Part 1

1. What is a client in sap (terms).

ANS - SAP terminology : -Client in SAP is to Individual unit to
identify r/3 system with different DB tables.
2. After developing object where do you test? How do u test?
ANS - Normally I do white box testing for what I develop. To test
the
problem Functional consultant give few sample data for testing.
3. Who else is there with u when u test the program?
ANS - If the error is major take help of TL.
4. If end user comes to saying that there is a bug in the program,
how
do u correct it?
ANS - First I will understand what he is telling then understand the
program. Based on the complexity error in Technical I debug the
program to sort the error and if it is related to functional then I
will sit will the user or my TL.
5. In call transaction method where do we get vendor no when
uploading vendor master? i.e in case of errors.
ANS - IF subrc <> 0. write: / IT.
6. How do we get time in the program? Which time we get either
development server or system time?
ANS - By using system field sy-uziet. For local timlo Zonlo
7. What is data cleansing?
ANS - Means while uploading a flat fieldata into sap system it
should data cleaned i.e. unwanted data to be deleted.
10. How do ur Project leader differentiate ur programs from others
if 3 people from ur group all using the same user id?
ANS - Go to SE10. the the objects in the request where we give the
description for our object.
11. If I am submitted to 4-linked report program to background job.
If 2 reports fails, what happen the result?
1.
3 and 4 report programs are executed or not
2.
it give the 1 report program result or not

12. How can I know the feed back of background job?

ANS - SM37 to see the feedback of the job.
13. If there is a quantity field, currency field in the external
format (from legacy system), what is its equivalent SAP format?
ANS - It depends means if we want to convert it into $ to Rs we can
use a function module which will convert the $ to Rs and Rs will be
saved.
14. What are table buffers?
ANS - This r some think to buffer the data in application server.
Buffer not allowed will buffer data in AS. Data will be fetched
directly from Database server. Buffer switched on means it buffers
data in AP means data is fetched from application Server. Buffer
switched allowed but switched off. Full buffer to store the table
in AP. Generic buffer - It is a comparison of fields i.e. data
retired by the matching record.
15 what back ground processing means actually? i.e. processing in
future date or processing in no display monde or both are
applicable?
ANS - Both r same.
18. From a table how do u find whether a material is used in another
material BOM?
ANS - We have a field in which it will the information of the BOM.
19. How do u find out whether a file exits on the presentation
server?
ANS - There is fun Mod through which we can find whether file exit
in PS or not.
20. Which function module upload data from application server?
ANS - No fun mod is used to upload data to AP. we use open dataset
for output in AS to upload data.
21. Can you have two detail lists from the basic list at the same
time? If yes how and if no why?
ANS - No. Coz sequences goes 1 then 2. if we want we can use windows
starting 10 giving two statements. We can pop up two detail.
22. What is At-Exit and User-Exit?
ANS - it is used as exit button in Module pool.
23.how do u transport scripts from client 100 to 300?

ANS - Go to Utilities-Copy from client. give the form name and then
the
target form and in client the client from which we need. In this
only the form gets copied not the standard symbol, Text then Styles.
To copy the standard symbol go to SE72 - Utilities-Copy. For
standard text go to SO10 -Utilities-Copy. IMPORTANT - Which we
upload tiff file in RSTXLDMC the file uploaded and saved in SO10 in
standard text format i.e. it is stored in bit format. The contents
of so10 r stored in STXH. The graphics for BMP are stored in
SSFXFBMP.
If we need two logos(one in background). RSTXLDMC- upload logo in
sequence i.e. logo1,logo2. Then in form include the ST first logo1
then logo2.
If there is 10 scripts with Standard text will four lines in it. if
we want in 2 scripts only 2 lines to be displayed : - we can do by
coding a logic i.e. go to SO10 there give a logic If <Form name> <>
0. print.
TTDTG is the table where we can create a Zstandard Symbol and it is
where standard symbol is stored.
24. How do u solve table control problem in bdc?.
25. How do u code the program for getting time base on different
country timings?
ANS - By setting the local PC time using the system field TiMLO.
26. If report is run in india and the same report is run in us which
time is accessed by the program?
ANS - By setting the local Pc time using the system field TiMLO.
26. If u save an object as local object then how do u transport
it?.
ANS - If a object is saved in local object it will not give any
request so get the request first change the development class. Go to
SE80 - Right click on the object there will be option More Function
then change package Assignment.
27. Can we use
for one application, for data processing session
method and for data updation call transaction? how? Yes. after we
code call transaction below that give a logic if subrc <> 0 then
open the function module BDC-open, insert, close.

