Preface – This post is part of the ABAP Programs series.

In ABAP, if you know basic SQL operation to perform CRUD Operations in ABAP report, then this article will teach you multiple ways to perform the same.

Introduction

ABAP report has more often a requirement to perform any of the following operation:

• Create : It means, you add data into a table
• Read : It means, you read data from a table
• Update : It means, you update any data of a table
• Delete : It means, you delete a record from a table

Everything in programming are directly or indirectly performing CRUD operations only. Let’s take example of Facebook.

Whenever anyone create a profile on Facebook, the data of new Facebook ID is added into a table.

Create Operation in Facebook

If you want to see your profile, data is read from the same table.

Read Operation in Facebook

If you want to update your profile, data is updated in the same table.

Update Operation in Facebook

And if, you plan to delete your account permanently, data is deleted from the same table.

Delete Operation in Facebook

You see, here we have performed CRUD operations only.

ABAP Program to perform CRUD Operations

Program Requirement: Create an ABAP report to provide four radio buttons with name Create, Update, Read and Delete. Employee ID input box will be always visible. If Create button is clicked, Input boxes will be available for Employee Details Input. On Save, it will save data in table. If Update button is clicked, Input boxes will be visible with pre-loaded data for the Employee ID. On Update, it will update data in the table. If Read is clicked, the data for the Employee ID will be visible. If delete radio button is clicked, on click of Delete button, data will be deleted.

Some Tables you will need:

Employee Basic Table

Employee Salary Table

Employee Address Table

Code Explanation

In the program mentioned above, we have discussed CRUD operation in ABAP Report. This program has comments wherever required. Still, we will be explaining key points of this program. This program utilizes ABAP Classical Events, do read it here, before proceeding.

• Initially, we have defined Parameters to take input, variables to perform calculation and radio buttons to provide choice selection.
•  AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT: Here we have written conditions such that few input boxes become hidden and other visible according to the condition.
• AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON RADIOBUTTON GROUP rg1 to auto-populate data in parameters.
• START-OF-SELECTION: Here we have written SQL codes to perform Create, Update, Read and Delete according to requirement and condition.
