SAP EAMS_S_SP_FL_INITIAL Structure for creating FL Table data and field list

EAMS_S_SP_FL_INITIAL 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 creating FL" Information within sap ABAP programs.
