SAP EAML_S_LFE_DATA_ALV Linear data for ALV Table data and field list

EAML_S_LFE_DATA_ALV 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 "Linear data for ALV" 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_EAML_S_LFE_DATA_ALV TYPE EAML_S_LFE_DATA_ALV.

The EAML_S_LFE_DATA_ALV table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Linear data for ALV data available in SAP. These include START_POINT (Start Point), END_POINT (End Point), LINEAR_LENGTH (Length), LINEAR_UNIT (Unit of Measurement for Linear Data)... 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. .
