SAP SAP Certifications C_ABAPD_2309 Questions & Answers

• Question 51:

  

  The "demo_ods_assoc_spfi data source referenced in line #4 contains a field "connid" which you would like to expose in the element list. Which of the following statements would do this if inserted on line #8?

  A. demo_ods_assoc_spfli.connid,

  B. demo_ods_assoc_spfli-connid/

  C. spfli-connid,

  D. _spfli.connid/

  Correct Answer: A

  The statement that can be used to expose the field "connid" of the data source "demo_ods_assoc_spfli" in the element list is A. demo_ods_assoc_spfli.connid,. This statement uses the dot notation to access the field "connid" of the data

  source "demo_ods_assoc_spfli", which is an association defined on line #4. The association "demo_ods_assoc_spfli" links the data source "demo_ods" with the table "spfli" using the field "carrid". The statement also ends with a comma to

  separate it from the next element in the list12.

  You cannot do any of the following:

  B. demo_ods_assoc_spfli-connid/: This statement uses the wrong syntax to access the field "connid" of the data source "demo_ods_assoc_spfli". The dash notation is used to access the components of a structure or a table, not the fields of a data source. The statement also ends with a slash, which is not a valid separator for the element list12.

  C. spfli-connid,: This statement uses the wrong data source name to access the field "connid". The data source name should be "demo_ods_assoc_spfli",not "spfli". The statement also uses the wrong syntax to access the field "connid", as explained above12.

  D. _spfli.connid/: This statement uses the wrong data source name and the wrong separator to access the field "connid". The data source name should be "demo_ods_assoc_spfli", not "_spfli". The statement also ends with a slash, which is not a valid separator for the element list12.

• Question 52:

  When processing a loop with the statement DO... ENDDO, what system variable contains the implicit loop counter?

  A. sy-linno

  B. sy-labix

  C. sy-subrc

  D. sy-index

  Correct Answer: D

  Explanation: When processing a loop with the statement DO... ENDDO, the system variable that contains the implicit loop counter is sy-index. The loop counter is a numeric value that indicates how many times the loop has been executed.

  The loop counter is initialized to 1 before the first execution of the loop and is incremented by 1 after each execution. The loop counter can be used to control the number of loop iterations or to access the loop elements by index. The loop

  counter can also be accessed or modified within the loop body, but this is not recommended as it may cause unexpected results or errors1.

  For example, the following code snippet uses the loop counter sy-index to display the numbers from 1 to 10:

  DO 10 TIMES. WRITE: / sy-index. ENDDO.

  The output of this code is:

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

• Question 53:

  

  (Sorry, we do not have a more clear image. If we have a better resource for the image, we will update this one immediately.)

  What are valid statements? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

  A. "zcxl" is a dictionary structure, and "paraml" and "param2" are this structure.

  B. "paraml11 and "param2" are predefined names.

  C. The code creates an exception object and raises an exception.

  D. "previous" expects the reference to a previous exception

  Correct Answer: CD

  The code snippet in the image is an example of using the RAISE EXCEPTION statement to raise a class-based exception and create a corresponding exception object. The code snippet also uses the EXPORTING addition to pass parameters to the instance constructor of the exception class12. Some of the valid statements about the code snippet are: The code creates an exception object and raises an exception: This is true. The RAISE EXCEPTION statement raises the exception linked to the exception class zcxl and generates a corresponding exception object. The exception object contains the information about the exception, such as the message, the source position, and the previous exception12. "previous" expects the reference to a previous exception: This is true. The previous parameter is a predefined parameter of the instance constructor of the exception class cx_root, which is the root class of all class-based exceptions. The previous parameter expects the reference to a previous exception objectthat was caught during exception handling. The previous parameter can beused to chain multiple exceptions and preserve the original cause of the exception12. You cannot do any of the following: "zcxl" is a dictionary structure, and "paraml" and "param2" are this structure: This is false. zcxl is not a dictionary structure, but a user-defined exception class that inherits from the predefined exception class cx_static_check. param1 and param2 are not components of this structure, but input parameters of the instance constructor of the exception class zcxl. The input parameters can be used to pass additional information to the exception object, such as the values that caused the exception12. "paraml" and "param2" are predefined names: This is false. param1 and param2 are not predefined names, but user-defined names that can be chosen arbitrarily. However, they must match the names of the input parameters of the instance constructor of the exception class zcxl. The names of the input parameters can be declared in the interface of the exception class using the RAISING addition12.

