SAP MSGOBJ_LOG Objects for messages in method log Table data and field list

MSGOBJ_LOG 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 "Objects for messages in method log" 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_MSGOBJ_LOG TYPE MSGOBJ_LOG.

The MSGOBJ_LOG table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Objects for messages in method log data available in SAP. These include OBJTYP (Object type), OBJIDINT (SAP internal object key), OBJIDEXT (SAP external object key), INDX_MSG (Index of a message for a method)...
