Of course, you can work with another DB from ABAP - by using Native SQL.

At first, you have to maintain a DB connection in table DBCON as explained here, Native SQL usage is explained here.

It's harder to code, I think and not easy to debug, but it works. I'd prefer to integrate the foreign database into SAP tables, if possible.

If you do have further questions, don't hesitate to ask here.
