Answer / lokesh
Data definitons (metadata) are created and managed
in the ABAP dictionary. The ABAP Dictionary permits a
central Description of all the data used in the system
without redundancies. New or modified information is
automatically provided for all the system components. This
ensures data integrity , data consistency and data security.
you can create the corresponding objects(tables or
views)in the underlying relational database using these data
definitions.The ABAP dictionary therefore describes the
logical structure of the objects used in application
development and shows how they are mapped to the
underlaying relation database in tables or views
