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

KLAHD 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 "Class Header + Description + External Date Formats" 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_KLAHD TYPE KLAHD.

The KLAHD table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Class Header + Description + External Date Formats data available in SAP. These include MANDT (Client), CLINT (Internal Class Number), KLART (Class Type), CLASS (Class number).. 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. .

How do I retrieve data from SAP structure KLAHD using ABAP code?
