SAP ICS_NOTE Attributes of ICLNOTE Table data and field list

ICS_NOTE 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 "Attributes of ICLNOTE" 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_ICS_NOTE TYPE ICS_NOTE.

The ICS_NOTE table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Attributes of ICLNOTE data available in SAP. These include NOTETYPE (Topic of Claim Note), COMCAT (Category of Communication), COMTYPE (Communication Type Key), XTELFLAG (Outbound Telephone Note)... 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. .
