  • Key Concepts: 
    Selection criterion is a feature of the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) that allows users to define specific criteria for selecting data from a database table. This criterion can be used to filter out unwanted data or to select only the data that meets certain criteria. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use selection criterion, users must first define the criteria they want to use. This can be done by specifying the field name, operator, and value for each criterion. Once the criteria have been defined, users can then use the selection criterion to filter out unwanted data or select only the data that meets the criteria. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When defining selection criteria, it is important to remember that the criteria must be valid for all records in the database table. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the criteria are not too restrictive, as this could lead to incorrect results.
