This document provides a comprehensive guide to SAP enhancement techniques, detailing methods for customizing standard SAP applications without modifying the original core code. Enhancements in SAP refer to mechanisms like Customer Exits, User Exits, Business Add-Ins (BADIs), and the Enhancement Framework, which allow developers to insert custom logic or add fields and functionalities at predefined points within standard SAP programs, ensuring these customizations are preserved during system upgrades. The document explains how to find, implement, and manage these different types of enhancements.

AMDP for ABAP Developers: A Practical Guide
This document, created by Siva Satya Sai Vanapallli, provides a comprehensive overview of ABAP Managed Database Procedures (AMDP) within SAP HANA-based systems. ABAP Managed Database Procedures (AMDP) are ABAP methods containing SQLScript code that are executed directly within the SAP HANA database. AMDPs are used for performance optimization by pushing data-intensive logic to the database level, leveraging HANA’s capabilities, and are managed within the ABAP environment using ABAP classes as containers.
AMDP in SAP S4HANA: A to Z Procedural Guide
This document, created by Bantee Kumar, is a comprehensive guide on ABAP-Managed Database Procedures (AMDPs) in the context of S/4HANA. AMDPs allow developers to push down complex calculations, aggregations, and data manipulations from the ABAP layer to the database layer, leveraging the full potential of the SAP HANA database. This approach offers significant performance benefits, especially when dealing with large datasets, and enables the utilization of native SAP HANA capabilities such as advanced SQL Script functions, text search, spatial operations, and predictive algorithms.

IDoc Basics for SAP functional Consultants
This PDF document provides an overview of IDoc basics tailored for SAP functional consultants. IDocs (Intermediate Documents) are electronic messages used to exchange business data between SAP and non-SAP systems. The document covers the following key areas:
- Understanding IDoc Concepts: Defining IDocs and their purpose, differentiating between inbound and outbound flows, and the usage of EDI subsystems vs ALE.
- IDoc Structure and Components: Examining the structure of an IDoc, including the control record, data records, and status records stored in database tables.
- IDoc Types and Message Types: Explaining IDoc types, message types, and how they correlate for different scenarios.
- Partner Profiles: Configuration of partner profiles for IDoc communication, including ports and logical system names.
- Processing and Monitoring: Lifecycle and status monitoring of IDocs using common transaction codes like WE02, WE05 etc.
- Mapping and Transformation: Overview of mapping between source systems and SAP IDocs and key data elements.
- Integration with SAP Modules: Usage of IDocs in SD, MM, FI etc. and relevant IDoc types.
- Error Handling and Reprocessing: Managing errors, reprocessing failed IDocs, and techniques for troubleshooting.
The document aims to provide functional consultants with a solid grasp of IDoc concepts and key knowledge areas needed to handle IDoc-related matters in SAP projects and support.
Introduction to BADIs in SAP For Technical & Functional Consultants
This document provides an introduction to BADIs (Business Add-Ins) in SAP and how to implement them. It serves as a good reference for both technical and functional consultants.
Key topics covered in the document are:
- Introduction to BADIs – Explains what BADIs are and how they allow custom code to be added without modifying standard SAP code.
- Comparison to User Exits – Compares BADIs to traditional User Exits. BADIs are more modern and object-oriented.
- BADI Definition – Covers the components of a BADI definition including the interface methods.
- Implementing a BADI – Steps through how to create a BADI implementation and add custom code to the interface methods.
- How BADIs Work – Explains how the custom code in the BADI methods is executed by being called from the standard SAP program.
In summary, this document provides a primer on BADIs and their implementation in SAP ABAP. It covers the BADI definition, creating an implementation, adding custom code, and how that code integrates with SAP standard programs.
