• Key Concepts: 
  A Logical Unit of Work (LUW) is a concept in the SAP ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) that defines a set of related database operations that must be executed as a single unit. It ensures that all operations within the LUW are either completed or rolled back, so that the database remains in a consistent state. 
  
  How to use it: 
  LUWs are used to ensure data integrity and consistency when performing multiple database operations. When an LUW is started, all operations within it are treated as a single transaction. If any of the operations fail, the entire LUW is rolled back and none of the changes are committed to the database. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using LUWs, it is important to ensure that all operations within the LUW are related and necessary for the task at hand. This will help to reduce the risk of errors and ensure that the database remains in a consistent state.
