• Key Concepts: 
  Data reference is a feature of the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) that allows users to access data from different sources. It enables users to access data from different systems, databases, and applications without having to write complex code. Data references can be used to access data from external sources such as SAP HANA, SAP Business Warehouse, and other third-party systems.
  
  How to use it: 
  Data references can be used in ABAP programs to access data from external sources. To create a data reference, the user must first define the source of the data and then specify the fields that should be accessed. The user can then use the data reference in an ABAP program to access the data.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a data reference, it is important to ensure that the fields specified are correct and that the source of the data is valid. It is also important to ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to access the data.
