Hi Mrinalini,

The difference between the Model & Meta data is:

Model data is the data coming through the table (which means it describes the actual data present in the table).

Metadata is the structure of the table (which contains structure definitions, type definitions etc.)

Thus, model data destination will fetch actual data while metadata destination will contain descrition of the data.

Hope this helps you

Cheers!!!

Hi,

Modeldata interacts with the application of sap ECC where as Meta data interacts with the meta data information like structure definitions, type definitions e.t.c

Model data used to retrieve the data from the tables where as meta data stores the information about table data.

Data type of model data is application data, data type of model data is Dictionary meta data.

Hi,

Metadata: Fields type/length , table fields etc

Metadata is the same for all users - that's why you should use service user - data is shared.

Modeldata: Fields value, tables value etc

Modeldata is specific for every user - that's why you should use the user credentials from the portal (by ticket, usermapping)
