Hi,

Logical Data Base(LDB) is one method of fetching data from database tables like SQL(Select statement), using GET and GET LATE commands.

Still these LDB's are used now-a-days. Especially in HR we use the LDB's(PNP) now also to a great extent.

LDB is a method of fetching data from database tables using GET and GET LATE commands.

These are very much useful and also been used nowadays....Most of the FI & HR related reports are driven by LDB. This has high performance compared to select statements.

1. A logical database is in fact

a program only.

2. This LDB provides two main things :

a) a pre-defined selection screen

which handles all user inputs and validations

b) pre defined set of data

based upon the user selection.

3. So we dont have to worry about from

which tables to fetch data.

4. Moreover, this LDB Program,

handles all user-authorisations

and is efficient in all respects.

5. tcode is SLDB.

Hello,

As mentioned LDB's are programs which fetch data. LDB's are still used . they are not obsolete. Especially in HR and even in FI-TR LDB's are extensively used.
