SAP - Clustered Tables

Post by jzparad »

Does anyone out there know if it is possible to read Clustered Tables from a SAP application. From the small amount of documentation that I've seen, it seems that the data in clustered tables is compressed so I'm guessing the answer is no.

Can anyone confirm?

You can certainly read data from a clustered table in SAP although this might not be the most efficient way to go. It's generally only practical to do this if you have the full table key and even this will give slow response times due to the way cluster tables are handled in SAP.
