Definition

Field infotypes enable you to store information in individual fields that are used just once within the infotypes themselves.

Use

The decision as to whether to use a field infotype or a table infotype depends on the type of information that you want to store.
To help you make the right decision, compare some standard infotypes with the information you want to store and then choose the most suitable type of infotype.

See: table infotype.
