Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples

SADT_MAIN_OBJECT 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 "Main object" 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_SADT_MAIN_OBJECT TYPE SADT_MAIN_OBJECT.

The SADT_MAIN_OBJECT table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Main object data available in SAP. These include NAME (Object Name in Object ListName of the referenced entity - optional), TYPE (Type (workbench type) of the referenced entity - optional), VERSION (WB object version), CHANGED_AT (XSD Time (UTC): yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ [ext.]).. 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. .
