SAP PLAFR Planned Order Structure for Project Reporting Table data and field list

PLAFR 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 "Planned Order Structure for Project Reporting" 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_PLAFR TYPE PLAFR.

The PLAFR table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Planned Order Structure for Project Reporting data available in SAP.