28. How do we keep break points dynamically say a program has 1000
line of code and has 50 function modules then how do we keep
breakpoints to those 50 function modules?
ANS - First set the program to debug mode after we r in debug mode
got to Breakpoint option in menu bar from there go to breakpoint at
- there use statement and use the statement i.e call function or any
subroutine.
29. How to sent error to end user?
Ans - By using the function module(BDCMSGCOLL).

30. What is the difference between ranges and select-options?

Ans
31. For a button in application bar in ALV.
ANS - Yes by using pf-status we can bring buttons in application
bars. Use event pf-status and usercommand from slis and pass it to
gird function.
32. Have u worked on call transaction?
ANS - yes.
33. Can we pass data from one program to another in ALV as well as
in reports?
34. Can we run a three transaction at a time i.e. parallelly and can
we track the error there and there?
Ans : - it is possible to run the transaction one after other and
not parallelly. it is not possible to track the error in Parallel
run. We can use /bend to correct the errors.
35. If we record BDC through SHDB and copy the program in a editor
and execute what will happen?
ANS - It will run the program showing the screen which when went
under recording. i.e it will show all the screens which we used in
SHDB which recording the screens and fields.
36. To change Development Class for Script go to SE03-Object
directory in the field give form(set the flag) and then there give
the form name then double click and give the Class name.
37. To see imported request go to transaction STMS.
to find the fields of a table from which it is used use transaction
se84.

Part 2
What is a 'Z' report?
Y or Z report refer to customized abap programs written for modules such as mm,
sd, pp or fi/co etc.
Can we create an ABAP program without using Y or Z?
No, this is because all non Yor Z programs are standard SAP programs.
1. How data is stored in cluster table?
Each field of cluster table behaves as tables which contains the no. of entries.
2. What are client dependant objects in abap/sap?
SAP Script layout, text element, and some DDIC objects.
3. On which even we can validate the input fields in module progams?
In PAI (Write field statement on field you want to validate, if you want to validate
group of fields put in chain and End chain statement.)
4. In selection screen I have three fields, plant mat no and material group. If I input
plant how do I get the mat no and material group based on plant dynamically?
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR MATERIAL.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST' to get material and
material group for the plant.
5. How do you get output from IDOC?
Data in IDOc is stored in segments, the output from Idoc is obtained by reading the
data stored in its respective segments.
6. When top of the page event is triggered?
After excuteing first write statement in start-of-selection event.
7. Can we create field without data element and how?
In SE11 one option is available above the fields strip. Data element/ direct type.
8. How do we debug sapscript?
Go to SE71 give lay set name , go to utilities select debugger mode on.
9. Which transaction code can I used to analyze the performance of ABAP
program.
TCode AL21.
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'?

