Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples

COMS_ATTRIBUTE_ML 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 "Attribute and Language" 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_COMS_ATTRIBUTE_ML TYPE COMS_ATTRIBUTE_ML.

The COMS_ATTRIBUTE_ML table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Attribute and Language data available in SAP. These include ATTR_DATATYPE (Data Type of Attribute), ATTR_DECIMALS (Number of Allowed Decimal Places for the Attribute), ATTR_GUID (GUID of an Attribute (16 Characters)), ATTR_ID (Attribute).. 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. .
