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

SMDATTRIBUTE 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 "SMD Document Attributes" 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_SMDATTRIBUTE TYPE SMDATTRIBUTE.

The SMDATTRIBUTE table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about SMD Document Attributes data available in SAP. These include DOCTYPE (Documentation Type), SMDSTATE (Document State), PRIORITY (Document Priority), SENSITIVITY (Document Sensitivity).. 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. .

How do I retrieve data from SAP structure SMDATTRIBUTE using ABAP code?

As SMDATTRIBUTE is a database structure and not a table it does not store any data in the SAP data dictionary. The ABAP SELECT statement is therefore not appropriate and can not be performed on SMDATTRIBUTE as there is no data to select.

How to access SAP table SMDATTRIBUTE

Within an ECC or HANA version of SAP you can also view further information about SMDATTRIBUTE and the data within it using relevant transactions such as

SE11 (ABAP Dictionary Maintenance)
