Learn SAP ABAP Basics - SAP Training - Learn ABAP Basic Programming and Create Your First Program
This video will take you through the basic steps of creating your first ABAP Program.
To create our first program from SAP GUI you can either key in transaction SE38 or you can navigate to the ABAP Editor through the SAP menu tree.
Click on to Tools, ABAP Workbench, Developments, and then you will see SE38 -- ABAP Editor.
Double click and execute it.
Now just before we create your first ABAP basic program just something to keep in mind.
Try and keep your programs as simple as possible.
Do not make your programs any more complicated than they need to be.
Now I say this because through my many years of experience with SAP more often than not you after pick up somebody else's program, trying understand it and either make it hams mends to it or fix books that have been identified sometime after it has gone life.
And the worst thing in the world is on program seeing hundreds and hundreds if not thousands of lines of code with very few comments and it just takes an absolute age to understand.
Advise you all to keep things really simple.
Add lots of comments into your codes so that anybody else and yourself that comes to look at the program later on can easily understand what the programs doing and the flow of the logic as it executed.
It makes everybody's life just that much easier.
