Structures dont store data.

Find out the filed names by going to technical settings and check for tables with where used etc and find the relevant tables.

Hope this helps!

Hi Rasheed,

You need to search for the tables based on the fields as you can not get data from structures.

hi,

structure is the pure description of the table, it has no memory to store values physically. these are exisit in dictionary level only. we can't store values in structure physicallay.

you want to extract data related to structure, first find the table related to that particuller structure and extract data.

Hi,

There are several ways to find the tables:

1) Choose the data elements that the structure fields belong to - do a 'Where User' in SE11 to see any tables - check using SE16.

2) Use ST05 and or SE30 to trace the transaction and see what tables are being read.

3) In many areas there are Function Modules that does these reads - could you please provide more details of the area you are trying to get data from?
