We can store the data in
table as blocks. We can scroll depends upon your wish. And these all are
stored in database (data dictionary).
Which contain the details of all the name of the programs and forms? (I
don't know).
13) How did you test the form u developed? How did you taken print?
14) What are Standard Texts?
16) What is the difference between Clustered Tables and Pooled
Tables?
A pooled table is used to combine several logical tables in the ABAP/4
dictionary. Pooled tables are logical tables that must be assigned to a
table pool when they are defined.
Cluster table are logical tables that must be assigned to a table cluster
when they are defined.
Cluster table can be used to store control data they can also used to
store temporary data or text such as documentation.
17) What is pf-status?
Pf status is used in interactive report for enhancing the functionality. If we
go to se41, we can get menus, items and different function keys, which
we are using for secondary list in interactive report.
18) Among "Move" and "Move Corresponding", which is efficient one?
I guess, 'move corresponding' is very efficient then 'move' statement.
Because usually we use this stamtent for internal table fields only...so if
we give move corresponding. Those fields only moving to other place
(what ever you want).
19) What are the output type and Tcodes?
20) Where we use Chain and End chain?
21) Do you use select statement in loop end loop, how will be the
performance? To improve the performance?
22) In select-options, how to get the default values as current month first
date and last date by default?
Eg: 1/12/2004 and 31/12/2004
13. What are screen painter and menu painter?- Screen painter: Screen
painter is a tool to design and maintain screen and its elements. It allows
user to create GUI screens for the transactions. Attributes, layout, filed
attributes and flow logic are the elements of Screen painter. Menu
painter: Menu painter is a tool to design the interface components.
Status, menu bars, menu lists, F-key settings, functions and titles are the
components of Menu painters. Screen painter and menu painter both are
the graphical interface of an ABAP/4 applications.
21. What is Smart Forms?- Smart Forms allows you to create forms
using a graphical design tool with robust functionality, color, and more.
Additionally, all new forms developed at SAP will be created with the new
Smart Form solution.
22. How can I make a differentiation between dependent and
independent data?- Client dependent or independent transfer
requirements include client specific or cross client objects in the change
requests. Workbench objects like SAPscripts are client specific, some
entries in customizing are client independent. If you display the object list
for one change request, and then for each object the object attributes,
you will find the flag client specific. If one object in the task list has this
flag on, then that transport will be client dependent.
