• Key Concepts: 
  A catchable runtime error is an error that occurs during the execution of an ABAP program. It is a type of runtime error that can be caught and handled by the program itself, rather than causing the program to terminate. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Catchable runtime errors are handled by using the CATCH statement in ABAP. This statement allows the program to catch and handle errors that occur during its execution. The CATCH statement can be used to define a block of code that will be executed when an error occurs, allowing the program to continue running instead of terminating. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the CATCH statement, it is important to ensure that all possible errors are handled correctly. This means that all possible errors should be identified and handled appropriately in order to ensure that the program continues running without any unexpected termination.
