How do you inspect variable values during debugging in ABAP?
Once execution is paused at a breakpoint, the ABAP debugger provides several ways to view a variable's current value, ranging from simple single-value inspection to browsing the full contents of a complex structure or internal table.
// in the debugger UI: // - "Variables" tab: type a variable name to see its current value directly // - Double-click an internal table variable to open a table-browser view of every row // - Structures expand to show each individual field's value
For internal tables specifically, the debugger's table display lets you scroll through every row exactly as
it currently exists in memory at that paused moment, which is often the fastest way to confirm whether a
SELECT or a loop actually produced the data you expected, rather than inferring it indirectly from
downstream behavior.
