20 Uses for ABAP on BW Projects  :

ABAP programmers who are familiar with BW will be assets to most projects. However, their focus, with a few exceptions, will move from report creation to data preparation and preprocessing functions. Figure  (below) shows areas within the standard BW architecture where you might use ABAP:
  • Six places during extraction, including creating custom DataSources, enhancing DataSources, and data selection in InfoPackages
  • Six places during staging, including currency/units of measure conversions, transfer routines, and update rules
  • Four places during reporting, including generating system-entered variables and the report/report interface
You also have four other opportunities in BW to use ABAP: Open Hub Service transformations, building authorization values, process chains, and virtual InfoCubes with services

That's a total of 20 ways you can use ABAP to enhance the operation and utility of your BW system.
