SAP CEST5FIX CO-PA: Logical Object Level Internal (Standard Fields) Table data and field list

CEST5FIX 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 "CO-PA: Logical Object Level Internal (Standard Fields)" 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_CEST5FIX TYPE CEST5FIX.

The CEST5FIX table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about CO-PA: Logical Object Level Internal (Standard Fields) data available in SAP. These include PALEDGER (Currency type for an operating concern), VRGAR (Record Type), PLIKZ (Plan/Actual Indicator), VERSI (Plan version (CO-PA))... 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. .
