Waht are differances etweent structures and tables

plz answer this questions

Hi,
Basiclly, a structure does not have data and table does. A structure is a set of fields, and you can access that fields in your program using:
structure-field1 = value1.
structure-fiels2 = value2.
structure-fieldn = valuen.
So, you can not access an structure by SE16, it's not make sense. You can view the definitions of structure using SE11 transaction.
Also, structures cannot store group of records But it can able to hold a SINGLE record.
Whereas,
SAP table is a place where the data can be stored which uses any SAP structure.
watch this link from sap help also.

    Hi,
         No different, these are just transparent tables like any other. You can select data from them the same as any other transparent table.

  • Differrences between structure and table in data dictionary in ABAP?

    What is the differrences between structure and table in data dictionary in ABAP?
    are they same?

    Tables :
    1. The place where the data is stored so that you can retrieve at any time.
    2. There can be more than one record stored
    Structures :
    1. The data / info stays only during the runtime of the application and will not get stored at all during the run time ....
    2. Only one record can be stored at the runtime .....
    A structure forms the skeleton of the table.
    A structure comprises components i.e., fields. Types are defined for the components A component can refer to an elementary type (via a data element or by directly specifying the data type and length in the structure definition), another structure or a table type. A structure can therefore be nested to any depth
    Tables can be defined independently of the database in the ABAP Dictionary. The fields of the table are defined with their (database-independent) data types and lengths.
    When the table is activated, a physical table definition is created in the database for the table definition stored in the ABAP Dictionary. The table definition is translated from the ABAP Dictionary to a definition of the particular database.

  • What are the delta mechanisms and tables used for  Lo Extraction & COPA

    Hi all
    what are the delta mechanisms and tables used for  Lo Extraction & COPA.
    please explain clealry.
    Thanks & Regards,
    James

    James,
    Please go through Roberto's weblog :
    /people/sap.user72/blog/2005/02/14/logistic-cockpit--when-you-need-more--first-option-enhance-it
    Anyways,
    As you know LO cockpit consists of different modules(MM, PP, SD, etc)
    They are called appl components. Each of them have a number (eg.MM=02) and for each appl comp they might be different Data sources and for each DS they might be different tables. So, unless you be specific we cant tell a specific table for a DS.
    coming to the delta mechanisms, there are " direct delta, queqed delta and serialized delta".
    Copa is based on the oepration concern. it can be created on " accouting based" or "costing based".

  • Extractor andExtract structure and table Relation

    Hi All,
    Is there any system table which provides the Datasource/Extractor/ Extract
    structure and table Relation Information.
    For ex:
    Data source 2LIS_02_ITM uses following tables for data
    EKKO
    EKPO

    Hi Murali,
    I'm not really sure if there exists a table to give the information that you've asked for...
    Let me to tell you something to find out the tables referred in a datasource.
    Execute your datasource in RSA3 in Debug mode. This will give you the details of the tables used by that datasource.

  • Extract structure and table

    Hi Experts,
    How to know the fields of a extract structure are populated data from which tables?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Hi,
    Datasource / tables in the source system
    Go to RSA2 (DS Repository) in your source system and display your source system.
    If Extraction Method is 'V' - you are lucky and you see table name where data is taken from.
    If it is F* - function module is used, and you have to go thru its code to see all the tables it uses and logic how data is
    processed.
    Ext. Meth   Short text                                                                               
    V                 Transparent Table or DB View                
    D                  Fixed Domain Value                          
    F1                Function Module (Complete Interface)        
    F2                Function Module (Simple Interface)          
    Q                 Extraction Using ABAP Query                 
    A                 DataSource Append                           
    or
    Table ROOSOURCE in ERP.
    Relevant fields EXMETHOD, EXTRACTOR.
    IF EXMETHOD = V, EXTRACTOR is view or tablename
    IF EXMETHOD = D, EXTRACTOR is name of domain
    IF EXMETHOD = F1, F2 EXTRACTOR is name of FM
    IF EXMETHOD = Q EXTRACTOR is name of Info set
    OR
    Since you have the extract structure and the extractor, you must have some transaction like the Extractor Checker RSA3. If so
    then execute ST05, switch on the trace and execute the extractor checker. Once the extractor checker presents the results
    switch off trace. The clcik on Display trace and you will see all the tables that were hit by the extractor checker to
    retrieve data and present it to you.
    Thanks,

  • Colors are different between Lightroom and Photoshop Elements

    I have a new monitor and I have the SyderPro4 calbration software.  My monitor is the Dell UltraSharp U2713HM.  When calibrated with the Syder my colors are different when I go into different programs.  The same photo looks different in Lightroom than it does in Photoshop Elements. When I export the picture from Lightroom to Elements the picture becomes very orange. I have already talked to Dell and to Datacolor about my issue and they both are telling me this shouldn't be happening. When I uninstall my calibration software my problem goes away, and the colors of the images stay consistant between the two programs. Does anybody have any advice to what maybe wrong?

    I am having this problem too.
    my site www.redsmartie.com looks fine on everyone elses computer but on mine the red background #660000 is not displaying right on the jpg images
    see here http://homepage.mac.com/redsmartie/colourerror.png
    I have rgb colour profiles managed by a Pantone Huey device and haven't previously noted a problem. This was added recently so I recreated the images which corrected things on my screen but made the red around the images too dark for everyone else.
    The images were created in Photoshop so I changed the photoshop profile back to CinemaDisplay that it previously was on and now everyone else is ok but my screen shows the red around the images much to light.
    I really need some help with this as its a disaster waiting to happen on work I do for other people, especially if I'm producing work that looks right on my setup but is wrong for everyone else!

  • Structure and Table

    Dear Friends,
    Can somebody explain the difference between Table and Structure. In release procedure customisation, we define CEKKO structure (instead of table name) and field as BSART, WHY?
    Thanks in advance.
    Khalid

    Hello,
    The structure is a flat "structure", so it can't be used to stored the data, but only to manage the variable, so to define a work area for a program, for the dynpro or to define the parameters of the interface of the functions or the methods.
    U can include a structure in a table: so this table'll have the same "structure" of the structure (or a part of the "structure" of the table is like the structure).
    So the structure ia an easy way to organize severals data belonging to the same business.
