meaning of a component name when viewing table or structure

[OhMySAP]

All,

I am taking the structure SWNCGLSUBSPOP as an example here:

I was wondering how do you know what "PJBYTES" means? I tried clicking at the name and searching in general but couldn't find that info. I also tried looking in SE80.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry for the typo, I meant "PJPAGES" 🙂 Regardless, this is general question on any table/structure, if the Short description doesn't say much - how do you know what is the meaning of that field/Component. Whether it is "PJPAGES", "RESPTI", "TRBYTES" etc etc. Unless we have to go with our best guess, TRBYTES = Transmitted Bytes, RESPTI = Response Time etc.

If they're not documented, you can only guess by usage.

Would you know where this would be documented (any transaction/section in SAP GUI or webpage)? We can take the table SWNCGLSUBSPOP for looking at SPOOL data as an example. Thank you.

If they're not documented in SAP, then there is no documentation. Maybe SAP have some internally, but it's not available to us.
