This is an extract/preview of the full course! Here's an overview of all my courses: https://qr1.at/1q53pb
I used a SAP GUI to logon onto the system. The SAP GUI is a frontend tool to access SAP systems. To navigate to the developing environment you can use the classical SAP tree or enter the transaction code, which is the entry point of an application or report.
The ABAP Editor (SE38) is the standard editor to write programs in SAP. Programs in SAP are called reports.
To create a report enter the report type "executable program". New programs have to be in the customer namespace, which starts with the letter Y or Z.
To output some text use the keyword WRITE.
