Background documentationRepresenting ABAP Values in ST Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

Some ST commands require the specification of ABAP values dependent on the ABAP data type as a function of the type. In two cases, however, the value can also be specified directly. Moreover, the initial value can be specified regardless of the ABAP type.
