SWP_SNODES SAP (WFM: Node Definition (Without WFDKEY)) Structure details
Description: WFM: Node Definition (Without WFDKEY)
Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples
SWP_SNODES 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 "WFM: Node Definition (Without WFDKEY)" 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_SWP_SNODES TYPE SWP_SNODES.
The SWP_SNODES table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about WFM: Node Definition (Without WFDKEY) data available in SAP. These include NODETYPE (Node Type), PARFORFLAG (Flag for table-controled parallel processing), PARFOROBJ (Multiline container element), MIN_TOKENS (Number of branches necessary).. 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. .
