SAP RDDEFDATES Default: Date Fields Table data and field list

RDDEFDATES 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 "Default: Date Fields" 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_RDDEFDATES TYPE RDDEFDATES.

The RDDEFDATES table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Default: Date Fields data available in SAP. These include DLASTFP (Last Full Payment), NEXT_PDUED (Next Payment Due Date), NEXT_SCHP (Next Scheduled Payment (Date)), DLASTP (Last Payment)... 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. .
