DBPARSDB 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 "Database Parameters: Values and Properties" 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_DBPARSDB TYPE DBPARSDB.

The DBPARSDB table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Database Parameters: Values and Properties data available in SAP. These include VALUE (SAP DB: Database parameter value), DATE (SAP DB: Date of Last Parameter Change), HELP (SAP DB: Help for database parameters), GROUP (SAP DB: Database parameter group).. 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. .
