Definition

Logical databases have three types of nodes:

Database tables (node type 'T')

The table must be active in the ABAP Dictionary and have a flat structure. The name of the node must be the same as the name of the table.

Dictionary types (node type 'S')

The node can refer to any ABAP Dictionary type. The node name and the name of the structure need not be the same, and you can use complex objects as nodes.

Type groups (node type 'C')

The type of the node is defined in a type group. You must enter the name of the type group in the corresponding field.
