Hi Dev,

ABAP DIC ref is used when it is referring to any kind of Dictionary object like Structure, Table, Table Field

Object Ref --> describes the data type reference for the attribute, event, parameter or container element.

Hope this would help you.

For more better help press F1 on that particular options.

Good luck

Hello,

It depends on what kind of attribute you want to create:

ABAP Dictionary: the attribute's type will be the same as the database's field you select

Object: the attribute will be an object itself, for example, you can create an attribute of type BUS1022

Hope this helps,

Barbara.
