SAP CFBFO01 Transfer str. for data-recall structure table Table data and field list

CFBFO01 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 "Transfer str. for data-recall structure table" 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_CFBFO01 TYPE CFBFO01.

The CFBFO01 table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Transfer str. for data-recall structure table data available in SAP. These include ELNR2 (Element number of a structure), SWAHL1 (Current sequence of dimension 1), SWAHL2 (Current sequence of dimension 2), DWAHL1 (Current sequence of dimension 1)... 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. .
