• Key Concepts: 
  Overwrite exit is a feature in SAP Web Dynpro ABAP (BC-WD-ABA) that allows developers to customize the behavior of a standard component. It allows developers to add custom logic to the standard component without having to modify the original code. This feature is especially useful when dealing with complex business logic or when making changes to existing components. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the overwrite exit feature, developers must first create an implementation class for the standard component. This class must contain the same methods as the standard component, but with additional custom logic. The implementation class must then be registered in the component configuration of the standard component. Once registered, the overwrite exit will be triggered whenever the standard component is used. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using overwrite exits, it is important to remember that any changes made to the implementation class will not be reflected in the standard component. Therefore, it is important to keep track of any changes made and ensure that they are properly documented. Additionally, it is important to test any changes made before deploying them into production.