• Question 54:

  

  (Sorry, we do not have a more clear image. If we have a better resource for the image, we will update this one immediately.)

  To adhere to the most recent ABAP SQL syntax conventions from SAP, on which line must you insert the "INTO TABLE @gt flights" clause to complete the SQL statement?

  A. #15

  B. #4

  C. #6

  D. #8

  Correct Answer: B

  To adhere to the most recent ABAP SQL syntax conventions from SAP, you must insert the "INTO TABLE @gt flights" clause on line #4 to complete the SQL statement. This is because the INTO or APPENDING clause should be specified immediately after the SELECT clause, according to the ABAP SQL syntax conventions1. The INTO or APPENDING clause defines the data object to which the results set of the SELECT statement is assigned. The data object can be an internal table, a work area, or an inline declaration. In this case, the data object is an internal table named gt_flights, which is created using the inline declaration operator @DATA. The inline declaration operator allows you to declare and create a data object in the same statement where it is used, without the need for a separate DATA statement2. The other lines are not suitable for inserting the "INTO TABLE @gt flights" clause, as they would violate the ABAP SQL syntax conventions or cause syntax errors. These lines are: #6: This line is not suitable for inserting the "INTO TABLE @gt flights" clause, as it would cause a syntax error. This is because the FROM clause must be specified before the INTO or APPENDING clause, according to the ABAP SQL syntax conventions1. The FROM clause defines the data sources from which the data is read, such as database tables, CDS view entities, or CDS DDIC-based views. In this case, the data source is the database table flights. #8: This line is not suitable for inserting the "INTO TABLE @gt flights" clause, as it would cause a syntax error. This is because the ORDER BY clause must be specified after the INTO or APPENDING clause, according to the ABAP SQL syntax conventions1. The ORDER BY clause defines the sort order of the results set of the SELECT statement. In this case, the results set is sorted by the fields carrid, connid, and fltime. #15: This line is not suitable for inserting the "INTO TABLE @gt flights" clause, as it would violate the ABAP SQL syntax conventions. This is because the INTO or APPENDING clause should be specified as close as possible to the SELECT clause, according to the ABAP SQL syntax conventions1. The INTO or APPENDING clause should not be separated from the SELECT clause by other clauses, such as the WHERE clause, the GROUP BY clause, the HAVING clause, the UNION clause, or the ORDER BY clause. This is to improve the readability and maintainability of the ABAP SQL statement. References: SELECT - ABAP Keyword Documentation, Inline Declarations - ABAP Keyword Documentation

• Question 55:

  You want to provide a short description of the data definition for developers that will be attached to the database view (Sorry, we do not have a more clear image. If we have a better resource for the image, we will update this one immediately.)

  

  Which of the following annotations would do this if you inserted it on line #27

  A. @UI headerinto description label

  B. @UI.badge.title.label

  C. @EndUserText.quickInfo

  D. @EndUserText label

  Correct Answer: D

  The annotation that can be used to provide a short description of the data definition for developers that will be attached to the database view is the @EndUserText.label annotation. This annotation is used to specify a text label for the data

  definition that can be displayed in the development tools or in the documentation. The annotation can be inserted on line #27 in the code snippet provided in the question12. For example:

  The following code snippet uses the @EndUserText.label annotation to provide a short description of the data definition for the CDS view ZCDS_VIEW:

  @AbapCatalog.sqlViewName: `ZCDS_VIEW' @AbapCatalog.compiler.compareFilter: true @AbapCatalog.preserveKey: true @AccessControl.authorizationCheck: #CHECK @EndUserText.label: `CDS view for flight data' "short description

  for developers define view ZCDS_VIEW as select from sflight { key carrid, key connid, key fldate, seatsmax, seatsocc }

  You cannot do any of the following:

  @UI.headerInfo.description.label: This annotation is used to specify a text label for the description field of the header information of a UI element. This annotation is not relevant for the data definition of a database view12.

  @UI.badge.title.label: This annotation is used to specify a text label for the title field of a badge UI element. This annotation is not relevant for the data definition of a database view12.

