PBMSG SAP (Internal structure for collecting messages (indep reqmts)) Structure details
Description: Internal structure for collecting messages (indep reqmts)
Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples
PBMSG 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 "Internal structure for collecting messages (indep reqmts)" 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_PBMSG TYPE PBMSG.
The PBMSG table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Internal structure for collecting messages (indep reqmts) data available in SAP. These include MSGTY (Message Type), MSGNR (Message Number), MATNR (Material Number), BERID (MRP Area).. 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. .
