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

LTEXKEY 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 "Key for LTEX" 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_LTEXKEY TYPE LTEXKEY.

The LTEXKEY table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Key for LTEX data available in SAP. These include HANDLE (Mgt. ID for repeated calls from the same program), LOG_GROUP (Logical group name), USERNAME (User name for user-specific storage), EXNAME (Extract Name).. 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. .
