• Key Concepts: 
  Exception is a term used in the BC-ABA ABAP Runtime Environment to refer to an event that interrupts the normal flow of a program. It can be caused by an error in the program code, an unexpected input from the user, or an external event. When an exception occurs, the program stops and displays an error message.
  
  How to use it: 
  When an exception occurs, the program will display an error message that describes the cause of the exception. The user can then take appropriate action to resolve the issue. For example, if the exception was caused by incorrect input from the user, they can enter the correct data and continue with the program. If the exception was caused by a bug in the code, then the programmer can debug and fix it.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to handle exceptions properly in order to ensure that programs run smoothly and without interruption. To do this, programmers should use exception handling techniques such as try-catch blocks or error handling functions. This will help to ensure that any exceptions are handled gracefully and that programs continue running without interruption.
