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

CVAUTH_PERMISSION 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 "Authorization" 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_CVAUTH_PERMISSION TYPE CVAUTH_PERMISSION.

The CVAUTH_PERMISSION table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Authorization data available in SAP. These include TYPE (Type of 'Authorization Object': User, User Group, ...), ID (Object Name), NAME (Object Name), DESCRIPTION (Object Name).. 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. .
