Every business documents consists of following 2 components:

 layout (template)
 print program.
(Note: in general enterprise business more than 200+ business documents are used.)
SAP has identified most commonly used business documents and provided standard layouts and print
programs for them in the system.
Role of ABAP developer:

 80% : to modify existing layouts and print programs.
 20% : to develop new layouts and print programs.
Methods to generate SAP business documents:

 sapscripts (traditional method)
 smart forms (available since release 4.6c onwards)
ABAPer’s tasks:
 to develop new layout and print program.
 to modify existing layout.

LOGICAL DATABASES (LDB):
SASIDHAR 9963855143

ABAP Lab-Guide
Definition: Logical Databases (LDBs) are special ABAP programs that retrieve data and make it available
to application programs.
A) the most common use of LDBs is to read data from different database tables by linking them to
executable ABAP programs.
PRG 1
PRG 2 LDB DATA BASE
PRG 3
instead of programs interacts directly with databases, they interacts with logical databases.
b) in sap, ldbs are extensively used in HR-modules. (info-type) (hr-abap).
c) ldbs contain open sql statements that read data from the databases, so we there fore use sql statements in
or programs.
d) the ldb reads the program, stores in the program if necessary, and then passes them line by line to the
application program.
e) the data structure in a logical database is hierarchial.
f) many tables in the r/3 system are linked to each other using foreign key relation ships.
g) some of these dependencies form tree-like hierarchical structures.
h) logical databases read from database tables that are part of them structures.
tasks of logical databases: -

- reading the same data for several programs.
- defining the same user interface for several programs.
- improving performance.
a logical data base is made up of 3 components.
1* structure:
the structure defines the data view of the logical database.
2* selections:
the selections dfine a selection screen, which forms the user interface of the executable programs that
use the logical databases. it’s layout usually determined by a structure.
3* database program:
the data base program contains the abap statements used to read the data and pass it to the user of the
logical database.
we need to define only structure, the rest of two (selections & database program) are auto-generated by the
system.

15 Now you can insert, modify , delete data in your table ZAJDEPT [see step-1]
BDC: (Batch Data Communication) is used to MIGRATE data from SAP to SAP system or from a non-
SAP legacy-system to SAP system.
Different methods of BDC are:
(a) Call-Transaction - method

(b) Session - method
(c) LSMW (Legacy System Migration Workbench) - tool
In all the above methods you have to prepare a flat file containing the data in the required format to be
uploaded to the SAP system. You need to call the function ' UPLOAD' to do this. Then the contents of the
flat file have to copied to your internal table and then u need to call the transaction through which you want
to update the database. You internal table should also have the information relating to the structure
BDCDATA which is having the details like the module pool program name, screen no. The basic concept of
updating the database is same in all the 3 methods but only the method differs.
In session method after the data transfer program is coded, in order to process that particular session you
have to go to TC: SM 35 to process the session.
BDC: Call-Transaction – method (migrate data from text file ‘c:\my.txt’ to table LFA1)
Steps Action
Note: to avoid obstacle during data migration process remember the following points..
a) view the destination table(LFA1) data before data migration [using SE16. see step-37]
b) for example, if the last record data in table:LFA1, field:LIFNR(vendor code) is 1600, then the
first value of the same field in data file ‘C:\MY.TXT’ should be 1602 (1600+2).
c) during recording process a set of data is entered through the screen, which also gets
inserted into the same table (LFA1). Ensure that LIFNR(vendor code) value during screen-
recording is given as 1601 (1600+1) [see step-6] and the same value does not exist in table LFA1.
d) there should not be any duplicate data in LIFNR (it is a primary field with unique data)
** create data file:

BDC: LSMW (Legacy System Migration Workbench) - tool
The LSMW comprises the following main steps:

 Read data (legacy data in spreadsheet tables and/or sequential files).
 Convert data (from the source into the target format).
 Import data (to the database used by the R/3 application).
But, before these steps, you need to perform following steps :
 Define source structure : structure of data in the source file.
 Define target structure : structure of SAP that receives data.
 Field mapping: Mapping between the source and target structure with conversions, if any.
 Specify file: location of the source file

- IDOCs are data containers

- IDOCs are text fields in a specific format as specified by ANSI or ‘EDIFACT’
- IDOCs are exchanged between 2 business systems that can understand and
process IDOCs
- IDOCs are used in ALE and EDI integration
- IDOC types are: a) designed components or, b) templates
- IDOCs are runtime components available only during execution
- IDOCs are used to exchange data for ALE
- IDOCs are used to exchange data for EDI
- IDOCs are runtime objects instantiated from the IDOC TYPEs
