What are hash tables PDF Print E-mail

Hashed tables - This is the most appropriate type for any table where the main operation is key access. You cannot access a hashed table using its index. The response time for key access remains constant, regardless of the number of table entries. Like database tables, hashed tables always have a unique key. Hashed tables are useful if you want to construct and use an internal table, which resembles a database table or for processing large amounts of data.

SAMPLE PROG: THIS DOES NOTHING.

REPORT Z_1 .

TABLES: MARA.

DATA: I TYPE HASHED TABLE OF MARA WITH UNIQUE KEY MATNR

A Binary Tree Implementation in ABAP PDF Print E-mail

This sample code uses dynamic objects to create a binary tree of random numbers. It stores numbers on the left node or right node depending on the value comparison with the current value. There are two recursive subrotines used for the building of the tree and printing  through the tree.

For comparison purpose, the same random numbers are stored and sorted in an internal table and printed.

So, now you've learnt about the structures and you know that SAP uses them to store data in memory, but where the data is coming from?

Unfortunately, SAP data model is mostly undocumented; at least, SAP doesn't provide good public documentation. Learning the data model is hard work that will pay back after several months of sweating with ABAP code, something everyone has to go through.

Something may be given to you as a part of SAP functional training. Something you can get from your colleagues. Sapfans can help a lot. But the rest will be your own experience. The advice below will not always help you to find what you need, there is no magic trick. Learn and never give up.

Data Elements PDF Print E-mail

Data elements are the next step up the tree towards being able to use a domain.

Whereas a domain defines a 'class' of information such as material numbers, or customer names, a data element defines an actual use for that domain.

For example, you may have a material number. You may also have an alternative material number for use when the main material is out of stock. Both of these share the same characteristics but are subtly different. By creating a domain for these as SAP have done and then assigning the various data elements to that domain you can automatically provide for example header texts for your reports.

Data elements are defined again using transaction SE11. Select the radio button labelled Data Type (because that's in essence what they are.....).
