Table Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Each table has a name that is unique within the overall database system. The names of existing tables can be used to name result tables. The original tables, however, cannot be accessed as long as the result tables exist.

If a table name was defined without an owner, the catalog sections (part catalogs) are searched in the following order to locate the specified table name:

  1. Catalog part of the current owner
  2. Set of PUBLIC synonyms
  3. Catalog part of the DBA who created the current user
  4. Catalog part of the SYSDBA
  5. Catalog part of the owner of the system tables

A table of another user can only be used if the relevant privileges have been granted.
