• Key Concepts: 
  An abstract data type (ADT) is a data type that is defined by its behavior rather than its implementation. It is a type of data structure that is used to store and manipulate data in SAP's Manufacturing Plant Connectivity and Orchestration (MFG-PCO) component. ADTs are used to represent complex data structures, such as lists, trees, and graphs. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In MFG-PCO, ADTs are used to store and manipulate data in a structured way. They can be used to store and manipulate data from multiple sources, such as databases, web services, and other applications. ADTs can also be used to create complex data structures, such as lists, trees, and graphs. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using ADTs in MFG-PCO, it is important to remember that they are not the same as traditional data types. They are more complex and require more thought when designing and implementing them. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the data stored in an ADT is valid and consistent with the application's requirements.
