The SAP RESTful Application Programming (RAP) course is designed to provide learners with comprehensive knowledge and hands-on experience in building sophisticated, enterprise-ready applications using SAP’s new RESTful ABAP programming model.RAP is a modern approach to developing both transactional and analytical applications on the ABAP platform.This course will equip participants with the skills to design, develop RESTful applications, ensuring they are well-versed in building scalable and maintainable solutions in an SAP environment.Participants will learn the fundamental concepts of RAP, understand its architecture, and explore how to build end-to-end applications using this framework. By the end of the course, learners will be able to implement RAP applications in SAP S/4HANA making them capable of handling complex enterprise use cases.Prerequisites: 1. Basic knowledge of ABAP Programming: Familiarity with the ABAP syntax and development environment. 2. Basic knowledge of CDS views and OData servicesCourse Structure: 1. Introduction to RAP and Overview of the ABAP Environment: o Overview of the ABAP RESTful programming model and its components. o Setting up the development environment using Eclipse with ABAP Development Tools (ADT). 2. Core Concepts and Building Blocks of RAP: o Exploring the RAP layers: Projection, Business Object (BO), and Consumption views. o Understanding Business Object (BO) modeling and Behavior Definitions. 3. Data Modelling and Query Processing in RAP: o Creating and managing CDS (Core Data Services)
