Prerequisites

A table can be deleted in the ABAP Dictionary when it is no longer used in any other objects (for example views or programs).

Procedure
  1. Open the Repository Browser (transaction code SE80) and navigate to the table which you want to delete.
  2. In the context menu of the table, choose the Where-Used List to check if the table is still used in programs or other objects of the ABAP Dictionary.
  3. In the context menu of the table, choose Delete.

    A dialog box appears in which you are asked to confirm the deletion request. This dialog box tells you if the table still contains data.

  4. Confirm the deletion request.
Result

The table is now deleted if it is not being used in other objects of the ABAP Dictionary.
