Answer / mansoor ahmed
The Domain specifies the Technical attributes of the field
such as the data type, length and the value range.
A data element describes either an Elementary Type or a
Reference Type.
An Elementary Type is defined by the built-in data type,
length and possibly the number of decimal places. These type
attributes can either be defined directly in the data
element or copied from a domain .
A Reference Type defines the types of reference variables in
ABAP programs.
