Definition

The reference structure is used to transfer fields that dependent on the object type. This occurs for function modules that can be called generically but that deliver object type-dependent data (such as OBJECT_KEY_GET). The reference structure must contain all the fields enterted as key fields in the object type definition (table TBO00).

The reference structure may also cotain other fields. The sequence of the fields is unimportant. If the names of the key fields for the objkect type definition are the same as the names of the fields in the entity table, then you can use the entity table as the reference structure.

We recommend that you do not use the IONRA structure. Instead you should use a structure from the respective application.

Further notes

The key fields from the entity table are assigned to each object type. The names of the key fields made known to the object number management do not have to be the same as the actual names of the key fields in the entity table. However, the key fields as made know to the object number management must exist in the reference structure.
