Description: SDB: Tasks

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_SDB_TASKS TYPE SDB_TASKS.
The SDB_TASKS table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about SDB: Tasks data available in SAP.
