FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ABAP Development with SAVIC Technologies.

What is ABAP development in SAP?

ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) is SAP's proprietary programming language used to develop custom applications, reports, interfaces, and enhancements within the SAP environment. ABAP development extends SAP standard functionality to meet specific business requirements that cannot be addressed through standard configuration alone. Modern ABAP development for SAP S/4HANA includes CDS Views, ABAP OOP, RAP (ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model), and ABAP Cloud — enabling clean, upgrade-safe custom solutions on the SAP Business Technology Platform.

What is the difference between classic ABAP and modern ABAP for S/4HANA?

Classic ABAP uses traditional report programming, function modules, and database table access (SELECT statements). Modern ABAP for S/4HANA uses Core Data Services (CDS Views) to push data processing logic to the SAP HANA database layer, ABAP OOP for object-oriented design, the ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model (RAP) for building OData-exposed business objects, and released SAP APIs instead of direct table access. Modern ABAP is more performant on SAP HANA, more upgrade-stable, and aligned with SAP's Clean Core strategy. SAVIC develops using both approaches, with preference for modern ABAP on S/4HANA landscapes.

How does SAVIC ensure ABAP custom code is S/4HANA compatible?

SAVIC uses SAP's ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC) and Custom Code Migration app to analyse all custom ABAP code for S/4HANA compatibility issues — including compatibility scope violations, use of deprecated APIs, direct access to S/4HANA simplified tables, and clean core framework gaps. Our ABAP team remediates identified issues using SAP-endorsed enhancement frameworks, released APIs, and modern ABAP constructs. All new ABAP development for S/4HANA landscapes is built using released APIs and clean core principles from the outset.

What is the ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model (RAP)?

RAP is SAP's modern, recommended framework for building transactional applications and OData services in ABAP Cloud and on-premise S/4HANA. RAP defines Business Objects (BOs) with behavior definitions, CDS-based data models, and ABAP behavior implementations — automatically exposing OData V4 services for SAP Fiori or API consumption. RAP-based developments are upgrade-stable, clean core compliant, and fully integrated with SAP BTP's ABAP environment. SAVIC builds RAP-based extensions for both S/4HANA on-premise and ABAP Cloud on BTP.

Can SAVIC help migrate custom ABAP code from ECC to S/4HANA?

Yes. SAVIC provides end-to-end ABAP code remediation services for SAP ECC to S/4HANA migrations. This includes running the SAP Readiness Check and ABAP Test Cockpit analysis to identify all incompatible code objects, categorizing findings by severity and remediation effort, and executing the remediation through our ABAP development team. SAVIC has handled large-scale custom code remediation programs with thousands of custom objects as part of S/4HANA migration projects.
