SAP BSSPARA Posting interface control parameters Table data and field list

BSSPARA 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 "Posting interface control parameters" 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_BSSPARA TYPE BSSPARA.

The BSSPARA table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Posting interface control parameters data available in SAP. These include IBELN (Internal doc.number), IBELZ (Internal doc.number), USERN (Queue user ID / for historical reasons), HOLDD (Queue start date)... 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. .
