SAP AUTHBIW Authorization fields for Business Information Warehouse Table data and field list

AUTHBIW 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 "Authorization fields for Business Information Warehouse" 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_AUTHBIW TYPE AUTHBIW.

The AUTHBIW table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Authorization fields for Business Information Warehouse data available in SAP. These include RSADMWBOBJ (Administrator Workbench object), RSAPPLNM (Application Component), RSCHANNEL (Channel in the InfoCatalog), RSHIENM (Hierarchy name)... 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. .
