Hi gayathri,
We cannot say strightly that only certain componets only we have to use,
it depends on business requirement,functionality.
most frequently we use FBE,REFORMAT,ROLLUP,LOOKUP(LOOKUP_LOCAL),SORT(SINGLE OR MULTIPLE KEYS),GATHER OR CONCATENATE and if requires MFS.
Hope this clears u.
yuppy,
