      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;BLOCKQUOTE level="1"&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;they are both transparent tables&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;
&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Excellent answer, but considering the question I think the poster needs possibly a longer explanation to fully understand and appreciate your answer. I will try to help, so let me start with some necessary definitions:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;
&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;UL style="list-style:square!important"&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;EM&gt;S&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; is the set of all SAP tables&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;UL class="noindent"&gt;&lt;OL&gt;&lt;LI style="list-style: none"&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/OL&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;EM&gt;T&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; is the subset of &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;S&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; of all transparent tables, i.e. &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;T = { t∈S | t is a transparent table }&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;UL class="noindent"&gt;&lt;OL&gt;&lt;LI style="list-style: none"&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/OL&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;EM&gt;R&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; is the relation &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;(S, S, I)&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; with &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;I = { (a,b)∈S×S | a,b∈T }&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;
&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;lt;/ul&amp;gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;
&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;If you look at the relation &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;R&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;, you'll see that it's &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;reflexive&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;, &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;symmetric&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; and &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;transitive&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;. The relation &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;R&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; reveals hidden (or at least non-obvious) links like for example the relation between &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;bkpf&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; (accounting document header) and &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;t143&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; (temperature conditions for storing materials).&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;
&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;This shouldn't come as a surprise though, because SAP is an &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;integrated system&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;. It is amazing how the relation &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;R&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; also  shows the difficulties to achieve full integration: Take for example &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;bkpf&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; and &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;bseg&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; (accounting document segment), which are not in &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;R&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; (note that &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;R&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; is not a &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;EM&gt;total&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; relation). I suspect though that in some future release this issue might be fixed and strongly recommend checking release notes.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;
&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Cheers, harald&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;
&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
