KARTE 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 "Kanban Data Structure" 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_KARTE TYPE KARTE.

The KARTE table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Kanban Data Structure data available in SAP. These include BARC1 (Bar code for setting to the status 'waiting'), BARCL (Set bar code to empty), BARC3 (Bar code for setting to the status 'In process'), BARCA (Bar code for setting to in process / in transit).. 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. .
