Description: Interface Parameters for APIs: BOM, ECM, Class, Variant
Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples
CAPIPARMS 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 "Interface Parameters for APIs: BOM, ECM, Class, Variant" 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_CAPIPARMS TYPE CAPIPARMS.
The CAPIPARMS table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Interface Parameters for APIs: BOM, ECM, Class, Variant data available in SAP. These include CH_OVRWRT (Characteristic is Overwritten), ENTRY_REQ (Indicator: characteristic is required/optional), VAL_ASS (Indicator: Values are Assigned to Characteristic), CH_VALUE (Characteristic value description).. 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. .
