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

SWD_API_WIS 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 "Work Items" 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_SWD_API_WIS TYPE SWD_API_WIS.

The SWD_API_WIS table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Work Items data available in SAP. These include NODE_WI_ID (Work item ID), NODE_WITXT (Work Item Text), NODE_STATE (Processing Status of a Work Item), NODE_STTXT (Workflow: Work Item Status).. 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. .
