DEFINING DATABASE ldb

Effect

This addition shows that the current program is the database program of the logical database ldb. The name of this logical database has a maximum length of 20 characters. Logical databases are maintained with the tool Logical Database Builder of the ABAP Workbench, in which the framework program is generated automatically including the statement REPORT. The name of the framework program is SAPDBldb.

Example

Introduction of the logical database F1S.

REPORT sapdbf1s DEFINING DATABASE f1s.
