In addition to any known operands you can also use the LIKE operand in WHERE-Clauses.
A pattern in an operand is defined using the following wildcard characters:
- ”%” is any character string (including an empty string)
- “_” is any character
The pattern is case-sensitive. Trailing blanks in operands are ignored. This also applies in particular to operands of the type string with trailing blanks that are otherwise respected in ABAP.
