SAP CORES Results Structure for Overhead Accounting Table data and field list

CORES 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 "Results Structure for Overhead Accounting" 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_CORES TYPE CORES.

How do I retrieve data from SAP structure CORES using ABAP code?
