SAT_TABLES SAP (Attribute Repository Tables) Structure details
Description: Attribute Repository Tables
Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples
SAT_TABLES 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 "Attribute Repository Tables" 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_SAT_TABLES TYPE SAT_TABLES.
The SAT_TABLES table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Attribute Repository Tables data available in SAP.
