Business Add-In - Details

• 
  Key Concepts: 
  Business Add-In (BAdI) is a component of the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) that allows users to customize and extend the functionality of SAP applications. It is a flexible and powerful tool that enables users to create custom programs and add new features to existing SAP applications. BAdIs are used to customize the behavior of an application without changing its source code. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use BAdIs, users must first define the BAdI interface in the ABAP Dictionary. This interface contains the methods that will be used by the BAdI implementation. Once the interface is defined, users can create an implementation class for the BAdI and implement the methods defined in the interface. The implementation class can then be used to customize the behavior of an application. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a BAdI implementation class, it is important to ensure that all methods defined in the interface are implemented correctly. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all parameters passed to the methods are valid and that any changes made by the implementation class do not affect other parts of the application.
