Difference between Table and Application

Why do we need to create a application while we can directly create a table and add relevant fields to the list of the table by configuring list and adding up data which in turn will be able to create records. 

 

Any comments from anybody?

Because once a table is created, I can already search from the application navigator

Hi @Vivekanandan 

Table and application this 2 are completely different things.

We use table to store data and use further as and when needed but in case of application it contains whole bunch functionality, modules,pages ,portals,tables, ACL's,roles,groups and what not. 

We create application so that we can club together all functionality for particular process.
