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

SWASTDTYP 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 "Workflow Standard Data Types" 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_SWASTDTYP TYPE SWASTDTYP.

The SWASTDTYP table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Workflow Standard Data Types data available in SAP. These include WFFLAG (Checkbox), WFBOOLEAN (Boolean Variable in Condition Systems), WFDATE (Field of type DATS), WFTIME (Field of type TIMS).. 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. .
