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

DDSETSTATE 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 "Status of Objects" 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_DDSETSTATE TYPE DDSETSTATE.

The DDSETSTATE table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Status of Objects data available in SAP. These include NAME (Name of the ABAP Dictionary object), STATE (Status of the ABAP Dictionary object), L_A_START (Row Index of Internal Tables), L_N_START (Row Index of Internal Tables).. 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. .
