ABAP Keyword Documentation → ABAP Glossary →UCS-2
Two byte Unicode character representation. In this representation, all characters are displayed using two bytes. The main difference to UTF-16 is that UCS-2 does not support characters from the surrogate area. The ABAP programming language supports UCS-2 in Unicode systems and hence does not support surrogates.
