Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples

JCTAB 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 "Customizing tables (for transport, client copy,...)" 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_JCTAB TYPE JCTAB.

The JCTAB table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Customizing tables (for transport, client copy,...) data available in SAP. These include CONTFLAG (Delivery class), CLIDEP (Flag indicating client-specific entries), DEVCLASS (Package), TABCLASS (Table category)..
