etc. unlike classical reports.

What are the Function Modules used in ALV reports?

REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY and REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

What is OOPS concept?

It is a new programming technique where we can use classes objects and

methods.

How you do ALV interactive report?

By defining a subroutine name and passing I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND.

What is a class?

It is a collection of data and methods (DEFINITION AND IMPLEMENTATION)

What is a method?

Method is a coding block which provides the functionality like function

modules.

It describes the action that an object can perform.

What is the scope of attributes in OOPS?

Public – these are accessed from anywhere in the program, within the class
and outside.

Private - these are accessed only within the class they are defined in.
Protected – these are accessed within the class and the subclass they
defined in.

What is the difference between static method and instance method?

Static method – can be called using the class name without creating an
instance (by CLASS-METHODS), can access only static attributes.

Instance method – require creating an instance (object) of the class and can
access both instance and static attributes.

What is polymorphism?

Single definition and multiple implementations (single interface to represent

multiple behaviors).

What is abstraction?

It is the concept of hiding the implementation details and expose only

essential features (what an object does rather than how it does it).

What is inheritance?

It is a concept that a class(child) inherits the behaviors and properties of

another class(parent).

What is an interface?

Interface defines a set of methods without providing the implementation.

How we instantiate a class?

DATA <OBJECT_NAME> TYPE REF TO <CLASS_NAME>

CREATE OBJECT <OBJECT_NAME>

How to create a constructor?

Define constructor in class definition,

Implement in implementation

METHODS: constructor IMPORTING name TYPE STRING age TYPE I

(DEFINITION)

METHOD constructor.

me->name = name.

me->age = age. (IMPLEMENTATION)

Difference between subroutine and function module?

Subroutine – it has no interface, and it is specific to the program itself.

Function module – it has an interface, and which can be used across multiple
programs.

In how many ways we can pass the parameters?

Two ways

Pass by value and pass by reference

Difference between pass by value and pass by reference?

Pass by reference –, when an argument is passed by reference, the memory

of the variable is passed, and it changes the original variable.

Pass by value - when an argument is passed by value, a copy of original

variable is passed.

What are the types of Function modules?

NORMAL

REMOTE

UPDATED

What are modularization techniques?

Modularization techniques divide the program into modules and increase

readability and maintainability of the code

Ex: subroutines, function modules, include programs and macros

What is BAPI?

BAPI is a Business application programming interface which allows external

systems or applications to interact with the SAP systems.

What are the advantages of BAPI?

Reusability, error handling, data validation, access to SAP business objects,

security

Difference between function modules and BAPI?

Function modules are general procedures which are used within SAP
systems.
BAPI is used to integrate SAP with external systems providing a standardized
and transactional in interface.

What are the types of exits?

User exits

Customer exits – Menu, screen, field and function exits

BADI

Enhancement framework

How do we search for an exit?

User exit – SMOD

Customer exit – SMOD and CMOD for implementing

BADI – SE18 defining or searching, SE19 for implementing

Why smartform is client independent?

Because they generate functional modules which are client independent and
can be accessed globally by any client.

How do we call smart form from driver program?

Using the FM SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME

Difference between template and table?

Templates define how the data looks (layout) while tables store the data
itself.

Template is client independent, stores only formatting details and doesn’t

store any data

Tables are used to store and manipulate data.

What is ERP and its examples?

ERP is a integrated software used to mange different parts of businesses.

An ERP system helps to automate processes by providing a centralized

database and system for managing various business functions.

Examples: SAP, Baan, Peoplesoft by oracle and Microsoft dynamics 365.

What are SAP modules?

FI – financial accounting

CO – Controlling

MM – Material Management

SD – Sales and Distribution

PP – Production Planning

HCM – Human Capital management

WM – Warehouse Management

QM – Quality Management

What is MPP?

Massive Parallel Processing refers to the ability to perform multiple tasks

simultaneously to process large volumes of data efficiently.

What is row storage and column storage?

Row storage – stores data where each row of table is stored together with all
the column values for that row.

Column storage – each columns data is stored separately which means that
the values of a specific column across all rows are stored consecutively in
memory.

What is in-memory computing?

Stores data in RAM rather than on traditional disk storage which results in
processing larger volumes of data at faster speeds.

What is enhancement framework?

What is CDS view?

It is a virtual representation of a table which hold data at the runtime only

and does not exist physically.

It is a code push-down technique with single input and single output.

What are the limitations of CDS views?

Multiple select statements can’t be used

Limited to single input and output

What is the interface used in AMDP?

IF_AMDP_MARKER_HDB

What is AMDP?

It is a optimized code push-down technique which exclusively works on HANA

database.

It is a special class containing interface IF_AMDP_MARKER_HDB.

It supports multiple inputs and gives multiple outputs.

What is the difference between CDS and AMDP?

CDS works on any database and AMDP works only on HANA

CDS – single input and single output

AMDP – multiple inputs and multiple outputs

What are the prerequisites and conditions for AMDP class?

Interface

Parameters must be passed by value only

There are no returning parameters

What is the description used in AMDP method?

METHOD BY DATABASE PROCEDURE FOR LANGUAGE HDB SQLSCRIPT

OPTIONS READ-ONLY USING TABLES.

What is SAP script?

It is a older tool for creating and printing forms within the SAP environment.

What are the two types of migration?

Data Migration and HANATIZATION

Data migration – migration of data from legacy system (non-SAP) to SAP

system.

HANATIZATION – modifying existing SAP ABAP code to leverage HANA

database, i.e., conversion from ECC SAP systems to powerful HANA
database.
