• Key Concepts: 
  RAP determination is a feature of the BC-ESI-RAP RESTful ABAP Programming Model. It allows developers to create a RESTful API for their ABAP applications. The RAP determination feature enables developers to define the data that should be exposed in the API, as well as the operations that can be performed on the data. This allows developers to create APIs that are tailored to their specific needs. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use RAP determination, developers must first define the data that should be exposed in the API. This can be done by creating a RAP determination class, which is a special type of ABAP class. The class must contain methods for each operation that should be exposed in the API. Once the class is created, it must be registered with the BC-ESI-RAP framework. This will enable the framework to recognize and process requests for the API. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a RAP determination class, it is important to ensure that all of the methods are properly documented. This will make it easier for other developers to understand how to use the API. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all of the methods are properly tested before they are registered with the BC-ESI-RAP framework. This will help ensure that the API works as expected when it is used by other developers.
