Hello Everyone,
As per Db concept, views are nothing but virtual tables and are not stored on disk.
Now whenever i access my studio under sys_bic schema i see column views.
Can somebody please let me know exactly where my understanding is not in sync with what SAP is trying to convey as it seems to be a little contradictory.
Also while modeling aren't we creating views?
So creation of views is nothing but equivalent to "create View" query in sql .
The content folder just lets us choose from which table we would like to create our view( i.e. in content we decide all that is in the "where clause" in view creation sql stmt .
When we activate this view or open the content by clicking on the column view in sys_bic it actually is created at that time only ( as "CREATE VIEW " is executed) as a runtime object and is then available in sys_bic schema . In this way the db concept of not storing view is also not violated.
Please let me know if my understanding is correct.
Regards,
Pooja M
