environment in which to develop programs. TCode: SE80

Data Dictionary

This is the main tool used to look at, understand and enhance the Database and Database tables which
are used by the SAP system. You can view standard tables delivered by SAP using this tool, create new
tables and enhance the existing tables delivered by SAP with new fields.

Creating a Table(TCode: SE11)


Table types:
1. Transparent table
2. Pool table
3. Cluster table
In the 'Delivery and Maintenance' tab (which opens by default), look at the 'Delivery class' section, select
the field and then click the drop-down button, where a list of Delivery classes will be shown and
selected:

A: Application table(master & transaction data)

Master data:

Transaction data:

C: Customizing table, maintained only by cust, not SAP import


L: Table for storing temporary data, delivered empty
G: Customizing table, protected against SAP update, only INS all.
E: control table, SAP and Customer have separate key areas
S: System table, maintained only by SAP
W: System table, contents transportable via separate TR objects.
Creating Fields:
Fields, unlike the name of the table, can begin with any letter of the alphabet, not just Z and Y and can
contain up to 16 characters. Tables must include at least one Key field, which is used later for the
searching and sorting of data, and to identify each record as being unique.

Data Elements
Every Field in the table is made up of what is called a Data Element, which defines specific attributes of
each field. The first Field to be created here is an important one within an SAP system, and identifies the
client which the records are associated with. In the Field name, enter 'Client', and in the Data Element,
type 'MANDT'. This Data Element already exists in the system, and after entering it, the system
automatically fills in the Data Type, the Length, Number of Decimals and Short text for the Data Element
itself. Ensure that the 'Client' field is made a Key field in the table by checking the 'Key' box. Field Label is
maintained in data element.
Data Domains

The ‘Definition’ tab opens automatically. The first available field here is 'Data type'. Next, is the
'No. characters' field. In the 'Value range' tab which is visible next to the 'Definition' tab is where
we set valid value ranges for the Domain created. Once this is set, any subsequent user entering
values outside the valid value range will be shown an error message and be requested to enter a
valid entry.
