E2CAWNM 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 "Master characteristic value" 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_E2CAWNM TYPE E2CAWNM.

The E2CAWNM table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Master characteristic value data available in SAP. These include ATNAM (Characteristic Name), ATZHL (Character field, length 4), ATWRT (Characteristic Value), ATFLV (Text string 22 characters).. 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. .
