SAP E2CLVTX Language-dependent descriptions for char. values of classes Table data and field list

E2CLVTX 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 "Language-dependent descriptions for char. values of classes" 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_E2CLVTX TYPE E2CLVTX.

The E2CLVTX table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Language-dependent descriptions for char. values of classes data available in SAP. These include OBJID (Internal counter for objects in an SCE knowledge base), CHARID (Internal counter for objects in an SCE knowledge base), SYMBOLID (Internal counter for objects in an SCE knowledge base), LANGUAGEID (Language key)... 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. .
