SAP ABAP Version Management

SAP ABAP Version Management.

In SAP ABAP version Management is very useful to keep track of the changes that you make to your program. Version Management helps in keeping a record of the changes that you make and in case you want to revert back to the older version you can do so by activating the appropriate version. Version management is a better way of trying out some change in the code and if this leads to undesirable results then you can go back to the earlier version. In case you want to revert back to the earlier version you need to re-activate it. Version management is also useful to an auditor to review the complete history of a program. The system administrator can view the version management to track changes in a specific time interval.
