EMCONTEXT 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 "Extended Memory: Active Contexts" 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_EMCONTEXT TYPE EMCONTEXT.

The EMCONTEXT table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Extended Memory: Active Contexts data available in SAP.
