Pooled table
Before Release 7.53, table category of a database table in ABAP Dictionary. A pooled table did not exist as a table instance on the database. Instead, multiple pooled tables were saved in a table pool in the database. Only ABAP SQL could be used to access pooled tables. Certain other restrictions also applied. Pooled tables are not longer supported from Release 7.53. Any existing pooled tables were transformed to transparent tables.
