• Key Concepts: 
  RAP BO draft action is a component of the BC-ESI-RAP RESTful ABAP Programming Model. It is a feature that allows developers to create and manage draft versions of business objects (BOs) in SAP systems. This feature enables developers to create and manage multiple versions of BOs, which can be used for testing and development purposes. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the RAP BO draft action, developers must first create a draft version of the BO. This can be done by using the “Create Draft” action in the RAP BO Draft Action menu. Once the draft version has been created, developers can then make changes to the BO and save them as a new version. The new version will be stored as a separate draft version, allowing developers to easily switch between different versions of the BO. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a draft version of a BO, it is important to ensure that all changes are saved before exiting the application. This will ensure that all changes are preserved and can be accessed later on. Additionally, it is important to remember that any changes made to a draft version will not be reflected in the original version of the BO until it is published.
