SAP BUSFVALUES Structure for determining field values per time interval Table data and field list

BUSFVALUES 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 "Structure for determining field values per time interval" 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_BUSFVALUES TYPE BUSFVALUES.

The BUSFVALUES table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Structure for determining field values per time interval data available in SAP. These include TABKEY (Changed table record key), FNAME (Field Name), FVALUE (Field contents of changed field), FVALUE_OLD (Field contents of changed field)... 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. .
