SAP ABAP on HANA Training for Beginners (Udemy.com)

All SAP products are moving to SAP HANA, this demands SAP ABAP NetWeaver Application Server to leverage the features and capabilities of the SAP HANA database. ABAP for SAP HANA refers to all developments that leverage the power of SAP HANA within ABAP applications. In this course, the instructor introduces you to the fundamental skills needed to understand  ABAP development for SAP HANA programming concepts and start creating your own ABAP for HANA programs. This course focuses on learning through a hands-on approach and is packed full of step-by-step examples. Anyone can join the course with basic knowledge of ABAP programming.  

There are mainly 3 roles in SAP HANA from the developer's point of view.

1. SAP HANA native developer

             Main skills required: HANA modeling Attribute, Analytic and Calculation views, Native HANA SQL Scripting

2. SAP ABAP development for HANA

             Main skills required: ABAP, ABAP CDS Views, AMDP procedures

3. SAP UI5 FIORI

             Main skills required: SAPUI5, JavaScript, CSS, HTML5.

Note:

The main objective of the course is to provide skills in ABAP development for SAP HANA; hence, it does not cover any SAP HANA modelling or SAP UI5 development concepts. The course explains the SAP HANA database's basic features relevant to ABAP development for SAP HANA.

Areas covered in this course are

1. SAP HANA basic features

2. Code to Data Paradigm

3. ABAP Development Tools ( ADT ) for Eclipse

4. Core Data Services ( CDS ) Views

5. CDS view Entity

6. CDS Built-in Functions

7. ABAP-managed database procedure ( AMDP )

8. ABAP Database Connectivity ( ADBC )

9. ALV with Integrated Data Access ( ALV IDA )

10. VDM Virtual Data Model

11. Building SAP Fiori application using ABAP Programming Model for Fiori

12.  Building SAP Fiori application using ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model (RAP)

13. SAP BTP Business Technology Platform

14. Instance creation of trial ABAP Environment in BTP

15. SAP ABAP New syntax 7.40 and 7.50

16. AI for ABAP Development

Course features

9. Topic-wise Interview questions and answers

The course makes it so easy to learn ABAP for HANA that you will be building and testing out your code in no time. The course is delivered in such a way that any ABAPer who takes the course will have absolutely no problem understanding all the topics discussed. This course focuses on learning through a hands-on approach and is packed full of step-by-step examples.

The instructor believes that doing hands-on without knowing the theory is half learning. Hence, in this course, he will cover all necessary theories related to SAP HANA and ABAP for HANA before starting the hands-on sessions. You will learn by watching the author perform the operation he is instructing as he explains how to create programs step by step.

The instructor knows your time is precious and hence delivers information straight to the point. The complexity of topics will gradually increase hence, it is advised to watch videos the way they are arranged. You will be provided with all program codes discussed in the hands-on sessions.

We will help you configure the 30-day free trial ABAP system with the HANA database on the SAP cloud platform and install the Eclipse-based ABAP Development Tool (ADT) to develop CDS views and AMDP procedures. The trial period can be further extended up to 90 days.

Please note,

The trial ABAP system is optimized for cloud usage; therefore, not all the features of an on-premise ABAP system are available. For example, SAP GUI and ABAP report programs are not available since screen processing is not suitable for cloud operations.

We have used a proper on-premise ABAP system with a HANA database and not a trial ABAP system for the explanations of all the practice examples discussed in this course. It's recommended to use a proper on-premise ABAP system with the HANA database, but if you don't have such a system, as a secondary option, you can use a free trial ABAP system on the SAP cloud platform.

To make the best of this course:

1. Get access to an ABAP on the HANA system and practice on it

2. Answer quiz questions for self-evaluation

3. Follow the order in which lectures are arranged

4. Based on the title, feel free to skip certain parts

5. Use the given code for fast and correct results
