SAP EVE_TS_OBJECT_TYPE Object Categories Table data and field list

EVE_TS_OBJECT_TYPE 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 "Object Categories" 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_EVE_TS_OBJECT_TYPE TYPE EVE_TS_OBJECT_TYPE.

The EVE_TS_OBJECT_TYPE table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Object Categories data available in SAP. These include APPLICATION (Evaluation Engine Application), OBJECT_TYPE (Object Category for Evaluation Engine), SEC_OT_ALLOWED (Allow Secondary Object Types), ICONNAME (Name of an Icon)...
