• Key Concepts: 
  A comment in SAP is a piece of text that can be added to a program, report, or other object to provide additional information. It is not part of the program code and does not affect the execution of the program. Comments are used to explain the purpose of a program or report, provide instructions for use, or document changes made to the code.
  
  How to Use it: 
  Comments can be added to any ABAP program or report in the BC-ABA ABAP Runtime Environment. To add a comment, type “*” followed by the text of the comment. The comment will be visible in the source code and will be ignored by the system when executing the program.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When adding comments to a program, it is important to make sure that they are clear and concise. Long comments can make it difficult to read and understand the code. It is also important to keep comments up-to-date as changes are made to the code.
