ABAP Managed Database Procedures in Release 7.40, SP05

ABAP Managed Database Procedures (AMDP) is a framework that was introduced in Release 7.40, SP05, which allows you to manage and call stored procedures or database procedures as AMDP procedures. In the first expansion phase, database procedures programmed in SQLScript are supported in the SAP HANA database.

Other versions: ~~7.31~~ | 7.40 | 7.54

Modification 1

Tag Interface for AMDP Classes

The new tag interface IF_AMDP_MARKER_HDB flags a class as a AMDP class, which can contain AMDP methods for SAP HANA database.

Modification 2

Implementation of AMDP Methods

The new addition BY DATABASE PROCEDURE FOR HDB LANGUAGE SQLSCRIPT for statement METHOD converts a method of an AMDP class to an AMDP method. This is not implemented in ABAP. Instead it is implemented in language SQLScript of SAP HANA database. The ABAP runtime environment creates a corresponding database procedure in SAP HANA database. This procedure is executed when the AMDP method is called.
