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

CORESSOURCE 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 "Resource Planning" 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_CORESSOURCE TYPE CORESSOURCE.

The CORESSOURCE table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Resource Planning data available in SAP. These include RKSTA (Cost Element Under Which the Resource Can be Updated), RESRC (Resource), WERKS (Plant), MATNR (Material Number).. 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. .
