The CACO_SHARED_COUNTER table contains the list of the definitions of shared counters
of each charging contract.
The numerical value of a counter is not part of this table: It is stored in the COUNTER table that has a dedicated tablespace (COUNTER_DATA) to optimize the performances
of the SAP CC system.
The CACO_SHARED_COUNTER table contains also the list of pooled counters of the root
charging contracts that shared these counters with linked charging contracts.
