Field Object

Definition

The field object, for example, BUKRS for company code, is a field in the superordinate table object, for example, the Organizational Assignment infotype (P0001). The system first assigns characteristics to the field object based on the ABAP Dictionary . You can change these later by converting the field object.

Characteristic

  • Type (for example, CHAR)

  • Length (for example, 4)

  • Content (for example, 0001)

Use

Each table object contains a particular number of field objects. A list of all fields belonging to the corresponding table object is displayed. The Interface Toolbox creates the list using the structure assigned to the table object from the ABAP Dictionary . From this list you can select all the field objects whose data you want to export.
