Hoep this info helps you. Assign points if it is worth. Thanks,Ramoji.

View: if you want to extract data from multiple tables, we use View. In this case atleast one field should be common in both the tables. Infoset: Using an infoset, we can extract data from multiple tables very much like a view but there is no need to have a common filed in both the tabels. generally in real time the functional consultant will provide the Infoset, you need not create it. Function Module: In case of Table, View and infoset, extract structure is automatically formed but in case of function module, extract structure and function module needs to be created. You can write the code here as per the requirement. Pkease assign points if it is helpful. Regards, Rahul
