SAP WCSVAL WCM: Valid From/Valid To Table data and field list

WCSVAL 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: Valid From/Valid To" 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_WCSVAL TYPE WCSVAL.

The WCSVAL table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about WCM: Valid From/Valid To data available in SAP. These include TIMEFR (Valid-From Time for WCM Object), DATETO (Valid-To Date for WCM Object), TIMETO (Valid-To Time for WCM Object)... 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. .
