Documentation

The following possibilities are permitted for secondary keys:

• Key components
  Components of the line type are specified explicitly as key components (explicit key specification).
  
• Line Type
  The line type of the table is used as key. This definition makes sense, particularly for tables without a structure, since no key components can be defined for them. Access to the table line of a structureless table is possible in ABAP using pseudo components TABLE_LINE.
