SAP COMT_KEYTYPE_APPL Interface: Applications/Key Types for Generation Table data and field list

COMT_KEYTYPE_APPL 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 "Interface: Applications/Key Types for Generation" 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.
