SAP DIOHFW_PROTOCOL_S Structure for storing protocols Table data and field list

DIOHFW_PROTOCOL_S 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 "Structure for storing protocols" 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_DIOHFW_PROTOCOL_S TYPE DIOHFW_PROTOCOL_S.

The DIOHFW_PROTOCOL_S table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Structure for storing protocols data available in SAP.
