  • Key Concepts: Single-record buffering is a feature of the ABAP Dictionary in SAP that allows for the buffering of individual records from a database table. This means that when a record is read from the database, it is stored in memory and can be accessed quickly without having to read it from the database again. This can improve performance when accessing frequently used records.
    How to use it: Single-record buffering can be enabled for a table in the ABAP Dictionary by setting the “Buffer” flag to “Single Record”. This will cause all reads of records from this table to be buffered in memory. The buffer size can also be set, which determines how many records can be stored in the buffer at any given time.
    Tips & Tricks: When using single-record buffering, it is important to consider the size of the buffer and how many records are likely to be accessed at any given time. If the buffer size is too small, then performance may suffer as records will need to be read from the database more often.
    Related Information: Single-record buffering is similar to multi-record buffering, which allows for multiple records from a table to be stored in memory at once.
