  Overview:
  The SAP transaction code DICTIONARY is used to maintain the terminology and glossary of an SAP system. It allows users to create, edit, and delete entries in the system’s dictionary. This transaction code is used to ensure that all users are using the same terminology when referring to objects in the system. 
  
  Functionality:

The entries can be related to objects such as tables, fields, and programs. The entries can also be related to terms used in the system such as “customer” or “vendor”.

It is also important to ensure that all entries are spelled correctly and that they are consistent with other entries in the dictionary.
