SAP CEST4_FLAG Assigned Characteristics Table data and field list

CEST4_FLAG 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 "Assigned Characteristics" 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_CEST4_FLAG TYPE CEST4_FLAG.
