HOW TO CREATE NEW PACKAGE IN HANA USING HANA STUDIO

Types of SAP HANA Packages

There are two types of packages in SAP HANA; Structural and Non-structural.

1. Structural: In a structural package, the modeling content is organized in a structured fashion in a logical package tree. The structural packages only contain sub-packages and do not contain information objects. This prevents undesired creation of objects.

2. Non-structural: The non-structural packages, on the contrary, are not organized and contains both sub-packages and information objects.
