Essential Keyboard Shortcuts in Eclipse ADT
There are many lists of shortcuts for ABAP development in Eclipse ADT. But often they are so long and cluttered that you don't want to print them. Or if you do, you need a magnifying glass. Here are my favorites. Short and relevant. But certainly not complete.
NBSP: The Wrong Space in ABAP
A question just came up in the DSAG forum that I would like to answer here in public and in a way that Google can find. This problem certainly occurs quite often.
"In an internal table, I have content in the rows that the debugger displays in hexadecimal as
A000. The table is created / uploade
You Get What You Pay For
I'm writing this article because of something that just happened. Today I had an interesting conversation with someone from the purchasing department of a potential customer about a training offer. The IT department had named us as their preferred provider, but purchasing had also found a few cheape
Logon to system A4H failed
With the latest BW/4HANA 2023 CAL system, there is an ugly problem: If you want to create a project from Eclipse (aka SAP HANA Studio) using the ADT or the BW Modeling Tools, you get an error message. With the SAP GUI, everything works without any issues.

Our new video series SQLScript Snippets presents individual videos on the topic of SQLScript and SQL. They originate from our for
NULL in CDS ABAP
In SQL, NULL behaves like a black hole. It doesn't follow the "normal" rules of Boolean logic and swallows entire expressions.
And NULL can also arise during the execution of CDS ABAP. But ABAP can't handle it and translates such values into the initial value. That's sometimes handy, but it
Semantic Grouping in BW 7.50
Unfortunately, in BW 7.50 semantic grouping does not work with HANA execution to ensure that all records with the same partial key end up in the same package. But this is sometimes necessary when calculations are performed in our routines. In BW/4HANA this problem no longer exists, see [SAP docu

Using and Combining RAP Prechecks
A very common activity when working with RAP and Fiori Elements is the validation of user input. Unfortunately, validations are always performed only on save, and you often want to give the user feedback earlier - especially when using DRAFT mode. What is the best way to accomplish this? The m
RAP Prechecks in DRAFT Mode
I already wrote a short post on combining prechecks - but when you use prechecks in DRAFT-enabled scenarios, you face a different problem: updates only contain changed fields - how do you deal with that?
First, let's look at the definition. This can be done both at the b

Fiori Elements: "Unsupported OData Version 4.01"
When working with RAP and Fiori Elements, things are usually straightforward - but it can happen that the app stops working for no apparent reason and Fiori Elements displays an error message "Unsupported OData Version 4.01": 
RAP at Breakneck Speed
At ABAPConf 2023, I was asked at rather short notice to fill a presentation slot on the topic of RAP. With the talk "RAP at Breakneck Speed", I wanted to show how you can quickly build a small application with RAP in half an hour. Not entirely clean, but with extremely high development efficiency. T