  @EndUserText.quickInfo: This annotation is used to specify a quick information text for the data definition that can be displayed as a tooltip in the development tools or in the documentation. This annotation is not the same as a short

  description or a label for the data definition12.

• Question 56:

  Which statement can you use to change the contents of a row of data in an internal table?

  A. Append table

  B. Modify table

  C. Insert table

  D. Update table

  Correct Answer: B

  The statement that can be used to change the contents of a row of data in an internal table is MODIFY table. The MODIFY table statement can be used to change the contents of one or more rows of an internal table, either by specifying the table index, the table key, or a condition. The MODIFY table statement can also be used to change the contents of a database table, by specifying the table name and a work area or an internal table. The MODIFY table statement can use the TRANSPORTING addition to specify which fields should be changed, and the WHERE addition to specify which rows should be changed. The other statements are not suitable for changing the contents of a row of data in an internal table, as they have different purposes and effects. These statements are: APPEND table: This statement can be used to add a new row of data to the end of an internal table, either by specifying a work area or an inline declaration. The APPEND table statement does not change the existing rows of the internal table, but only increases the number of rows by one. INSERT table: This statement can be used to insert a new row of data into an internal table, either by specifying the table index, the table key, or a sorted position. The INSERT table statement does not change the existing rows of the internal table, but only shifts them to make room for the new row. The INSERT table statement can also be used to insert a new row of data into a database table, by specifying the table name and a work area or an inline declaration. UPDATE table: This statement can be used to update the contents of a database table, by specifying the table name and a work area or an internal table. The UPDATE table statement can use the SET addition to specify which fields should be updated, and the WHERE addition to specify which rows should be updated. The UPDATE table statement does not affect the internal table, but only the corresponding database table.

• Question 57:

  Why would you use Access Controls with CDS Views? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

  A. Only the data corresponding to the user's authorization is transferred from the database to the application layer.

  B. The system field sy-subrc is set, giving you the result of the authorization check

  C. You do not have to remember to implement AUTHORITY CHECK statements.

  D. All of the data from the data sources is loaded into your application automatically and filtered there according to the user's authorization.

  Correct Answer: AC

  You would use Access Controls with CDS Views for the following reasons:

  A. Only the data corresponding to the user's authorization is transferred from the database to the application layer. This is true because Access Controls allow you to define CDS roles that specify the authorization conditions for accessing a

  CDS view. The CDS roles are evaluated for every user at runtimeand the system automatically adds the restrictions to the selection conditions of the CDS view. This ensures that only the data that the user is authorized to see is read from the

  database and transferred to the application layer. This improves the security and the performance of the data access1.

  C. You do not have to remember to implement AUTHORITY CHECK statements. This is true because Access Controls provide a declarative and centralized way of defining the authorization logic for a CDS view. You do not have to write any

  procedural code or use the AUTHORITY CHECK statement to check the user's authorization for each data source or field. The system handles the authorization check automatically and transparently for you2.

  The following reasons are not valid for using Access Controls with CDS Views:

  B. The system field sy-subrc is set, giving you the result of the authorization check. This is false because the system field sy-subrc is not used by Access Controls. The sy-subrc field is used by the AUTHORITY CHECK statement to indicate

  the result of the authorization check, but Access Controls do not use this statement. Instead, Access Controls use CDS roles to filter the data according to the user's authorization2.

  D. All of the data from the data sources is loaded into your application automatically and filtered there according to the user's authorization. This is false because Access Controls do not load all the data from the data sources into the

  application layer. Access Controls filter the data at the database layer, where the data resides, and only transfer the data that the user is authorized to see to the application layer. This reduces the data transfer and the memory consumption

  of the application layer1.

• Question 58:

  Which patterns raise an exception? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.

  A. DATA: gv_target TYPE p DECIMALS 2. CONSTANTS: go intl TYPE i VALUE 3. gv_target -U EXACT (2 gcojntl).

  B. DATA: gv_target TYPE string. CONSTANTS: gco_string TYPE LENGTH 16 VALUE 0123456789ABCDEF*. gv_target = EXACT # gco_string+5 (5) ).

  C. DATA: gv_target TYPE c LENGTH 5. V CONSTANTS: ECO string TYPE string VALUE 0123456789ABCDEF". gv_target - EXACT (gco_string + 5 (6) ).

