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

SPROT_U 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 "Log Generation Interface" 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_SPROT_U TYPE SPROT_U.

The SPROT_U table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Log Generation Interface data available in SAP. These include SEVERITY (Error severity(' ',W(arning),E(rror),A(bnormal termination))), LANGU (Language Key), AG (Application Area), MSGNR (Message number).. 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 SPROT_U using ABAP code?
