hi,

ABAP dictionary objects are in the database layer

where a part of this database layer is Repository ,

all objects what we create are residing in the repository.

And the data what we insert reside in the database

Hi,

Its like this....

Whatever you create and save all will be saved at DATABASE level... The thing is they are saved at different spaces in DATABASE...

if the thing you are saving is global then it should be saved at DATABASE level only and obviously its saved in database...

any queries still revert back

Hope this may be helpful to you.

Hi Vijay,

The database table is present in the database layer , whereas the implementation of it is present in the application layer as Transparent Table.

I.e ABAP dictionary is in the Application Layer.

hi vijay krishna ,

very interesting question.

The ABAP Dictionary is completely integrated in the ABAP Workbench. This ABAP workbench is a component of ABAP application layer.

so, ABAP Dictionary is in ABAP application layer
