LTEXTRACT SAP (Extract (internal use)) Structure details
Description: Extract (internal use)
Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples
LTEXTRACT 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 "Extract (internal use)" 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_LTEXTRACT TYPE LTEXTRACT.
The LTEXTRACT table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Extract (internal use) data available in SAP. These include REPORT (ABAP Program Name), HANDLE (Mgt. ID for repeated calls from the same program), LOG_GROUP (Logical group name), USERNAME (User name for user-specific storage).. 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. .
