Why we create data element in table creation, if we can create data element by using predefined tab in table?
Than what is the use of data elements creation in table when we can use pre defined tab.

Hi Vivek,
It is not recommended to use predefined tab in the table for a complex business fields context. Let say you have a field Name which you can use the string data type in predefined tab. This is just a name you need not to create a DE for this, but when you have the situation to use complex characteristics fields then you should go for DE.
Applications of Data elements:
- You can able to create elementary data type ( domain , predefined data type ) as well as reference data type ( Class , Interface )
- You can provide field labels which has short, medium and long characteristics business content to display in the screens and selection screens
- Search help ( F4 / input help ) can also be appended with the DE
- You can assign GET/SET Parameter id for the field
- You can set a default name for your fields
