Description: Profiles: Admin.data/structure for application area
Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples

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_SPF01 TYPE SPF01.
