Creating Reusable Structures
Use
You can use structures in several different queries. You have to save them in the InfoProvider to reuse them. These structures are then called reusable structures.

When you use a reusable structure in a query, the structure is not copied, but rather the reference to it is.

Changes made to reusable structures affect all queries in which reusable structures are used.


To better distinguish between the two kinds of structures, structures that are not saved as reusable structures are called local structures. Local structures are used in only one query.

You can change local structures into reusable structures in any existing query by selecting the structure and, choosing Save as... from the context menu and then entering a technical name and a description in the Save Structure as... dialog box.

You can change reusable structures that you are using in a query into local structures by selecting the structure and choosing Remove Reference from the context menu.

Answer:
Hello Jumper,

The online help has 3 examples of the use of structures. If you don't understand these concepts and the detailed explanation of structures, I don't know where to start to explain it.
Try to work out these examples in your own test queries. For sure you will understand now what a structure is.
