• Key Concepts: 
  Predicate operators are used in the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) to compare values in a database table. They are used to filter out records that do not meet certain criteria. Predicate operators can be used to compare values of different data types, such as strings, numbers, and dates. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Predicate operators are used in the WHERE clause of an SQL statement. For example, if you wanted to find all records in a table where the value of a certain field is greater than 10, you would use the “>” predicate operator. You can also use predicate operators to compare two fields in the same table, such as finding all records where one field is greater than another. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using predicate operators, it is important to remember that they are case-sensitive. For example, if you are comparing two strings, you must use the correct case for each string in order for the comparison to work correctly. Additionally, when comparing dates, you must use the correct date format for your database.