Part 3
1. What is the typical structure of an ABAP/4 program?
ANS:HEADER ,BODY,FOOTER.
2. What are field symbols and field groups.?
Have you used "component idx of structure" clause with field groups?
ANS:Field symbols:Field groups :Can any body explain me what is field group?
Field groups are groups similar fields together into one name. Field group works in
conjuction with
INSERT f1 f2 INTO fg
EXTRACT fg
SORT BY fg
LOOP ... ENDLOOP
INSERT f1 f2 INTO fg
--------------------The insert statement is used to create a field group dynamically by inserting the
field into it. Only global data fields can be inserted and not local data fields eg : in
form modules.
EXTRACT fg
---------This will combine all the fields in the fieldgroup and write them to a sequential
dataset as a single record.
SORT BY fg
---------Sorting of sequential dataset by field group.
LOOP AND ENDLOOP

3. What should be the approach for writing a BDC program?
ANS: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).
4. What is a batch input session?
ANS: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.
5. What is the alternative to batch input session?
ANS:Call transaction.
6. 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?
ANS:go to SM36 and create background job by giving
job name,job class and job steps (JOB SCHEDULING)
8. What are the problems in processing batch input sessions?
How is batch input process different from processing online?
ANS: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.
10. What are the different types of data dictionary objects?
ans:tables, structures, views, domains, data elements, lock objects, Matchcode objects.
11. How many types of tables exists and what are they in data dictionary?
ans :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 opensql).They are not managable directly using database system tools.
iv)Internal tables - .
12. What is the step by step process to create a table in data dictionary?
ans: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).
13. Can a transparent table exist in data dictionary but not in the data base
physically?
ANS:- 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.
14. What are the domains and data elements?
ANS: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.
15. Can you create a table with fields not referring to data elements?
ANS:YES. eg:- ITAB LIKE SPFLI.here we are referening to a data object(SPFLI) not
data element.
16. What is the advantage of structures? How do you use them in the ABAP
programs?
ANS:Adv:- GLOBAL EXISTANCE(these could be used by any other program without
creating it again).
17. What does an extract statement do in the ABAP program?
ANS: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 <fg>.
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
<fg>, the structure of the corresponding extract record in the extract dataset is
fixed. You can no longer insert new fields into the field groups <fg> 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.
18. What is a collect statement? How is it different from append?
ANS:If an entry with the same key already exists, the COLLECT statement does not
append a new line, but adds the contents of the numeric fields in the work area to
the contents of the numeric fields in the existing entry.
19. What is open sql vs native sql?
ANS:- by Madhukar
Open SQL , native SQL are the interfaces to create the database applicatons.
Open SQL is consistant across different types of existing Databases.
Native SQL is the database language specific to database.Its API is specific to the
databse.
Open SQL API is consistent across all vendors
20. What does an EXEC SQL stmt do in ABAP? What is the disadvantage of using
it?
ANS:21. What is the meaning of ABAP/4 editor integrated with ABAP/4 data dictionary?
ANS:22. What are the events in ABAP/4 language?
ANS:Initialization, At selection-screen,Start-of-selection,end-of-selection,top-of-page,endof-page, At line-selection,At user-command,At PF,Get,At New,At LAST,AT END,
AT FIRST.
23. What is an interactive report?
What is the obvious diff of such report compared with classical type reports?
ANS:An Interactive report is a dynamic drill down report that produces the list on users
choice.
diff:a) THE LIST PRODUCED BY CLASSICAL REPORT DOESN'T allow user to
interact with the system
the list produced by interactive report allows the user to interact with the system.
b) ONCE A CLASSICAL REPORT EXECUTED USER LOOSES CONTROL.IR
USER HAS CONTROL.

