Hello

First, yes, ABAP OOP can be used on real projects, but it always depends on what you want to do.

Then, you could go further with ABAP Cloud and RAP topics

Additionally, you will need to focus on clean core principles. Here is a resource: https://www.sap.com/documents/2022/10/52e0cd9b-497e-0010-bca6-c68f7e60039b.html

In real SAP projects, ABAP OOP is widely used, especially in S/4 HANA, RAP, FIORI and BADI Implementation.

Global classes are used for reusable business logic and framework (Preferred in real projects).
Local classes are used when the logic is specific to one report/program.

So, it depends on the requirement, but enterprise development mostly relies on global classes.

To level up, practice separating business logic into service classes and avoid logic directly in reports.

Best Regard,

Meenakshi.
