ABAP_DDIC - Obsolete Dictionary Types
The following built-in data types in ABAP Dictionary are obsolete and should no longer be used:
The replacement types DF16_SCL and DF34_SCL for decimal floating point numbers with scaling are obsolete and their use is strongly discouraged.
The data type PREC is obsolete and should no longer be used. In ABAP Dictionary and in ABAP programs, it is handled like INT2, despite the predefined length (2). The length 2 is relevant only for dynpro fields of the type PREC, which can have two-character positive values at most. The property sign cannot be set for a domain of the type PREC
The data type VARC is obsolete and cannot be used for new definitions. It was previously used for character strings with variable lengths. Existing data types with this built-in type can still be used. When table fields with this type are used in AB_SQL , the same restrictions apply as to fields with the types STRING and RAWSTRING plus LCHR and LRAW.



Latest notes:

These built-in data types must not be used in RAP BO entities.
