DMU_TREE 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 data for display in browser (identifiable)" 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_DMU_TREE TYPE DMU_TREE.

The DMU_TREE table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Structure data for display in browser (identifiable) data available in SAP. These include TREE_ID (ID of tree in Product Structure Browser), PARENT_LEVEL (Next level up in Product Structure Browser), ACTUAL_LEVEL (Current level of node in Product Structure Browser), COMPRESS (Explosion status of branch in browser).. 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. .
