ABAP SQL
ABAP SQL is the umbrella term for a subset of SQL realized using
ABAP statements, including the
DML part. The ABAP SQL statements use the
ABAP SQL interface of the
database interface to access an
AS ABAP database. ABAP SQL can be used to read
(SELECT) and modify
(INSERT,
UPDATE,
MODIFY, or DELETE) data in
database tables defined in
ABAP Dictionary. Database tables,
views, and all non-abstract
CDS entities can be accessed directly.
