Background documentation Sequential Search Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

In principle, every search can be performed sequentially across the entire table, row by row. This is necessary in the following cases:

·        No search condition has been specified.

·        No search condition is specified for key columns or for inverted columns.

If the possible non-sequential search strategies would be more costly than the sequential search, the table is processed sequentially.