c) IN CLASSICAL REPORT DRILLING IS NOT POSSIBLE.IN INTERACTIVE

DRILLING IS POSSIBLE.
24. What is a drill down report?
ANS:Its an Interactive report where in the user can get more relavent data by selecting
explicitly.
25. How do you write a function module in SAP? describe.
ANS:creating function module:called program - se37-creating funcgrp,funcmodule by assigning
attributes,importing,exporting,tables,exceptions.
calling program - SE38-in pgm click pattern and write function name- provide
export,import,tables,exception values.
26. What are the exceptions in function module?
ANS:COMMUNICATION_FAILURE
SYSTEM_FAILURE
27. What is a function group?
ANS:GROUP OF ALL RELATED FUNCTIONS.
28. How are the date and time field values stored in SAP?
ANS:DD.MM.YYYY. HH:MM:SS
30. Name a few data dictionary objects? //rep//
ANS:TABLES,VIEWS,STRUCTURES,LOCK OBJECTS,MATCHCODE OBJECTS.
31. What happens when a table is activated in DD?
ANS:It is available for any insertion,modification and updation of records by any user.
32. What is a check table and what is a value table?
Check table will be at field level checking.
Value table will be at domain level checking ex: scarr table is check table for carrid.
33. What are match codes? describe?
ans:It is a similar to table index that gives list of possible values for either primary keys
or non-primary keys.
34. What transactions do you use for data analysis?
ANS:35. What is table maintenance generator?
ANS:36. What are ranges? What are number ranges?
ANS:max,min values provided in selection screens.
37. What are select options and what is the diff from parameters?
ANS:select options provide ranges where as parameters do not.

SELECT-OPTIONS declares an internal table which is automatically filled with

values or ranges
of values entered by the end user. For each SELECT-OPTIONS , the system creates
a selection table.
SELECT-OPTIONS <SEL> FOR <field>.
A selection table is an internal table with fields SIGN, OPTION, LOW and HIGH.
The type of LOW and HIGH is the same as that of <field>.
The SIGN field can take the following values: I Inclusive (should apply) E Exclusive
(should not apply)
The OPTION field can take the following values: EQ Equal GT Greater than NE
Not equal BT Between LE Less
than or equal NB Not between LT Less than CP Contains pattern GE Greater than
or equal NP No pattern.
diff:PARAMETERS allow users to enter a single value into an internal field within a
report.
SELECT-OPTIONS allow users to fill an internal table with a range of values.
For each PARAMETERS or SELECT-OPTIONS statement you should define text
elements by choosing
Goto - Text elements - Selection texts - Change.
Eg:- Parameters name(30).
when the user executes the ABAP/4 program,an input field for 'name' will appear on
the selection screen.You can change the comments on the left side of the input fields
by using text elements as described in Selection Texts.
38. How do you validate the selection criteria of a report?
And how do you display initial values in a selection screen?
ANS:validate :- by using match code objects.
display :- Parameters <name> default 'xxx'.
select-options <name> for spfli-carrid.
39. What are selection texts?
ANS:40. What is CTS and what do you know about it?
ANS: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.
For practical information on working with the Change and Transport System, see
Change and Transport Organizer and Transport Management System.

41. When a program is created and need to be transported to prodn does selection
texts always go with it? if not how do you make sure? Can you change the CTS
entries? How do you do it?
ANS:42. What is the client concept in SAP? What is the meaning of client independent?
ANS:43. Are programs client dependent?
ANS:Yes.Group of users can access these programs with a client no.
44. Name a few system global variables you can use in ABAP programs?
ANS:SY-SUBRC,SY-DBCNT,SY-LILLI,SY-DATUM,SY-UZEIT,SY-UCOMM,SYTABIX.....
SY-LILLI IS ABSOLUTE NO OF LINES FROM WHICH THE EVENT WAS
TRIGGERED.
45. What are internal tables? How do you get the number of lines in an internal
table?
How to use a specific number occurs statement?
ANS:i)It is 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 reorganising the contents of database tables according to users need.
ii)using SY-DBCNT.
iii)The number of memory allocations the system need to allocate for the next record
population.
46. How do you take care of performance issues in your ABAP programs?
Performance of ABAPs can be improved by minimizing the amount of data to be
transferred.
The data set must be transferred through the network to the applications, so
reducing the amount OF time and also reduces the network traffic.
Some measures that can be taken are:
- Use views defined in the ABAP/4 DDIC (also has the advantage of better
reusability).
- Use field list (SELECT clause) rather than SELECT *.
- Range tables should be avoided (IN operator)
- Avoid nested SELECTS.
i)system tools
ii)field symbols and field groups.
ans:Field Symbols : Field symbols are placeholders for existing fields. A Field Symbol
does not physically reserve space for a field,but points to a field which is not known
until runtime of the program.
eg:- FIELD-SYMBOL <FS> [<TYPE>].

