SAP CPETASK General CPE Task Structure Table data and field list

CPETASK 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 "General CPE Task Structure" 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_CPETASK TYPE CPETASK.

The CPETASK table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about General CPE Task Structure data available in SAP. These include CREATOR (Character 100), BIZOBJTYPE (Character 100), BIZOBJKEY (Character 100), ASSIGNEELIST (Character 100)...
