Use

A field displayed on a page can be named with a field label.
You can choose an application-specific text that describes the field in greater detail as text for the label. If the field is an ABAP data object with a Dictionary reference, a suitable label can be determined from the corresponding elementary Dictionary type with method
GET_FIELD_LABEL. In this way you can standardize the field label of fields with the same type of semantics
