Hi

Interface means which helps/allows you to get data transfer from external systems to SAP R/3 or vice versa

Some of the interfaces are BAPI, RFC and IDOC etc

Dear,

Interface is simply a mean to communicate.

in simplest terms.

if we run a report from SE38, the selection screen which appears is a interface ( called user interface).

A interface is the one which is intermediate beween the two.

here user communicate with report program through his inputs.

In brodar term in SAp IDOC,bapi, rfc , fm are the other interfaces. But the work is same they all are interface.

reward if useful.

Reward all helpful queries

Hi

Interfaces

In ABAP interfaces are implemented in addition to, and independently of classes. An interface only has a declaration part,

and do not have visibility sections. Components (Attributes, methods, constants, types) can be defined the same way as in classes.

· Interfaces are listed in the definition part lof the class, and must always be in the PUBLIC SECTION.

· Operations defined in the interface atre impemented as methods of the class. All methods of the interface

must be present in the implementation part of the class.

· Attributes, events, constants and types defined in the interface are automatically available to the class

carrying out the implementation.

· Interface components are addressed in the class by
