SAP CSLAF Field selection from CSLA for master data maintenance Table data and field list

CSLAF 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 "Field selection from CSLA for master data maintenance" 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_CSLAF TYPE CSLAF.

The CSLAF table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Field selection from CSLA for master data maintenance data available in SAP.
