Hi,

<b>Classical Reports:-</b>

These are the most simple reports. Programmers learn this one first. It is just an output of data using the Write statement inside a loop.

Classical reports are normal reports. These reports are not having any sub reports. IT IS HAVING ONLY ONE SCREEN/LIST FOR OUTPUT.

<b>Interactive Reports</b>As the name suggests, the user can Interact with the report. We can have a drill down into the report data. For example, Column one of the report displays the material numbers, and the user feels that he needs some more specific data about the vendor for that material, he can HIDE that data under those material numbers. And when the user clicks the material number, another report (actually sub report/secondary list) which displays the vendor details will be displayed.

Hi John,

BSP has to do with the Web application development in SAP (ABAP). You may go to SE80 and select "BSP Application" from the drop down. You may then search sample BSP applications and read them to understand how the coding looks like. The BSP application consists of BSP pages (somewhat like HTML pages) and have code written on them. The coding language is ABAP and JavaScript (for scripting purpose). Nowadays, you have HTMLB functions which are good reusable templates to minimize common coding.

Once you are through with this pre-development phase you may want to have a look at the MVC (Model View Controller) approach for BSP developments. This is the latest and best way to go ahead with BSP (only if your SAP version allows).

Please go through the links provided to you and they will be very helpful.

Thanks.
