Definition

In this field, you have to specify the name of the export file (Unix file) into which the created rollup records are to be written.

Before writing the actual rollup records, a nametab is updated which describes the structure of the rollup records. This nametab is useful if, for example, the rollup records are not to be imported again using the rollup transaction.

The nametab is structured as follows:

- X(4) (dummy field)

- TYPE(1) (dummy field)

- OFFSET

- FIELDNAME

- LENG

- KEYFLAG

- DATATYPE

- INTTYPE

You will find a detailed description of the non-dummy fields in the SAP Data Dictionary (table DFIES).
