Definition

The names of the fields of a view can be assigned as required.

Only these names are meaningful for direct access to the view and for use in ABAP programs. The names of the Basis fields are no longer of importance.

It is usually advisable to give the view field exactly the same name as the corresponding Basis field.

Several Basis fields with the same name might have to be included for views with several Basis tables. In this case at least one field must be renamed.
