SAP WCSUPD WCM: Change Indicator Table data and field list

WCSUPD 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 "WCM: Change Indicator" 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_WCSUPD TYPE WCSUPD.

The WCSUPD table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about WCM: Change Indicator data available in SAP. These include LTXTFLG (Long Text Indicator), CATFLG (Indicator), UNTGFLG (Long Text Indicator), TGFLG (Long Text Indicator)...
