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

SWACHGDATA 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 "WF: Change Data, User, UTC (Date + Time), Language, Rel." 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_SWACHGDATA TYPE SWACHGDATA.

The SWACHGDATA table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about WF: Change Data, User, UTC (Date + Time), Language, Rel. data available in SAP. These include CREATELANG (Language Key), CREATEUSER (User Name), CREATEUTC (UTC Time Stamp in Short Form (YYYYMMDDhhmmss)), CHANGEUSER (User Name)..
