SAP ABAP

Creating a learning path for SAP ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) requires a progression from fundamental syntax to modern cloud-based development.

Module 1: SAP Overview & ABAP Fundamentals

SAP Architecture: Understanding the R/3 and S/4HANA architecture and where ABAP fits in.

Development Environment: Setting up and using ABAP Development Tools (ADT) in Eclipse and the traditional SAP GUI.

Basic Syntax: Data types, variables, control structures (IF/CASE, loops), and basic operators.

Modularization: Introduction to subroutines, function modules (SE37), and macros.

Module 2: ABAP Dictionary (DDIC) & Data Management

DDIC Objects: Creating and managing Tables, Views, Data Elements, and Domains using transaction SE11.

Internal Tables: Working with standard, sorted, and hashed tables, field symbols, and work areas.

Open SQL: Retrieving and manipulating database data using ABAP SQL.

Module 3: Reports & User Interfaces

Classical & Interactive Reports: Creating selection screens and handling basic list outputs.

ALV (ABAP List Viewer): Building advanced grid reports with event handling and field catalogs.

Module Pool Programming: Designing screens (SE51), menus, and handling user actions (PAI/PBO).

Module 4: Forms & Data Transfer

SAP Forms: Designing documents using SmartForms and Adobe Forms.

Data Migration (BDC): Using Batch Data Communication (Session and Call Transaction methods) for bulk data upload.

BAPI & Enhancements: Using Business APIs and implementing User Exits or BADIs for system customization.

Module 5: Modern ABAP & Cloud Development

ABAP Objects (OOP): Shifting to object-oriented programming (classes, methods, inheritance).

ABAP on HANA: Optimizing code for HANA using CDS Views and AMDP (ABAP Managed Database Procedures).

RAP (RESTful ABAP Programming): Developing modern Fiori-based applications for SAP BTP or S/4HANA Cloud.
