A structure is defined in the ABAP/4 Dictionary like a table and can be accessed from ABAP/4 programs. Any change to the definition of the structure in the ABAP/4 Dictionary is automatically implemented in all programs.While data in tables is stored permanently in the database, structures contain data only during the runtime of a program.Structures are used in abap/4 programs to transfer data between programs as it is globally defined.Structures are used in particular for defining data at the interface between module pools and screens and for standardizing parameters for function modules.