  D. DATA: Ev target TYPE p DECIMALS 3. CONSTANTS: gcojntl TYPE i VALUE 2. Ev_target -U EXACT #2 / gcojntl ).

  E. DATA: gv_target TYPE d. s/ CONSTANTS: gco_date TYPE d VALUE '20331233*. gv_target EXACT ( geo_date).

  Correct Answer: ACE

  The patterns that raise an exception are those that use the constructor operator EXACT to perform a lossless assignment or calculation, but the result cannot beconverted to the target data type without data loss. The following are the explanations for each pattern:

  A: This pattern raises the exception CX_SY_CONVERSION_LOST because the result of the calculation 2 * 3 is 6, which cannot be assigned to a packed number with two decimal places without losing the integer part. The operator -U is used to perform a lossless calculation with the calculation type decfloat34.

  B: This pattern does not raise an exception because the result of the substring expression gco_string+5(5) is `6789A', which can be assigned to a string without data loss. The operator EXACT # is used to perform a lossless assignment with the data type of the argument.

  C: This pattern raises the exception CX_SY_CONVERSION_LOST because the result of the substring expression gco_string+5(6) is `6789AB', which cannot be assigned to a character field with length 5 without losing the last character. The operator EXACT is used to perform a lossless assignment with the data type of the target field.

  D: This pattern does not raise an exception because the result of the calculation 2 / 2 is 1, which can be assigned to a packed number with three decimal places without data loss. The operator -U is used to perform a lossless calculation with the calculation type decfloat34.

  E: This pattern raises the exception CX_SY_CONVERSION_ERROR because the constant gco_date contains an invalid value `20331233' for a date data type, which cannot be converted to a valid date. The operator EXACT is used to perform a lossless assignment with the data type of the target field.

• Question 59:

  Which restrictions exist for ABAP SQL arithmetic expressions? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

  A. Floating point types and integer types can NOT be used in the same expression.

  B. The operator/is allowed only in floating point expressions.

  C. Decimal types and integer types can NOT be used in the same expression.

  D. The operator is allowed only in floating point expressions.

  Correct Answer: BD

  ABAP SQL arithmetic expressions have different restrictions depending on the data type of the operands. The following are some of the restrictions: Floating point types and integer types can be used in the same expression, as long as the integer types are cast to floating point types using the cast function. For example, CAST ( num1 AS FLTP ) / CAST ( num2 AS FLTP ) is a valid expression, where num1 and num2 are integer types. The operator / is allowed only in floating point expressions, where both operands have the type FLTP or f. For example, num1 / num2 is a valid expression, where num1 and num2 are floating point types. If the operator / is used in an integer expression or a decimal expression, a syntax error occurs. Decimal types and integer types can be used in the same expression, as long as the expression is a decimal expression. A decimal expression has at least one operand with the type DEC, CURR, or QUAN or p with decimal places. Forexample, num1 + num2 is a valid expression, where num1 is a decimal type and num2 is an integer type. The operator ** is allowed only in floating point expressions, where both operands have the type FLTP or f. For example, num1 ** num2 is a valid expression, where num1 and num2 are floating point types. If the operator ** is used in an integer expression or a decimal expression, a syntax error occurs.

• Question 60:

  In which products must you use the ABAP Cloud Development Model? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

  A. SAP S/4HANA Cloud, private edition

  B. SAP BTP, ABAP environment

  C. SAP S/4HANA on premise

  D. SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition

  Correct Answer: AB

  The ABAP Cloud Development Model is the ABAP development model to build cloud-ready business apps, services, and extensions. It comes with SAP BTP and SAP S/4HANA. It works with public or private cloud, and even on-premise1. However, thecomplete ABAP Cloud Development Model, including the cloud-optimized ABAP language and public local SAP APIs and extension points, is available only in SAPBTPABAP Environment and in the 2208/2022 versions of the SAP S/4HANA editions1. Therefore, you must use the ABAP Cloud Development Model in SAP BTP, ABAP environment and SAP S/4HANA Cloud, private edition. You can also use it in SAP S/4HANA on premise, but it is not mandatory. You cannot use it in SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition, because it does not allow custom ABAP code2.
