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

DB2IXINFO 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 "Index Info" 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_DB2IXINFO TYPE DB2IXINFO.

The DB2IXINFO table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Index Info data available in SAP. These include IDX_AUX_CREATOR (DB2 creator name), BASE_TABLE_NAME (DB2 long table name), BASE_TABLE_CREATOR (DB2 creator name), DBNAME (DB2 DB 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. .
