Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples

SNEWREL is a standard SAP Structure so does not store data like a database table does. It can be used to define the fields of other actual tables or to process "New Relationship Type" Information within sap ABAP programs.

This is done by declaring abap internal tables, work areas or database tables based on this Structure. These can then be used to store and process the required data appropriately.

i.e. DATA: wa_SNEWREL TYPE SNEWREL.

The SNEWREL table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about New Relationship Type data available in SAP. These include RELTYPE (Relationship type), ROLEA (Role That an Object Takes in the Relationship), ROLEB (Role That an Object Takes in the Relationship), CARDA (Role Cardinality).. See below for full list along with technical details, documentation, text table, check tables, foreign key relationships, conversion routines, relevant tcodes and example ABAP select code etc. .
