• Key Concepts: 
  UPDATE is an action in the Business Object Framework (BOPF) for ABAP that allows users to modify existing data records. It is used to change the values of existing fields in a database table, or to add new fields to an existing record. The UPDATE action is part of the BOPF framework, which provides a unified way of managing business objects in SAP systems. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the UPDATE action, users must first create a business object instance and then call the UPDATE method on it. The UPDATE method takes two parameters: the name of the field to be updated and the new value for that field. The UPDATE method will then update the field in the database table with the new value. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the UPDATE action, it is important to ensure that all fields are properly updated. If any fields are not updated correctly, it can lead to data inconsistencies or errors in the system. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all fields are properly validated before updating them. This will help prevent any invalid data from being entered into the system.
