SAP SIMA_BASE IO: Basic Data for Ins. Obj.-Partner Relationship in FS-CD Table data and field list

SIMA_BASE 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 "IO: Basic Data for Ins. Obj.-Partner Relationship in FS-CD" 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.
