SAP COMT_ATTRIBUTE_ML Attribute GUID: 16 RAW Table data and field list

COMT_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 GUID: 16 RAW" 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_COMT_ATTRIBUTE_ML TYPE COMT_ATTRIBUTE_ML.

The COMT_ATTRIBUTE_ML table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Attribute GUID: 16 RAW data available in SAP. These include ATTR_DECIMALS (Number of Allowed Decimal Places for the Attribute), ATTR_GUID (GUID of an Attribute (16 Characters)), ATTR_ID (Attribute), ATTR_LENGTH (Attribute Length)... 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. .
