Figure 2.1: Transaction SE11 – the SAP ABAP Data Dictionary

The SAP ABAP Data Dictionary provides data to create, modify, test, activate, delete, and copy:

  • Tables
<li>Views</li>

<li>Data types (data elements, structures, and table types)</li>

<li>Type groups</li>

<li>Domains</li>

<li>Search help</li>

<li>Lock objects</li>

In addition, it offers a set of tools for setting the properties of the dictionary objects, their extensions, their uses, and their environmental analyses.
