A company is the organizational unit used in the legal consolidation module to roll up financial statements of several company codes. The Company Code is the smallest organizational ! unit for which a complete self-contained set of accounts can be drawn up for purposes of external reporting. How many chart of accounts can be attached to a company code? One or more Operative Chart of Accounts can be assigned to a company code. A COA must be assigned to a company code.

There are lot of materials available in the internet regarding interview questions on ABAP - Technical. Here I have tried to accumulate some of them. These questions are mostly faced by me (When I get interviewed) or asked by me (when I interview others). I made two distinct parts as ’Purely Technical’ and ’Basic Functional’. I feel that some basic functional (read domain) knowledge is also necessary to flourish as a Good Technical Resource. Purely Technical Questions : What is the difference between Explicit Commit and Implicit Commit ? What is the difference between SAP LUW (Logical Unit of Work) and Database LUW ? What is the difference between Internal Session and External Session ? Give Examples What are the work-processes in BASIS Layer ? What are the different types of RFC s? What is the difference between V1 update and V2 Update ? Why does BAPI need explicit commit ? What is the difference between COMMIT and COMMIT WORK AND WAIT statements ? Why we pass parameters in RFC

Step 1: Open Event Trace using transaction code SWEL or following menu path under Tools menu. Step 2: Set the time as current time This will display no event. Step 3: As per requirement open sales document creation screen using transaction code VA01. Create the document and save it. Step 4: Refresh the Event Trace List. Now we can find the Business Object (in this case BUS2032) and the Event (In this case CREATED) triggered during Sales Order Creation. This Business Object and the concerned event are essential to trigger the custom workflow. Note: ‘Name of the Receiver Type’ column shows the existing workflo
