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

VEPWE 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 "Shipping Unit, Item Data, Goods Receipt" 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_VEPWE TYPE VEPWE.

The VEPWE table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Shipping Unit, Item Data, Goods Receipt data available in SAP. These include VEPOS (Handling Unit Item), VELIN (Type of Handling-unit Item Content), VBELN (Delivery), POSNR (Delivery Item)..

How do I retrieve data from SAP structure VEPWE using ABAP code?
