SAP FRMLS_EXPL_BASICS Basic Information for Exploded Formula Table data and field list

FRMLS_EXPL_BASICS 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 "Basic Information for Exploded Formula" 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_FRMLS_EXPL_BASICS TYPE FRMLS_EXPL_BASICS.

The FRMLS_EXPL_BASICS table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Basic Information for Exploded Formula data available in SAP. These include EXPL_STAGE (Explosion Level), RCP_GUID (Internal Identification for PVS Objects), RCP_NAM (Complete Key of an Object Version), STAGE_GUID (Internal Identification for PVS Objects)... 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. .
