SAP REQEL Receipts of the Requirements Element Table data and field list

REQEL 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 "Receipts of the Requirements Element" 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_REQEL TYPE REQEL.

The REQEL table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Receipts of the Requirements Element data available in SAP. These include LFUHR (Time of delivery), OUTPO (Single-Character Indicator), JCPOS (Single-Character Indicator), TANUM (Transfer Order Number)... 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. .
