Displaying Object Definitions

If you want to analyze an object more closely, choose the object and Display def. f

If the object is defined in the ABAP Dictionary, you will navigate directly to the ABAP Dictionary display for this object. All other navigation options are available from here. In particular, you can call the Database Utility in order to create the object in the database, or you can use the analysis options provided by the Database Utilities.

It is possible to display the database definition for objects that were created directly in the database. This can be useful, for example, to find out more on the purpose or author of an object.

 

For technical reasons, this function is currently only possible for objects with names of up to ten digits. For a closer examination of objects with longer names, you must use the database utilities.
