Hi Bramara,

TYPE-POOLS tp

Type-pools are used to declare a type pool to be used in the program.The specified type pool should already exists in the ABAP DICTONARY(SE11) .Once the type pool has been declared we can use any of the constants and types declared in that type pool.

TYPE-POOL tp

Type-pool statement is used to create a type group in the ABAP dictionary.It is the first statement in the definition.The type group is used to declare constants and types and these must begin with the name of the type pool and underscore.

e.g. TYPE-POOL owntypes.

TYPES num TYPE P DECIMALS 2.

TYPES name(14) TYPE C.

To use these types in the abap program we have to use the statement

TYPE-POOLS .

e.g. TYPE-POOLS owntypes.

DATA customer TYPE owntypes_num.

DATA name TYPE owntypes_name.

see in se11.

in this we can create our own datatypes..

we can reuse these data types..

we hav predefined typegroups..like slis etc..

go to se11 and create a type group. and define few data types in it.

for use these data types in other programs.

u hav to define

type-pools: <typegroupname>.

data: usr_data type <typegroupname>-<datatype>

Type-pools are used to declare a type pool to be used in the program.The specified type pool should already exists in the ABAP DICTONARY(SE11) .Once the type pool has been declared we can use any of the constants and types declared in that type pool.

You need to use the following code to use type pools:

TYPE-POOLS .

e.g. TYPE-POOLS owntypes.

DATA customer TYPE owntypes_num.

DATA name TYPE owntypes_name.

Go to Se11.

In the type group field,press an F4 to get type pools.
