SAP ESH_S_CON_BUFFER_WS Buffer for connector creation: Web Service Table data and field list

ESH_S_CON_BUFFER_WS 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 "Buffer for connector creation: Web Service" 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_ESH_S_CON_BUFFER_WS TYPE ESH_S_CON_BUFFER_WS.

The ESH_S_CON_BUFFER_WS table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Buffer for connector creation: Web Service data available in SAP.