Field groups : A field group combines several fields under one name.At runtime,the
INSERT command is used to define which data fields are assigned to which field
group.
There should always be a HEADER field group that defines how the extracted data
will be sorted,the data is sorted by the fields grouped under the HEADER field
group.
47. What are datasets?
ANS:The sequential files(ON APPLICATION SERVER) are called datasets. They are
used for file handling in SAP.
48. How to find the return code of a statement in ABAP programs?
ANS:Using function modules.
49. What are interface/conversion programs in SAP?
ANS :
CONVERSION : LEGACY SYSTEM TO FLAT FILE.
INTERFACE : FLAT FILE TO SAP SYSTEM.
50. Have you used SAP supplied programs to load master data?
51. What are the techniques involved in using SAP supplied programs?
Do you prefer to write your own programs to load master data? Why?
52. What are logical databases? What are the advantages/disadvantages of logical
databases?
ANS: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.
adv:The programmer need not worry about the primary key for each table.Because
Logical database knows how the different tables relate to each other,and can issue
the SELECT command with proper where clause to retrieve the data.
i)An easy-to-use standard user interface.
ii)check functions which check that user input is complete,correct,and plausible.
iii)meaningful data selection.
iv)central authorization checks for database accesses.
v)good read access performance while retaining the hierarchical data view
determined by the application logic.
disadv: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).
53. What specific statements do you using when writing a drill down report?
ans:AT LINE-SELECTION,AT USER-COMMAND,AT PF.

in relation to these?
57. Is a logical database a requirement/must to write an ABAP/4 query?
59. What are Change header/detail tables? Have you used them?
60. What do you do when the system crashes in the middle of a BDC batch session?
ans:we will look into the error log file (SM35).
61. What do you do with errors in BDC batch sessions?
ANS:We look into the list of incorrect session and process it again. To correct incorrect
session we analyize the session to determine which screen and value produced the
error.For small errors in data we correct them interactively otherwise
modify batch input program that has generated the session or many times even the
datafile.
62. How do you set up background jobs in SAP? What are the steps? What are the
event driven batch jobs?
ans:go to SM36 and create background job by giving job name,job class and job
steps(JOB SCHEDULING)
63. Is it possible to run host command from SAP environment? How do you run?

ans:control commands,system commands,
70. What is output determination?
71. What are IDOCs?
ans:IDOCs are intermediate documents to hold the messages as a container.
72. What are screen painter? menu painter? Gui status? ..etc.
ans:dynpro - flow logic + screens.
menu painter GUI Status - It is subset of the interface elements(title bar,menu bar,standard tool

bar,push buttons) used for a certain screen.

The status comprises those elements that are currently needed by the transaction.
73. What is screen flow logic? What are the sections in it? Explain PAI and PBO.
ans:The control statements that control the screen flow.
PBO - This event is triggered before the screen is displayed.
PAI - This event is responsible for processing of screen after the user enters the data
and clicks the pushbutton.
74. Overall how do you write transaction programs in SAP?
ans:Create program-SE93-create transcode-Run it from command field.
75. Does SAP has a GUI screen painter or not? If yes what operating systems is it
available on? What is the other type of screen painter called?
76. What are step loops? How do you program pagedown pageup in step loops?
ans:step loops are repeated blocks of field in a screen.
77. Is ABAP a GUI language?
ANS:Yes.
ABAP IS AN EVENT DRIVEN LANGUAGE.
78. Normally how many and what files get created when a transaction program is
written?
What is the XXXXXTOP program?
ans:ABAP/4 program.
DYNPRO
79. What are the include programs?
ANS:When the same sequence of statements in several programs are to be written
repeadly they are coded in include programs (External programs) and are included
in ABAP/4 programs.
